Just ten miles west of Ocho Rios, Runaway Bay's stunning beaches see far fewer footprints than its neighbors. It's also removed from the cruise ship herds and pushy vendors. Perfect for those happy not to wander far from their resort, there are a few nearby attractions nonetheless. Bob Marley's childhood home and mausoleum is in nearby Nine Mile. Jamaican history is on view at Seville Great House and at Columbus Park Museum. To explore, rent a reliable vehicle and remember to drive on the left.

The driver and guide were nice and accommodating! I enjoyed listening to the facts as we drove through Jamaica. The luminous lagoon was unfortunately not luminous because the moon was so bright. A little disappointing but out of anyone's control. The rafting was very relaxing but the guide was a tad inappropriate and made some uncomfortable remarks. But the guide and driver made up for it.

Travelers should book this tour because Columbus park caves play an important part in Jamaican history. On May 4, 1494, Christopher Columbus arrived at the island of Jamaica. The Columbus Park in Discovery Bay marks the spot where Columbus is said to have put his foot when he first came to Jamaica. Decorated with cannons and maritime artifacts this small park is a heavy tourist’s gatherer from all places interested in the history of Jamaica. Columbus Park is an attractive three-acre (1.2-hectare) garden in scenic Discovery Bay in the St. Ann area. One of the most scenic natural harbors in the Caribbean, Discovery Bay was renamed in 1947 to commemorate the place where it was once thought that Christopher Columbus first made his mark on Jamaican soil. They also get a chance to hand-feed Jamaica national bird, the Hummingbird. They are tame enough to fly down from the trees and porch on your hand and drink nectar from you

The river and falls were breathtaking and we loved seeing the crocodiles and turtles at the dock area and holding a baby crocodile! Our tour guide, Hopeton, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We learned a lot from him and he made the tour very smooth. We highly recommend Hopeton!

This was an informative, interactive and engaging experience. Our family of 7, including 2 teenagers (13, and 17) had a pleasant time. There was not a dull moment. We got to learn how to make certain native meals and taste; It was delicious! We even got to meet Usain Bolt's aunt, she was so warm and inviting. The dance was fun, entertaining, funny and they welcomed our participation. I think I learned a few moves :-) The lucious vegetation on our ride there and back was refreshing. I liked that for a few hours we got to get away from the touristy feel of things a bit and experience how some of the locals live. If you are looking for something cultural and pleasantly interactive, then you have found the right excursion!
