West End Cluster people take note, don’t kill this great day trip for tourists by getting greedy. Getting tourists to leave the beach and the A/I’s is tough enough to have this going on.
This is the best way to see all the great spots on the West End (One Love Drive) and should not be missed. But over charging people will kill this tour quickly.

What do you think of this practice ?
The Jamaicans have a saying, "You can sheer a sheep many times but you can only eat him once."

When times are rough (as they are now and have been for a very long time), it is difficult to teach people to be patient and build a good reputation for service and value to make more money in the long run.

Perhaps that is why Bella Donna has had this place open for a long time and few people have gone there before the Pub Crawl put it back on the map so to speak. Yes, the Pub Crawl needs to constantly evaluate where they take people to insure that the people get good service and value for the tourist dollar.

The concept is a very good one but it too needs to be mindful of how people are treated when they are taken to a business or they too will be tainted by those who take advantage of this rare opportunity to advance their business.

All the best to you Rasta Stan and Betty. Will see you again someday in Jamaica.
