I'm a Jamaican and my husband is Irish. This is not our 1st time going to Jamaica, We always stay in the heart of Kingston and my FI has never had a problem EVERY in fact he LOVES it..... Jamaicans are very laid back fun loving people.
If you don’t mess with them then they won't mess with you... furthermore there’s violence every where you go, look at Cuba and Mexico, Travel agents are advising against Canadians to travel there....
Sorry I'm on about this or if some of you find my response strong but, I'm really sick and tired of everyone saying Jamaica is so unsafe and violent. Well that’s my 2 cents anyway..... .
