Jungle wild at chukka adventures' montpelier jungle outpost!

Who could have thought that being in the jungle in the hills of St James could have been so much fun? Chukka Adventures' Montpelier Jungle Outpost is determined to help you see the jungle in a whole new light via river tubing, canopy gliding for the daredevils among you and a whole lot more.

The Gleaner's Western Jamaica Youthlink team got an opportunity to embrace our wild sides during a trek through the jungle and let's just say it was worth the journey!

Ricardo Campbell: "I felt like I was Tarzan while doing the canopy tour. Yow, flying through the air, seeing everything around and beneath me was the most amazing experience ever. Chukka Adventures a di boss!"

Natasha Stewart: "Where to start, where to start! Oh, OK, the river tubing, visiting a mini waterfall that is tucked away in the jungle, the canopy ride or just exploring the nature trail and chatting with friends. A girl can get lost just talking about all the things we did as a group that offered so much fun. I must say there was never a dull moment at the Chukka Adventures' Montpelier Jungle Outpost. People, it is a real jungle out there but much more fun to experience."

Joseph Crichton: "If you are afraid of heights this is where you need to conquer that fear. Being on the canopy gives you freedom and did I mention that it is fun! Well, it was too much fun, if I may say so myself. I think it is a sin to have so much fun in one place."

Chinelle Campbell: "I loved the river tubing. It was so relaxing, as if nature was talking to you. You could hear the birds, the trees, everything! It was very relaxing. We also went to a mini waterfall on the property that was breathtaking. This is the place to just come, let loose and have fun."

Shaneica Jacks: "It was my first time doing a canopy and jungle tour, and, although I was a bit scared at first, once I did the first canopy, I wanted to do the next. It keeps the adrenaline level up. I really loved the river tubing and the falls. Chukka to the world!"

Shanna-Kaye Laing: "Mi nah lie, a Chukka Adventures wi seh! You could almost cut the air while riding the canopy. Chukka Adventures' Montpelier Jungle Outpost is where adventure-seekers must be. The jungle is what you should explore."
