Our verdict

This tour fits a typical Falmouth call (8:00 am–3:30 pm). It runs 3 h; ashore by 8:20 am, you can start by 8:30 am and be back at the gangway around 11:40 am — 2 h 50 min to spare on top of a 1 h safety margin.

Rule of thumb: it keeps the safety margin as long as all aboard is 12:40 pm or later. Even a short 7:00 am–2:00 pm call works.

The operator picks up at the cruise port (it is on their pickup list), so the trip to the start point is part of the tour. We allow 10 min to walk off and find the pickup; look for the ground-transportation area outside Historic Falmouth Cruise Port.

Among the 400 Falmouth shore excursions we track, this is one of the shorter ones (the median runs 4 h); 66% of them fit a typical call.

Computed from the tour's published duration, the distance from the cruise pier to its start point and the typical Falmouth call. Adjust your ship's times above to recheck.

About this tour

Dunn’s River Falls is one of Jamaica’s national treasures. Globally, it is as well known as reggae and equally stimulating. There are few places where the Arawak name “Xayamaca” – land of rivers and springs – is more apt. The Spaniards called the area “Las Chorreras”, the waterfalls or springs and it is truly one of the most beautiful spots on the island. Because it is so popular everyone that comes to island want to see or participate in the excitement of hiking the falls. This water falls is over 600 feet of hiking of the Cascading water falls which is very breath taking and refreshing. We provide a skip the long line service to allows you a quick entry. Also at the end of climbing the water falls you will have an authentic Jamaican Jerk Lunch and after you will get to do shopping for souvenirs, rum coffee and even jewelry if you so desire.
