The experience

You start at St. George's Market Square in the heart of town, where vendors sell fresh herbs, spices, fruits and locally made condiments. The market vendors explain how their products are made and what they're used for. This is where you get a real sense of what grows on the island and what people actually cook with. From there the route heads inland over the hills through the rainforest, passing through the middle parishes where you might spot the famous Mona monkeys among the dense green.

The tour stops at Marks Sports Bar before reaching Annandale Falls, where you can sample the island's rum punch and browse a spice garden on the grounds. At Annandale itself, the waterfall drops into a pool where you can swim or wade. The restaurant and bar there let you sit and take in the setting if you prefer not to get in the water. You'll also visit Grand Etang Lake, set in the lush tropical landscape in the middle of the island. A final stop at a shop lets you pick up hand-made souvenirs (clothing, bags, jewelry, packaged spices, chocolates), while an in-house guide walks you through the history and craftsmanship.

The guide stays with you the whole time and keeps the experience interactive during the drive and at each stop. If you'd rather have quiet time, that's fine too. Air-conditioned transport picks you up from your hotel or port and brings you back, and the tour includes all entrance fees, bottled water and soda.
