Private Transfer from Montego Bay to Zipline & Dunn's River Falls: Comfortable Door‑to‑Door Adventure
From Montego Bay’s hotel doors to the limestone tiers of Dunn’s River Falls and a high‑canopy zipline, this private transfer pairs comfort with active exploration. Expect 4–5 hours, separate park and activity fees, and guides who lead both climbs and lines.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear secure water shoes
The falls are slippery—closed‑toe water shoes with good grip make climbing safer and more comfortable.
Bring cash for entrance fees
Transportation is included but park entry and some zipline operators require on‑site payment or waivers.
Arrive early to avoid crowds
Morning pickups shorten wait times at the falls and cooler temperatures make the climb easier.
Use reef‑safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable sunscreen before you get in the water to protect marine life and improve water clarity.
