Stevie44875 Posted November 6, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I am looking for excursion options outside of Royal C, as they are an arm and a leg. Has anyone used someone else besides their cruise ship they could recommend? We have used outside vendors before at different ports so looking to see if there are any options here. Thanks!

mamajules Posted November 6, 2015 #2 Share Posted November 6, 2015 What kind of excursion are you looking for? I know Liberty Tours works out of all the ports, including Falmouth. libertytoursjamaica.com - you can check out what they offer in Falmouth. Ricardo is wonderful to work with. We used them a week ago out of MoBay to do the Blue Hole and lunch at Scotchie's. Fabulous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie44875 Posted November 8, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Thanks! Not sure yet what excursion to take as there are too many choices i have seen to narrow it down right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP350Z Posted November 9, 2015 #4 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Chukka Tours took good care of us. They have a nice website listing all the options. They work with several cruise companies but it us cheaper going direct. Also I've been really tempted to try a company called Island Routes. They also have a great website, nice looking buses and the coolest catamarans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotte Posted November 9, 2015 #5 Share Posted November 9, 2015 We've used Courtney Taylor and had a great time. We're booked with him again for next week. Basically $39/day per adult for transportation and then activities are extra. Last time we did Dunn's River Falls, White River Tubing, and Green Grotto Caves, plus a quick lunch stop. Next week we're going to the Blue Hole and Scotchies for lunch, plus whatever else we've got time for. You can't go wrong with Courtney Taylor!

TheGaDawgFan Posted December 5, 2015 #6 Share Posted December 5, 2015 We just had a great tour to the Blue Hole with Liberty. We did a private car, and it was very nice. Ricardo was great and so was our driver Michelle. I also recommend Romaine as your Blue Hole guide if you decide to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaroleSS Posted December 5, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) We just got back from Jamaica and used Courtney Taylor. We went to Blue Hole and tubing. While we had a great time, our experience started out poorly. We rushed off the ship so we could spend time doing our excursions and not feel rushed. The problem was that even though we had reservations, they failed to have a driver for us. We waited over an hour and only after threatening to simply find us a taxi, did they find us a driver. Other tour companies left as soon as the passengers arrived, but we were not. Once we were in the van, things went well, but our original treatment has turned as a tad sour on them.

andynapril Posted December 6, 2015 #8 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I can't seem to find the prices on the Liberty Tours website. Anyone know what the rates are? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaroleSS Posted December 6, 2015 #9 Share Posted December 6, 2015 We paid $39 per person for 4 people. I think they all charge similar rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecgator Posted December 7, 2015 #11 Share Posted December 7, 2015 We were in Falmouth during thanksgiving week and used Byron from island transfers and tours. They have a variety of tours option on their website and the pricing is better than the ship excursions (we were on the oasis), plus you get a private tour. We used him last time we were in Jamaica as well...he knows the area well and he even helped recommend excursions for us. He was waiting when we got off the ship...made it so easy! This time we went river rafting...he had also recommended blue hole which we didn't have time to go ...hoping for next time as I hear great things about it!
