Things to do over the New Year's Day long weekend in Montego Bay (Updated 2026)

Big up the entertainment team they were awesome and accommodating

Hi been to Pokoloko for a good time and I had the best time of my life the staff was 10 outa 10 the experience I had I recommend people to go and experience it plus I look forward to go back to Pokoloko.

The JA-Mazing Jerry does it again! This tour guide is top notch and the tour is spectacular. A beautiful, peaceful, relaxing ride down the river is a great way to start your Jamaican vacation. Try the coconut and sugar cane (and ox tail meal for an extra cost) and relax through a limestone massage. Take a few moments to swim in the river before you head back. The hour goes quick, but it is somehow just the right amount of time to learn about some of the beauty and culture of Jamaica, in the most serene way. Don't get sucked into the tourist trap large companies, this one is the best and you truly get the local experience that makes it so much more!

My husband and I booked three different excursions with Reggae Tours during our honeymoon in Jamaica, and somehow we were lucky enough to have Oshane as our driver all three days. By the end of our trip, he genuinely felt more like a friend than our driver.Every time we saw Oshane getting out of the car to pick us up for another excursion, we were SO excited to see him again. He was incredibly friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and made even the longer drives some of our favorite parts of our vacation. We always felt completely safe with him, and before every excursion he made sure we knew what to expect and that we were comfortable.But what made our experience with Oshane so special was everything he shared with us about Jamaica. We loved hearing about the culture, everyday life, and the places and foods that he actually enjoys as a local. He gave us so many recommendations that we started treating them like homework! 😂 Because of him, we made sure to try jerk chicken, jerk pork, Jamaican patties, Blue Mountain coffee, and the ice cream he told us about. He even told us about his favorite local river spot. Getting to experience Jamaica through the recommendations of someone who calls it home made our honeymoon so much more meaningful.We learned about his life and Jamaica, and he asked us about our lives and what things are like back home in the States. We shared so many laughs and random conversations along the way, everything from life in Jamaica versus the States to American football. He even knew of the Kansas City Chiefs despite not following football, which naturally led me to Taylor Swift and a good laugh about how she made them famous anyway. 😂When you spend three different days with someone during such a special trip, they become part of the memories you take home with you. Oshane shared a piece of our honeymoon with us, and we will genuinely never forget him. I like to think we left a little piece of ourselves with him, too.We already hope to return to Jamaica someday, and when we do, we would absolutely book with Reggae Tours again. More than anything, we hope we get to see our friend Oshane again.Oshane, if you ever see this: thank you for sharing your beautiful country with us, for all the laughs and conversations, and for making our honeymoon even more special than it already was. Until next time, our friend! 🇯🇲❤️

Jay was an amazing guide for the bamboo river rafting, he made the experience full of fun and laughter. Limestone massage was also fab. Great day!

Amazing experience! Courtney Tours is the best company! Ask for Tyrone, he is super kind and knowledgeable!

Excellent tour guides and lots of fun.

We had a great experience! Great tour by Alex/Kavor and he took great care of us. We were very happy with our whole experience!

Really good experience ! Very patient and lovely driver . Will definitely book this again

Great communication, friendly staff, made it fun! Make sure to bring your swimsuit if you dare, but it makes the water really light up more!

Experience was very nice exceeded my expectations everyone from driver to kayak photos to flame show very welcoming would highly recommend will book again for next trip🇯🇲💛💚🖤

I can only say 1, unfortunately there wasn't enough to go on Friday, so they organised my trip to Saturday, and what a journey, my guides were exceptional, especially the guide in the cab to and from ricks cafe a welt of a knowledge and even bought us sugarcane and enjoyed it with us on the way home, to me this has been an unforgettable experience thanks to the guides

We had an amazing experience! We went to the tip of Montego Bay for ATV riding then to Negril for Rick’s Cafe with the best drivers and staff. The owners even took us on a lil side quest to their weed farm which was an interactive learning experience! Will definitely be back in the future :)

Dwayne reddy was amazing made us feel comfortable got us there and back safely

The experience is a bucket list experience that you have to try. Very patient and polite service. 100 % would book again on my nexts vacation

This was one of the highlights of our trip! The experience was very enjoyable and they made sure we were comfortable. I will definitely book again when I return to Jamaica.
