    Long waits and high priced
    Naima_G, Feb 2024
    We thought by using aviator we’d be getting an appointed time, however we had to wait 2 hours to get a raft as it’s first come first serve for everyone. We paid so much money to Viator and could have just paid $40 per person.

    We are so sorry about the experience . On that day there were a total of four ships in our port, Which result to numerous guests visiting the attraction. This causes a delay and we are sorry we could not do anything about it.
    Great rafting trip on Martha Brae!

    The crew who helped us onto the boat and the captain were all very polite, friendly and knowledgeable. Marcus, our captain was very entertaining and made the ride even more fun!
    The captain was the best part of the trip.

    Fantastic private transport! Donovan was our driver and he was so kind and patient. There was a very long line for the rafting and he didn't seem at all impatient or phased. We never felt rushed and really enjoyed our rafting tour. We would strongly recommend Donovan!
    Wonderful!

    Our driver Dwight Harvey was awesome! Very positive attitude! Very knowledgeable about his island and extremely informative and funny. He started and ended my day on a wonderful day. Kudos to you Dwight.
    Great trip

    Dwight Harvey, Oneil, and Martha Brae River Tour
    BRIAN_B, Sep 2022
    Dwight Harvey organized our trip and he was absolutely amazing! Dwight was at our hotel almost an hour prior to our tour started but we were not rushed. He wanted to ensure that we had the best service and if we wanted to leave earlier, we could. Indeed we left from the Hyatt Zilara 30 minutes prior to our scheduled tour. Dwight gave us a primer on the history of the island and many other facts. He was very cordial, informative, and helpful. I wish we had more time in Jamaica as we would have employed him as our personal driver. We had Oneil (Not sure of spelling) as our bamboo raft captain and he was wonderful. Informative and cheerful. He didn't rush and we had lots of laughs while he answered our varied questions about the river and other subjects. He also had some neat carvings for sale at a reasonable price for a tour momento. The river itself is extremely peaceful and it's fun to see the nature. We didn't jump off the raft at all but definitely feel the water. It's cool to the touch and refreshing. We bought some coffee at the end of the tour at the small shop because it was fairly priced. Way less expensive than the hotel and about on-par with the airport. The difference is that you are purchasing from a local vendor (At least from what I can gather) while in the airport you are buying from expats from other places. I would do this tour again.
    Family rafting

    It was an amazing experience. My family and I loved it. Edger our guide was the best and gave us a great ride down the river stopping along the way and even lets us take over. 👍
    Great experience in Montego Bay!

    We had Dwight Harvey pick us up in his van at our hotel, he arrived right on time. He was friendly and knowledgeable about the Jamaican culture. He shared his knowledge with us on the ride over to the raft. Once we arrived, we were given life vests and headed to our raft. Our raft captain, I believe his name was Roy? He was raft #16. He gave us a very relaxing, smooth ride down the river. He pointed out fruits, trees, birds, etc on the way to tell us more about them. The raft was comfortable (padded seat). Everyone was interacted with during this experience was so nice! We would definitely recommend this tour to our family and friends. Thanks again!
    The Best Excursion Ever!!

    Great experience. Raft captain 49 Franky was great. Gave us a great insight to Martha Brae and was very knowledgable. Highly recommended.
    A MUST DO tour while in Jamaica!!!
    Cyndrea_J, Mar 2022
    Our bamboo raft tour at Martha Brae was nothing short of amazing… easy booking…great communication prior to pickup at our hotel… our driver Dwight was our favorite driver the entire week we were in Jamaica. He was funny, engaging and gave a great tour of the sights we saw on the way to the river tour. Once we were there, we were checked in by Dwight and handed over to our Senior Raft Captain Linford (captain 106). We were so lucky to have Linford for the 75 minute ride. He didn’t rush us through the tour, he took his time and educated us about the plants, wildlife and history of the scenery we saw along the way. It was truly a treat! If you have the chance to request your bamboo raft captain, do yourself a favor and request Linford Captain 106 :)
    Amazing
