Cycling Tour of Jamaica - 5 Day - 4 Night Biannual (Road Bikes)

DAY 1 : ARRIVAL

Montego Bay Airport (MBJ)

We highly recommend to arrive on the earliest flight you can get into MBJ airport.

Upon arrival go to Desk8, Holiday Services for your airport transfer to Negril

DAY 2: Negril to Southcoast and interior 52 miles cycling

Travel on the southside of Jamaica to areas rarely seen by tourists. It's an in-depth visit to the interior of the island and the "real" Jamaica. There are scenic views of the Caribbean with smooth gently undulating, roads. We will be riding through a lot of sugar cane plantation country and of course stop to sample some too. Sugar cane juice provides natural energy from the source.

DAY 3 : Negril to Montego Bay: 56 miles cycling

A scenic ride with a few rollers, along the northcoast of the island. We start along the southcoast and then return to the northcoast to enjoy coconuts with Sugar, the vendor who has been serving our tours since 2009 in the Lucea Market. Drink fresh coconut water straight from the nut and walk through the farmers market. We then head to the tourism capital of the island of Montego Bay.

DAY 4: Montego Bay to Ocho Rios: 60 miles cycling

Today sees us heading along the northcoast of the island, along perfectly paved roads, that goes through historic places like Runaway Bay, where slaves escaped by boats, and Discovery Bay where Christopher Columbus first set foot on Jamaican soil. There are a few climbs along the way!

Even those doing the shorter distance get to challenge themselves! We stop at the Joe James Gallery where school children come out to sing and we have a visit from a nearby orphanage (our official charity).

After lunch there is an option to stop at the island's number on attraction: Dunns River Waterfalls. (Entrance fee not included) Here the water cascades from 660ft straight into the warm Caribbean sea, and we have the challenge to climb to the very top! Its as exhilarating as it is invigorating and not to be missed!

DAY 5: DEPARTURE

Transport from Holiday Inn Sunspree to Montego Bay airport
