I got a quote from a 3rd party and the driver has not called me:confused:-The price is very good:)-We leave in 12 days-Bless!!
I would not rely on a third party quote without getting in touch of the driver personally. The quote could be from an older price list (the cost of gas has raised substantially in Jamaica over the past 6 months) or the driver may be busy that day.
There are plenty of great drivers who get mentioned here all the time, and they answer their emails and handle their calls in timely fashion...
I would deal directly with the driver about a quote and make sure the driver is insured to carry passengers (red plate).
If you find yourself stranded at the airport for some reason, you can walk out into the JUTA lot and book a ride to Negril for approximately $20 - $25 per person one way. They will take you to your hotel. It is a shared ride so you will stop at other properties along the route. Airport staff will tell you where the lot is.
Plenty of flexible transportation options are available and negotiable. Fares will vary according to your needs; private charter vs. shared ride, number of people in the party, amount of luggage, destination.
Any suggestions?
Vince...if you are arriving as a single I recommend either Juta or Clives for a shared ride.
If you're arriving with 2 or more people I recommend a private ride with Kenny at kennyjamaica@gmail.com....he will provide an email confirmation of your transportation. I believe he is still $60us (one way) for 1-3 people & includes free cell phone use (Digicel) & beverages (inc Red Stripe) on arrival.
I had very pleasant communications with Talk of The Town
No we are a family of four-the source just called from Hanover to Ochie then back to MoBay.250.00 US-I have a freind that will pick us up from the airport and take us to Hanover.Thanks for the input-Respect!!
Vince...the price is a bit high...but not horrible.
And not to nag you...but I hope your "friend" is legally licensed & insured to carry paying passengers (you & your family)....red plate!
Cya soon!
I wrote Kenny i'm waiting on a return message,from him.I would feel better with him:)-Soon Come!Rob,said you would be pleased to to some cliff diving with us):?!!!Man,he's a hell of a guy you got there:)-Bless
We enjoyed the trip to Negril with Alfred. For the ride back he subcontracted a driver to take us to MBJ, but that was OK. Alfred doesn't mind stops, has a free phone for you to use and will have cold RS for you, if you ask in advance! He also will provide a cooler for your MegaMart purchases, again, if you ask. It was $100 r/t for two.
Vince, for that kind of $$$ have you thought about renting a car?
LOL...cliff diving...No No NO...Rob is actually a fantastic diver...NOT me...LOL!
we liked either clives and alfred for a shared ride. both have new vans and are reliable and reasoably priced. good luck!
Is there a quicker way to get a hold of Kenny?A phone number maybe?Bless!!-Come on Lisa no cliff diving?LOL-Ok how about a couple or a few drinks we all can enjoy?Our kids are more excited on coming down to check out the beach and look for shells-How about the water trampoline then?:}
Kenny is pretty fast with emails...did you email him yet?
kennyjamaica@gmail.com
Lmao...water trampoline would work...have a choice of two places for that now....
Yea, i e-amiled him at 10:50am central time
Vince...I just called him & he said he answered all emails he received today about 1/2 hour ago....maybe try again...
Thank you.I'll try right now.
Lisa, Where is the other trampoline besides Margaritaville??
They will have a trampoline at a new place called Boardwalk (nice bar, restaurant & shop set up) between Our Past Time & Sandals.
Kenny rocks!! He is safe and very informative....free cell phone also if you book round trip!
cinni_you in for the cliff jump and watertramplines at Boardwalk?:)
Give Alfred a holler - I'm pretty sure you will find he can do better (not to slight whoever gave you that price). AlfredsTaxi@aol.com
Well I think we are going with Kenny.Confrim everything tonite:)-He was busy but emailed me last nite and call me.Thanks for the input!
Vince, We don't jump from high cliffs but maybe the lower ones! What cliffs are u jumpin from?
I think we will do Xtabi?I have never been to Negril.But my buddy Rob,I think will point is in the right direction:0-How about the trampoline.O hold on its Kenny calling-BRB
