Thats a pretty fair price in my opinion. Depending on which Blue Hole you're thinking. Brighton or Roaring River? I would think that quote is for Roaring River
The cost from Tree House to Blue Hole in Brighton it's $80 for 2 people and from Tree House to Red Dragon it's $10 per person round trip.

We went out to the Blue Hole in Brighton last week and it cost $40 US. We have gone on several occasions and it should not cost more than that.
The "fair ride price" threads have certainly evolved over the years. Before all the sponsors here, everybody and their brothers kept recommending their friends which often degraded down to a bidding war for the business. Now licensed Red Plate taxis are posting their standard price offers but the problem is still with the "fair" part of the question.Quote:

Well, all you tour operators who have to maintain your vehicles, insure them and pay for Red Plates, now you know your prices are twice as high as someone who takes Ly Shell to the Blue Hole.
Is that person a Tour Operator? Have insurance and Red Plates? A Route Taxi driver going off his or her route? Or, maybe, just a friend doing a favor?
Just curious as I travel a lot all over Jamaica and know what I consider a "fair price" too.
A "fair price" to me is a price I will pay where both the driver and I feel we have gotten the better of the other or (more importantly) we both are satisfied with the price. Cheaper is not always better.

Thanks for the insight.. paid 80$ happily plus a tip. Had a great time and enjoyed our drivers company.
And that's what matters. And $80 is a great price for you received.Quote:
