A wonderful relaxing few hours, floating down the river on an inner tube. We DID get wet but it was fun!!
We went tubing down the White River with another couple on our day off of our cruise ship. We had an amazing time. The water was a beautiful blue/green and there were rapids (fairly moderate, but more than we had expected). You have a guide who floats down with you and keeps you out of harms way. It was only a 30 minute ride, which was perfect for us after having been to the Blue Hole (also amazing!!). I highly recommend this to anyone of any age.
The water was cool and refreshing, the guides were entertaining but kept the group together and safe and helped out when you needed it. It was a really fun way to spend the day.
This was a relaxing way to spend a couple hours with your spouse. However, it is almost in Montego Bay, so if staying in Ocho Rios, it is a long day.
Did tubing with Calypso down White River. Our guide Shaun did a wonderful job guiding us down the mild rapids and then justleisurely floating the rest of the way. We had pictures taken from shore which turned out great.
Vivian and Wednesday were awesome! Great river float. Even though it was a little cold, our guides singing and pranks made the day great.
We grabbed a tour at the port for River rafting and were taken by short taxi ride to a somewhat derelict looking area. However, we were introduced to three amazing guys Noel, Charlie & Osmond who were to be our guides and captains. What a great day we had. Two adults to a raft (one with the additional toddler) and off we set. The guides were great fun and full of local knowledge, stopping to pick different leaves and pods at the riverside to show us their local remedies and spices. The midway stop for a swim was memorable for the ice cold temperature of the water, which amazingly our toddler didn't seem to mind as much as the adults!.Ending up at the meeting of the river and the ocean, our guides duly stayed very close as we left the rafts to look at some locals selling their wares to make sure we weren't hassled. Such a fab day, will stay long in our memories.
Tubing down the river was awesome. Guide was very informative. Ziplining was lame. Mystic Mountain is much better for that
Just got back from a seven day cruise and the tubing down the White River in Jamaica was the highlight of the trip. It was both exciting and relaxing at the same time, as it had rained earlier in the day, so parts of the river were flowing quickly and other parts were a liesure float. I mentioned to the guide that the only thing that would make it better was a beer, so a bit later, we floated to the side of the river where Red Stripes were delivered, which we sipped on while contiuing our float. Ahhh, now that's vacation!
We took two rafts through Whites River into a beautiful swimming hole. It was so much fun! There was a shallow spot to jump in and swim in the beautiful warm water. Our guides were friendly and accommodating. Both my husband and I , and our three teenagers enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Thank you to Alphanso!
