Montego Bay Ultra Adventure: ATV, Horseback, Zipline & Dunn’s River Falls Day Tour
A full-day Montego Bay pickup that packs ATVs, horseback riding into the sea, a zipline above Dunn’s River, and a guided climb of the famous travertine falls. Perfect for travelers who want one high-energy day sampling Jamaica’s backcountry and coastline.
The Experience
Before You Go
Secure small items
Use a waterproof dry bag and zip pockets for phone and wallet — ATVs and river climbs jostle gear constantly.
Footwear for two terrains
Bring closed-toe water shoes with good tread for the falls and rugged trail boots or sturdy sneakers for ATVs.
Pace yourself on the falls
Follow the guide’s route and keep a hand on teammates; currents and slick travertine require steady footing.
Stay hydrated and sun-protected
Carry a refillable water bottle and apply reef-safe sunscreen before activities to avoid sunburn and dehydration.
