The rum tour itself was really interesting and informative. Our Driver (Mr. Claude) however, was the main highlight. He was on time, very courteous, made sure we had everything we needed and even took time to tell us about some of the areas on the way to and from the Appleton Estate. Will definitely recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Appleton Rum Estate in Jamaica with Claude as our driver. While he did not give the tour, he provided us with a safe and comfortable drive from Montego Bay to the estate. The drive itself was a scenic and enjoyable experience, as Claude pointed out various landmarks and shared interesting facts about Jamaica's history and culture. As we left Montego Bay, we passed through small towns and villages, and Claude pointed out the various types of crops being grown in the area. Upon arrival at the estate, we were greeted by our tour guide who took us on a tour of the facilities, including the distillery and aging rooms. We also had the opportunity to taste several different varieties of Appleton Rum and learn about the different flavors and aromas that are unique to each blend. If you ever get a chance to take this tour ask for Claude as he is the best and he made us feel so comfortable, when I return to Jamaica I will ask for Claude

This tour was the best part of our Jamaican experience. Claude is amazing, knowledgeable and extraordinarily detailed in his tours. He took us on the back roads through the mountains and shared history, culture and the way of life for locals. The drive was comfortable so the hour or more that the journey took seemed like minutes. I do not believe we had a single dull moment. My husband and I will seek out Claude’s for tours on future Jamaican visits.
