Exclusive Horseback and Falls

Take our Dunn's River Falls and Beach Horseback Riding Ocho Rios Tour and two things are certain: you'll have the time of your life, and you'll never want to return to civilization!

Embark on your Beach Horseback Ride and Swim adventure as you're welcomed by your driver/tour guide. Upon your arrival at the Horseback Ride facility, you'll be greeted by friendly staff members who will warmly welcome you and ensure you're ready for an enjoyable experience.

Prior to commencing your journey, you'll receive a safety briefing to ensure a secure and enjoyable experience. Helmets will be provided for your safety. All participants will be riding in a single file formation. Since most participants are inexperienced, the ride will proceed at a slow pace along the trail.

The horses will have the opportunity to trot briefly at certain spots along the route. Embark on a ride through the woodland areas where the Taino Indians once hunted for food. While passing through a natural wetland shaded by almond, coconut, and various other tree species, take note of the ongoing excavations being carried out by archaeologists eager to uncover the region's rich past. Seize this unique opportunity to swim with your horse in paradise, an experience of a lifetime. You will enjoy riding the horse for around 70 minutes during this excursion, which also includes a swim portion in the water for at least 10 minutes.

You will then drive to Dunn's River Falls. The falls drop in a cascade (or steps) from a height of 600 feet down to sea level. They are constantly fed by beautiful, crystal-clear water running down from the nearby mountains and rainforest. It takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes to make the entire climb. There are places along the way to slide down into pools of water, take a swim and climb again. There are local "guides" at the falls who will lead you up. These guides are separate from your tour and will expect a gratuity when you reach the top.

Please Note: Children must be at least 6 years old. Strick weight limit of 240 pounds. General weight checks are done and anyone over 240 pounds will NOT be able to do the ride and your cost is nonrefundable. Sandals are not recommended. Big bags like backpacks are not allowed on the ride. We suggest a fanny pack or small bag that can go across your shoulder in front of you (nothing bulky), in case you would like to carry your phone/camera.
