JAMAICA'S BEST PLANTATION
TOUR
$72 Per Person (6 Hours)
Enjoy a
45-minute air-conditioned coach ride from Montego Bay through Jamaica's
scenic countryside, over mountains, and through valley's, villages, and
lush tropical foliage. An expert tour guide will explain the details of
the tropical plants and trees you encounter during your trip. You will
pass through sugarcane, pineapple, coffee and banana plantations. Many
people live in the interior, so you will travel through a number of little
villages.
Upon arriving at a plantation, you will be served a delicious Jamaican
country-style breakfast, served in the comfort of the plantation's
pavilion house. After breakfast, you will take a guided walk (or ride a
bus) to Seaford Town, one mile away, and the village of St. Leonard's on a
lazy country road.
A sugar mill in the village is a point of interest and tasting the sugar
cane is encouraged. Also you will visit the local school, where the
children will entertain you with their charming songs and our national
anthem. Then on to the German Village established by German immigrants in
1835. See the majestic old Sacred Heart Mission and view the displays at
the Seaford Town Historical Mini-Museum.
The walk should create an appetite, so luckily, a DELICIOUS, ROASTED PIG
and JAMAICAN BUFFET LUNCHEON will be awaiting you when you return to the
Plantation House. The lunch also features a choice of homemade lemonade
(fantastic!), shandy (half lemonade, half beer), or a rum punch, all
served with island specialties (other meat/fish dishes on request) in the
true Jamaican tradition and hospitality. The 60-pound pig is prepared and
roasted in Jamaican brick ovens right next to the Plantation House, and
will be served with 12 exotic Jamaican vegetables prepared in the
plantation kitchen.
Following the luncheon, you will stroll around or relax on the front
porches with your dessert and coffee and listen to the delightful melodic
music played just for you by our very own plantation Calypso Band.
We take you back along the border of the famous and sometimes foreboding
Cockpit Country, the land of the Maroons. Breath-taking views of deep
valley floors, all but inaccessible due to the sheer cliff-like mountains
surrounding them. Hear the fascinating history of the Maroons, descendants
of the runaway slaves.
