I have been to Jamaica more than once. Loved the people and culture but as a tourist, I was seen as an opportunity to get money. Stayed at a resort and I felt very safe when I was there. I did hire a driver and was never approached when I was with him.
Posted: September 30, 2023I was in Montego Bay in February. We stayed at the all-inclusive hotel which was lovely. I didn’t at all feel safe walking around in Montego Bay during the day. We were two females and the minute we left the resort, everyone wanted to sell us something, talk to us, ask for our phone numbers, and sell us 10 different kinds of weed products. The hotel front desk was surprised we left the grounds and advised us not to even do so at night. We did have a really nice time at the resort though, the staff was amazing and the food was great. There were day trips and drivers available through the hotel to get to Negril, we didn’t partake but I wished we had.
Posted: September 29, 2023I felt very safe and enjoyed everything about Montego Bay. It’s my favorite place to vacation. Met a local that drive me around and showed me all the beautiful places. Planning to go back again.
