CHUKKA- It’s Time To Play

Before Jamaica Product Exchange (JAPEX) began on September 30th, CHUKKA invited the Top Travel Agents not to business meeting or to pitch new ideas but to watch an exciting game of Polo. Following the company’s new tagline “It’s Time To Play”, CHUKKA decided before the hustle and bustle of the conference some fun and relaxation was needed.

The socializing started at 2:30pm at the Chukka Cove Farm in St. Ann with Appleton being the liquor of choice and selected delicacies from the CHUKKA Good Hope Estate. Two teams squared off on the Polo Field – Team Jaguar Paw and Team Good Hope.

It was a thrilling match which ended 6-5 to Team Good Hope. After the match everyone relaxed, had some drinks, ate and waited for the after party. Sorry guys no photos from the After Party :)

Our Active Adventures tours at CHUKKA includes the usual suspects : Zipline Canopy, ATV Safari, Dune Buggy Adventure and more. Normally people have the perception that these tours are for the “youngsters” (16 years to 35 years old.). Two experienced ladies decided to prove that wrong.

Last September  Brita M. of the US celebrated her 91st birthday with a visit to Jamaica. She didn’t want to spend her special day relaxing on the beach or sightseeing from a bus. She wanted to experience real Jamaica and so she did. She did the CHUKKA Zipline Canopy.

Next up we have Virigina W. (also 91 years old) she visited our CHUKKA location in Belize. Virigina did our Lost World Canopy tour at our Big Hill Adventure Outpost.

CHUKKA thanks Brita M. and Virigina W. for choosing us for their Active Adventure needs.
