To the OP, I'd consider a taxi down to the Blue Hole in Brighton, or Mayfields falls which is maybe a 30 minute ride out of town, and you will see the countryside and get a little bit of a "feel" for rural Jamaica.
Mayfield is much further than a 30 minute ride. Just the same, I loved it. Beautiful place. Guys who worked there had some nice high grade if you're into that, offered me what they were puffing on. I wasn't able to buy then, but they did let me rip their finger hash joint. Good times.
