Why you’ll love this…

  • This tour includes a boat trip to Pelican Bar, an above-water spot that's built on stilts

  • You'll have an expert local guide with you at all times who'll tell you all about the places you'll visit
What to expect

For an experience that's 100% Jamaica, look no further than this exclusive private excursion. A tour and tasting of the Appleton Estate rum factory gets the day off to a great start, followed by a refreshing dip in the famous YS Falls and a boat ride over to the one and only Pelican Bar. This is one of our private TUI Collection excursions, which give you a local flavour of the destination while offering you the freedom and flexibility to enjoy the day your way.

Kick off at the Appleton Estate and you'll tour the factory that produces what many consider the finest rums in Jamaica. Learn about the distillation process, juice your own cane and, of course, taste the honey-coloured rum. On to the cascading waters of the YS Falls, you'll cool off in the refreshing waterfall pools with a swim.

After lunch, we board a boat and glide out to the Pelican Bar. This ramshackle hut on stilts has to be seen to be believed. Standing on glittering waters, it's probably the coolest bar in the world. Don't forget to carve your name into the wood and if you have a flag handy, bring it out to barman Floyd. With luck, you might spot dolphins too.

Appleton Rum tasting, YS Falls and Pelican Bar tour

A tantalising blend of rum, waterfalls and floating bars awaits on this action-packed trip. Showcasing the island's cultural heritage and natural beauty, this excursion has 100% Jamaica stamped all over it. As one of our expert local guides, Floyd says, ‘Experiencing Jamaica through rum tasting, wild swimming at a waterfall and an iconic bar gives you a great perspective on the many attractions of Jamaica. It's like stepping into a living postcard.' Begin your day with a fascinating tour of the Appleton Estate rum factory, renowned for producing some of the finest rums in Jamaica. Floyd enthuses, ‘Discover the distillation process, juice your own sugar cane and savour the honey-coloured rum – it's a truly immersive experience.' Next, you'll be whisked away to the cascading waters of the YS Falls where you can cool off in the refreshing waterfall pools. After lunch, it's time to hop on a boat and glide out to the Pelican Bar. With luck, you might spot dolphins en route. The Pelican Bar is a ramshackle hut on stilts which has to be seen to be believed. Standing on glittering waters, it's probably the coolest bar in the world. Be sure to carve your name into the wood as a memento of your visit. After a swim in the natural pools surrounding the bar, round off your day by raising a glass to Jamaica's intoxicating charm.

Kaffefarmvandring genom Jamaicas Blue Mountains med brunch
Aktiviteter

Kaffefarmvandring genom Jamaicas Blue Mountains med brunch

När du vandrar genom Jamaicas dimmiga Blue Mountains, ta en stund att andas in doften av jasmin från de vitblommiga kaffeträden som blandas med palmer, ormbunkar och orkidéer i denna del av regnskogen. Följ stigarna och lär dig allt om traditionerna och teknikerna för kaffeodling i denna region – och varför dess bönor är några av de mest eftertraktade – och dyraste – i världen. Marcus, en lokal guide, förklarar: ”Blue Mountains är speciella, inte bara för sin skönhet, utan också för vad de ger jordbrukssamhället. Den höga höjden, det svala klimatet och den rika jorden är en dröm för kaffeodlare.”Stigen tar dig på en lugn vandring uppför berget, förbi små familjeägda kaffeodlingar. Här får du lära dig mer om hur bönderna sedan 1700-talet har skördat mogna kaffebär för hand för att skapa den milda, fruktiga och söta smaken av Blue Mountain-kaffe. Landskapet här är också ganska historiskt, som något ur Jurassic Park – tänk dig en tät grön regnskog med vattenfall, dalar och dimmiga bergstoppar. Ha din mobil till hands för att ta bilder.Efter drygt tre kilometers vandring belönas du med ett svalkande dopp i Blue Mountains Whirlpool. Marcus tillägger: ”Oroa dig inte – det är en djup, stenig pool med ett vattenfall som rinner ner i den – ingen virvlande ström! Den är känd lokalt som ungdomens källa, så kom och simma bort några år.” Avsluta turen med att lämna ett bestående avtryck på den lokala naturen. Du får plantera ett träd som en del av ett program för att stödja återplantering av skog och hållbart jordbruk i denna del av Jamaica.
