I've always wanted to go to visit Kingston but, is it safe?

You will invariably be told to be careful when going to Kingston. Because of its past and present history of political violence which is 99.9% confined amongst individuals of each party. It is very rare that tourists are involved. On the contrary they are welcomed, but as in any big city these days you have to be aware of your surroundings and be vigilant in certain areas. That aside Kingston has so much to offer it is certainly worth a visit

My friend is thinking of a honeymoon in Jamaica, where's the most romantic place to stay.

Right here at Malvern I would say, but many couples get married on the North Coast and spend their time confined to the grounds of the hotel or lying on the beach. Take a look at what we're offering and drop us an e-mail. Alternatively you can opt for one of the many packaged deals on offer at your local travel agents.

My wife loves shopping,   where can she buy commemorative china?.

Many of the larger towns like Mandeville just 20 miles from our home has a selection of such goods along with many other items. You will find a  skilful selection of local craftwork that can be bartered for exceptionally good prices..

Can we travel around the island using public transport?

Yes is the simple answer, but if you're not familiar with the country I would recommend the use of a hired vehicle, especially for site seeing and general touring and we are currently sourcing the best suppliers.

In most cases you will not need any vaccinations but it is always worthwhile consulting you doctor before traveling. He may recommend vaccinations depending on medical records.

What time do the pubs close in Jamaica?

Last man out locks up...............usually when either the music stops or the landlady calls time. There is a legal drinking age of 18 in Jamaica. 

Knowing that the Caribbean is prone to hurricanes, when is the best time to go to Jamaica?

Jamaica welcomes you any time but to take advantage of its many activities check out the Events Calendar on the Jamaica Tourist Board site. Hurricanes are not common in Jamaica, the last one was Hurricane Gilbert in 1988. The season runs from about June to October........Jamaica and hurricanes...no problem man!!

I love reggae and enjoy going to clubs and dances, tell me more.

If its reggae you want then your home and dry. There are numerous clubs, and street dance sessions in almost every district with well known artists and DJ's. There are also splattering of beach parties and almost everywhere there is something to suit all tastes.

Will my phone work in Jamaica?

It depends on the system your phone is capable of accessing. There are presently two systems on the island i.e. GSM and C&W. Whilst GSM is air-borne only, C&W do offer landline and Internet facilities.

Are there any ATM facilities on the island of Jamaica.
