Unfortunately there is no public transport serving downtown Montego Bay or the strip, and consequently any tourist walking the streets will be assailed with offers by passing taxis.

Be prepared to haggle and always settle the price before you get in. However, if you're spending most of your time on the strip, you can easily get around on foot.

More than eighty percent of visitors to Jamaica arrive at Donald Sangster International Airport, three miles east of the town centre and a mile from Gloucester Avenue. It has a 24-hour cambio and a branch of the NCB bank, a tourist-board desk (daily 9am-10pm) and numerous hotel, ground-transport and car rental booths.

Luggage trolleys aren't permitted past immigration, but the official red-capped porters will carry your bags for a small charge (J$20 per bag).  

Larger hotels provide free airport transfers, but you can charter a taxi from any of the omnipresent JUTA drivers - the trip to Gloucester Avenue, Queens Drive or downtown should cost no more than US$10. If traveling very light you can take one of the local shared taxis that leave from the petrol station past the airport's car park, which charge J$30 for the same journey. There is no public bus service from the airport.
