Enjoyable excursion! Our tour guide, Tillea, was exceptional along with our driver Ray. They both kept out group engaged during travel time with history and trivia about Jamaica. Time allowed for each stop was good, at no time did we feel rushed. Good luck to Tillea on her studies and future aspirations.
The tour guides Tilla and Ray were excellent, very knowledgeable, friendly and fun.
Tillea and Ray did an awesome job!
Tillea was an awesome host and Ray was a good driver
All the staff was encouraging and amazing! Tyrone was the absolute best! Would love to travel with him again and learn all of the information I can. Thank you for the memories and experience 🫶🏾
My granddaughter and I had the most wonderful experience. The guide was very attentive, made us feel safe and provided a lot of Jamaican trivia. What a lovely time.
We had an amazing experience with our driver, Kanstanstine, from Courtney Taylor Tours. He drove us to and from our horseback riding excursion and truly went above and beyond. On the way, he gave us a nice tour of Jamaica, took us shopping, and even stopped so we could get authentic local food. He spent a lot of time with us, was very kind, patient, and professional, and made the whole experience feel personal and special. We really appreciated his hospitality and would definitely recommend him!
Our driver was so sweet and attentive. She was very knowledgeable with the area and took good care of us. Our guide for the horseback was sooo entertaining. He walked with us all the way through. He made the experience 10x more enjoyable
The tour company delivered the tour as advertised. The poor horses looked thin and over worked. We had trouble walking over the stone riddled paths god knows how the horses stay upright. Our guide with the horses offered to take pictures on his phone and would send them over via WhatsApp. As we we’re afraid of dropping our phones in the sea. He showed us some nice pictures and we gave him $20. This couldn’t have been enough as the pictures never arrived. The market was a souvenir shop. And lunch was a jerk chicken meal in a bag as they had to rush back to pick up the other half of the group they had left bamboo rafting. No white beaches, bullied horses, don’t believe the pictures on the adverts.
WE want to say thanks for making it Courtney Taylor Tours and we are sorry about your experience. Guest book a shared tour and when Guest was pick up they state that they expect a private tour. The tour was not private hence guest was not happy. The horse back riding tour is 45 minutes and guest did a nature trail ride, they ride pass a fishing village, other horse back attraction uses the same beach and this is the beach that the cruise ship company uses to do horse back riding and also Atv. Therefore the beach and nature trail could not have been a waste land while it is been actively use by cruise ship and other attractions for horse back riding and atv. Also the horses are well fed by organic food however because of daily actively they are not over weight however they are well fit. The guest choose to rush the tour by taking lunch to go and not wanting to spend the 45 minutes at shopping to check out all the different souvenir stores. We do shopping stop at Taj mahal which have over 20 different stores. Hence the driver/guide had no choice but to comply and get the lunch to go and bring back guest to their resort. All drivers stay within the speed limit for each speed limit zone hence not sure what would make guest state they experience White knuckle driving. WE thanks guest again for making it Courtney Taylor Tours and next time it is best guest book a private tour so we can give them a private experience and show them our beautiful island.
Shawn was super cool and went the extra mile for us! The guides were funny and made sure that we were safe in the horses. Would recommend!
