Rastafari Cultural ATV Community Experience from Negril

You cannot believe it , until you see it!

Just wow. Myself, wife and son went on the rastafari, we had the amazing duo tour guides “ Shane & Spencer “ what a duo they were. The atv’s were top of the range and hilarious fun! the guys always assured safety belts where in before driving. They never rushed one stop off for pics and fun in the river, met the locals and we where welcomed. This was just a perfect experience and the two guys made it so special, in fact we are about to book again for 2025!! Thank you ratsafari! See you all soon! Michelle and Tom :)

Must do

Excellent, cultural experience. Tour guides are all great and the scenery is lovely to behold. Highly recommend

Once in a Lifetime Experience!

It started with the warmest Jamaican greeting and then the welcome drink. WOW!! Ella & Tash very knowledgeable and pleasant as the point out the little things that is JAMAICA. ATV guides Colwayne and Gilbert informative and protective. All locals helping to make the Rastafari Experience true to its name. The terrain, views and the history becomes one during this ATV excursion. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. The Roaring River is a beautiful community that is being supported by the Rastafari Experience. My son loved every minute of the adventure.

ATV review

Our driver Junior was amazing, he didnt just drive us to ATV tour. He showed us around towns, took us to gift shops, Ricks cafe, and to get coconuts. He walked with us and went above and beyond for 2 women in a foreign country where we are unfamiliar. the tour was good. Our female at the beginning was sweet and we enjoyed learning about plants for healing. Our tour on ATV was fun but guide honestly just drove and stopped periodically, barely talked to us and just sat and talked to his friend. Overall good experience, Marijuana farm was interesting.

MUST-DO

Absolute fantastic experience. Carlos the guide was fantastic and very informative. It’s a must do if coming to Jamaica.

Amazing!!!!

I had the most amazing time during the Rastafari tour. My guides were incredibly kind and fun, I felt safe and well taken care of. The company is responsive and also gives back to the community. There was so much harmony between the community members and the company. My tour guides, Ella, Calloway and Richard made sure I had the most amazing time. The vegan meal was exceptional. This tour was the highlight of my trip. I will do it again anytime I’m in Jamaica!

RastaSafari

This trip was fantastic.Fr start to finish .Beautiful countryside .Sight seeing in atv was stunning .Seeing the villages locals and breath taking views .Seeing the cannabis farm and finishing off with a tasty vegan meal .

Great Excursion

One of the best excursions. It started with our driver, Jenieve. She was very knowledgeable and great conversationalist during the ride to and from the countryside. Our guides were Carlos & Stylie, the OG’s. These guys are great!! They explained the plants and history of the area. And made sure we had a great trip.

An excursion of a lifetime

Family and I thoroughly enjoyed it, the tour guides were top class - MASSIVE SHOUT OUT TO Shane & Neiko for their warm welcome and for providing us with an in-depth exploration and explanation during the guided tour. The breathtaking scenery left me speechless, causing me to gasp multiple times and filling me with a deep sense of wonder at its extraordinary beauty. Furthermore, I loved the all-terrain aspect as it added excitement and exhilaration to the overall journey. We even had the chance to spend time with the community which was a joy. Lastly, we were treated to a delicious, exquisite meal before concluding our day at Rastasafari. To conclude, exploring the ineffable essence of Rastasafari transcends mere verbal expression; it necessitates a personal immersion to fully grasp its enchanting marvels. I emphatically urge embarking on this journey as I assure you of its unparalleled satisfaction! Profound gratitude extends to the array of tour guides, vendors, the chefs, the owner, and notably the vibrant community woven into this extraordinary venture—an indubitably unique and unparalleled expedition. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Must do when in jamaica!

This was an absolutely unforgettable experience. I highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience the Jamaican culture, including the people and the natural beauty. My favorite activities were jumping into the water and lunch. The vehicles are well maintained. Well worth the price, I only wish it was just a little longer but that isn't a bad thing. The people were incredible from the friendly and timely transportation to the incredible guides who made sure we got to enjoy the experience at our own pace.

