We have used this company three times now and we have never been disappointed. The airport transfers were always on time and the staff very professional with a family like feeling. My family and I always feel like we are "returning home". We would never use anyone else - thanks Garnet and Andrea!!!
This is the second consecutive year I use Travel Around Jamaica for excursions. This year we took two trips - Luminous Lagoon and Nine Miles. This is the email I have just sent to Andrea Foster, who runs the tour company:
I just wanted to say thank you for once again helping us to of your beautiful country. We all had a fantastic time and could not have been happier with how our trips went. Garnet was a great guide and on both trips he showed us more of Jamaica than we could have hoped for - managing to get us to Nine Miles despite a road block and using up some spare time before our sailing to show us around Falmouth.
We're hoping that our next Hanson/ 'Back to The Island Event' will be in Jamaica again - we think it will be in a different resort though. If we come back to Jamaica, we'll definitely be in touch to organise more trips!
Please send my regards to Garnet, also on behalf of all of our group and thank you once again for showing us around Jamaica.
We were a group 10 students who requested a trip from Montego Bay to Ocho Rios. We left in the morning, the driver was on time and very good with directions. As tourists he welcomed us with enthusiasm! He was able to show us the best places shop, eat and hangout. His suggestion truly made our trip memorable. We had such an amazing experience we requested to take another trip to Ocho Rios the next day, that was also a great trip.
“Service of the Highest Degree!”
In December of 2015 I had the pleasurable experience of travelling with Travel Around Jamaica Tours for a company outreach programme in St. James, Jamaica. The journey was an absolute blast and was made more spectacular due to the driver, Mr. Senior, who was assigned to chauffeur my colleagues and me that day. This, I must say, is a welcomed relief from the usual monotonous tours that I have become accustomed to from other tour companies. Mr. Senior was the epitome of professionalism while striking a perfect balance with entertaining the passengers with stimulating conversation and even participating in the outreach activities once we arrived on location.
The pickup from our office was punctual and all efforts were made to ensure that the projected duration of the tour was safely observed which enabled my colleagues and me to meet other deadlines which we had scheduled for that day.
If you are seeking exemplary service, an entertaining tour, spectacular staff and immaculately maintained vehicles then Travel Around Jamaica Tours is worth contacting. Whether you are a first time visitor to Jamaica, a returning visitor or a Jamaican citizen, Travel Around Jamaica Tours will definitely exceed your expectations.
I heard of this company through the reviews on Trip Advisor and decided to contact them about an excursion to Dunn’s River Falls for me and a group of friends. Right from the outset, I was impressed with Andrea’s prompt replies to my emails and at how quickly she produced a quote for the trip.
The day before the trip I emailed again to confirm and was reassured by another very prompt reply to confirm that all was booked.
On the day of the trip, our driver, Avion (not sure of the spelling of his name) was already waiting for us before the agreed time. When we were ready he welcomed us and introduced himself and said that if we had any questions, we just had to ask. The car/van was very comfortable and spacious - there were 5 of us and we had plenty of space. During the journey to Dunn’s River Falls our driver explained a lot of the sights, recommended local bars and restaurants and overall acted as our guide. It was great to learn a bit about Jamaica! After our excursion he was waiting for us outside, as agreed, and again on the way back he gave us a really interesting commentary about what we were seeing.
I would definitely use this company again and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone visiting Jamaica.
It was an amazing experience exploring the wonderful island with Travel Around Jamaica. Travel Around Jamaica is the best tour company I've so far experienced. They offered an exceptional amount of personal service. They were extremely flexible, and our tour guide had a wonderful personality. Travel Around Jamaica is undoubtedly very focused on comforts of their customers. We had private vehicles with AC at all time. The driver was always on time to pick us up and had excellent knowledge of the country and kept us engaged during our drives to various destination. I highly recommend Travel Around Jamaica as they are truly dedicated to the comforts of their customers at a very affordable price.
We just got back from our trip to Jamaica. We had reached out to several tour operators to plan our trip as this was our first time to Jamaica. Andrea, from Travel Around Jamaica (TAJ) was very prompt and very detailed with her responses. She was available even on the weekends to answer our questions. She also called
around and researched if we had questions on any activities. After we made our reservations with her, Andrea provided a very detailed day-to-day itinerary of all the activities we wanted to do.
When we arrived in Jamaica, Andrea received us at the airport, Even though we had rented one large van for the entire duration of our stay, she had arranged for 2 vehicles to pick us from the airport. One was a 12 passenger Toyota vehicle which was in excellent condition and clean and another van to carry all our bags.
Our driver, Senior was an instant hit with our kids - he was fun and friendly, He always showed up on time, kept the group going by narrating interesting stories about Jamaica and taught us some words in the native language. Andrea periodically reached out to us to make sure we were comfortable.
Our entire group had an excellent time - thanks to their services. We would highly recommend their services for anyone going to Jamaica.
