About This Tour

Cruise vacations are often shared with family — multiple generations, kids of varying ages, in-laws, friends-as-family. When your cruise group hits port in Ocho Rios, the last thing you want is to split into a 50-person stranger group on a packed shared excursion.

This is the alternative: charter your own private catamaran for your cruise group. Up to 20 guests in your party, on your own boat, with a dedicated crew, on a schedule that fits your ship's specific port time.

Cruise port pickup at the gangway → snorkel a private reef stop → climb Dunn's River Falls together → premium open bar on the cruise back → return to your ship guaranteed 90 minutes before sail-away.

We coordinate with your specific ship's stated arrival and departure times — no shared boat compromises, no rushing through the falls, no waiting for the slowest swimmer in a stranger group.

Compatible with all major cruise lines: Royal Caribbean, Carnival, NCL, Disney, Princess, MSC, P&O, Holland America, Celebrity, Costa, Virgin Voyages.

Save 50–80% compared to your cruise line's private shore excursion — same boat, same falls, better atmosphere.

Departure Point: Ocho Rios Cruise Port (5-min walk from your ship's gangway)
Group Size: 1–20 guests (larger groups up to 60 accommodated at extra rate)
Boat: Private luxury catamaran (your group only)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Daniel and Yoking are two amazing brothers to look out for if you are going snorkelling with this company. Yorking ensured everyone got into the water (even the jittery ones!) and swam right by us holding and guiding us. Loved the experience!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with Boat Trips Club! Everyone took care of us really well. There was so much space on the boat to lounge, relax and put our stuff away. We had a whole day excursion and went to the a shallow pool and Saona Island. Everyone would ask if we needed anything at all times. Highly recommend the service. It was the best boat experience I’ve had.
