Incorrect address on website and refusal to take to correct blue hole.
Website gave incorrect information, causing delays to the trip and the driver nearly refusing to take us to correct location. Please update website or give the driver correct information!! We booked shuttle only to the cascade blue hole, as the address on the website (see screenshot) gave this address. We had already booked the tour for cascade blue hole. The driver however took us to a different blue hole and told us we could not go to cascade blue as the shuttle had been booked to a different one. He told us we’d need to pay for a new tour and would not take us to the correct one (which was 7 mins up the road). We spent 20 minutes debating this with the driver who called management and refused to accept the address on their website was wrong. After going round in circles and showing evidence of this multiple times we were finally taken to the correct blue hole, however we’re still told by management they didn’t believe us. Was very expensive and the roads weren’t that bad (some potholes) so we’d have saved a lot of money just driving ourselves. Also: no snacks or refreshment were provided as advertised. Please update website!! Thanks
Response from the operator: Thanks for booking with folkesfortoursjamaica,we apologize for the address error,and we are so sorry for the inconvenience and the delay for your blue tour ,we have a lot of blue hole tour packages,we only used that location at cascade for group party packages ,never for blue hole tours , thanks so much for pointing it out to us ,cause we did not know that address was attached to that tour ,it was corrected with the original blue hole address and hope you guys had a great time at your excursion,thanks again.

Nothing short of Amazing 50th Birthday experience
This trip was so amazing! At first we were skeptical because it was a girl’s Birthday trip. I can tell you from the Airport during the stay back to Airport. Emanuel and Xavier were two caring people who reassured us that at all times we will be I. Their best interest for safety and most of all allowing us to have fun. Xavier took us out in this awesome tour to Blue hole where we all had a blast! We explored white water rafting with lime massage! a MUST have! horseback riding was a great experience! Nothing Short of an Amazing Awesome Birthday experience! Thanks again for those amazing gentlemen!
Response from the operator: Thanks for choosing Jamaica your birthday destination and most all thanks for making folkesfortoursjamaica your transportation for your airport transfer and all excursions,we will indeed miss you all ,hope to see you again soon.yeah mon,one love !!!

DRIVER REFUSED TO PICK US UP!
I booked transportation this tour- transportation only. As you can see from the photos, he started texting me at 11pm the night before, which should have been my first indication of a problem (RUDE!). He confirmed pick up time for the next morning and said that I would need to pay for admission when we arrived at the excursion. The next morning, he said the same thing again and when I mentioned that I had already purchased admission from another tour operator, he refused to pick us up, causing us to miss our excursion! I seriously don’t understand his point about me already having purchased from someone else because he was only paid for transportation. I’m not sure if he gets a kickback from everyone he brings or if he was going to try to scam us or something (notice he asked how much I paid), but where I purchase my admission tickets from is totally irrelevant to him transporting us to the place. He should NOT be used or the description should be edited to add “MAY ONLY purchase admission when you arrive.” Extremely upset.
Response from the operator: We Folkesfortoursjamaica apologize for the misunderstanding,the driver that was assigned to pick up the guest for the blue hole round trip transportation told us that the guest for that tour already booked with another company for the blue hole tour with another company and wanted a refund ,that is why your transportation to your blue hole tour was cancelled and funds refunded ,we Folkesfortoursjamaica only provide transportation to the excursions,we do not collect cash ,checks or participate in any money transactions with guests or excursions where guests are concerned when tours or excursions are booked through third party booking sites ,as it seems we where mis informed in such ways and we are apologetic for any inconvenience our cancellation may cause.

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ocho Rios.
How much does Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back cost?
+
Prices start at $40 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ocho Rios usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back 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 Ocho Rios is not rushed.
Is Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ocho Rios, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back?
+
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 Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back 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 Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back?
+
Around 3 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 Ocho Rios 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 Ocho Rios and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Roundtrip Private Shuttle from Ocho Rios to Blue Hole and Back 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 Ocho Rios 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 Ocho Rios?
+
On Outty we rank every Ocho Rios experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Blue Hole only-from Ocho Rios, Ocho Rios Blue Hole and Dunn's River Falls Tour, Blue Hole and Dunn’s River Falls Tour with Lunch and Cocktails at Reggae Hill. 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 Ocho Rios?
+
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 Ocho Rios?
+
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.
