Ocho Rios

Since most visitors to the island don't rent cars, it's not surprising that guided jeep and all-terrain vehicle tours are a popular option for travelers who want to combine some sightseeing with a little adventure travel.

Chukka Caribbean Adventures. Various Ocho Rios area tours are offered in a zebra-stripe safari vehicle. The Dunn's River Safari Jeep Tour ($96) goes to Murphy Hill for a view of the city before continuing to a cattle farm, a small coffee plantation, and the famous falls. The Bob Marley Jeep Tour ($95) visits the reggae star's birthplace in the community of Nine Mile. The company also has guided ATV tours ($91), for those 16 and older, through Chukka Cove farm and past a historic sugar factory before heading to the beach for a dip.
