Come idle a while with a Jamaican local who has the capacity to show off this amazingly beautiful tropical Island to travelers from all walks of life. I have worked in tourism for thirty years and have seen almost all the amazing sights and scenes that credits this Island as the "Pearl of the Caribbean" I am very knowledgeable of my country's history, statistics and current affairs. I have many years of experience in providing various groups and individual tours and packages to national and international travelers. I also endorse customized tours; "You create it, I make them happen". I also specialize in private tours, where travelers are more comfortable traveling and spending time with people they are comfortable with. As your private tour guide, time management is highly regarded, as some travelers, specifically cruise ship passengers have limited time to see and do all the things on their travel "wish list" So, come visit a farmers market, a rural community school, climb a cascading water falls, tread through a coconut or banana plantation, visit a quaint fishing village, ride through the hills with panoramic views of stunning landscapes, mountains and valleys or just simply lay on miles of white sand beaches. What ever your taste, it can be found in Jamaica, "the Heart-beat of the Caribbean". You are guaranteed complete satisfaction when I am chosen as your Jamaican tour guide!!!! ** IMPORTANT ** Driving distances between popular ports-of-call: FALMOUTH - OCHO RIOS: 1 hour MONTEGO BAY - OCHO RIOS: 1. 5 hours Licensed by the Jamaican Transport Authority.

Seville Great House is located on the north coast of the Island. This is the place where one of the first encounter among the peoples of the Americas, Africa and Europe took place. The 301 acre property on which Seville Great House / Heritage Park is situated, still has interesting relics that tell a story about the people who inhabited the Island hundreds of years ago. The Green Grotto Caves are said to have been a haven for runaway slaves in the 18th century. The caves are characterized by coastal limestone and are easily accessed. They feature a series of interconnected passageways and chambers, light holes, stalactites, and stalagmites. Their most striking features are the rock formations and the small grotto lake at the innermost cavern. See the statue of Marcus Garvey, Jamaica's first National Hero and the little house in which he was born in St. Ann's Bay. Then see Columbus Park an open museum with artifacts that verify s Columbus visit to this area. Then enjoy a swim at the beach or go shopping.

Richard is an excellent guide, he took us through scenic Ocho Rios with a fantastic stop for lunch, gardens, and the green grotto caves. Would highly recommend him for any tours
Richard is an amazing tour guide! The car was clean and drinks were provided. He is so knowledgeable about Jamaica and taught us a lot. He is funny and engaging. Our 10 year old twins enjoyed talking with him. We curated our own tour and based on what we told Richard he helped pick activities that were appropriate for our family. We did the Green Grotto caves, lunch at a jerk chicken center and tubing down the write river. It was perfect! Highly recommend using Richard for a private tour!
Richard was fantastic! He helpfully answered all my questions during the planning and suggested other sites my husband and I might be interested in visiting. His experience, extensive knowledge of the area, friendliness, and fun personality made our James Bond tour an amazing adventure around Falmouth and Ocho Rios. I cannot say enough great things about Richard, and when we visit Jamaica again, my husband and I will definitely book another tour with him. :)
Great tour! We had a fabulous time!!
Richard is wonderful, full of wit and humor. He meet us as agreed and provided an exceptional tour of the area. Stopping often for photos, he was great in recommending out of the way places full of charm that we should visit where the tour busses can't go. If you are touring anywhere close to his hometown area of Ocho Rios, Richard is the guide you should be using.
