This isn’t your average food tour. Taste of Jamaica brings you deep into the island’s roots — quite literally — with a hands-on experience where healing meets heritage. Our Herbal Walk and Farm Cooking Tour is a full-sensory journey through the medicinal plants, healing traditions, and bold flavors that define Jamaican food and wellness culture.
Walk the Land, Learn the Lore
It starts with your feet on the soil. Guided by local herbalists and farmers, you’ll explore the lush terrain of a working Jamaican farm. Along the way, you’ll meet the island’s most powerful plants — cerasee, fever grass, guinea hen weed, soursop, and more — all used for generations to treat, nourish, and balance the body.
You’ll hear how these herbs are harvested, prepared, and used in everyday Jamaican life, from teas and tonics to bush baths and seasonings. This is living knowledge passed down through families and rooted in African, Maroon, and indigenous traditions.
Cook What You Pick
After the walk, the experience heads to the open-air farm kitchen. Here, food becomes medicine — and celebration. Working with our resident chefs, you’ll help transform fresh-picked ingredients into a full Jamaican meal. Think callaloo cooked with coconut milk, seasoned jackfruit, herb-infused ackee, and fire-roasted breadfruit — all bursting with flavor and grounded in the healing power of plants.
Everything is cooked over wood fire, the old-school way, and you’re part of the process from start to finish. This isn’t just about tasting Jamaica — it’s about understanding it.
More Than a Tour — It’s a Reset
The Herbal Walk and Farm Cooking Tour is more than an outing. It’s a reset. A chance to slow down, reconnect with the land, and rediscover the wisdom that’s grown in Jamaica’s backyard for centuries.
Whether you’re a food lover, a wellness traveler, or just curious about island culture, this experience offers something rare: a real taste of Jamaica’s natural medicine and culinary soul.