Private ATV trip

We booked this trip after reading about it in several Facebook groups and we absolutely loved it. You take the tour with the people you booked it with, in our case it was just the 2 of us. We had 2 guides with us to ensure everything went smoothly. The guides are very knowledgeable and they tell you a lot about the area and the history. After a mandatory fresh mango stop, we went to a swimming spot with refreshing water. The guide took a couple of pictures of us and we could spend as much time there as we wanted. After the swimming, we hopped back onto the ATV and visited a ganja farm with several different kinds of marihuana. The owner explained the different plants to us. The trip ended with some nice food, after which we got brought back to our taxi. I would definitely recommend this trip, as it is a nice way to get out into the countryside.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!

Easily one of my favorite experiences. See the real Jamaica. I enjoyed every second of my tour. The ATVs. The mineral pools. The freshwater rivers. It was amazing! I was never rushed. I spent as much time as I wanted at each location. The views are astounding. Book with them. You wont regret it.

Kent Family Rastasafari Experience

My husband, myself and my 18 year old son went today and had an amazing time from start to finish! Chuckle picked us up and was a safe driver and very personable. We enjoyed our trip there! On arrival we were greeted by friendly, smiling faces who seemed genuinely happy to see us. Our first guide was so sweet and very knowledgeable about all the different fruits, herbs, land, etc. Our ATV tour guides Chris and Miller were also amazing. We loved our time with them. They were patient and didn't rush us at all. We swam with locals and enjoyed some of Ms Michelle's amazing jerk chicken. The vegan meal at the end was superb as well!! Overall, we HIGHLY recommend this Excursion.

You won't regret doing this!

This experience was a highlight of our trip! It was well organized, professional, but most of all, a total blast. The scenery was breathtaking, and our guides,Chris and Dino, allowed us to stop and take things in at our own pace. Swimming in the river was a highlight and an impromptu stop at a local bar to wait out an afternoon rain storm was another added great time. You won't regret spending a day here,and I will most certainly do it again on a return trip to Jamaica.

Absolute Best!!!

Absolutely best ATV tour ever! Jamaica is absolutely beautiful!!! We learned about the history of parish that we toured as well as seeing and enjoy the mountain side of Jamaica. Our tour guides were the best, funny and very informative. The people were very friendly!! After the tour we were provided lunch! I recommend this ATV tour to anyone visiting Jamaica! ONE LOVE!!

Love it!

If you want to catch a vibe definitely do this one! Everyone was so friendly, informative and cool. The nature was so beautiful and our driver Marlon was mad dope. Plus the food was good and we got to try samples. Thank you guys for such a lovely experience

Not perfect but pretty darn good.

I was under the impression it was closer to Negril. Took us around an hour to get to Rastafari. Outside of that, it was pretty darn good. It was fun on the quads. The sites and scenery were top notch. We only wish there was just a little more time on the quads. Highly recommend.

Had a great time!

My husband and I booked this very last minute as we wanted to explore the countryside while on the ATV. We had an amazing time, even when it started pouring! The vegetarian food was very nice as well.

Amazing!!!!

Absolutely love this place. It never gets old. This is one tour I would do yearly b3cuase of it never getting old!

WELL WORTH IT

Ally, Sheldon, and Shane were amazing! They move at your pace so if you want to take your time, they allow you to!! Bring cash for local shops, there aren’t atms near so prepare prior. I loved every moment. I went solo and felt very safe!

Fun

Definitely worth the price and to drive lol. The most fun me and my friends had the entire stay in Jamaica

Fun, historical, with a cooling dip in the river.

It was fun to drive an ATV around a historic sugar cane plantation. Lots of history and fun stops for refreshments and a cool dip in the river.

Amazing experience

What a great experience. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to experience the real life in Jamaican countryside. Everything from the pick up to drop off was great. I enjoyed learning about the culture and especially love swimming in the river. The food was the best food I had in Jamaica and it was vegan, I'm not vegan...lol. Shot out to our amazing tour guides and driver; Jenieve, Allie, Ally, and Spence, you all were amazing and I love your vibe!!!!

Amazing and Unique Experience

What an amazing time! This is a once in a lifetime experience. Miller and Spence were fantastic tour guides. Very knowledgeable, personable and friendly. Beautiful location. Really get to see the beauty of Jamaica. ATVs were so much fun. I would recommend to anyone! We took our 10 year old and he loved it.

