Bioluminescent lagoon was fun experience. - Was intrigued to see the blue bioluminescence of the micro organisms in the water. They are completely beautiful to see when someone is swimming or jumping in the water. Once in a lifetime experience.

A must-do - What a wonderful activity! Errol picked us up from our hotel on time to bring us to the lagoon. He gave us a run down of Jamaica on the way in. We were offered rum punch or water upon arrival at the location where we waited a short time for other folks. The boat was a little loud but once we’re in the lagoon, the engine was turned off along with the lights. There, among our tour boats operating in the area, we use the orange life jackets as flotation devices and jumped in. Highly recommend.

Strongly recommend for Nature lovers - Jamaica came calling, so I just had to return after my first visit in May. As a solo traveller, I needed to feel safe, so I choose Esteentours because on my first trip I booked the Luminous tour with them, it was fun, fulfilling and met all my expectations If you love and appreciate nature especially marine biology, you will find this tour spectaular as you engage with mother nature in the glistening water. So on my next visit I just had to do it again and I was happy. The water was blue, just like I think it is to be. Try placing your feet at the bottom of the water. . It is surprisongly smooth. I strongly recommend! For best results and unforgetable experience and luminous pictures, the weather must be ideal as it is dependent on Mother Nature's activity.

Lackluster Lagoon Tour - This is not Glistening Waters. I unknowingly purchased the wrong location. I purchased 75 tickets for my group. I was not aware there were multiple locations/tours. I had hyped up Glistening Waters to my group. Ordered the tix. They picked us up took us to some rinky-dink location. No food. Nothing but water and rum punch and mosquitos. My group got ate up. The water fit my first group was not as luminous. The second group was taken to a different area and had a better experience be use the water was warmer. I was thoroughly disappointed for my guests.

Not to good - we were the only guests and hoped to have other people there for a better experience but there weren't. Not great experience & the guides were okay but we aren't water people. It was actually kinda scary & awakward being in the water at night with only 3 guides in the middle of nowhere. make sure other people besides guides or on the boat for a better experience. also we were not offered life jackets.

research the algae first, and you'll find it's not safe to swim in. - the algae that glows is toxic to plants and animals, and shouldnt be touched, there is a reason why locals dont swim in the water at night.

BAIT and SWITCH, Misleading - I booked this tour knowing this is a LUMINOUS LAGOON GLISTENING WATERS night-time tour but instead we were taken to Buzzo's Guest House by the sea. Not the GLISTENING WATERS LUMINOUS LAGOON. This was a bait and switch. Very misleading information by Esteen Transfer, Tours & Photography Ja. There's only one luminous Lagoon in Jamaica and i believe there's only one LUMINOUS LAGOON GLISTENING WATERS as well. By them using other company's name for their gain is unethical and untruthful.
