Crime threads...advice for a sort of newbie?

[captaind]

Can anyone explain the taxi situation? Where to get a taxi, which are safe or approved? And finally, I'm still deciding on how to go about money---bring cash, debit cards or those ancient things known as travellers checks?

warmest regards

Cars with red license plates are properly insured and licensed to carry passengers.

A "Route" cab takes as many passengers as they can fit in the car. Rate is 1.25 US per leg. In Negril one leg is the beach and the other is the cliffs (West End)

A private cab costs more (about 1.5 times) but it's a lot more comfortable and once you find a driver you can call him pretty much any time

I recommend Linston @ www.redplate-negril.com and a transportation sponsor here at negril.com

To be fair I should mention he's my son so I may be a bit slanted (lol) Fell free to contact hm or me for any information that will make your visit easier.