A Great Experience

We had a great time with Spence as our tour guide leading us on the ATV safari, getting a sense of the real lives of a Jamaican community and swimming with the locals in the river. Thanks also to Anna.

Great experience!

My husband and I loved our experience. Leroy and Shane were amazing guides. Every stop on our tour was methodical with just the right amount of time. Great people, great food, great experience with the locals and to get glimpse of the Rustafarian culture.

AMAZING, EDUCATIONAL, FUN!!!

AMAZING!! This tour was so much FUN!! Very educational - Ritchie & Colowayne were so knowledgeable. It was so interesting to learn all about the local culture. The Mineral Spring was very refreshing. The landscape was BEAUTIFUL!! The fresh fruit & vegetation we got to sample, and the meal at the end were DELICIOUS. Very interesting learning about the ganja and all its medicinal properties. Our transport driver Clinton was amazing as well. I would DEFINITELY recommend taking this tour.

The HIGHLIGHT of our Jamaican vacation!

This experience isn’t only the best excursion in Jamaica, it might be the one of the best excursions in the world. Of all the travel and excursions we have done, this experience may top them all! Where to start?! The views, the water, the people, the history, the children, the food…oh, and you get to ride in the latest and greatest atvs! The owners have an infectious energy. You meet them, you will agree. They have hosted 1000’s of tours, yet make you feel like you are their first! So warm and welcoming, so excited to show you the beauty of Jamaica. For added adventure, there are all sorts of options to jump into the refreshing water, float in some magical pools, or simply cool off by splashing the fresh spring water on your face. Honestly, we weren’t expecting much from the meal…but it was soooo good! I would come back just for another plate of food :) Our guides were fantastic, allowing us to take our time, and take in all the beauty. All the history and knowledge was fascinating. This place is truly magical. There is visiting Jamaica, and there is visiting “this” Jamaica. Every time we go back to Jamaica, this will be on our list of must do’s.

Best day out in JA!

What an amazing morning! We were picked up from our hotel by our driver Shaggy (all arranged for us) at 8am, he was so informative along the journey, pointing out different points of interest and giving us an insight into to life in Jamaica. We arrived at the experience in just over an hour where we greeted with a rum. Our guides for the experience were Chris & Andre. They were great. Explained all about life in the village, the different plants we can across and took loads of photos of us together too. Not only were they informative they were also, courteous, friendly and entertaining , a true credit to the village. We had a great time driving around in the ATV, had a swim stop and also a beautifully cooked meal at the end. I’d definitely recommend this experience to anyone coming to Jamaica and if/when we return we’ll definitely do it again. Best thing we’ve done in Jamaica!

Local tour in the community!

This is a local tour of the community! I really enjoyed just talking to the people and understanding their daily lives, driving through the countryside and stopping for mangos and other fruit on the side of the road. If you are an adventurer who likes to get out and see beyond the man made resorts and mix with some of the locals, this tour is for you. Lunch at the end was delicious!

It’s a vibe!!! Yah man!!!

Had a great time! A definite Must do experience. Tour guides are sweet and funny. Very accommodating.

Rasta-Afari

Loved this adventure. Tour guide Nick and his friend were awesome giving us knowledge and sharing their culture with us.

Rastasafari from negril.

Excellent tour!! Excellent Guides!! Picked up at the front lobby of our resort.Great way to see the real Jamaica, there was no rush, go at your own pace. The lunch at the end of the tour was very good!! I was a little skeptical about that but it was delicious! Highly recommend!!

The best experience hands down!

This was truly the most amazing tour. From start to finish the experience left us speechless. It was my favorite day and thing we did in Jamaica. The people of the village are so kind and gracious to take us and share a little bit of their day to day life with us. I cannot express how much I recommend this is experience!

Love this tour!

Love the RastaSafari experience! Book it! Priceless experience and memories. Great people and so much fun!

