The Ocho Rios Culture & Craft Session is our first fully interactive market experience. Your guide walks the stalls of the famous craft market off Turtle Beach Road, chatting with the wood carvers, weavers, and spice sellers who have worked here for decades.
Here is what makes it different: when the guide stops at a booth, they can push a 3D scan of the actual item — a handwoven bag, a carved figure, a spice set — to your screen or headset. Rotate it with your fingers (or hand gestures on Apple Vision Pro), inspect the stitching up close, then buy it live through the In-Session Shop. The guide hands your payment directly to the artisan on the spot.
Every purchase ships to your home address, and one hundred percent of the item price goes to the maker. Join from a browser, phone, or headset — the live portal handles all three.

Good to Know
How do the 3D item scans work?
Our guides scan items in advance (and on request) using LiDAR photogrammetry. During your session the scan opens on your device as an interactive model you can rotate and zoom — on Apple Vision Pro it appears in your space, life-size.
Can I request a specific type of item?
Yes — tell your guide in the live chat. Popular requests are woven baskets, carved birds, and jerk spice sets, and the guide will walk to the right stall.
Do I pay the artisan or Sight Seers?
You check out through the In-Session Shop; the guide hands the artisan their payment immediately, on camera. Shipping and tracking are handled by Sight Seers.
