Live entertainment late Oct?

[Accompong]

Thank you Accompong for a great response. That sounds exactly what we are looking for! We would love to take a day trip there, we'd love to stay a night but we are locked in with our accommodations, yet, my one son would like to stay a night(he's more into local culture and such) though he knows he'll be paying for a seperate ride back :P What kind of accomodation are we talking?(nothing fancy I know, just a little detail I'd like) That same son is ecstatic about the hiking there, already talking about Cockpit country. What is the best way to keep in contact with you or Linston for further questions and pricing? Does he do airport transfers to Negril? On a slightly different topic, Do the police target foreigners in hopes of a bribe or do they tend to be more tolerable with respectable tourists? I know some of you don't like talking about it and such but I was also curious what our best option will be for any day rides we take, should we bring a few J's with us driving(less preferable option) or will we run into it wherever we go(into the country) Thank you very much for your time and recommendations. Maybe we will see you Accompong! We would love to see your town. Gary, Randy, Brian

Greetings GLF,

I responded to your Private Message and how to contact me further.

Contacting Linston for everything concerning getting you there and back is how you should proceed. Once in Accompong Town, I can help you with all your other needs and wants. Accompong Town is a "locals" experience and you will be treated as a friend and not a target for your tourist dollars.

I have travelled around Jamaica for over three decades now and I know that sometimes Jamaicans and the Police prefer to "grease the wheels" to get things done but I have never experienced the police targeting foreigners. In fact, the police have always gone out of their to help me when needed. Everyone's experience is, of course, different but going around with a notion that you need to pay bribes is not a normal thing (though more common a few years ago).

I look forward to talking with you further.
