Joe Cool Taxi has a female driver. She was very good and I wish I could remember her name. We usually tip $20 each way from Montego Bay to Negril. We will also buy the driver a coconut water if we stop for a roadside beer along the way.

When I schedule it's thru one of the drivers listed here under "Transport". The last several reaches we go with Phillip who is very punctual and who is just a very nice person.
His rates are listed and I tip him an extra $10 to Negril and $10 back to Montego which doesn't incur any stops on the way.

Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon, will inevitably come to pass.
I use a "fair price + 20%" rule. I have been around Jamaica long enough to know what a fair price is for most trips. I usually negotiate for a fair price and then add my 20% brawta. This way, if I feel a likkle overcharged, the brawta is less and the occasional under fair price driver gets more brawta. In either occurrence, both my driver and I feel we are getting a good deal.

Free Opinions Offered. No tipping required. Hours: Open when I feel like it.
Accompong, I really like your answer, but please advise, what do you consider a "fair price". This is the first year we will not be using included transportation and I don't know the fair rates.
Thanks!
