Getting Around & Driving in Jamaica

Transportation while in Jamaica ~ What options do we have?

Exploring Jamaica is part of the adventure — and getting around the island is easy when you plan ahead.

Whether you prefer to drive yourself or relax with a private driver,

we’ll help you find the best transportation options to suit your style and budget.

We can arrange VIP airport services through Club Mobay (Montego Bay) or Club Kingston (Kingston).

Enjoy:

  • Personalized meet-and-greet on arrival by a local representative

  • Fast-track service through Customs and Immigration

  • Access to luxurious VIP lounges with complimentary Wi-Fi, snacks, and beverages

  • Family-friendly “Kiddie Corner” with games and activities

Avoid long lines and begin your trip feeling relaxed and cared for.


Transportation Options in Jamaica

We offer several convenient ways to get around Jamaica, including:

  • Private airport transfers

  • Car rentals

  • Bus or van with driver services

Our team can arrange transportation anywhere on the island —

from Montego Bay and Negril to Ocho Rios, Kingston, and the South Coast. Prices vary depending on your group size and destination.

While local taxis are available, they can be quite expensive, so pre-arranged transportation often provides better value and comfort.


Driving in Jamaica

If you choose to rent a car, please note that Jamaicans drive on the left-hand side of the road.

Roads are generally well-marked, but local driving conditions can be different from what you may be used to — so take your time and drive carefully.

Car rentals are subject to GCT tax, insurance, and liability deposits, which are already included in our transfer and weekly driver service rates.

For larger groups or those who prefer not to drive, a 16- or 25-passenger van with a professional driver is a wonderful option —

allowing you to sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic island views.


Travel Tips

  • Always confirm your transportation before arrival to avoid delays.

  • Tip airport porters or baggage handlers when service is provided (a small gesture goes a long way).

  • Carry local currency or small bills for tips and minor purchases.