Fly tipping needs sorting

After reading all of the reviews, I have to say we came away deflated. You basically go around in a circle in an ATV and do a few stops. The river and scenery is beautiful, you do learn a bit about the vegetation and fruits etc. I guess the biggest thing for me is that they will tell you about village life and how everyone knows everyone and it is a tight knit community looking out for one another, but you drive past 2 areas where someone has fly tipped loads of rubbish. You would think that someone would sort this as it takes away the natural beauty of the place.

RastaSafari Cultural ATV Adventure from Negril

The trip was fun and educational! The mineral water was a cool and refreshing dip after a long trail of riding and to top it off we went on a farm tour and had a great Vegan meal to top it off

The best fun in JA experience

i would rate it 10/10 if I could! There wasn’t nothing that we didn’t like about our experience with the excursio. From the driver to the staff, it was good vibes all the way. I recommend this excursion to everyone. It is definitely worth the price!

Excellent

What a amazing trip, would definitely recommend. My tour guide was Carlos and he was fantastic and didn't feel rushed.

Rasta safari from Negril

This experience is just perfect. All employees are attentive, Gilbert my Guide is part of the community and really knowledgable of the area. The Rasta safari tour is on an old sugar cane plantation hosting now a Rastafari Community. Everyone is looking after each other. The tour employ a part of the community and the money goes back to the community and help kids and elders. This is as real as Jamaica can be. I highly recommend this tour. It was flawless from pickuo to dropoff. They texted me the day before to let mw know the name of my driver and the exact location of the pickup. Transportation took 1:00 from Hanover( bloody bay)

Great way to see the "real" Jamaica away from the resorts.

Very cool trip, great way to see rural Jamaica and interact with the locals away from the resorts and touristy areas. The spot is about an hour from Negril, so they provided a shuttle for us both ways that was included in the reservation price. The guides were all very nice, had a great time.

A good time!

Deno & Chris were amazing! Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. I did this the day before my bday with my friends and it was well worth it.

DEFINITELY A MUST-DO!

So glad we booked this. Such a great experience seeing Jamaica outside of the resort. Guide "Styley" was very informative and told us about the community of Roaring River. Nice natural spring and clear water. Beautiful scenery of mountains and river. Lunch was delicious. Such a fun day!

Moutain adventure

Climbing the rocky hills and stopping at the swimming hole were highlights. The whole experience was awesome!

Highly recommend!

From start to finish, it was exceptional. The staff was friendly, the trails were amazing, and the overall experience was informative and fun for the kids. Hands down, the best adventure of the entire trip. Highly recommend!

Adventure through Paradise!

What an amazing experience! From the driver who picked us up at our resort, Owen, to the guides whilst at the Rastasafari experience and everyone we met along the way I cannot recommend this excursion more! You get a true feel for Jamaica! You are family whole on this tour. Miller and Carlos were our guides while on the ATV tour and they were wonderful! I wish I could stay in Paradise with them!

Its crazy if you don't do this tour!

We would rate this tour 10/10 if we could. We had the best time. From the time we stepped into the bus with Shaggy picking us up until he dropped us off. He gave us so much information about Jamaica. Now to the actual ATV tour, wow. The countryside is incredible. Carlos and Stylie were the best. We got to tour with the OG's and we can't say enough great things. From tasting sugar cane to star apples and a cocoa fruit right off the tree. We felt like VIP the entire time. If this is the only thing you do in Jamaica you won't be mad.

Wonderful Day Trip!

Look no further and BOOK THIS TOUR - we had a wonderful time! Friendly informative staff, comfortable atvs, breathtaking scenery…and the list goes on. We saw lots of sights and tried things (including jumping in a mineral spring) that we wouldn’t have been able to easily see or try otherwise. Thank you RastaSafari!

You can't come to Jamaica and not do this experience

This experience was everything and more... A true reflection of the amazing culture, food, views and life of Jamaica 🇯🇲. Everything from start to finish was perfect and well organised. There were plenty of opportunities to ask questions, take pictures and experience fresh foods and natural products. I would do this experience 10 times over and then over again. Thank you to the whole team for a memorable day

Fantastic experience

Take this tour if you want to see the countryside and a more local scene. RastaSafari is an excellent-run company. Our guides were professional, knowledgeable, and fun: Clinton (driver), Alecia, Marvin and Kalein They made our day worthwhile and exciting. We highly recommend.
