Overview
Step off the beaten path and discover the true heart of Jamaica!
This immersive countryside tour is one of the best ways to experience the island’s vibrant culture, warm hospitality, and natural beauty, far from the crowds of the tourist hotspots.
Your journey begins as you leave the busy resort areas behind and head into Jamaica’s lush interior. Travel through the famous Fern Gully, a breathtaking natural gorge filled with over 300 species of ferns and dense tropical vegetation, truly a wonder of nature.
Your first stop is in the peaceful hills of Claremont, where you’ll get a first-hand look at everyday life in rural Jamaica. See how locals live, work, and connect with their community, an authentic cultural experience that goes beyond sightseeing.
Next, the tour winds into Higgin Town, where sweeping views of Jamaica’s north coast will have you reaching for your camera. Here, you'll also visit a local elementary school, gaining a meaningful glimpse into Jamaican education and the lives of the island’s youngest generation.
Your cultural exploration continues with a stop at a local coffee farm, followed by a visit to the St. Ann’s Bay farmers market—a lively hub of local produce, spices, and flavors. Don’t miss the opportunity to sample fresh Jamaican fruits or chat with the friendly vendors!
Before heading back, pose for a photo with the towering Columbus Statue, a historical landmark in St. Ann’s Bay. Finally, return to Ocho Rios, where you can choose to shop for souvenirs or head back to your cruise ship.
This is a deeply cultural, scenic, and unforgettable journey through Jamaica’s countryside—with plenty of photo ops and authentic moments you’ll treasure. A must-do for those who want to experience the real Jamaica!
