Martha Brae Review
safiyam2016, September 2026
My son and I really enjoyed Martha Brae. Surprisingly, he enjoyed it even more than I expected. Since we did it on his 17th birthday, I worried it might not feel exciting enough — but he thought it was “cool” and a perfect wrap‑up to our culture‑based Jamaican trip. Leon was professional, easy to be around, and clearly takes pride in what he does. His vehicle was well maintained, he kept us comfortable the entire time, and he even shared some meaningful birthday wisdom with my son. He’s the type of business owner you stay connected with. If you plan on visiting Jamaica again, Leon is absolutely someone you’d want driving you — safe, reliable, and genuinely invested in making sure you enjoy the island. All in all, Martha Brae was a good experience, especially if you’re looking for a more "laid‑back" rafting vibe and a less time/energy consuming day trip.

The guy to drive you through Jamaica
Daniela B, July 2026
Leon is an amazing professional. He took me, my wife and son to Martha Rae bamboo rafting tour. He told us many things about Jamaica culture during the drive. We learnt a lot. He loves his country and love to interact with customers. He was so kind to our son. A lovely guy.
