Description

Looking for a day that’s pure Jamaica? This escape blends rum, waterfalls, and barefoot bliss into one unforgettable experience. Kick things off with a tour and tasting at the iconic Appleton Estate, cool down in the jungle paradise of YS Falls, then float out to the Caribbean’s most legendary bar—Pelican Bar. This adventure gives you a taste of real island life, with the freedom to explore it your way.

First stop: Appleton Estate—the birthplace of Jamaica’s finest rum. Walk through the historic distillery, watch cane turn to gold, press your own sugarcane juice, and sip smooth, honey-colored rum straight from the source.

Then, it’s on to YS Falls, where nature turns up the wow factor. Surrounded by lush rainforest, these cascading falls are made for a dip. Swim in the cool natural pools, swing into the water, or just relax and take in the tropical vibes.

Finally, hop on a boat and cruise to Pelican Bar—a driftwood dream in the middle of the sea. This rickety, rum-soaked hut-on-stilts is one of Jamaica’s coolest secrets. Order a cold Red Stripe, carve your name in the wood, and keep your eyes out for dolphins on the horizon. Got a flag? Bring it—Floyd the bartender might just hang it up.
