We have just had the most amazing day with Andrae and Litman. They picked us up from the hotel and we got to see the rural Jamaica on route to the YS falls. Andrae had excellent knowledge of the areas their history and fascinating facts. We learnt so much from him and now have a better understanding of Jamaican life in general.
The falls were amazing we swam in the natural spring and this was very refreshing. Our guide Charlie took us around the waterfalls and took photos for us. He's a true pro with the smart phone camera!!
We also did the zip line. It was my first time but the team that took us up were fantastic
Their humour and encouragement gave us no doubt that we were in safe hands. I never thought I'd manage to do it but in the end i completed the course and ziplined over the water fall 300m in total and screamed all the way down. Absolutely loved it ! Definitely recommend booking onto this activity
Following this we went and had lunch at the appleton Estate. Amazing jerk chicken pork rice and peas salad and sweet potato salad. Delicious!! Complimentary cocktail and we also bought a signature cocktail afterwards and highly recommended you do this. They know how to mix a cocktail !!
The tour was very informative and interactive. We tried sugar cane, molasses ,sugar water, met paz the donkey , walked through the distillery and then through the barrel storage. This was then followed by a tasting session. Michelle taught us how to check the quality and age of rum and what spices are blended into it. Truly amazing experience.
I would def recommend Andrae and Litman of Chukka Tours for any trips you may want to do . Will def use these guys next time we are here !
