So you’re thinking about coming to Jamaica? Yesss! That’s already a great decision. But before you grab your swimsuit and hop on a plane, here’s a quick guide to help you get the most out of your Jamaican adventure — CK style.

1. You Don’t Just Visit Jamaica — You Experience It

This isn’t a check-it-off-the-list kind of trip. Jamaica is a feeling. The island moves at a rhythm of its own — relaxed, soulful, and full of life. Be ready to slow down, soak it in, and let the vibes lead the way.

2. Travel Documents

You’ll need a valid passport to enter Jamaica. Most travelers from the U.S., Canada, and the UK don’t need a visa for stays under 90 days — but it’s always best to check based on your country of origin.

3. Currency & Tipping

The local currency is the Jamaican Dollar (JMD), but U.S. dollars are widely accepted in most tourist areas. Just remember — it’s customary to tip drivers, hotel staff, and tour guides. If you’re riding with CK I’land Tours, and your guide makes your trip unforgettable (which they will 😉), show a little love.

4. The Weather Is Hot… and So Is the Sun

Jamaica is tropical, so expect warm, sunny days and occasional rain showers. Pack light, breathable clothing, sunscreen, and a hat — trust us on this one.

5. Internet & Connectivity

Wi-Fi is widely available in hotels and resorts. If you want data on the go, you can buy a local SIM card at the airport or stick with international roaming. Pro tip: your CK I’land Tours guide can help you sort it out when you land.

6. Getting Around

Jamaica’s public transport isn’t exactly tourist-friendly — that’s why we’re here! With CK I’land Tours, you’ll ride in comfort with local guides who know all the shortcuts and hidden gems. No need to worry about directions, safety, or planning — just sit back and enjoy the ride.

7. Try the Local Food — No Excuses

Jerk chicken. Ackee and saltfish. Festival. Curry goat. These aren’t just meals — they’re cultural experiences. Come with an open mind and an empty stomach. And if you’re rolling with us, we know all the best spots.

8. Respect the Culture

Jamaicans are warm, proud, and vibrant people. Be kind, stay open, and you’ll be welcomed with open arms. Learn a few words of patois and you’ll win hearts real quick (try “Wah gwaan?” — it means “What’s up?”).

Final Word?
Jamaica is more than a destination — it’s a whole vibe. And when you explore it with CK I’land Tours, you won’t just see the island… you’ll feel it, love it, and come back for more.

Jamventure awaits. Let’s go! ✈️
