    What can anyone tell me about this transfer group?

    Well, never mind that I have been to Negril half a dozen times before, my friend Lori decided that only her husband (who isn't going, by the way) can decide ably enough what our transfers will be, and this is the company he booked with, so anyone that can tell me anything about them would greatly appreciate it. So much for having a fun ride in with red stripes and smoke..

    So now I have to pay $29.99 to go on a shared bus ride with a total stranger and have to wait for others too, when if Lori and I had just paid FIVE BUCKS MORE EACH we could have gotten a private driver! Yah, I'm a little pissed.

    that is what I would think too..........gonna be one long ass ride.........

    waiting for the bus to fill up at the airport.........always one or two stragglers.....add a half hour to an hour.........maybe more
    waiting at one of the rest stops / bars for everyone to board again.........half hour stop and boarding.......maybe more
    and then waiting to drop off a bus load of people at different locations as the bus makes it way down the beach and up da Cliffs........
    ten minutes times the number of fares.......adds half hour to an hour or maybe more to the transfer..........

    so potentially an hour ride out to Negril will now take...........
    a minimum of 2 1/2 hours or maybe as much as 3 1/2+ hours to arrive at your Resort......ugh
    and that can be the difference between getting there for Sunset........or No Sunset........
    or Happy Hour ..........or No Happy Hour.......
    or seeing the beautiful ride out to Negril..........or not seeing anything cause it's dark out.........
    or getting there so late that you don't feel like going out your first night (hush gerry)

    for these reasons and more......you'll never see this guy use this Viator company........

    because how many times in ones life do you actually go on vacation?

    actually when I used Kenny in Jan/Feb he was only charging $60 one way for like three people..........so that is $20 a piece........
    so it be $40 round trip for each person......plus him gives you a free refreshment and the best tour of anyone.........
    so for a few extra dollars over Viator you'd get superior quality time in Jamaica and a new friend.........Kenny!

    Never used them (never heard of them) Price is reasonable. I don't know why they are talking about "skip the long lines at the airport?" Long lines for transfer services? You may end up with a private ride if no one else reserves.

    I wasn't the one who made them, my friend's husband was, but he's not going, she's going to be spending the first eight nights with me at Grand Pineapple, and after that, I will have two weeks on my own in Negril, and he already did it on his card....I would LOVE to cancel it but I wasn't the one who made it...

    It looks like the $30.00us is round trip...which is something that you did not want...correct?
    I've heard of Viator...but don't know anyone that has used them.

    My two cents...
    If he's so dead set on you both riding with this shuttle then HE should pay your way.
    I know it stinks that you have to abide by his controlling ways for your friend's benefit, but the very least he can do is pay.
    Try to enjoy yourself anyway...
