I just wanted to hop on and write up a review of our excursion with Oneil. He was absolutely fantastic and I would totally recommend booking with him! Not paid or anything, just a satisfied customer.

 

We cruised to Montego Bay, but really wanted to see the Blue Hole. Oneil arranged to pick us up and take us back, with a stop for lunch at Scotchie's. He was there right on time in his clean and blissfully air-conditioned van, and was so kind and engaging. He was able to connect with my shy 10 year old and let my 15 year old have a Taylor Swift singalong while we were stuck in traffic. Even though it was a long ride, he made sure we could relax and shared info about the things we were passing. 

 

Once at the Blue Hole, Oneil hooked us up with a couple of friends of his, who escorted us through the falls and helped us over the rocks. It was really nice to have them there and it allowed me to focus on hiking (which is not my strong suit), and know that my kiddos were safe with them! They held our stuff, helped us on the rocks, and even took photos for us! We tipped them at the end, and it was well worth it. We felt like VIPs compared to so many of the other folks who were struggling. 

 

This ended up being a theme - everywhere we went Oneil seemed to know everyone, and they were happy to help him give his guests a wonderful experience. When we were happy and hungry after the Blue Hole, he took our lunch order and called ahead to Scotchie's so they would have our food ready when we arrived. He made recommendations and they did not disappoint - the food was delicious! And while the restaurant staff was busy with all the tour groups who had stopped in, we had one staffer all to ourselves who saw to our every need. Outstanding service, fantastic food, and they even helped find things for the pickier eaters!

 

After lunch Oneil got us back to the ship with plenty of time to spare, with some photo stops along the way at some of the gorgeous overlooks. Overall just a really great experience and I will absolutely be getting in touch with him next time I'm in Jamaica!

@babyclaytonmom I ask the same question to Oneil directly and he said that the approximate time it takes to do the Blue is 1hour but if you want to stay longer that is not a problem.

Hey Jackadapt, I am currently in dialog with Oneil Jamaica Excursions about a blue hole and river tubing excursion. what I have found out is that Dunn's river falls is more like a climb while blue hole is more swimming, jumping and it also has a rope swim. I picked the blue hole because my family is all about the most exhilarating experience. Also picked Oneil Jamaica Excursions because I heard he give an informative tour about the island on the way to and from the pick up point.

Here's his contact email if you want more information oneiltours@gmail.com

Hi all.  If you can only do one, which would you do and why?  Will be on Odyssey of the Seas at Falmouth.  Also, would it be practical to hit Scotchies for lunch since it's going in the other direction?  Any suggestions for tour operators?  Thanks for any input.

Hey, you can check out Oneil Jamaica Excursions for a great time. He will customize your day. www.oneiljamaicaexcursions.com oneiltours@gmail.com.

Hey Songyen, do you have any information about the river tubing and blue hole combination? How many Excursions can I fit into one day, will there be time to grab lunch?

Thank you.

what is the email address for Oneil Jamaica Excursions?

Hey, how long is the Blue Hole tour and what do we need to bring?

Has anyone been able to able to fit zipline and the Blue Hole into one day? I really want to go to the Irie Blue Hole but the kids really want to zip line so I would like to be able to do both. We are docking in Falmouth. Thanks everyone!

I am booked with Peat Taylor tours for DRF, White River Tubing and Blue Hole and saw that they offer the Zipline also you can check on the website to see ( http://www.ochoriosjamaicatours.com )

Is the private tours a much better experience or with a group for the DRF, White River Tubing and Blue Hole.

I am currently booked with Peat Taylor for DRF and Blue hole has anyone tried the white water tubing and how is it.

We are thinking of doing that too but not sure if it's too much for one day. When are you in Jamaica? Our ship gets to Ocho Rios on Nov. 26.

Just booked the same tour with Peat Taylor Tours he quoted me us $55 per person including the entrances fees for both attrations. He also have optional shopping and lunch, so this tour sounds awesome to me.
