The perfect experience and Richard is the perfect guide
We booked a couple of trips with Island Jamaica Excursions. First off Marcie who managed the booking was incredible. My son had an ear infection, and we needed to move the booking, not only was she super compassionate about how he was, she moved it with no issues. Richard was our tour guide and I cannot praise him enough. His love and passion for his country shone through and made us love everything he showed us even more. He went above and beyond to make our trips informative and fun. The first trip horse riding and Dunns River Falls was so good with him that we booked a second trip. We used another tour company through our hotel that I had booked a trip with in advance which was awful and nothing compared to the time spent with Richard. I just wish we had used him for everything. Thank you to both Marcie and Richard for your kindness, your knowledge and putting the sparkle into Jamaica.

Caribbean horse ride
The ride in the Caribbean Sea was awesome, it’s a shame the guides constantly remind you that “we’re looking after real good, so you can look after us real good too”
via Viator
Rude!
The experience would have been great had the tour guides not been constantly asking for tips. When we were finished and I did provide them with a tip I was told ‘this is like nothing’. So rude. I could have kept my hard earned money
Response from the operator: We are extremely disappointed to know that your fun experience was spoilt by the tour guides at the activities. These guides are not employed by Island Jamaica Excursions. They are employed by the attractions: Horse Back Riding and Dunns River Falls. As such, we have no control over them. HOWEVER, we will definitely let their management know about this complaint, so that they can put a stop to it and prevent future travelers from having the same unpleasant experience you had. Thanks for you feedback and we hope your next trip to the attractions in Jamaica will be incident free.

Horse back riding
We had a great time! Definitely a must do activity when visiting Jamaica! Kevin took really good care of us.

Fun!
Our transportation was funny! After the tours he took us to a few spots where we can go shopping and eat. The horseback riding was a cool experience but the Dunns river tour was super fun. But the pictures and videos they took at Dunns river was not that good.
Response from the operator: Thanks for choosing Island Jamaica Excursions! We are super happy to know you had a fun adventure. We are sorry to hear about the poor quality video and pictures from Dunns River Falls. That service is not a part of our offerings. However, we will inform them about the issue. Thank you for reviewing our service and we look forward to serving you again!

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ocho Rios.
How much does Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls cost?
+
Prices start at $188 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ocho Rios usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ocho Rios is not rushed.
Is Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ocho Rios, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ocho Rios can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ocho Rios and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Beach Horseback Riding and Dunn’s River Falls start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ocho Rios within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ocho Rios?
+
On Outty we rank every Ocho Rios experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Blue Hole only-from Ocho Rios, Ocho Rios Blue Hole and Dunn's River Falls Tour, Blue Hole and Dunn’s River Falls Tour with Lunch and Cocktails at Reggae Hill. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ocho Rios?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ocho Rios?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
