If you are going to Jamaica, you have got to call Shorty! He will take good care of you. He is reasonably priced. He is honest, and he has your best interest in mind. We asked him to take us to Rick's Cafe early in the afternoon, and Shorty let us know that it might be a little boring at that time of the day. He helped us rearrange our schedule in a way that we would get the most bang for our buck.If you ride with Shorty, you have to have him take you to see Captain Charlie!! (He is located near Rick's Cafe.) Tell him Ingrid sent you, and he will know what you mean. Captain Charlie sells neat souvenirs. His souvenirs are unlike anything else you will buy in Jamaica! Shorty can explain the significance.Another must in Jamaica...BB King and the Westerners. You have to hear them play before you leave! They played at Couples while we were there. I'm not sure where else you can hear them...

ShortyTours is a service to use for getting around anywhere in Jamaica. Shorty is honest and reliable. He also took me on some really exciting and unique tours Caves, mineral spirngs. Sometimes you just can call him to get you to the local grocery shops or he can refer to anyone for all that you may need. I was there for two weeks and plan to go back. Shortytours is who I am going to call.
Most tourists travel by air conditioned buses, but not the locals.Throughout Jamaica there are these 'route taxis' that go between the major towns.They are typically Toyota sedans of some sort, and not in the best of conditions (the roads of Jamaica do some real damage to the vehicles).The driver goes about his route, picking up passengers along the way. Most of our travels through Jamaica were in a route taxi driven by our friend, Mr. Palmer.
Driving around Jamaica is about the roads, the traffic, the drivers and the beautiful scenery.I have found the road system in Jamaica extensive, with a lot of paving and relatively few pot holes. Signage and lighting sometimes leaves something to be desired but even when poorly marked the choice is usually fairly obvious. One special danger is a lack of parking off the right of way so when people stop to buy jerk chicken or fruit often their car or truck partially blocks the roadway.The traffic is fairly heavy with an uncomfortable mix of large transport vehicles and speedy little cars.Other than driving on the "wrong" side, English style, the thing that is hard to get use to is the how comfortable Jamaicans are with very narrow distances of separation between vehicles, vehicles and people and vehicles and the edge of the road. The Jamaican drivers are brave and sometimes foolhardy. Add...
The best way to experience the culture and experience Jamaica is getting out into the towns. You can do so by chartering someone to take you around for the day..It usually works out pretty good...You can use KAG Luxury Charter Services...It's comfortable and inexpensive and the guides are nice too....They will take you practically everywhere in JAMAICA.They'll even book the tours for you .....luxuryshuttleservice@gmail.com

Jamaicans drive on the left following the British tradition. You can drive there on your US drivers licence. apart from some north coast roads, the roads are narrow and some extremely windy. Driving in Kingston is not advised.driving at night is not safe and driving along isolated roads is not safe. Please be careful and rethink your decision if you have never been to Jamaica, if one of you is familiar with Jamaica, or is a jamaican, then there would be less problem.
