Good Hope Estate | Chukka Tours and Adventures | ATV, Zip lining, river tubing
This is a trip I took with my fellow employees to the Good Hope Estate in Falmouth, it was a day full of fun!
History:
Good Hope began in 1774 as a sugar estate and grew into a village to support the workers after emancipation. In the 18th century, the Good Hope Estate belonged to John Tharpe, then the largest land and slave owner in Jamaica. Aside from Good Hope, Windsor Estate, the extensive Long Pond Estate and a number of other smaller sugar plantations in Trelawny belonged to Tharpe, who had as many as 3,000 slaves to run the plantations. In addition, Tharpe owned much of the prime waterfront property in Falmouth, and his townhouse, now the Falmouth branch of the government tax office, is still one of the most elegant structures in the town. The small village has some of the best examples of Georgian architecture in the island, and the churchyard has many old and interesting tombstones. At dawn, the Cockpit Country comes alive, and the energetic songs of wild birds float gently on the morning mists.

White River Tubing in Jamaica - Chukka Caribbean Adventures
White River Tubing in Jamaica - Chukka Caribbean Adventures
Less than 24 hours after arriving at Franklyn D Resort in Jamaica, we were taking our first excursion. Chukka Caribbean Adventures White River Tubing Safari start at a 17th century landmark, the 'Spanish Bridge'. The safari covers three miles and takes about 1 1/4 hours, during this tour the only sounds I heard were from our group, the river and birds. The unbelievable shades of blue that is the White River and the emerald vegetation towering on the banks is like nothing I have ever seen before.

Chukka Caribbean Adventures-Catamaran Cruise to Dunn's River Falls
The inspiration for Chukka sprang from its founder’s passion for polo. In the early 1980’s, Danny Melville hosted polo matches on Saturdays at his polo field in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. On Sundays, to help the horses relax, the polo players took the horses swimming in the clear saltwater of Mammee Bay. International polo players loved the tradition, as did Danny’s children.
When Danny opened a polo and equestrian center for locals in 1983, he decided to complement it with an opportunity for tourists to encounter horses. The Horseback Ride ‘N’ Swim was born—the first adventure tour of its kind in Jamaica, and thirty years later, still our signature tour. Danny named the company Chukka, which describes a period of play in a polo match. Chukka captures the spirit of adventure and excitement inherent in the game of polo and the childlike wonder inspired by a swimming horse.
A Home-Grown Company Danny remains Chairman of the Board of Chukka, but the management has transitioned to his sons, Marc, Alexander, and Daniel Melville, along with their childhood friend, John Byles. These four partners have labored together to keep Chukka joyful and responsible.
A Steep (and Deep) Learning Curve John and Marc still laugh when they recall Chukka’s first jeep tour, a carefully planned, exciting off-road ride into the jungle, over rivers, and into the wildlife. As the jeep ventured across one river, John and Marc realized—just a moment too late—that the recent rains had left the water level a bit too high.
The jeep stalled mid-river, and with water reaching the doors, John and Marc were forced to climb out the jeep windows to push the jeep and its passengers to the far shore. When the guests returned to their cruise ship, they reported to their excursion desk that their tour guides had provided a truly exhilarating 4×4 tour—complete with a perfectly orchestrated jeep breakdown mid-river! Conquering Fears At a trade show, Marc discovered canopy zipline tours, which were previously unknown in Jamaica.
Marc, Alexander and John ventured to Costa Rica to learn more about this new phenomenon. Banking on the extensive adventure tourism experience, the three bravely signed up for an extreme canopy tour involving numerous zip lines at dizzying heights. The first zip line left a platform at a height of 14 feet and, hundreds of yards later, arrived at a platform 100 feet high in a tree.
Marc soared along the line, arriving exhilarated and ready for more. But after John parted from the first platform and flew over a vast expanse of rainforest suspended from a 1-inch cable by nothing but a harness, he wrapped his arms around the tree on the second platform, began to hyperventilate, and refused to budge. Alexander was left dangling in mid-air, unable to land on the second platform until John released the tree. By the end of the canopy tour, though, all three agreed that Jamaica needed a zipline tour, and Chukka would provide it. John imposed the caveat, though, that each canopy tour would start with a zip of modest length and height, in an effort to quell the fears of any anxious guests.
Chukka’s commitment to its community is reflected in its offerings to our guests as well. Because Chukka tours are designed to give its guests a taste of the real Caribbean, 30% of tour guides are hired from the immediately surrounding areas. Also, ATV, dune buggy, and 4×4 tours explore not only the lush rainforest and stunning trails but also the beloved communities in the area.
The Chukka Spirit The Chukka logo’s colors capture the multifaceted spirit of the Chukka experience: green for lush vegetation and foliage; yellow for the brilliant sun; turquoise for the Caribbean Sea and sky; and red for the heart of the Chukka team.

CHUKKA HORSEBACK RIDE N SWIM JAMAICA - RIDE HORSES IN WATER - COOL EXCURSION - WHAT TO EXPECT
CHUKKA HORSEBACK RIDE 'N SWIM JAMAICA. This excursion was fun, especially the ocean ride! The power of the horses while swimming is incredible, nothing like riding on land. Must do excursion while in Jamaica. The horses are unbelievably docile and easy to ride.
This is a POV video overview of the Horseback Ride 'N' Swim operated by Chukka Tours in Sandy Bay, Jamaica. Nothing can compare to the amazing feeling of galloping through the ocean on a horse. The tour takes place about halfway between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios. It is a must-do experience for those staying at resorts nearby or looking for a cool cruise excursion.
AIR TRANSAT representatives at LUXURY GRAND BAHIA PRINCIPE planned the excursion. AIR TRANSAT was very helpful explaining options.
