The town of Falmouth dates back to the 17th century and is characterized by its old Georgian architectural buildings. We will drive through the small town and see and hear stories from the past that influenced how the town has evolved overtime. Visit the Greenwood Great House that overlooks the harbor and magnifies the magnificence of the landscape as you listen to the maneuverings of the then running plantation.

We will drive through the town of Falmouth which is noted for being one of the Caribbean's best preserved historic town and is the first in Jamaica to have running water before many major cities in the world such as New York in the United States.
We will look at important landmarks and get some insights on life in the town back then.
We will visit the Greenwood Great House where we will have a guided tour of the house. Trained guides will take you through this beautifully preserved house while giving you insights of the intrigues of the past.

We had the most wonderful day in Ocho Rios to celebrate my husbands 60th Birthday. Two of our group were not very well and we had to change the plans for the day. Ava our guide was so flexible and accommodated all of our needs. I do not know how we fitted it all in, but we saw so much of St Ann parish, we didnt go to the waterfalls or horseback riding and yet we felt we got such a good flavour of Jamaica. We visited a local day care, we visited a wonderfully talented potter at work, we stopped in rainforest and went on banyan tree swing, we visited the rafting river and had amazing mango smoothies, we went to a private beach to swim and try the best jerk and fried chicken. We went up 'high' into the mountains to get spectacular views of Jamaica coastline. Sorry Ava if I have forgotten some of the things we did! It was all made possible by Ava, we loved her company and we plan to go back and when we do we will be seeing Ava again for sure! thanks so much for such a special day xxx
