Black River and YS Falls Tour

4.5/5
460 reviews

Jamaica's longest river, Black River, is a tropical wildlife haven. Spend time on its languid waters with this full day tour, taking in ancient mangrove swamps and prehistoric crocodiles and having a refreshing dip in the waterfall pools of the famous YS Falls.

You'll take a scenic drive through densely forested mountains before climbing aboard your pontoon boat. Drift silently downriver, soaking up the sights and sounds of the jungle – all the while learning about the ecosystem's specific wildlife from your local guide.

Glide past huge mangroves and beady-eyed crocodiles peeping from the water, which your guide will lure to the surface for some great photo ops by tossing food from the boat. Finish your trip at the beautiful, cascading waters of the YS Falls, where you'll cool off in the refreshing waters of one of its natural pools.

    Loved seeing you beautiful waterfall and being able to access it. The black river was amazing and the tour guide there was brilliant. We got very close to the crocodiles and the guide was so informative. However, the actual tour guide for the day (I can't remember her name) seemed to lack any personality or enthusiasm and came she across very blunt and almost rude to the group at times. The driver seemed happy enough and always had a smile for everyone.

    Our guide and driver were brilliant and both places were really good. Simple pick up from hotel. Only suggestion is that water is provided on the bus

    Both black river cruise and the ys falls were amazing we saw and fed crocodiles saw multiple birds and even chicks in nests, ys falls was beautiful we climbed the falls with the guide who had missed his calling in life as he was an amazing camera man and took photos with my phone that I have no clue how to do.The only negative is the transfers to black river and back to grand palladium were both around 3 hours in the most cramped old coach that the driver drove like it was a rally stage

    Great guide. Full marks for Vivienne. It was a pity that only the two lower levels of the falls were open due to damage caused by the hurricane.

    Pick up time was spot on. Very helpful and professional guide and driver. Saw a couple of crocodiles which absolutely made my day. Zero issues what so ever, would recommend.
