Great Experience!!
Our driver was awesome. He was early to pick us up and we arrived at Dunn’s River Falls before anyone else had arrived. We climbed the falls alone and without a guide. Amazing once in a lifetime experience. Blue Hole also was amazing - a short walk to waterfalls and cliff jumping. FYI, a guide is required at Blue Hole so bring tip money. Water shoes are also a must!
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that your driver made the day smooth and punctual, and that you enjoyed climbing Dunn’s River Falls ahead of the crowds, it truly is a once‑in‑a‑lifetime memory. We’re also glad you loved the Blue Hole adventure; your tip about bringing water shoes and gratuity for the guides is very helpful for future travelers. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back for another unforgettable tour in Jamaica!

Definitely recommend Jacques Tours!!
We had such a great experience with Jacques Tours! They picked us up right at the port, very convenient! Wayne was our guide, he was kind, friendly, and went the extra mile to go above and beyond to make our excursion fun! The falls were beautiful and so fun to climb! We loved cliff jumping in blue hole, thrilling and amazing! We are a family of 6, with kids ages 21 down to 12. Definitely would book with Jacques Tours again! Thanks for a great excursion!!
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review! We’re delighted to know your family had such a memorable day with us at Dunn’s River Falls and Blue Hole. It’s great to hear Wayne made the experience extra special, he truly enjoys going the extra mile for our guests. We’re glad you loved the adventure of climbing the falls and cliff jumping at Blue Hole, and that our port pickup made things easy for you. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back for another excursion whenever you return to Jamaica! Warm regards, Jacques Tours

Cannot recommend highly enough!
We had an excellent day with our driver, Wayne! We would highly recommend Jacques Tours to anyone. I didn’t want to miss the iconic Dunn’s River Falls or the Blue Hole, but I had seen photos of massive lines of people and did not want to be herded off of a bus just to climb up the falls in a line of people and be herded back onto the bus. The private tour was well worth the money for a peaceful day at our leisure! We didn’t realize on arrival that our ship had arrived a half hour early, and so did Wayne! He wanted to make sure we had time to see everything we wanted to see. The information staff called him on arrival with no delay, so no need for a local SIM. Wayne took us to the Blue Hole, as he arrived before Dunn’s River even opened, and we were one of the first few people there, which was amazing. The local guide (not part of Jacque Tours) was extremely informative and helpful, and I was glad we had enough time for him to show us the local flora and fauna. After the Blue Hole, we went to Dunn’s River Falls, where Wayne suggested the perfect amount of time for us to spend there (45 minutes longer than group tours). We did not want to climb up with a group and we were able to walk and swim in the falls at various points, take lots of pictures, and spend a good amount of time swimming and playing at the beach. I felt badly for the groups who were brought down the stairs and spent absolutely no time at all at the lovely beach. Prior to the tour, I had inquired about the possibility of adding a stop, depending on how we (particularly the kids) felt after the first two stops. The owner replied to my messages in just minutes and was incredibly accommodating, allowing us to decide on the day of the tour whether or not to add another stop, for a very reasonable price. We ultimately decided not to add the third stop, but it was amazing to have the option with no pressure whatsoever. If we ever return to Jamaica (and I hope we do), we would for sure go with Jacques Tours, as I can’t imagine a better experience!
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that Wayne helped make your day at Dunn’s River Falls and the Blue Hole so memorable. Arriving early and planning the timing just right is exactly the kind of personalized experience we want our guests to enjoy, and we’re glad you had the chance to explore at your own pace without the crowds. It’s also great to know that our quick communication before the tour gave you peace of mind and flexibility for your family. We truly appreciate your kind words and recommendation, and we’ll be sure to share your feedback with Wayne, he’ll be thrilled to know he made such a positive impression. We look forward to welcoming you back to Jamaica whenever you return. Until then, thank you again for choosing Jacques Tours and for trusting us with your adventure!

Wayne gets high praise!
Great communication. Everything exactly as advertised. Our guide, Wayne, with Jacques Tours Jamaica, was the kindest, most helpful driver. When we arrived to the port from our Norwegian cruise ship and called, he arrived promptly. While all of the other cruise passengers were loading up on huge tour buses, we took off for Blue Hole. We arrived before everyone else and enjoyed the ENTIRE experience start to finish before anyone else even arrived. Cortney, our guide at the falls, took us through each pool and guided my 18 year old son who was jumping. He made sure to take photos of us at every stop, kept each one of us safe, and even carried my ten year old over some areas he was afraid to cross. After that experience, we asked Wayne to take us to his favorite jewelry store to do some shopping, and he happily made a quick detour. Next was Dunn’s River Falls, where he cut us loose to climb the falls alone, or with one of the guides there. Three of us climbed, while the fourth walked the adjacent path and took videos of us. We made it to the top! It was pretty physically demanding- you really need to climb and navigate some strong water currents. Note that if you forget your water shoes, there are vendors selling them for $15 at the port right as you arrive, or you can even buy them super last minute at the falls itself. So if you forget shoes, don't let that keep you from going. My 18 year old insisted on doing Dunn’s with no water shoes “because they look stupid,” but it’s very slippery, and I wouldn’t recommend it. He struggled at times but made it fine. Wayne brought us back to port in more than enough time and we said our goodbyes. Everything was truly fantastic, and I’d recommend Wayne, this Jacques Tours Jamaica, and this excursion without a bit of hesitation. Try it! Have fun!
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that Wayne took such great care of your family from start to finish, and that Cortney made your Blue Hole adventure safe, fun, and memorable. It’s fantastic that you were able to enjoy the falls before the crowds and capture so many special moments together. We’re glad you also experienced Dunn’s River Falls, it’s definitely a challenge, but such an accomplishment to reach the top! Your tip about water shoes will be very helpful for future travelers. We truly appreciate your recommendation of Jacques Tours Jamaica. Guests like you make what we do so rewarding, and we’re thrilled your excursion was everything you hoped for. We look forward to welcoming you back to Jamaica for more adventures! Warm regards, Jacques Vassel

Why this scores 80
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Runaway Bay.
How much does Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay cost?
+
Prices start at $95 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Runaway Bay usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 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 Runaway Bay is not rushed.
Is Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 42 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Runaway Bay, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay?
+
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 Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay?
+
Around 15 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 Runaway Bay 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 Runaway Bay and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dunn's River Falls and Blue Hole Combo Tour From Ocho Rios & Runaway Bay 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 Runaway Bay 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 Runaway Bay?
+
On Outty we rank every Runaway Bay experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Sightseeing Tour in and Around Ocho Rios, Blue Hole and Bamboo Rafting Ocho Rios, Jungle River Tubing and Beach Adventure with Transportation. 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 Runaway Bay?
+
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 Runaway Bay?
+
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.
