Explore the Blue Mountains of Jamaica on this full-day tour, including a fun bicycle ride – downhill! After a drive to the mountains for a Jamaican brunch, stop by Blue Mountain Coffee for a coffee roasting demonstration. You’ll take in the amazing scenery and culture of the mountains as you you coast down the mountain. Stop for lunch midway before a refreshing swim under a gorgeous waterfall!
8 hr - Your full-day tour begins with hotel pick-up, followed by a 2.5-hour drive up to Jamaica’s Blue Mountains. The drive takes you along the east coast, past local outdoor markets and a banana plantation, as well as the historical site of the 17th-century Rio Nuevo battle between the English and Spanish. Along the way, learn interesting facts about Jamaica's past from your guide. Enjoy a Cajun-spiced brunch and feast on beignets (deep-fried pastry), banana fritters, scrambled egg, toasts, steamed vegetables, fruits and fruit drinks, as well as world-famous Blue Mountain coffee and teas. After brunch, enjoy a coffee roasting demonstration before you get fitted with a bicycle, helmet and other protective gear, and prepare for a fun, 2.5-hour ride downhill as you coast along the mountainside! Begin the descent from an impressive 5000 feet (1524 meters), take in the breath-taking views of Blue Mountains. The peak of Blue Mountain – the highest point in the entire Caribbean – rises 7,402 feet (2,250 meters) nearby. You’ll descend at a leisurely pace (approximately 5 -10 miles per hour), with plenty of designated picture-taking stops en route. (If you choose the non-bike riding option you will be transported down the mountain by bus, making the same photo stops as the riders.) As you ride down, soak up views of the dramatic tropical forest with its pristine streams and misty slopes, home to the Giant Swallowtail Butterfly and a variety of Jamaican birds, wildflowers and unique plants, including the world’s smallest orchids. After stopping for a late lunch, conclude your tour with a swim at a pristine, secluded waterfall before the return drive back to your hotel.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
Beautiful tour! The food, views, coffee demonstration and biking were all incredible. I would definitely recommend this tour. Just be prepared for some possible rain as you are in the rainforest.

I had a great time on this wonderful tour. It was amazing riding down the very scenic roads of the Blue Mountains enveloped by the beautiful flora and fauna of the beautiful parish of Portland. The staff was courteous and very knowledgeable. All COVID 19 protocols were observed leaving me feeling safe to enjoy my visit.
Such a beautiful scenery so much to see! You have brunch and lunch provided, both super yummy. They show you the true process of coffee & the living experience. The people are so kind making it an awesome experience. Book with Oshane at Sandals!
My family and I were on a road trip through the beautiful countryside heading towards Buff Bay when we discovered Blue Mountain Bicycle Tours. We stopped and had a perfect cup of coffee and tea served by our host Janelle. Will be back to do the bicycle tour!
The bike ride down the mountain was ok. Having to stay on the brake for 98% of the ride is not that much fun really. The place you stop to have brunch and lunch at is kept very clean and neat. The demonstration on how coffee is made was interesting and true coffee was good, but expensive to me. The guide was very courteous and knowledgeable. Be sure to check how far away blue mountain is from your location. 6 hours of our tour was spent in a van just getting there.... and that's no fun.
