We truly had a memorable experience. and got to our destinations safely! Erroll is a one of a kind guy, and went out of his way to provide a great time for our family. The only thing I wish we had realized was that for this price - the admission to other entries are not included. This was our fault for not fully reading and understanding - this is essentially just paying for the transporation to these places.

For those people that want to get out of their hotels and experience the authentic culture of Jamaica, with a blend of the countryside, learning the history of the Island, taking a tour of an iconic rum factory and exploring a hidden gem - a restaurant-bar built in the middle of the ocean, then I recommend this excursion to the Appleton Rum Estate and Floyd's Pelican Bar for you. I traveled with my family of four, and Errol our driver took us through four Jamaican Parishes (St. James, St. Elizabeth, Westmoreland and Hanover). Each parish has a unique history which Errol spoke about during the van ride; my mother and stepdad were very pleased with Errol's level of knowledge of all the areas we traveled through. Most of the ride was a bit bumpy because the pavement of the streets in the countryside is old, but Errol was quite aware of this and drives in a graceful way, circumventing any major bumps along the way. The price of the tour per person covers only round-trip transportation so you want to make sure you bring cash for the entrance fees for the rum estate, the boat ride to the bar, and for food/drinks at the restaurant bar. Each member of my family thought the value of the experience was easily worth the prices spent!

Errol was the best tour guide ever. He introduced us to the real Jamaica. He took us off the beaten path and introduced us to what makes Jamaica wonderful.

Errol is one of the best tour guides I've ever had. He gave the best tour of Jamaica that I could have asked for. I would recommend him to anymore. The tour of Appleton Estate was wonderful.
Not worth it. Misleading booking.

Did not include the actual rum tour was only the cost to get there and back…so the fact that is says Rum Tour is very misleading. Was disappointed in that fact. Also car rides was very uncomfortable aside from the roads being very windy the driver would do a lot of hard stopping with the breaks which made it a very sickening experience after drinks from tour.
Brilliant!
