ATV and Zipline Adventure in Montego Bay — Private Wilderness Tour
Combine muddy trails and high-flying views on a private ATV and zipline tour out of Montego Bay. Ride through rainforest tracks, climb a 60-foot launch tower, and sail 2,450 feet of zipline with Caribbean vistas.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear quick-dry, closed-toe shoes
Trails include water crossings and mud; sturdy shoes that drain fast keep you comfortable for the whole day.
Bring a waterproof phone pouch
You’ll want photos from the zipline and ATVs, but both expose electronics to water, dust and vibration.
Hydrate before departure
The loop lasts 5–7 hours with physical exertion and sun exposure — drink water before you board the transport.
Alert guides to health restrictions
This tour isn’t recommended for pregnant guests or people with recent spinal or serious cardiovascular problems — notify guides at booking.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Ask guides to stop at roadside stands for authentic jerk chicken or festival (fried dumpling).
- •Look for small community gardens and riverside clearings where local families may be washing or fishing — respectful photos are sometimes allowed.
Wildlife
- •Green vervet monkeys (occasionally seen at forest edges)
- •Tropical birds like Jamaican todies and hummingbirds
Conservation Note
Operators typically limit group sizes and stay on established trails to protect fragile understory; avoid feeding wildlife and pack out all trash to reduce human impact.
The region around Montego Bay has long been a crossroads of agricultural estates and small fishing communities; inland trails often follow old farm tracks and river access routes.
Photographer's Notes
- • Top of the 60-foot launch tower for seaward panoramas
- • Mid-zipline for canopy-and-ocean compositions
- • ATV trail clearings where sunlight hits the foliage
