Product Description

The Rough Guide to Jamaica is the complete guide to the Caribbean's liveliest island. The full-colour introduction includes the 'Things Not To Miss' section with photographs of the island's highlights from the Bob Marley Museum in bustling Kingston to rafting the Rio Grande. The guide contains detailed and discriminating reviews of the best accommodation, restaurants, bars and cafes - and the latest spots to catch the hottest reggae and dancehall. There is informed coverage of Kingston and the major resorts of Montego Bay, Ocho Rios and Negril, as well as the lesser-known beaches in Portland and the south. Expert advice and practical tips are given on everything from where to watch the cliff divers at Negril to finding secluded waterfalls and mineral baths. The Contexts section provides detailed coverage of Jamaica's history and fabulous music scene from Marcus Garvey to Beenie Man.

5.0 out of 5 stars Going Jamaican? Read this first., 7 Aug 2002

By	Mrs. A. Burns "Burns78" (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Rough Guide to Jamaica (Rough Guide Travel Guides) (Paperback)

Rough Guide to Jamaica is essential reading - the insiders guide - I'd say, to making the most of travelling in and around Jamaica.
This book has everything you need to know from the food to the lingo to finding the real non-tourist hideaways that are all too often missed when taking a package holiday.
With comprehensive and upto date accommodation and transport listings this is ideal if you want to get the most out of your holiday, particularly if you are on a budget.
Rough Guide is easy reading and has all the info you need to know for an unforgettable visit to the island.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Useful, 11 Aug 2009

By	Jenny (N.Yorks, England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Jamaica: The Rough Guide (Rough Guide Travel Guides) (Paperback)

Bought a Berlitz guide last time, however, this seems to have a lot more content and a lot more of what i wanted which is handy hints of local customs traditions, laws etc etc. Looking forward to my holiday now, bet i forget to pack it! Recommended.!

4.0 out of 5 stars Very useful guide to a wonderful country!, 24 May 2009

By	G. R. STANDISH (Torun, Poland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Rough Guide to Jamaica (Rough Guide Travel Guides) (Paperback)

In keeping with the other Rough Guide books...this is a highly informative and excellent book on Jamaica. Although, naturally some things are a little out of date. For example, the book recommends an arts and crafts shop in Saint Ann which doesn't exist anymore.
