Tourists Get Charged More
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you are a ltourist you are charged more. Have your guide purchase for you. Make sure you ask them if they can get you a better deal. This may help them get a better tip at the end of the tour "get it"! We can work it too!
    Most places charge us tourist double, sometimes triple the price. Go figure! It's a little irritating to me. I would of bought more at some places but I was feeling really ripped off.

    Taxi's: This is another one. We figured it out. If you can gather another two couples. You can get a driver for a van or rent a car. This is cheaper than the tours most of the time. This way you can stop anywhere you want anytime you want. And most the time the driver knows places to stop for you. Check with his local knowledge first . He doesn't get paid till the trips over. Or ask your hotel to recommend a driver. Only use taxi's with red plates.

    Or you can use the tours recommended by your hotel.

    Rasta Man
  • Tip Rating:
  • one of the things that has made negril famous among female american tourists is the "rent-a-rasta" trade. thousands of middle age women come to negril looking for a young good looking rastaman. these rastamen are gigolo. you see rastamen walking along the bay and hanging out in bars, restaurants and hotels looking for a lady who can buy them a beer or a meal. usually they stay with the same woman for several days. when she leaves, they look for a new one.

    What's up
  • Tip Rating:
  • to draw your attention local sellers will call "respect mon" and shake your fist. yes, jamaicans do not shake their hands, they join their fists instead. they also have a very peculiar slang. they do not say "hello" or "what's up", but "ya mon

    Margaritaville
    Tourist Trap on 7-Mile Beach. Does Jimmy Buffet really need anymore money??
    We went there during football season to catch a game, which was cool cuz they have a bunch of big screens. But after the game, during live music, they wanted $10 us for 1 Red Stripe!
    Come on, you can walk 10 yards away to any other beach bar and pay $1-5 us.

    If you have to go there to watch a game, bring your wallet.

    There are many alternatives.

    CLIFF JUMPING AT RICKS CAFE
    While enjoying the sunset, you will be enticed to jump form the cliff by local jumpers. Do not be fooled. the place is gorgeous and it is hard not to take advantage especially if you have a bit of a try it all attitude. Read my words think about it twice.

    If you have to go ,and i encourage you to have a drink there and enjoy the views of the dolphins in the sea, please be knowledgeable of the risks of jumping off this cliff. Visite this informational website: http://www.rickscafenegril.com. It is the story of several people whose life changed for good after jumping there. Don t be fooled, check out the site that could literally save your life.

    Don;t jump for fun jump becasue you ve done it many times before and you know that you could be considered a semi professional jumper all others keep out! it s that simple.
