The Rockland Bird Sanctuary is home to many species of birds, some endemic to Jamaica while others flew to the Island from other countries and make Jamaica their home. The bird sanctuary is located in the hills of a small community called Anchovy, approximately a 20-minute drive from the city of Montego Bay. The tour can last for 45 minutes to over 1 hour depending on the group's interest. Bird lovers will find this tour very fascinating as many different birds will fly from trees to the ground for you to feed them. The hummingbirds, the national bird of Jamaica, are part of a special experience as you sit with a bottle of their favorite drink, wait for them to perch on your outstretched finger while you feed them from the bottle. Next, you will take a walk through the garden with the guide to see the different trees and herbs before the tour ends.

Awesome
The driver was awesome, and the bird sanctuary was worth it, especially if you have kids. Oh, just a quick note: it's $30 for adults, not $25, at the bird sanctuary. I had the best driver, and he made the trip there fun and exciting!

Well worth a visit if you love nature
Lovely quiet trip off the beaten track. Not commercial and no hard sell. A great experience. Only an hour there but wonderful native birds and beautiful view. Well worth a visit.

Heavenly bird experience
The bird sanctuary is beautiful! The gentleman tour guide sat us down right away on a beautiful deck surrounded by lush forest. We were given nectar and almost immediately we were feeding hummingbirds! I’m a bird lover so this was special to me but I believe anyone who loves nature would enjoy.

Worth it!!
Amazing place! We really enjoyed it! It's difficult to get to, but we loved it up there so much. A lot of humming bird interactions (be patient), lizards, doves, and other birds. Incredible view of Montego Bay as well!

Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montego Bay.
How much does Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up cost?
+
Prices start at $80 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 Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour 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 Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 14 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 Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up?
+
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 Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up?
+
Around 5 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 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rockland Bird Sanctuary Tour with Transportation Hotel Pick-Up 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.
