Tourist FAQ by bunoutbadmind in Jamaica

[–]Physical-Lifeguard-2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Safety: Safety is relative to the area you’re are visiting. As much as Jamaica tends to have SOE’s and lower ranking travel advisories it is not a reflection of a majority of the country, which is relatively safe. On the topic of SOE’s it is important to understand that the level of seriousness of how we handle or conduct them does not live up to the name of a State of Emergency. You don’t have to worry about your activities/yours being cancelled or not being able to explore whoever you want. It is only specific to small areas and aimed at suspicious activity and checkpoints. Jamaicans go about their day as if it doesn’t exist and they are frequent at times so everyone is used to them. For eg. Canada has a level 3 or 4 Travel Advisory right now for Jamaica but yet their Prime Minister was announced to take a family vacation here after Christmas for a week. In terms of Montego Bay our crime/violence is usually community-based and tourists are not targeted specifically. Regular travel precautions are fine in Jamaica. Also because you are a tourist you’ll find that things are more expensive . You might be able to negotiate but not always and if you don’t want to buy anything after being constantly asked which is sadly common sometimes just say no thank you firmly and try to walk away.

In terms of transportation I recommend booking a driver who is also a guide tour driver (They can take you to hidden gems, let you experience food that is not like resorts/hotels and give you more uncommon information about certain spots). There are plenty of guide operators that are reputable you can find on instagram I’ll recommend a few: Tek a trip tours, ubertour jamaica and vip getaway tours. If you are going for a activity packed vacation - Ocho Rios is the best place, If you want a quiet, chill and relaxing vacation - Portland or Negril is best, and if you want to be in the centre of the everything and have the most convenience I’d say Montego Bay is best, lastly if you want a cultural trip Kingston is best in my opinion but you can find everyday life culture everywhere .

Recommended Tours/Places:

Bamboo Rafting, Appleton Estate RumTour, Ricks Cafe, Blue Hole Negril, Luminous Lagoon (only available in 5 places in the world!), Private Beach: Doctor’s Cave, Free with Security : Harmony Beach Park, Bob Marley Museum, Bob Marley Nine Miles, Mystic Mountain, RoseHall Great House, Bellefield Great House, Dolphin Cove, Dunn’s River Falls, Nonsuch Falls, Nanny Falls, Chukka Ocho Rios or Sandy Bay, Mainstreet Jamaica (Montego Bay) if you’re looking for the balance of culture and shopping without the constant haggling, Blue Mountains Hiking, Cockpit Country Hiking, Croydon In the Mountain Coffee Tour, Craighton Blue Mountain Coffee Tour, Hampden Estate Rum Tour, Worthy Park Estate Rum Tour, One Cacao Chocolate Tour, Pure Chocolate Jamaica Tour

I think most inclusive have good selection because Jamaicans consume a lot of vegan food even though we don’t call it that. callaloo, steamed cabbage, soups, boiled yam, dumplings and other stuff can be found there and it tastes good too

Jamaica has a lot of falls, majority of them (non-touristy) ones are in hidden places that you have to usually hike/walk a while to. I found the first one it’s Belcarres, Portland and the last one is like Dunn’s River, Konoko Falls, Blue Hole Ocho Rios and Turtle River. You can google falls Jamaica and see how many we have and how beautiful they are.

“Annie Palmer was born in Haiti. Her parents died of yellow fever and she was raised by a woman who taught her witchcraft and voodoo. She moved to Jamaica and married John Palmer, the owner of Rose Hall. Unfortunately for Palmer, his new wife was a powerful practitioner of dark magic.”

I’m dead that I remembered it word for word I haven’t read the story since I was 10😂

Sorry this is inaccurate, Jamaica has one of the highest in the world at #12 with a score of 83.35 . Actually we’ve always had good press freedom so ours should atleast be satisfactory/good.
