Our first trip to Jamaica - please advise

by Lisa

QUESTION:

O.K....so this is our first trip to Jamaica...and It's overwhelming!! Yet exciting too ...EEEK.

We want to stay ...preferably on the beach...close to Bob Marleys Museum - but is there a beach close...and shopping and crafts.

If I pick a random place close to a beach will I be away from everything else...how much are taxi fees?....are there shuttles....I have so many questions..

I'm bringing my daughter I want some place safe...are there parts of Jamaica I should stay away from.

Please Help....lol. Thanks for any and all information every little bit helps. We are planning a 6 day trip - we haven't made reservations any where yet. Thank you for all your time!!

Hi Lisa,

You certainly have a lot of questions, but never mind, they are all valid - and important too.

I am going to first refer you to my Jamaica Travel Guide page. It will provide you some great insight.

Secondly, I am going to ask that you visit the Visitor Q&A. I have answered a lot of these questions there so I am sure it will benefit you tremendously as well.

Finally, since I am posting this question simultaneously on the website & our facebook fan page, I am also inviting you to follow the responses directly from our avid Jamaica fan base -over there on our our facebook page. I guarantee you someone will have something and somewhere to recommend :-)

Do enjoy Jamaica Lisa!!!
