Dunn’s River Falls & White Water Rafting Adventure from Falmouth
Travel along Jamaica’s scenic north coast until we arrive at the world famous Dunn’s River Falls where you can climb the falls and enjoy the park. Next, we will travel along the coast towards Falmouth until we arrive at a small dirt road that leads you along the historic Rio Bueno River in the lush valley. After going across the “Irie Bridge” and doing a small hike in the rain forest you will be given safety instructions, you and the rest of your co-captains board your raft and enter the fast flowing water. With your tour guide steering the raft from the rear, you use teamwork to paddle through the twists and turns of rushing white-water rapids. Finally, you will paddle to the beach where you can spend some time at the beach and have a cool drink at the bar before returning to your Cruise Ship in Falmouth or resort in Trelawny.

We had Donald as our tour guide. He could not have been more helpful. From the time we met, until the conclusion at the end of the day – he was awesome. By far, the best part of the day was the tubing experience. Very relaxing and soothing. Dunn’s River Falls was fantastic as well. Overall, I give you all a 10 for the whole tour. The only thing I would recommend is to give your customers advice on departing Dunns River Falls – as the vendors were sort of pushy – and it took forever to navigate the endless amount of vendors on the way to the parking lot.
Rest assured, I will recommend you on Cruise Critic as well as Trip Advisor. You will be my first call if we are back in Jamaica (as we probably will be in the future.
I was in Jamaica a while back and had a bad experience – you have more than made up for that experience and replaced it with wonderful memories.

Dwight,
Thank you so much for taking such good care of us in Jamaica! Robert, our tour guide was amazing! He went out of his way to make sure our trip was extra special. The kids especially loved when we stopped for jerk chicken, juicy patties and festival! It really made our Jamaican experience complete.
Also, I want to give a big shout out to Little T, our guide at the Blue Hole! He was super fun and adventurous while making sure everyone was safe.
Can’t wait to book our next adventure!

Hey Dwight,
The excursion was super fantastic. It was the best tour we have had so far. Eric the driver was great. Gave us tidbits of information about the city and patiently waited for us at our locations. The van was great. Spacious and clean. Eric even showed us the best place to eat. All around great person to talk and hang out with. We would definitely recommend this tour to other people. Would love to come back to Jamaica and do another tour. Beautiful city and great people.
Please thank him again for his service.

Hi Dwight,
We had a great time in Jamaica with Robert. He was very friendly and knowledgeable told us a lot about Jamaica how things are done as well as a little about its history, he was great at showing us all the local sites and our requested ones. On the way back to the ship even stopped and got us some of the local fruit to try. All in all a great experience, so much better than being herded around like sheep the way they do on shore excursions.
And as an absolute bonus the Air Conditioning worked great and no worries about the car breaking down cause it was so old.
So thank you and very much Robert for a great day and showing us your beautiful country.
Cheers,
Lauren and Simon E

Our excursion was very enjoyable. Our guide was EXCELLENT and even stopped and took us to some AMAZING JERK CHICKEN on the island of Jamaica. The bus was excellent and clean and perfect for our group of 9 people. DUNN’s Falls was VERY BUSY the day we visited but it was worth the visit. Thanks for taking us during the holiday season.

Eric Thomas was a great and awesome guide. He safety drove us to our excursions and was always there on time. I would recommend him to anyone that plans on visiting Jamaica.

Hi
Many thanks for a great tour! Of the 4 days of excursions we planned independently this was the best overall.
Steve our driver was there to meet us and we found him easily as per instructions. He was very informative and proved to be reliable and friendly throughout.
The Falls was a great experience despite being really busy. The guides were good fun and not too pushy when it came to selling photos and tips.
The rafting was ok but a bit tame. We were hoping for something faster and didn’t even need to have to paddle with our guide doing that himself. Still it was a lovely river.
Overall great service from Karandas and Steve and would recommend to anyone
Thanks again

Our driver, Robert, made us feel very comfortable. Robert taught us many things about Jamaica and answered our questions. He was very personable and we enjoyed our day with him very much. We never felt in any danger or in a compromising position. We super enjoyed Robert.

The service and experience definitely exceeded our expectations. We had a great trip and are so happy we used Karandas Tours. See below for my 5 star review I put in Trip Advisor.
We booked this online directly through Karandas Tours. I paid deposit through PayPal and paid the rest in cash when we got to there. We got off the cruise ship in Falmouth, followed the Tours Signs, right past the blue tents where everyone was lined up that booked to Royal Caribbean we went to the right and our Guide was there waiting on us. We got in a van with several other couples and then met up with our Personal Guide Willie who was with our family the rest of the day. Our family was the only one in the van. He did an amazing job giving us a lot of history on Jamaica, even pulling off the road a few times to show us things. He first took us to Dunn River Falls, he had a cooler with some water for us waiting. He gave us great tips on what to do and avoid at the Falls. We rented a locker for $5 at the Falls, waste of money, Willie said he would keep it in the van for us- we should have listened to him and took him up on the offer 🙂 He did keep our stuff while we rafted and it was all there safe and sound when he picked us up! He was waiting on us, with a cooled off van when we were done. We then drove to the River Rafting. Our Guide was Iotola- who was amazing as well. He also gave great info and then gave us a tour of the small falls at the beginning of the River Rafting. This was a BONUS! This was better than Dunns River Falls in our opinion because it was just our family, not so crowded , he took a lot of pictures for us. We then got in our raft, he joked with us, told us riddles and even serenaded us while we paddled. There was some friendly spraying of water on another raft that we came up beside as well. The rope swing was great fun for our teens as well as us. At the end we went to the beach where Willie was waiting for us to take us back to the boat. I am SO glad we didn’t book through Royal Carribbean. This was less expensive and I think a better tour! We felt completely safe and well taken care of. Thank you Willie and Iotola for a great experience!

Our Driver was Sheldon and I can’t say enough great things about him. He made our experience in Jamaica a wonderful one. Not only did he get us everywhere we wanted to go, he kept us on time so we could experience it all. And Olive was an absolute delight. She also kept us on time so we could enjoy every bit of our excursion.
Thank you for making our experience in Jamaica one to remember.

Hi Dwight! Sheldon “Charlie” was awesome!!!! He took really great care of us! Most importantly, he took really good care of our Mothers as they went river rafting without the rest of us. We felt safe and we all had an awesome time! Thank you so much! Send regards to Charlie from his friends in Florida! We will definitely be in touch with you when we return to Jamaica!
Thanks!
