Jamaica?

(1/4) > >>

So, Nick and I have booked 7 days in Montego Bay, Jamaica for our honeymoon. I have:

A) Never been to Jamaica
B) Never been outside of the U.S.

and

C) Want to have fun, see sights, drink in all the beauty, culture and wildlife possible without being a bumbling idiot, getting ripped off or both.


Anyone have any travel tips? Recommended companies to book excursions through? Must-see places? Anything?  :?

So far, I know that I definitely want us to go to Rockland's Bird Sanctuary but that's all I'm absolutely sure of. It sounds absolutely magical. On the fence about Dunn's River Falls only because a coworker has said that most excursions there are incredibly overpriced and we live in an area that has its fair share of waterfalls.

Fortunately for you, two of my friends just honeymooned in Jamaica last week!  I'll relay the question and tell you what they say.

Loki:
...this is why I love the Internet.

Try not to be obnoxious to the locals (you probably won't be), be wary about any place touting high cuisine because a lot of it is the usual suspects shipped in from the U.S. (between our government's subsidies and commercial food production we wrecked Jamaica's local agricultural markets and abilities), and have fun. While there are problems, Jamaica is a beautiful place last I knew, and could use your dollars. Congratulations on the wedding by the way.

Oh and I suppose this is probably something you've already done, but make sure your passports are in order.
