    What you'll see and do

    1. Blue Hole

      Another name for the attraction, aptly called ‘Secret Falls’ speaks to said feature of the attraction, which in and of itself is secluded and also veils a hidden cave underneath its cascading streams. A mere 7 minutes away from the 20-feet deep pool of Blue Hole, is the secluded falls, which has remained quite untouched by modernistic designs. It boasts several small pools, a large main pool and a 20 feet high waterfall, famous for bold dives, jumps and body slams. On your way to the falls, you can stop for a refreshing snack of coconut jelly from a lone vendor, you both will be delighted. This rustic attraction, cloaked by lush green flora, filters in the ideal amount of sunlight for the perfect excursion; just ask your guide for a full tour. With daring drops of 9-feet and 15-feet jumps and, up the top, a mud spa for back massages, it is no wonder this location has had a steady stream of visitors for a significant time. A favourite for about 11 years.

He went above and beyond to make sure everyone was safe, enjoying themselves, and having a great time. His positive energy and great customer service truly made the experience even more memorable.

    Fabulous Day in Ocho Rios

    Thank you Know Jamaica Tours for showing our family of 5 a fabulous time in Ocho Rios. Marva helped us design a fun day touring the Blue Hole, horseback riding and lunch. Bess (our amazing tour guide) safely drove us around town for about 4 hours. He was friendly and informative. At the end of the tour, he found a nice woman to braid my daughter's hair, very fun! We all had such a great experience with zero complaints. Thank you all again!!

    Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Runaway Bay.

    How much does Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica cost?

    +

    Prices start at $343 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 Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica take?

    +

    Plan for about 5.5 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 Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 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 Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica?

    +

    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 Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica?

    +

    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 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 5.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica 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 Mayfield Falls Tour with Lunch - Discount on groups(Original), Blue Hole and Bamboo Rafting Ocho Rios, Private Sightseeing Tour in and Around Ocho Rios. 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.

    What is included in Horseback Riding , Blue Hole And Lunch from Ocho Rios Jamaica?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; Snacks; All Fees and Taxes; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Lunch; Alcoholic beverages; Breakfast; and Brunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
