Bakkayaad Ja Adventures · Trelawny
Bakkayaad Ja Adventures takes ten riders at most on ATVs through the hills, farms and rivers of Trelawny, east of Montego Bay. Pick it for a quieter trail and guides who stop to explain what you're seeing.
Bakkayaad Ja Adventures runs the Wah Gwaan Safari in Trelawny parish. A driver collects you from your hotel lobby, and guests say the commentary starts on the road. At the base you get a lesson on the ATV, pick a bike and head out with the guides.
The trail climbs through limestone hills, plantain and banana farms and cow pastures, with a stop by a river to cool your hands and feet. One guest mentions dipping in the Martha Brae with a fresh coconut; another says the route passes Usain Bolt's primary school and family home. The group is capped at 10 travellers, the smallest on this site.
It shares the top rating here, 4.9, with the Rastasafari day, for $36 less. Two things to know. Bottled water is not included. And the area is still recovering from Hurricane Melissa: a July 2026 guest wrote that the scenic overlook and swing are no longer there.
Your driver meets you in the hotel lobby. Villas near listed hotels can be added by email.
Guests mention rough roads and several pickups on the way.

★★★★★Absolutely beautiful trail, lime stone mountains with natural spring water ponds, plantain trees and yes we saw Usain Bolts primary school and family home. Eve and staff were well informed of the history in the area. This was by far the best 4wheel trail I have experienced.
★★★★★What a memorable experience we had. Iv never done ATV riding before and this was one of my favorite excursions. They were very friendly and we stopped at a different places to look at banana trees, rivers and really cool sightings.
★★★★★Excellent experience. This was my first time ATVing and the instructors were top notch. Will definitely be back my next time in Jamaica!
★★★★★Amazing! All the guys helping out were so great and supportive of each other to make sure all guests were safe and having a good time. It poured down rain yesterday but it made the ride so much more enjoyable to be honest
