We docked in Ocho Rios in December 2011. Had previously found Ernest Turnbull and had him meet us at the port. My wife is in an electric wheelchair, and his van had a very wide detachable ramp on the back, which worked out fine. Ernest is very knowledgeable and friendly. He took us wherever we wanted to go, and recommended locations also. His e-mail is ernest_turnbull@yahoo.com, and telephone is (876)844 9980. Cost was $200 for up to 4 people, but the van could hold a couple more. Payment is due when he meets you at the ship. We strongly recommend Ernest.

The Jewel Dunn’s River Resort is a new Jamaican beach resort located mere moments from one of Jamaica’s top attractions, spectacular Dunn’s River Falls. We spent several days there at the Jewel, and had a great time.

Dunn’s River Falls. Feb 2011.
There is a wheelchair accessible lookout platform near the top of the falls. No need to wait outfront. It is nicely shaded. Some pathways are fairly steep.

Ocho Rios was one stop on a recent cruise. There was a taxi stand at the cruise port where a helpful dispatcher was able to call an us accessible taxi. We then negotiated a price for a private tour of the area. The taxi we used was from “Juta Tours” so you might also be able to prearrange something. The taxi had a hydraulic lift into the back and there was room for at least 4 or 5 more passengers.
