Wander through Jamaica, the heart of the Caribbean
As one of the largest islands in the Caribbean, Jamaica with its colorful tradition, its seductive natural wealth and its musical mood, is full of precious treasures that wait for you to discover them.
Get to know the much-photographed beaches of the island, which stand out thanks to the harmonious combination of white from the soft sandy beach, turquoise from the crystal-clear waters and green from the tropical palm trees that surround them. Choose your favorite cocktail from the authentic rum of the place, become one with the hospitable locals and indulge in the music of reggae that will keep you company until the sun is disappeared in the deep blue of the ocean.
Visit the largest cities of the island and get to know every aspect of this vibrant country. Pass by the cosmopolitan Ocho Rios with its golden beaches for a swim
in the crystal-clear waters. Head to the magical Montego Bay to see a seductive landscape from its luxurious resorts and impressive buildings and move on to the popular Negril, the place where Jamaica's entertainment comes to life and the fiesta continues endlessly until dawn.
Explore the countless natural beauties of the island and let your gaze capture all the unprecedented images you will encounter. Cross the famous Great River, participating yourself in the favorite of all visitors Bamboo Rafting, that will allow you to admire the wild nature of the place along, of course, with an experienced local guide.
Visit the island's heavenly waterfalls, the cinematic Blue Hole, and travel to the small village of Rastafari, a hospitable place that invites you to experience up close the local tradition and the history of this magical place.
