Great time was had along with the guide and photographer, can't wait to come back again and do it all over again
So much fun. Dunns river falls is a must do when you go to Jamaica! It's a bit of a workout and tons of fun. Awesome guides and awesome experience!
For a returning Jamaican bringing my husband (he's American) to experience Jamaica, I could NEVER HAVE imagined a better tour guide/driver than Courtney. Extremely professional, courteous, joyful, enjoyable driver . I would choose him to drive myself and my family ANYWHERE, ANY DAY.
Hello Karlene_J, Thank you so much for this incredible review! We are truly honored by your kind words. It means a lot that, as a returning Jamaican introducing your husband to the island, you trusted us to be part of that experience. Courtney will be very happy to hear how much you appreciated his professionalism, courtesy, and joyful personality. Providing safe, reliable, and memorable experiences for both visitors and returning Jamaicans is exactly what we strive for. Thank you again for choosing us, and we look forward to welcoming you and your family back to Jamaica again soon! 🇯🇲
Courtney was AMAZING! He was very knowledgeable about everything in the island and made extra time for us to visit the Blue Hole as well. He really knows his stuff and is always to make stops at fun food spots and sights along the way, 20 stars if I could!
Courtney was our driver for the day. We had an amazing trip! Courtney arrived early and the day was extremely well organised and punctual. Courtney taught us lots about Jamaica and the culture. We had a great trip and got eveutbing we wanted to and had planned done. Courtney also prioritised us and our safety. We will definitely be recommending coopa tours and Courtney to everyone! Communication was also fantastic before the trip started.
We went here on rasta Spidas boat tour and had a great time.Spida is a fantastic tour guide and very fair with his prices.Once at Dunns River our tour guide was excellent.
We had a blast; it was so much fun. I would definitely book again. Dunn River falls and Bamboo rafting was the best decision. Everyone was so nice and made the experience worth it.
The problem with this tour is that we paid to raft down the White River, which we have done prior. This should have been a 45-minute scenic river ride. However, once we were on our raft we saw a sign that said "Rio Nuevo". Our raft guide confirmed we were not on the White River it was further away. The Rio Nuevo ride was a non-scenic 10-minute ride to a rocky beach on the ocean where we were asked to leave the raft and walk around. Then we floated around the corner to another area of that beach and was asked to leave the raft again and walk around. This was nothing we were interested in doing on our river tour since our resort was located on a much more beautiful beach. When we let the tour guide know we paid for the White River he did not offer to take us there. On the way to Dunns River Falls, we actually passed the beautiful White River. We would love for our $60 per person cost for this part of the tour to be refunded. If not, we highly recommend you do not use this local tour company.
The falls are unique and beautiful. Thrilling to climb; between the crisp water, slippery rocks and verticality.
Hello Nancy_A, Thank you for sharing your Bamboo River Rafting and Dunn's River Falls experience with us. We are so glad you enjoyed the unique beauty of the falls. You described the thrill perfectly. There is nothing quite like the rush of the crisp water and the challenge of the climb to get the heart racing. We’re happy you found the experience as exhilarating as we do, and we hope to welcome you back for another climb in the future. Warm regards,
