Chukka Caribbean Adventures (Barbados) Ltd will be managing Harrison’s Cave from December 1.
This was confirmed by Caves of Barbados Ltd yesterday evening in a media statement, hours after a meeting was held with staff to inform them of the new development.
Chukka Caribbean Adventures is Jamaica’s largest nature adventure tour operator. The company has multiple locations in Jamaica as well as operations in Turks & Caicos, Belize and the Dominican Republic.
In the statement, Caves of Barbados noted that Chukka was selected out of four bids.
“Chukka was chosen based on the high quality of their submission which offered a strong proposal for investment and development of the attraction. The selection of a shortlisted bid was then followed by months of negotiation of a contract led by a Government-appointed college of negotiators.” (MB)
