About this activity

In this Jamaican vacation excursion, you’ll travel to a working Jamaican plantation and sample some of the finest fruits on the island, as well as enjoy a traditional Jamaican meal. Nestled in the foothills of the Catadupa Mountains, the Croydon Plantation is a kind of living museum. Croydon is the birthplace of National Hero Sam Sharpe, the infamous slave leader behind the Jamaican Baptist War slave rebellion.

Try the plantation's tropical fruits in season and enjoy a delicious Jamaican buffet in the tropical atmosphere of the lush green mountains of St. James Parish. Relax in this Jamaican tropical paradise with a glass of fresh punch before returning to your Montego Bay hotel.

I had an amazing time! The drive kept us safe and did an excellent job getting us there and back! The tour guide was funny and very educational! I learned a lot and the best part was the surprise of visiting a private elementary school! The food at the end that the lovely ladies cooked for us was THE best Jamaican food I have had all my life!!!!! I even got to meet the men on the plantation that worked there and they were very friendly! I would definitely suggest future tourist to book this tour because it was full or history, culture, comedy, and love!!!

The plantation itself way very fun. Lots of different fruit trees/bushes to see. You get to taste lots of different stuff along the way. Everything is clearly marked, clean, and easy to navigate. Our tour guide Alicia was excellent as well. The reason for the 4 stars was because of a VERY awkward stop on the way up the mountain to the plantation. We stopped at a primary school to see how the local schools looked and how the kids learned. This in and of itself isn't bad, but the tour bus was split into two group and each marched in front of a class. The next 10 minutes were filled with awkward silence and blank stares from the children. Any attempted interaction from the tourists were met with silence from the kids. I could hardly blame them. If I were a 5 year old kid and a bunch of tourists suddenly came into my classroom, I wouldn't know what to say either. Beyond the awkward stop at the school, I'd recommend the tour. The meal at the end was the best meal of our vacation and the coffee was top notch.

The Croydan Plantation was interesting seeing all the different fruits and plants that grow in Jamaica. The lunch was very good, wished that we could have had seconds. The negative is that the tour lasts 6 to 7 hrs but about 4 or 4 1/2 hrs of it is spent either going to or from the plantation. The roads are terrible, plenty of potholes and very winding roads on the way there. At the end of the day you will feel that you have been in a roller coaster for 4 hours. Our tour guide said to us are you ready for a butt massage today. That should be a forwarning of what to expect.
