Re: Dunn’s River Falls & Highlights from Ocho Rios
This was a nice tour of Ocho Rios. Our guide Shane was very funny and showed us many Jamaican fruit trees, told us about his country and was very entertaining. We saw different sides of Ocho Rios and tasted spicy Jamaican patties. Dunn’s RIver Falls was nice at the end too.
He picked us up on time and got us back safely on time ….very good experience!

We had a great experience with our driver/guide. He was smart, kind, funny and went the extra mile to help us make the most of our time in Ocho Ríos.
I know that “encouragement sweetens labour”, please say hello to him and thank him for making this such a memorable experience. Thanks to Steve, Ocho Ríos and Jamaica will always hold a very special place in our hearts.
Congratulations, Karandas Tours. You offer outstanding service.

Good morning!
This past trip was our second encounter with your company and we were NOT disappointed! Our tour guide was prompt and served us with a smile until the very end.

Hello,
Our driver’s name was Dexter I think. He was really nice and knowledgeable. He kept the entire group together and on time. Everything was really nice. The bus was air-conditioned. He stopped or slowed down to show us interesting things. The only small problem was that we didn’t actually have enough time to go up the waterfall. It wasn’t the guide’s fault. Dunn’s River Falls is something that I’d definitely do when I return to Jamaica not under the time restraints of a cruise.
Thank you, Nichelle

Hi Dwight,
Hope all is well, sorry I was not to be able to write you earlier as we just finished our cruise 2 days ago.
The Excursion in Ocho Rios was absolutely wonderful, our driver Uton( the spelling might be wrong) was great, knowledgeable and friendly; very experienced, we truly appreciated his service.
I highly recommend to book with your company to all our friends and family if they go to Ocho Rios.
Thanks again for the amazing experience!

We had an amazing time in Ocho Rio! Our guide was knowledgable and nice! We had a great time with him and can’t wait to come back!

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our driver, Ryan Smith, made us feel like family immediately. He was very patient with our large group of 14 and answered all of our questions- even the small, silly ones from the kids. He gave us tons of information during our tour and kept us on time. He went above and beyond! I highly recommend booking with this company when visiting Jamaica! We definitely will if we ever return. Thank You!

Dwight,
We want to thank you for such an enjoyable day in Ocho Rios on February 14, 2017! We didn’t realize when we booked our tour that we would have a private car and driver for just our family of four. It was an amazing day! You made us feel like family from the very beginning and went above and beyond to meet our every request. We saw Fern Gully, drove to the Ocho Rios lookout and climbed Dunn River Falls. This port of call was even better than we had expected. Thanks for taking us to the Jerk Centre for some Jerk Chicken and Festival. If we are ever back in Jamaica again, we will definitely request to have you as our guide. You made our Jamaica experience even more special! I would highly recommend friends to hire you and your company for any Ocho Rios excursions!
Sincerely!

Our driver was Steve. He was great. Very friendly and fun to be around. We liked the tour through Jamaica and my grandson liked seeing the way people there make their living. Dunn’s river falls was nice but we all enjoyed the tour better. Thank you for showing us the culture of the island.

Good Morning,
Our tour was AMAZING. Dexter was very patient with us since we had a large group he schooled us on how to interact with the vendors. He provided us with much history on the tour. He took his job very serious and made us feel welcomed and right at home on the island. We were welcomed and felt the love from everyone we encountered on our tour. We cleaned out all of our trash on the van and he was shocked and said that had never happened and he said he would have cleaned it up. He even warned us of the statues on the tour that were inappropriate for our children way before we entered fern gulley. Thanks so much for everything wish I was back on the island and not home in the states. I appreciate your service and I will be on trip advisor leaving great reviews. The next time we are on the island I will make sure we use your services again.

Our tour with Willie was great. The White River tubing was both thrilling and relaxing. Lunch at Jerk Central was excellent, as was the music. Then Dunn’s River falls provided a beautiful conclusion to a fun filled day. Along the way, Willie gave us insight into local life, and showed us a bit of the local sights, hats off to you and Willie.

Dwight,
Thank you for your help on the tour. I am sure that the group had a great time. I have not have the chance to go over the tour with my group leader yet, however, I am confident that it will be a great review. Thank you for your help with our group, we look forward to working with you again in the near future.

Hi Dwight,
We absolutely loved our experience.
Our driver was super nice, informative, knowledgeable and made us feel at home…took our suggestions and got us back on time for our cruise after a great tour of the city and the Falls!
We would highly recommend anyone taking the tour with your team, visiting Jamaica maan! 🙂
Thanks

Dwight,
Our guide Uton was excellent. He provide a great history of your nation, as well as answering our many questions in a professional manner. He drove safely and provided us with regular photo taking opportunities. He delivered us safely to Konoko gardens, Dunn’s River Falls and to the Ohio Rios Jerk House. He did an excellent job assisting with food orders at the Jerk house, and that was a bright highlight. He dropped part of our group for shopping and the rest at the cruise terminal. He took good care of the children and adults. We would recommend Karandas Tours to others and would consider you for a different tour next time we visit.
The vehicle was large enough for our group of 15, but just barely.
Thanks for the great visit.

We had a great time and everything went well. The drivers were great esp. Sheldon who went out of his way to get our food faster and help us reach our ship on time.
Thanks and will surely recommend you to others coming that way.
Tony C
Yes, our Excursion was good a experience. Our driver/guide “Dexter” was amazing. He took us everywhere and is a wealth of knowledge. I have already shared my experience with some of my friends and suggested your company and Dexter.
Thank you again, we had a great time.

Had a great tour, our guide Willie was excellent and in addition to seeing Ocho Rios we also learned a lot about Jamaica thx
Betty P
We enjoyed the tour that we booked with your company, in Jamaica. It wasn’t as long as we had been told it would be, but our cruise ship (because of poor weather) got to Jamaica a day early, so we “surprised” your group and I know that they were very busy so we appreciated them fitting us in at all. Our driver was very nice. Be sure to thank him again for taking time to show us around. We would book with you again and tell our friends also.

Hello,
It is my pleasure to give you feed back about our excursion in Ocho rios Jamsica. We had very good experience with tour and excursion.
Our driver was very good person and explain everything to us about ocho Rios. He never rushed to finish tour. He gave answers to all questions we had about ocho Rios. He showed us all fruit trees in Jamaica and we were so excited because we used to to see all these trees back home in India and we did not had seen these all trees in USA.
We will defenatly recommend your company to our friends when they visit Jamaica.
Again thank you for everything.
Jeremy R
Sheldon was great and very flexible. We had 3 different groups in the van and we all got to do what we wanted to do in the allotted time. Everything ran smoothly. I think Sheldon made the trip for us more than the sights themselves.
