Re: Highlights Excursion From Mobay
I always wanted to see a haunted house and got my wish on this cruise to Jamaica. Our tour guide of the great house was Lavern and she did an amazing job. We got a good glimpse into the history of this colonial time property. The tour of Montego Bay and Doctors Cave Beach was just as good with Uton our driver as well.
We will be back soon!

Michael was our guide/driver. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. We could not have asked for a better driver/guide. I do not think we would have enjoyed it as much if we had not had Michael as our guide. He was very helpful, courteous and wanted to be sure we did everything we wanted to do that day. If in the future any of us come back to Jamaica, we will definitely use your company again and specifically will request for Michael to be our guide and driver. Many thanks to Michael for making our Jamaica experience memorable.

Dwight, First I want to thank you for arranging our excursion on relatively short notice. Second, I also want to thank you for arranging for Michael to be our guide the second time around as well. My family members and I cannot find enough kind words to say for Michael. He does an exceptional job and it was a true pleasure to have him spend the day with us once again. The first time I relied on your company for an excursion in beautiful Jamaica we could not have expected more, however, the second one was even more enjoyable than the first! Great job by Michael and my compliments for an excellent company!
Thank you again.
P.S. We will definitely contact you again when we make plans to return to Jamaica

We LOVED our tour. Our driver couldn’t have been any better. Very pleasant, and an exceptional driver, slow and safe. Very knowledgeable. It was VERY impressive that your company refunded our admission money when we chose not to tour the rose hall house.

Hello again Mrs Maureen,
I just wanted to share with you about the wonderful tour company that you run.. My husband myself and our son appreciate everything you did to make us feel comfortable. It was a very professional business that you run and we are VERY satisfied. We enjoyed meeting your son. He is wonderful. We miss him already. Your other driver that brought us back to the ship was great. Our son enjoyed exchanging riddles with him. We arrived to our ship in plenty enough time before departing. Thank you again so very much. I would like to share with you after arriving home this past Sunday we missed you so much that I am coming back with my friend for her birthday. We would like to experience your services again. It would be great to see your son again. Our ship is Carnival Conquest again. We should arrive Montego Bay again on April 18th arrivng port at 9:00 us time. Could you please send me your web site or could we just possibly just do the river tube trip then a little shopping or just back to the ship. If you have a price for your repeat customers please let me know. We will be visiting again in the summer as well I look forward to hearing from you God Bless — Karandas Tours

Thank you for the followup email. We had the best excursion experience. Our driver and guide was promptly at the required pickup location. The Montego Bay pier information desk staff helped us get connected. The transportation van quality was good and appreciated the air conditioner availability. We thank you for taking us to Rose Hall. It was all we could have wanted and more from this excursion. I was so glad we had such a friendly and outgoing driver/guide. We adored chatting with him throughout the day. We learned a lot about Montego Bay development and the government initiatives. I was delighted I had an lengthy opportunity to swim at Doctor’s Cave beach and shop at the craft market for my little paintings. Please thank our driver , he did an excellent job. Definitely will recommend him and your services to our friends that travel to the area. We hope to use your services again in the future. Nadine

Hi Dwight,
I’m so glad you contacted me. We had a wonderful time in MoBay and our driver Willie was great! He was very good at telling us about the island and answering our questions. His patience with the senior members of our party was a pleasure to see. When some of our party wanted to stop for coffee and rum, he took us to a local supermarket and helped with getting us the right prices. At lunch he took us to Scotchies and explained all the dishes to us and helped us to order. All in all we were extremely pleased with how Willie took care of us. In fact, both my parents said MoBay was their favorite stop and talked about Willie the rest of the cruise!
You can be sure I will be singing Willie’s praises to anyone who will listen. My husband and I are already looking into returning to Jamaica and I will definitely be contacting Karandas Tours.
Thank you for helping make Jamaica such a wonderful experience for us and tell Willie to remember the flies! (He’ll know what I’m talking about.)

Thanks you for your email. First off, I would like to say that I am a Travel Agent for Expedia and send hundreds of clients each year to Jamaica. I have a soft spot in my heart for Jamaica since I married my husband there in 2002.
With that said, I am on the constant look out for excellent private tour operators that offer excellent experiences for my own personal use as well as the use of my clients. This was my first experience with Karandas Tours and it most certainly will NOT be my last. Our experience with Uton, our tour conductor, was absolutely professional, stellar and memorable. He answered all of our questions and made sure we had the tour that we wanted!
We first were taken to the Rose Hall and Uton took care of our tickets and linked us to our private tour guide. This was an EXCELLENT experience. Our group of 5 felt so special as if we had a private tour arranged – which we did thanks to Karandas Tours and Uton – and had the tour guide all to ourselves. While touring the property, we witnessed masses of cruise ship tours and we found ourselves very glad that we were not with them and had our own private experience!
Uton waited patiently while we bought items from the gifts shop and then we were on our way to the White White Witch Golf course and other scenic places and affluent areas of the Montego Bay area.
As a real treat, Uton then took us to Scothies for lunch … we begged him to join us and we would pay for his lunch, but he would not:(.We had the jerk chicken, pork, snapper and the beans and rice…it was FABULOUS!
What a fabulous suggestion!
While driving, Uton made sure he pointed out all of the important items as we drove by them and then he honored our wishes of returning to the ship without beach time of Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville time … we were stuffed from lunch and tired.
Again, Uton did an excellent job. We were cruising with a group of 60 on the Carnival Magic and I have 2 more groups booked on the Magic this year that I will be sending and I will HIGHLY recommend your tour company and Uton. I came away from Jamaica wanting to return soon due to the fabulous experience we had with Karandas Tours and Uton! My 18 year old son loved the tour so much, he personally tipped Uton $40 of his own hard earned tip Money from waiting tables in a restaurant back in the States.
Thank you so much for making our stop in Jamaica so memorable and positive! We will be back and I will refer all my travel clients whether they are travelling by land or sea to Karandas Tours going forward!
All the best!
