Review of Jamaica’s private South Coast tour, covering YS Falls, Black River, Appleton Estate, Pelican Bar, costs, timing, and value.

“Driving through the countryside was really great, seeing Villages along the way. The rum tour was impressive, although I might suggest it's best to saved for later in the day rather than 9 a.m. 😁. The crocodiles were was also quite amazing, traversing an entirely different ecosystem. The Pelican bar is one of those things that is worth doing once, a cool experience but I don't think I'd become a regular. Cedric or driver was great. Informative, friendly, professional.”
