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.

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 Although, naturally some things are a little out of date.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.

this is a very helpful guide, only reason it didnt get 5 was the makers of this book dont agree with the all inclusive package, so they refuse to review our complex, which i was hoping for.
but still it does its job in reviewing jamaica and the to do`s and not to do`s.

Good cultural information. More resort info would improve.
The guide was really useful to prepare me for my solo trip to Jamaica. A good Patois dictionary in the back and some good background and cultural advice for the island. Read more

Very informing guide with what appears to be precise and thorough information. Not the usual lonely planet superficial approach. Read more

Very Useful
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. Read more
