I love route taxis

I agree with booger - taking a route taxi was fun once or twice, but it's definitely worth a a couple extra bucks to have a private ride with my lady and not have to transfer to a different car at the roundabout. Or better yet, call a trusted driver so that you can get picked up at your hotel and not have to stand on the side of the road.

I don't quite understand the "chartering" a route taxi thing....I mean if you're still using a route taxi except not picking up other passengers, could the same situation not happen as it did in Hussyband's experience? You still don't know anything about the driver. How does this make your ride any safer?

I guess it could happen, but after our experience, we used chartered taxis suggested by the hotel, and in November, will be using board sponsors.

I'm going to put my thoughts down when I get a chance to write.

I have unique perspective as a visitor, resident (but not of Negril) and principal investor in several ventures including a red plate (soon to be two).

I see both sides of the coin so to speak.

Negril is unique due to it's history unlike Ochi, Mobay or Town. Founded by the hippies in the 60s and 70s it tries to maintain that heritage but somehow become more of a "middle" style tourist destination.
