Montego Bay Highlights Excursion

This tour begins as you are met by our friendly driver/guide at your cruise ship pier and taken for sights of Montego Bay which is also called the second city and Jamaica's tourism capital by many Jamaicans.

On this tour you will get to see Jamaica's past, city life, spectacular residential areas and five star Resorts. We transport you in clean air-conditioned mini vans or buses with guides who are trained by the J.T.B. ( Jamaica Tourist board). Our guides are friendly, professional, willing to ensure your safety, comfort, enjoyment at all times and will get you back to your ship safely and on time.

We recognize that each group has different needs and our guides are sensitive to your needs, flexible and will make adjustments if necessary to customize your tour.

As we head east we will pass along the fringes of Montego Bay. We will head up the hill on "top road" you will get to look down and see sections of downtown, the "Hip Strip" and your cruise ship in port. We will descend just outside of the Montego Bay International airport and follow the coast to the Rose Hall Great House. You will then be greeted by tour guides and taken on a tour of the property. The legend surrounding Rose Hall and its infamous owner, Annie Palmer, also known as "The White Witch of Rose Hall," is one that has fascinated generations of island natives and visitors alike. It is a story with all the elements of an engaging novel: a beautiful heroine, unrequited love, black magic and revenge - all set in a gracious old plantation tucked amid the green hills of Jamaica. One of the most impressive buildings on the property, the Great House, was built in 1770 by John Palmer and his wife, Rosa. After the couple passed away in 1790, the property went through many hands until finally ending up the residence of John Palmer's grand nephew, John Rose Palmer. In 1820, John Rose Palmer married, Annie, a beautiful but feisty English girl. Little did he know that his young wife possessed "black magic" powers that would eventually lead to his demise. During her reign as mistress of the plantation, Annie did away with two more husbands and countless lovers.

Of course, the meting out of such undeserved cruelty had its price: in 1831, Annie was found dead in her bedroom at The Great House. After your tour of the Great House, we will take you past famous five star Resorts and through Spring Farm - an upscale neighborhood on the outskirts of Montego Bay where you can see a magnificent display of architecture. On the way down we will go through a beautiful drive through the woodland before we get to the main road.

Next we will head for the Richmond Hill Hotel which over looks the town and offers some spectacular views of downtown and your cruise ship in port. After you have finished taking pictures we will drive through down town Montego Bay to give you a feel of the locals before heading to the famous"Hip Strip".

The Hip Strip is the heart of many activities in Montego Bay for visitors. There is the Famous Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville sports bar and grill, great shopping, the Harley Davidson's Store, Margarittes, the famous Doctors Cave Beach bathing club all within walking distance of each other. You may cool off with a non-alcoholic beverage at Margaritaville and go down the water slide into the ocean and jump in any one of their ocean trampolines before heading to the Doctors Cave Beach for a swim.

If you would like to arrange some beach time, you can let your guide know and he will make adjustments. the entrance fee to the beach is only US$5.00 per person.

When on your tour you are allowed to customize it to suit your needs, if you would like to go visit the local Craft Market to purchase souvenirs or have some local Jamaican Jerk chicken for lunch before returning to your cruise ship, feel free to let your guide know. We aim to satisfy as you make the most of your time in port with us.
