The Blue Mountain Peak

Travel to the majestic Blue Mountains, the highest mountain range in the English-speaking Caribbean to enjoy a coffee break, guided tour and lunch at the Asafu Yard. Your journey begins the moment you’re picked up, along the way you’ll learn about Jamaica’s colorful past as you travel by historical sites and local markets. Your first stop, an open air restaurant over 2500 ft. above sea level to enjoy a sumptuous local brunch served with Blue Mountain coffee. Enjoy panoramic views of mist- covered peaks and pristine emerald valleys that provide the perfect photo opportunity. Learn all there is to know about the indigenous herbs and plants that seem to grow everywhere you look and take a look at the coffee plantations clinging to the mountainsides. You will then visit the Newcastle settlement where sometimes, you may see soldiers in training, before visiting the Asafu Yard located in one of the first free villages to rise after the era of slavery. Here, you’ll enjoy a picnic style lunch served in a calabash bowl prior to joining the locals as they sing, drum and dance. Lastly, if you would like to cool down, feel free to take a refreshing dip in a secluded river. What better way to end your day!
