Rum, reggae and rafting<\/h3>\n
\n

Reggae, rum, beautiful beaches, spicy cuisine and lush, green countryside have long lured visitors to Jamaica and particularly the city of Falmouth, one of the Caribbean\u2019s best-preserved\u00a0Georgian\u00a0<\/strong>towns located on the island\u2019s northern coast.<\/p>\n

On an\u00a0MSC Caribbean and Antilles cruise<\/strong>\u00a0to Falmouth, you\u2019ll have the opportunity to observe how the oldest buildings in the city centre – the clock tower, the Victorian market, the courthouse and Vermont House, all dating from the late 18th and early 19th centuries – stand in contrast to the newly built port.<\/p>\n

During colonial times, Falmouth was a flourishing port. Ships loaded with sugar and rum would sail to Britain thus Falmouth has become famous for the different varieties of rum produced in the distilleries scattered around the city.<\/p>\n

To get a glimpse of plantation life, and taste some rum in the process, join an\u00a0MSC excursion\u00a0to the\u00a0Good Hope Estate<\/strong>, with its impressive\u00a0Great House<\/strong>\u00a0and colonial village.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

Originally established in the mid-1700s to serve as a\u00a0sugar plantation<\/strong>, the estate spans a total of 2,000 acres and is home to several buildings, most of which have been lovingly restored to their former glory.<\/p>\n

Or combine nature and history on a relaxing\u00a0guided bamboo rafting<\/strong>\u00a0trip along the Martha Brae River, passing clusters of whispering bamboo and ferns along the 3-mile journey. During this\u00a0MSC excursion, you\u2019ll visit St. Peter\u2019s Anglican Church, one of the oldest and largest in Jamaica, before reaching the charming village of Martha Brae. It was founded by a plantation owner in 1762 when he sectioned off part of his estate.<\/p>\n

Beyond Falmouth, venture out on an MSC excursion to Ocho Rios and\u00a0Dunn\u2019s River Falls<\/strong>, where you\u2019ll be guided up the 600-foot cascading falls in an unforgettable experience. Or take a chairlift up 700 feet of mountainside through the tropical forest canopy for an exhilarating\u00a0bobsled run<\/strong>\u00a0full of twists and turns down the mountain.<\/p>\n

For the equestrians among you,\u00a0ride bareback<\/strong>\u00a0into the Caribbean Sea on an\u00a0MSC excursion\u00a0that takes you along the scenic Jamaican coastline before plunging into the water for a refreshing swim with your horse.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
