Overview

Mobile ticket
Our journey starts with a drive into the heart of the city of Falmouth. Locals are known to "mek fashion" with whatever food is in season, so you'll get to sample a variety of dishes such as ackee (when in season) & saltfish, crab/lobster (when in season), Jamaican beef patties, chicken patties, coco bread and beef with red peas soup. Throughout the tour we will discuss the history of the food, it’s current relevance in our society and the ingredients and processes we use to cook. We’ll also make a stop at KFC to try the most popular American fast food hotspot that has been adopted by the Jamaican massive.

What To Expect
A "road crabby" is a playful term used to describe a Jamaican roadside vendor's makeshift setup for selling freshly caught and seasoned crab. Typically found along coastal roads or near fishing villages, these vendors set up small, rustic stalls or even just spread out a blanket on the side of the road to display their bounty.
Our stop here allows you to sample the world famous Jamaican fast food that is enjoyed by locals as breakfast, lunch or dinner. Patties are a staple in everyday Jamaican diet.

Just book the tour - you won’t be sorry!

5.00We recently vacationed in Jamaica and stayed at a lovely resort, but we knew that we also wanted to book some off-resort excursions so that we could experience Jamaica from a locals perspective. Das was the perfect tour guide! We absolutely loved that this was a private tour and it was nice getting to be able to talk with Das one-on-one vs being lost in a crowd. 1. We visited KFC (which we were shocked about because we didn’t realize how big of thing KFC is in Jamaica) and WOW, let me tell you - one bite and it immediately took us back to the KFC in the US back in the 90s when their chicken used to taste like that. Soooooo sooooo good! 2. Next up with Juici Patties! Let’s just say I’ve had Jamaican patties before - but never anything that tasted like these. We got the chicken, beef, and the cheese - and they were all a 10/10. Zero notes!!!! Sooo good that I took some back to the resort to eat later in the day…..and they were just as good then as they were during our first bite. 3. Lastly, we went to Out A Road Crabby and even though we are now back in the U.S. I can still taste the food from this lovely local gem. The broth in the soup we had is something that I will never forget. The next time I’m in Jamaica - the moment I get off the plane, I’m going straight to Out A Road Crabby. Das, THANK YOU for taking such good care of us. We enjoyed our time with you and we wish you nothing but continued success. Everyone reading this - just go ahead and book this tour, you won’t be sorry!!!
