Croydon In The Mountains

If you are looking for an incredible experience off the beaten track, and want to see the real rural Jamaica, do not miss this amazing place. The ride from MoBay takes about 1 to 1.5 hours depending on your resort, and while the road can be a little bumpy, it already offers amazing views. Once you arrive at Croydon, prepare to be amazed! You will get a very informational speech about the country and the plantation, home to one of the National Heroes of Jamaica, Sam Sharpe. Then you'll learn about coffee and honey, and observe some gorgeous hummingbirds. At this point you will move through the stunning property observing all sorts of trees and sampling so many varieties of pineapple and tasty fruits, juices and ginger beer. You will meet knowledgeable, friendly and passionate people that make the experience even more pleasant, and conclude the tour with one of the best Jamaican lunches you could dream of. Don't forget to drink the coconut water and to eat the jelly!!! I recommend the experience to groups, couples, families with children, even young ones: this attraction is definitely eco and family friendly. Excellent for nature and animal lovers. One of the best, truly authentic excursions in the country, that you don't...

The best tour for nature lovers. Alecia our tour guide was so knowledgeable and the sweetest person ever!

The views from Croydon are breathtaking and there are so many plants/fruits growing there. Everything was delicious and I may have overdone it sampling the pineapples and fruits that I barely had room for lunch. There is moderate walking with some small hills, my 10 year old has some mobility issues but still managed the walk. If you want to experience the real countryside in Jamaica, sample delicious fruits and food and spend time with the most welcoming tour guide in Jamaica I recommend a trip to Croydon in...

One of the best tours we've taken on our travels. It's a definite must if you're in Jamaica.

Expect a reasonable ride into the mountains, you'll get to see the list life, both the rich and poor. It will really help you understand the state the country is in and learn more about their culture.

The tour is not tiring at all, you'll learn a ton and walk away with 100% more knowledge than you started with. Don't worry, you get to taste the fruit and end with an awesome lunch.

The coffee was good, medium roast. And is available at the end of the tour.

Do bring bug spray and put it on before you get off the bus, seriously these bugs are no joke. Sunscreen is always good. And take some cash USD works almost...
