The road transfer takes a small shared group of up to three couples, and activity fees are included. Some options omit either rum tasting or rafting. **For a couple:** For a couple, choose Chocolates & Rum: bar making, rum tasting and shared transport at €139 per person; minimum two, no rafting. Trade-off: Minimum two; Chocolates & Rum excludes rafting.
