1. Tag: Kingston
Arrive in Kingston today. Due to the number of evening flights into Kingston, your Leader plans to do the welcome meeting on the morning of day two, and will leave a message in reception with details on timings and everything else that you'll need for the day. There are no activities planned today, so you are free to arrive in Kingston at any time. If you would like to receive a complimentary airport transfer today, you'll need to arrive into Kingston's International Airport (airport code: KIN), approximately a 15 minute drive from our hotel. Should you miss the meeting, your leader will inform you of any essential information as soon as you catch up.
If your flight arrives earlier in the day, you can relax and soak up the Caribbean views and try out a local Red Stripe beer.
Unterkunft: Grand Port Royal Hotel
2. Tag: Taste coffee at a plantation in the Blue Mountains; visit the Bob Marley Museum
Our day begins with a drive north out of the city on increasingly winding and unmarked roads, heading upwards into the Blue Mountains. Among coffee lovers, this place is known for its fine (and, when exported, expensive) single-origin coffee, and our destination here is one of the area's best known coffee plantations. Here, way up in the Blue Mountains, we see how coffee is grown, harvested, and brewed. We will be guided around the Georgian home, as well as the coffee fields surrounding the estate, before ending the trip with a cup of freshly brewed Blue Mountain Coffee. The National Park itself is enormous, spanning four of Jamaica's parishes and covering the eastern part of the island in breathtaking mountain scenery, which we'll witness during our visit today.
On our return to Kingston we visit the Bob Marley Museum, situated in the colonial house where the legend of reggae lived from 1975. For anyone interested in music, the museum is a great look into the mind and inspiration of one of Jamaica's most famous residents.
The rest of the afternoon is free in Kingston. You may wish to visit Trench Town or Tuff Gong Studios, and continue your Bob Marley odyssey, or see a superb showcase of Jamaican art at the National Gallery. Alternatively, spend some time at Devon House, the 19th Century home of George Stiebel, the first black millionaire in the Caribbean. It's now a collection of local cafes and restaurants, and a good place for a lunch spot - as well as proudly serving some of the best ice cream in the Caribbean (well worth a try!).

Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück
3. Tag: Drive to Port Antonio with a visit to Charles Town Maroon Community and traditional lunch en route
With a leisurely start this morning, we'll travel to Charlestown for lunch and a unique history lesson, as we learn about the story of the Maroons. Since the 1700s, pockets of Maroon settlements have existed in Jamaica - escaped or freed slaves who were able to fight off the British and be granted a treaty of relative autonomy within the region. On our arrival we'll visit the village and discover a bit more about these amazing people, their historical legacy and way of life. We'll also taste some traditional Maroon food before continuing to Port Antonio.

Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück
4. Tag: Swim at the Blue Lagoon and Frenchmen's Cove
We'll drive to the Blue Lagoon this morning, one of those places where the name really does it justice. The water seems to fluctuate between bright turquoise, royal blue or a deep sapphire colour depending on where the light hits. We'll have chance to swim in this special place before driving just 15 minutes down the coast to Frenchmen's Cove, a gorgeous white-sand beach, sheltered in a secluded cove and backed by lush greenery.
We will be staying in Frenchmen's Cove for lunch. The area around Port Antonio is known for being the home of Jerk - so it's well worth trying a tasty plate of jerk pork or chicken today, washed down with a bottle of Jamaican Red Stripe.
After spending some hours here, we'll return to our hotel.
Please note that the access road to the Blue Lagoon is currently (since late 2022) undergoing maintenance work, and as such it is not possible to enter the Lagoon. In the case that the Blue Lagoon remains closed, we'll spend the day at Frenchmen's Cove - a wonderfully relaxing experience.

Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück
5. Tag: Optional rafting on the Rio Grande; drive to Montego Bay
This morning there is a chance to raft on the Rio Grande River. Leaving the hotel at 9am we take a short transfer to the banks of the Rio Grande. The rafts are made from bamboo and sits two adults, you can sit back and relax as you don't even have to paddle, your raft captain takes care of that whilst you watch the scenery. The rafting takes approximately two hours and we end at a spot aptly named the Rafter's Rest. If you don't fancy rafting the morning is free to relax at the hotel, departing at around 11:45 to transfer to meet the rafters.
This afternoon we'll drive to Montego Bay, stopping for lunch along the way. We'll arrive in the late afternoon and the rest of the day is free to relax.
Unterkunft: Deja Resort
Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück, 1x Mittagessen
6. Tag: Visit a Rasta Village; drive to Negril
Just outside of Montego Bay is one of the island's many (but dwindling) Rastafari indigenous villages. During our morning visit we'll get to grips with the Rasta lifestyle through learning about their music, lifestyle and spirituality as well as eating a delicious 'ital' lunch. Ital food is closely linked to Rastafari beliefs about vitality and purity - usually vegetarian or vegan, they use plenty of spices and natural ingredients to make delicious dishes.
After lunch we drive around the northwest coast to Negril, a small town with a wide reputation for some of the most beautiful coastline in Jamaica. As well as miles and miles of sandy beach, at one end of Negril we find clusters of high, craggy cliffs, jutting out over the water like spears. Perched high on one of these crags is Rick's Cafe, which we'll be visiting for sunset, one of the best on the island, as well as to watch the daring cliff divers who usually gather here to perfect their daredevil tricks.

Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück, 1x Mittagessen
7. Tag: Free day in Negril; relax on Seven Mile Beach
Today is free to enjoy everything that Negril has to offer. The long stretch of sand at Seven Mile Beach (in reality, it's closer to five miles!) is perfect for a long walk, or just to swim or relax with a rum punch and a lunch of chicken or curried goat or a quick and tasty Jamaican patty. There are many restaurants and cafes down the length of the beach if you want to get away from the midday sun. Alternatively, if you're interested in getting out on the water, scuba diving, snorkelling or glass-bottomed boat trips are all available.

Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück
8. Tag: Drive to Treasure Beach
Today we'll set off towards Treasure Beach, a low-key community that isn't a regular tourist hot spot. This afternoon is free to explore the village and its beach, or perhaps take a Jamaican cooking class and discover the secret of a true Jerk seasoning, learn to cook steamed fish and bammy (traditional cassava flatbread), or to prepare a lobster dish. Seafood is excellent in Treasure Beach, so it's well worth tasting some of the local lobster or other catch at dinner this evening.
Unterkunft: Lashings Hotel
Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück
9. Tag: Free day in Treasure Beach; visit the Pelican Bar or go dolphin spotting
There is plenty to explore in Treasure Beach, aside from the coastline itself. Just 1km offshore is the unusual Pelican Bar - a fantastic driftwood construction on a sandbank in the middle of the ocean, the wood all nailed together with a thatched roof plopped on top. Taxi boats are easily found. Alternatively, go dolphin spotting and take a boat 'safari' up the Black River, a swampy river home to the Jamaican crocodile and over 100 species of native bird. For those who prefer to stay on dry land, there is still the opportunity to take a Jamaican cooking class today.
Unterkunft: Lashings Hotel
Verpflegung: 1x Frühstück
10. Tag: Drive from Treasure Beach to Kingston Airport
Departing Treasure Beach this morning, we take a three and a half hour drive to Kingston airport, where our trip ends. We'll aim to arrive at the airport at approximately 1.30pm, so the earliest that your flight can depart is 4 pm.
