“The Best Day Ever! Ava was phenomenal ”
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
