Planning a trip to Jamaica is an adventure all on its own. Due to the friendly locals, beautiful all-inclusive resorts, tropical weather, and amazing beaches, you are sure to have a good time. What if you want more than a good time? What if you want an adventure that you will never forget? Than look no further than Jamaica adventure tours.
So, what type of Jamaica adventure tours do you have to choose from?
1 - Horseback Ride and Swim Tours
For most, horseback riding is consideration a relaxing activity. For others, it is an adventure. If you have never gone horseback riding before, this is the perfect way to spend an afternoon. Riding experience is not required for most tourists, as you will receive a small amount of training ahead of time, be paired with a gentle horse, and have trained guides on hand at all times.
Horseback ride and swim tours come in a number of different formats. One company, Chukka Caribbean Adventures, offers tours in the Montego Bay and Ocho Rios areas. With this particular company, your tour begins by boarding a bus, traveling to a stable, and saddling up for the adventure of a lifetime. The ride portion of your tour will take you through amazing landscape. Before heading back, you are able to take your horse for a ride in the beautiful and clear Caribbean waters.
2 - Hiking Tours
A lot of focus is placed on Jamaica's beautiful beaches. Yes, they are beautiful, but there is much more to the island. That is why all tourists should consider a hike on foot. Explore the land of Jamaica. You will be amazed with what you see.
As with horseback ride and swim tours, Jamaica hiking tours do vary. It all depends on your location, the terrain, and the company hosting the tour. If on the western end of Jamaica, look for the Riverwalk Tour. This tour begins with you meeting other tourists, being picked up by the guides, and traveling to Bamboo Village. There, you will literally walk across the Mayfield River on a bamboo bridge. The rest of the tour involves a ¾ mile hike, lunch, and frolicking in natural Jacuzzi and coves.
3 - Adventure Cruises
When most tourists think of boat cruises, dinner and a night of relaxation often come to mind. Yes, these types of tours are available on the island of Jamaica. However, if you want an adventure, book an adventure cruise. With these cruises, you not only get a boat ride to the beautiful open waters of Jamaica, but you also get to enjoy other adventurous water activities. These may include swimming in the sea, snorkeling, and scuba diving.
If near Montego Bay, checkout Dreamer Catamaran Cruises; they are your perfect source for fun and adventure in the sun. Your day begins with a meet and greet from the crew, music starts to play, and you begin to let loose and have fun. Once your boat reaches its destination, you get to enjoy an adventurous snorkeling excursion. Weather permitting, they also have water slides and trampolines available. While enjoying a tour of the Jamaica coastline, you can enjoy their open bar.
4 - River Tubing Tours
When it comes to enjoying the beautiful rivers of Jamaica, you have many options. Scenic boat tours are available, but if adventure is what you want, opt for a tube or rafting tour instead. They leave you in control and you get a new adventure with every move, twist, and turn.
Chukka Caribbean Adventures offers river tubing tours in Montego Bay and Ocho Rios. You will operate your own tube, but have other tourists and guides nearby at all times. The different paces of the river will be an amazing adventure. If that wasn't enough, be sure to keep your eyes open along the way. Take in the wildlife. It will be a scene and adventure that you will never forget.
When choosing a Jamaica adventure tour, it is important to consider extra expenses. Always review your all-inclusive resort first. Most beachfront resorts have onsite activities, such as snorkeling, scuba diving, wind surfing, and water skiing. Do not pay extra for these activities, especially if they are already included with the cost of your stay. So, always check with your all-inclusive Jamaica resort before booking a vacation tour.
As you can see, you have a number of options when looking to enjoy a Jamaica adventure vacation. In fact, these are just a few of your options. Have you always wanted to feel like Tarzan? If so, enjoy a treetop canopy tour, which will literally leave you swinging. When it comes to Jamaica and vacations, your options are endless.
