13. Appleton Rum Estate & Black River Safari Private Guided Combo all day tour

Black River

The Great Morass is Jamaica’s largest surviving wetland and at 125 square miles, taking a boat tour along the swamp’s main waterway is the best way to experience it. The Black River Safari in Jamaica includes a 90-minute scenic ride up and down the river with a local guide showcasing the true beauty of the island. Explore towering mangrove trees and lush plant life, while surrounded by rare swamp animals, like the endangered American crocodile sunning alongside the banks or over 100 species of birds in their natural habitat. Look out for whistling ducks, egrets and cinnamon-colored jacanas and spot for local fishermen catching crabs on long and thin, traditional canoes.

With your rum expert guide, visit the aging house with its oak barrels and see the copper pot stills that give Appleton its rich flavor.
