Great round-trip transportation
Patrick was the best host/driver for our long excursion from Montego Bay to the boat for our transportation to the Pelican Bar and back! He talked the whole way and was telling us about different parts of the island that we drove by and was so knowledgeable! Highly recommend it!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We are happy you enjoyed your tour to the Pelican Bar.

Yummy
One of my old time favourites in Jamaica. Great service, great food. Very reasonable pricing. The indoor waterfall is beautiful. Amazing view of the ocean. BEST MILKSHAKES!

Excellent Cruise - most accommodating crew!
Vessel was clean and well maintained. The crew was exceptionally welcoming and wanting to ensure everyone on board had a safe and best time possible. Drinks on board, snacks, music, and wonderful weather. What more could you expect from a cruise of this nature.
Response from the operator: Happy you enjoyed your cruise!!

Amazing Experience
The tour to Floyd's Pelican bar was a great experience. What made the trip even more amazing was Patrick (owner/driver VIP Tours Jamaica). He communicated with us prior to the tour, he took care of every detail during trip and anticipated every need. He was a careful driver and very knowledgeable about the various communities we drove through. I would definitely recommend using his company for any tour, you would be in good hands. Looking forward to our next tour with him.
Response from the operator: Thank you for booking with us. It was a pleasure taking care of you Jamaican style. Looking forward to do this all over again on your next trip.

Fantastic
Amazing place to enjoy a cold beer in the middle of the Caribbean sea and for small donation will carve your name in the bar itself
Response from the operator: It was a great day, glad you all have fun!

Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego Bay: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montego Bay.
How much does Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego Bay cost?
+
Prices start at $155 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 Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego Bay take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego Bay worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 7 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 Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego 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 Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego Bay suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego Bay?
+
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 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Pelican Bar Tour from Montego 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 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 Appleton Estate Admission Ticket & Distillery Tour with Tastings, Blue Hole and Dunn's River Falls Private Tour from Montego Bay, Montego Bay Clear Kayak Drone Photoshoot & Video. 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.
