Kingston Reggae Roots Experience: Trench Town & Recording Studio

Inspirational Knowledge of Jamaican History

It was a very personal experience. My son is very inquisitive and our guide was patient and allowed him to stop, take pictures and immerse in the culture that he finds interesting that many others may not. Leaving with videos and an audio track where my son was able to have fun while expressing how he felt the tour impacted his life. I’m having breakfast with my son the day after we went on the tour and he woke up saying he can’t stop thinking about the tour and how it changed his life.

Cultural Walking Tour of Kingston

Murals, music and Orange Street

Courtney was very understanding about our slight delay and then shared his deep knowledge of Kingston with passion and enthusiasm. Courtney provided amazing renditions of parts of famous Jamaican songs by artists memorialised in Kingston’s murals. A highlight was sitting in Leggo’s studios. Would definitely recommend!

Bamboo Rafting and Boston Jerk Centre Tour in Portland Jamaica

Rafting on the Rio Grande

This was my birthday treat for me and my family (husband and children and grandchildren) on my birthday. Strolling along the Rio Grande on a raft was such an experience for both my family of 6 plus me, we all experienced together and throughly enjoyed the raft, we got to a point where we could get off the raft and swim, it was amazing, our captain Rohan, he is so experienced, he made the rowing look so simple, he gave us some history also of the Rio grande we strolled for over an hour in the hot sun, we just relaxed as we were cruising along. A must for one to experience not just to see on TV or photos. Our tour guide Omar, well, he picked us up from our hotel, (on time…) which we were not used too, we weren’t even ready, he calmly waited for us to finish our breakfast and be ready to board his comfortable air conditioning mini bus. On our way to the Rio grande he explained the area’s that we passed on our way, again very knowledgeable, from the raft he drove us into town to the bank ATM, patiently waited for us then off to the Blue lagoon river, beautiful blue sea, again the experience was amazing, then off to Boston, (famous for jerk chicken , jerk pork, jerk sausages, in Boston, Portland Jamaica) there we ate jerk chicken (wow) a lot for the 4/5 hours, What a start to my birthday…..
