Montego Bay Combo Adventure: ATV, Zipline, Horseback Riding & Bamboo Rafting
One full day, four ways to move: bamboo rafting, ATVs, horseback, and a treetop zipline around Montego Bay. This combo tour pairs local guides with round-trip transport for a practical, high-adrenaline look at Jamaica’s rivers, trails, and canopy.
The Experience
Before You Go
Shoes and grip
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes with good tread for ATVs and horseback; flip-flops are not suitable.
Hydrate early
Bring 1–2 liters of water and sip regularly—tropical heat and activity make dehydration easy.
Sun and reef care
Use reef-safe sunscreen and a brimmed hat to protect against strong sun between activities.
Tell your guide
Declare any injuries, pregnancy, or limited mobility before the day starts so guides can adapt activities.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Ask guides about small roadside fruit stands—fresh breadfruit or roasted corn is a quick local snack.
- •If visibility is clear on the zipline, look inland for limestone ridgelines and cultivated fields that mark old estate boundaries.
Wildlife
- •Egrets and herons along river edges
- •Small lizards (anoles) sunning on rocks and posts
Conservation Note
Stay on marked trails, avoid trampling riverbanks, and use reef-safe sunscreen; local operators increasingly follow 'leave no trace' practices to protect fragile riparian zones.
Bamboo rafting and riverside guiding draw on Jamaica’s history of river transport and rural livelihoods; horseback and trail routes often follow paths used during plantation and cattle eras.
