    Go see Hylton and raft down the Martha Brae!

    My friend and I loved our experience rafting down the Martha Brae, with our guide, #96 Captain Hylton! He was friendly, knowledgable, and so pleasant. He even got in a picture with us, and he didn't hesitate to take solo photos of us! We even got to see his coconut artwork and learn about limestone's healing properties for my sunburn! LOL. Thank you, Hylton, for showing us amazing hospitality and a great river ride!

    Great peaceful experience

    Great experience. We paid $99 per raft which holds 2 people and you have a raft captain who guides you down the 3 mile river. There is jerk chicken being sold on site as well as a gift shop and a bar for drinks at the end. The 3 mile trip was very peaceful and relaxing and the captain is very informative about each section

    Great time

    Had a lovely time, and Blake #112 was the best guide for our experience. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and had some great pieces of handmade artwork. The only reason the water was a little brown.. is that it was raining in the mountains. It was clearer when we first arrived. Make sure to go.. you will have a wonderful time.

    Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $120 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Montego Bay usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 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 Montego Bay is not rushed.

    Is Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 74 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Montego Bay, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour?

    +

    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 Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour?

    +

    Around 26 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 Montego 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 Montego Bay and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour 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 Montego 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 Montego Bay?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Montego Bay experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Montego Bay Airport Transfer to Negril, Blue Hole and Dunn's River Falls Private Tour from Montego Bay, Appleton Estate Admission Ticket & Distillery Tour with Tastings. 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 Montego 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 Montego 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.
