What to expect

There's only one way to discover the leafy banks and nature-packed shores of Jamaica's Great River – and that's by traditional bamboo raft ride. Glide down one of the island's major waterways to explore abundant banana plantations, experience a natural foot spa and enjoy a Caribbean lunch washed down with local liqueurs and a fresh pina colada.

Welcomed by your captain, you'll climb aboard a beautiful handcrafted bamboo vessel and push off from shore. Floating gently downstream, your skipper fills you in on the history of the area as you keep an eye out for wildlife – it's prime nature spotting territory.

Pull into the riverbank and you'll experience a natural limestone foot massage the locals call 'jungle socks'. Feet refreshed, you'll take a tour of a banana plantation before stopping for lunch. And after a delicious Caribbean feast, you'll complete your day with a sampling of local liqueurs and a freshly made pina colada.

Bamboo rafting & liqueur tasting - Signature Tour includes bamboo rafting, community tour & banana plantation, lunch, sample local liqueurs and homemade pina colada.
