What to expect
Itinerary
The excursion will start with pickup from your Ocho Rios hotel or the Ocho Rios cruise ship terminal into a fully air- conditioned van. From there you will head east of Ocho Rios as you journey though small communities like Exchange that are elevated up into the mountains.
Take in the spectacular view of lush and green forest and taste and see some of tropical fruits. On the way to the blue hole there will be a stop at the oldest hydroelectric plant built back in the 1930s. Once you arrive at Blue Hole you will be introduced to your guide for the hike up the many cascading waterfalls. Remember to get your body massage under the falls and to take beautiful pictures at the awesome blue pools. Swinging, jumping and diving into the water is refreshing but don't forget to explore the cave and rope swing.
After Blue Hole you will head back to the bus to go river tubing. The river tubing ride is approximately 45 minutes and allows you to catch some rapid rides but most of the way you can relax and listen to the birds singing. You can stop along the way for some jerk chicken or a redstripe beer and jump back on your tube for some more fun.

• Marvyn's Paradise Tours, Marvyn Gayle Boscobel, Ocho Rios 1876 Jamaica

The whole trip was a lot of fun and more then I was expecting! Jumping and swimming in the blue hole was awesome. I definitely recommend water shoes though!

If you’re looking for a private, family-friendly tour, look no further. Our driver Dalton was incredible, so hospitable. He showed us around the city, and kept our belongings safe while we adventured. Blue hole was stunning. My kids (ages 7 & 9) got to dive off cliffs, swim under waterfalls and even swing into the blue hole. The guides at blue hole and the river tubing both work hard so that you can enjoy yourself, so plan to have cash in the car to tip them. We were hungry after, so Dalton even took us to a local Jerk restaurant. It was perfection. Highlight of our trip to Jamaica! 🇯🇲Bksbrawla35

Marvin and his wife displayed the utmost professionalism and courtesy during my stay in Ocho Rios. From the moment I landed at Kingston Airport, they provided a well mannered driver to drive me to ochos rios. The ride was pleasant and informative, I felt very safe and comfortable. The next two days were AWESOME, I forget our tour guide name but he was GREAT. He gave us interesting stories along the way and stopped at spots along the way so we could actually taste the Jamaican culture. We did the blue hole (WHICH IS A MUST), the river tubing(which was a natural wonder in it's own right and relaxing), Dunns River falls, and a little shopping at the local stores. I will forever recommend this company whether it's for tourism or driving needs. Thank you for helping us have a great time in your country.chelly1043

This was an amazing day spent in Jamaica!! Our driver Shawn and our guides on the river and the Blue Hole were fun and so helpful. We were traveling with two teenagers and an 8 year old. All had a GREAT time! The people of Jamaica are so kind and it's been a tough year. It was awesome to be back out in the World. They were so grateful to welcome tourism back. Enjoy this tour! It was a highlight of our trip for sure!Nicole P

The Chukka gang, Courtney & Morgan, really made our excursion memorable! From the minute we got off the bus they had our party of 24 laughing and enjoying every minute! They led us to some waterfalls where we were able to jump and took pictures using our waterproof cameras. The videos they took captured the moment that we will cherish forever! They also gave insight into local happenings and Jamaica’s rich history while traveling to our second destination. The blue hole swimming spot was a great chance to photograph your brave spirit as you jump from varying heights. Followed by a river tubing adventure.Pamela_W

This was an excellent excursion!! Our driver Kenneth was amazing for the day! We started at Blue Hole and the water and views are breathtaking. We had our own personal guide since it was pretty empty and had the best clay massage under the waterfalls! Our next stop was tubing on the river which was nice and relaxing after the hiking at blue hole. Jamaica had a 2pm curfew on Sunday but we had plenty of time at both locations and made it back to our hotel by 1 pm. Excellent excursion and highly recommended.
