Our first time there was in 2008 and we loved it and came to befriend a wonderful guide there by the name of Howard,who we continue to see each year while in Negril. It is a beautiful area with an interesting history and many of beautiful flowers and view. If you would like a day away from the beach and want to venture out of the AI areas to meet wonderful locals, take the tour, you will replenish your soul. Let Howard show you his life and share his knowledge of the plants and flowers in the area and come home with an appreciation of your life. Let him know Bunga said Hi!

HOWARD! He's adorable! My daughter didn't bring her bathing suit, so she wore her Dad's shorts, and Howard gave her his belt to hold them up. Poor angel spent the afternoon holding his own pants up! That's hospitality! We bought some of the stuff he made - and they're our dearest souvenirs! (those bowls from coconut shells, can't remember what they're called ...)

M&G Montreal I am so glad you had such a wonderful experience and Howard is a gem. lol I just brought him that belt in Feb. when we last visited him. WE talk monthly on the phone and every year he either comes to see us or we go to him with all the treasures we can bring. That is too funny, this year he wanted cargo shorts and a belt along with the regular stuff we take. He goes through glasses like water, always loosing or breaking them. You must be talking about the calabash bowls that they use to eat out of and I, along with a few friends of mine, also have his bracelets and necklaces.He is a very wise and sincere man.
