Jamaica

A jewel in the Caribbean’s crown, Jamaica is an island rich in heritage, with thriving cities, stunning mountainous vistas and to-die-for snow-white beaches.<br /> <br /> Boasting a unique history where the creative and political are forever intertwined, capital city Kingston cherishes its rich musical output and flourishing art scene that made Jamaica world famous. <br /> <br /> Elsewhere, the magnificent Blue Mountains have to be seen to be believed – either from one heck of a trek or from the comfort of one of the many swish bars in the ‘hip strip’ of Montego Bay. Teamed with a visit to the lush forests, waterfalls and crystal clear rivers of Ocho Rios, you’ll get the full Jamaican paradise package.
