The experience

The tour leaves Montego Bay in an air-conditioned vehicle and heads toward Dunns River Falls, stopping midway at Rio Bueno in Trelawny to see the old monuments of Christopher Columbus Park. This lookout gives a view of the Discovery Bay area and Jamaica's bauxite and alumina mining operations. A bathroom and refreshment stop happen on the way, so you arrive at the falls with time to settle in.

Dunns River Falls drops 600 feet in naturally terraced steps, and you choose how to experience it. Visitors who want to climb do so hand-in-hand in a human chain, guided by staff who know the route. Those who prefer to stay dry walk alongside the falls, taking photos of the water and the people climbing. The park has competent staff on hand, and the tour includes time to learn the history of the falls while you rest between activities.

The return journey to Montego Bay takes another 1 hour 30 minutes. The whole outing runs 5 to 6 hours from pickup to drop-off, depending on where in Montego Bay you start. An English-speaking guide travels with you throughout.
