Rajaye is the GOAT! Best day ever in Jamaica
If you are headed to Jamaica and want a day you’ll actually remember, book with Courtney Taylor Tours and pray you get Rajaye as your guide! We had the absolute best time riding horses and taking the plunge at the Blue Hole. Honestly, the scenery was 10/10, but Rajaye made the trip. He’s an expert driver (those roads are no joke, but we felt totally relaxed), super chill, and kept the good vibes going the whole day. If you want a guide who is professional but feels like a local friend showing you the best spots, Rajaye is your guy. Don’t even think twice—just book it. Ya mon!

Start to finish fun
From home emailing with Samantha asking and answering questions we had and customizing our adult family of 4 tour was a great start. We ended up doing horseback riding for 2, blue hole for 4 and rafting for 4. We met at the meet up location right outside the port. A lot of people there, but we managed. We met our guide Devari and we were off. 2 of us were dropped off at horses and Devari took my wife on a short city tour. We came back to get them from riding and they had a great time. We were then off to floating on a bamboo raft to the ocean. This was very slow and peaceful and probably an hour long. The guides were great. We were then off to blue hole, probably our favorite stop. It was stunning. We had private guides/lifeguards that helped us along the way. We jumped, swam, hiked. They took pics along the way which we opted to buy. On the way back to port we asked Devari to stop so I could pick up some rum. We stopped picked it up and then made it back to port. From beginning to end this was as promised. Devari asked and answered lots of questions. Ask Devari about the BBD if you see him. We would use this company again.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Blue Hole and Horse back riding: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Falmouth.
How much does Blue Hole and Horse back riding cost?
+
Prices start at $109 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Falmouth usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Blue Hole and Horse back riding take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Falmouth is not rushed.
Is Blue Hole and Horse back riding worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 48 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Falmouth, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Blue Hole and Horse back riding?
+
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 Blue Hole and Horse back riding suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Blue Hole and Horse back riding?
+
Around 17 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 Falmouth 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 Falmouth and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Blue Hole and Horse back riding 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 Falmouth 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 Falmouth?
+
On Outty we rank every Falmouth experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mayfield Falls Tour with Lunch - Discount on groups(Original), ATV Jungle Safari Tour from Montego Bay, Chuck Norris Secret Falls and Dunn's River Falls. 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 Falmouth?
+
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 Falmouth?
+
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.
