Land in Montego Bay and take a scenic drive to Negril on the West Coast. Settle into our beachfront accommodations and enjoy a relaxing welcome dinner.
Itinerary
Embark on an unforgettable journey to the Caribbean, where we’ll go beyond the resorts to see the real Jamaica. The island’s vibrant culture unfolds in a tapestry of community and tradition that we will be warmly welcomed into. From Rastafarian communities tucked in the green mountains to village schools, we’ll explore the island with a lens into the day-to-day life of those that call Jamaica home.
From our base along the white sand beaches of Negril, we’ll venture out to see the best of Jamaica. Learn to make soap and candles from a local artist, explore the markets of Montego Bay, snorkel over colorful coral reefs, take a sunset cruise along Negril’s 7-mile beach and experience an unforgettable farm-to-table cooking experience. Each night, unwind in the comfort of a hand-picked boutique hotel located on the beach.
