Spirit of the Maroons - kulturel udflugt på Jamaica med frokost

Din rejse gennem Jamaicas nordlige del afslører øens kultur og historie. Du besøger Charles Town Maroon Museum for at lære om maroonernes kamp for frihed, nyder en velsmagende frokost og slentrer gennem Sun Valleys landbrugsområder for at smage friske frugter og grøntsager. Jada, en af vores lokale specialistguider, fortæller: "De jamaicanske marooner har en stolt og fascinerende arv. De er efterkommere af slaver fra Vestafrika, der undslap fra plantagerne og skabte samfund kendt som Maroon Towns. Disse samfund bevarede deres afrikanske rødder – maroon-kulturen er kendt for sin sprudlende musik, dans, historiefortælling, urtemedicin og mad."Vores første stop er Sun Valley Plantation, en sød lille gård, hvor du kan slentre gennem haver og se tropiske blomster og smage nogle af de frugter og grøntsager, der dyrkes her. Du vil også opleve, hvordan de lokale har dyrket jorden i generationer. Derefter går turen til Charles Town Basic School, en lille skole i hjertet af Charles Town Maroon-samfundet. Herefter besøger vi Charles Town Maroon Museum, der rummer en rigdom af artefakter, herunder traditionelt tøj, våben og musikinstrumenter. Du lærer om maroonernes lange kamp for frihed og deres vigtige rolle i Jamaicas historie. Herefter er det tid til at sætte sig til bords og spise frokost, hvor du spiser som en lokal takket være alle de traditionelle jamaicanske retter på menuen på et afslappet sted med udsigt over kysten.

Coffee farm hike through Jamaica’s Blue Mountains with brunch

As you hike through the misty Blue Mountains of Jamaica, take a moment to breathe in the scent of jasmine from the white-flowered coffee trees that mingle with palms, ferns and orchids in this part of the rainforest. Following the trails, you'll hear all about the traditions and techniques of coffee growing in this region – and why its beans are some of the most sought-after – and expensive – in the world. Marcus, a local guide, explains “the Blue Mountains are special, not just for their beauty, but for what they give the farming community. The high altitude, the cool climate and the rich soil are a dream for coffee growers.” The trail will take you on a leisurely trek up the mountain, past small family-owned coffee farms. Here, you'll learn more about how farmers have been harvesting ripe coffee cherries by hand, to create the mild, fruity and sweet flavour of Blue Mountain coffee, since the 18th-century. And the scenery here is pretty historic, too, like something out of Jurassic Park – think thick green rainforest dotted with waterfalls, valleys and misty mountain peaks. You'll want to keep your phone handy for pics.After a little over two miles of walking, you'll be rewarded with a cooling dip in the Blue Mountains Whirlpool. Marcus adds “don't worry – it's a deep rocky pool with a waterfall flowing into it – not a swirling vortex! It's locally known as the Fountain of Youth, so come swim off a few years.” Round off the tour by making a lasting impact on the local greenery. You'll plant a tree as part of a programme to support reforestation and sustainable farming in this part of Jamaica.

Then, you'll head to Rick's Café, the first restaurant of its kind on the West End Cliffs. Here, you'll have an unbeatable view of the Caribbean sunset – and you might even see some fearless cliff divers plunging into the sea, as well.
