Second disappointment with Clive's transport

[MissBlue]

I quite enjoy the JUTA ride, extra stops and all. since i'm solo i usually get to ride shotgun and chat with the driver, and i enjoy hearing all the happy chatter of the people in the bus as they ask questions and express their excitement about their upcoming vacation, and i kinda love the ride, passing thru Lucea, seeing and hearing all the sights and sounds, even in traffic, and hearing the driver chat and answer questions to the people on the bus about what they are seeing. For me, the second i'm on the ground my vacation has begun, not only when I arrive to Negril; so I consider that time spent on the ride as part of the vacation, not 'waiting for it to begin'.

For me, the second i'm on the ground my vacation has begun, not only when I arrive to Negril; so I consider that time spent on the ride as part of the vacation, not 'waiting for it to begin'.

I feel the same way. Whenever I get home and think back about a Negril vacation, the ride there is always a very vivid memory .... That said, I like a nice van or car as opposed to a bumpy bus, plus I HATE waiting for anything, so JUTA isn't my fav though i've done it many times ....

I did use Clives this past reach for the first time -- most of the peeps I respected seemed to recommend them -- and Clives did not an excellent job both there and back ... On the way back, we had a pimped-out new van, and that was really nice (thank god he was OK about smoke), though he was 30 minutes late and apologized (I think that's a fair amount of time, so no probs) ....

Did have some bad luck on arrival cause we were waiting on two arrivees that had reserved but never made it out of the gate and/or were a no-show. Driver tried to call the fools, no answer, so we did end up waiting like 45 minutes, but even that part was fun, chatting away with a fellow solo tourist and the nice driver (forgot his name, as by that time it had already been a LONG day ....)

I would recommend Clives ....
