Jamaica Travel Agent Specialist

Jamaica has its own island vibe, which makes it a great place to focus on for travel. As a Jamaica travel agent specialist and advisor, I know you’ll love your island adventure. Therefore, I’m always excited about arranging travel to this one-of-a-kind Caribbean island locale. Like all Caribbean islands, Jamaica boasts a beautiful geography with mountains, rainforests, and beaches with coral reefs. The majority of its all-inclusive resorts are concentrated in Negril, which is well-known for its diving and snorkeling spots, and Montego Bay, which is recognized for its British colonial architecture. The Bob Marley Museum, which honors the well-known reggae artist, is located in Kingston. Jamaica is a stunning, vibrant country that offers much more than just palms and beaches. The island maintains an attitude - a personality that is both resonant and receptive. It is a soulful land of vivid colors, magnetic rhythms, and unending creativity. Away from the coast, there are stunning mountains and rivers, tumbling waterfalls, and savannah grasslands covered with cacti. There is undoubtedly plenty of white sand and an aqua sea to enjoy as well. This lush natural setting serves as the backdrop to the island's interesting and rhythmic cultural past - exemplified in the island's exploding reggae scene. The past influences the island’s forceful expression of its artwork and the strikingly distinctive flavors of its food as well.The odds of crime are quite slim, as the Jamaican government has invested millions to ensure that the island treats its tourists fairly. As the origin of the all-inclusive hotel, Jamaica has developed into a popular destination for travelers who wish to go directly from the airport to the beach without ever leaving their hotel grounds. However, if you want to venture off the resort grounds, I can help you do so, as the island is brimming with top-notch attractions. Eating and drinking are pleasures on the isle as well. You can enjoy Blue Mountain coffee and dishes, such as conch soup, and delicious foods sold at roadside stands. Feast on grilled lobster served up by the sea.The "big three" resorts of Montego Bay, Negril, and Ocho Rios account for the majority of tourism in Jamaica. Montego Bay is a bustling commercial city with a tourist strip lined with hotels, pubs, and restaurants, as well as groomed golf courses and luxurious all-inclusive resorts that dominate the coast to the east. Negril is younger, more laid-back, and has a long-standing reputation for an energetic nightlife. Its low-rise hotels are strung along magnificent white sand beaches and sit next to stunning cliffs and scenery. Ocho Rios, which epitomizes high-impact tourism, was designed and built in the 1960s - offering the best combination of sun, sand, and sea. Its tourism industry is unquestionably robust, and you'll be close to a number of top sights, including the well-known Dunn's River waterfall.I know, as a Jamaica travel agent advisor, that the best way to experience Jamaica, is to plan a trip. Make it your goal to do so today. I can help you start planning the perfect holiday. Give me a call or email me now.

Dominican Republic Travel Agent Expert

I am always excited to book travel for trips to the Dominican Republic. There is no better escape to recommend. As your Dominican Republic travel agent professional, I can book a trip that will meet both your expectations and plans for a rewarding escape and holiday.The Caribbean nation of the Dominican Republic is located to the west of Haiti on the island of Hispaniola. It is renowned for its golfing, resorts, and beaches. Its landscape consists of hills, grasslands, and rainforests, including Pico Duarte, the tallest mountain in the Caribbean. The Gothic Catedral Primada de America in Santo Domingo's Zona Colonial area is a five-century-old Spanish landmark. Therefore, you can enjoy both history and beach life when you land in the Dominican Republic. If you’re a golfer, you will, indeed, find this an idyllic location to hone your golf skills while experiencing the island’s tranquility.The good news is that you don’t have to confine yourself to a beach resort if you don’t want to. You can visit many popular sights in DR as an independent traveler. If you desire to embrace beach life, but want to avoid the crowds, you might consider heading toward the remote corners of southwest DR.When you take this route, you’ll discover the breathtaking sands of the Jaragua Peninsula. Also, you’ll find more accessible beaches scattered around the Samana Peninsula. Samana is also a great spot to check out the humpback whales that migrate each winter to Bahia de Semana.You might also take a trip to Las Terrenas, the Samana Peninsula’s liveliest and most vibrant town and resort. Other beaches in the area that are well worth seeing include Las Ballenas, Coson, and Bonita. In addition, you’ll find cays off-shore that are homes to underwater caverns, including Dudu Cave. Along Pueblo de los Pescadores, close to the water, eateries and bars abound that feature open-air seating.Of course, no visit to DR is complete without seeing the capital of Santo Domingo, a place that is both urban and modern but also offers plenty of historic attractions and churches. I suggest you visit Zona Colonial to learn more about the capital and its intriguing sights.You don't need to look very far if you're looking for a little more adventure and outdoor life. The largest mountain range on the island, the Cordillera Central, offers a breathtaking backdrop for multi-day hikes through the wilderness to the summit of Pico Duarte, the tallest peak in the Antilles. You’ll also like your treks to Jarabacoa, a resort town that features water sports and some amazing cascades.I must encourage you to visit El Limon, a waterfall hidden in the Samana Mountains. You can get there on horseback. This waterfall represents one of the loveliest spots on the island.I know you’re going to love DR as much as I like serving as a travel agent expert for the Dominican Republic. Let me plan a trip that you soon will not forget. Give me a call today and let’s begin planning your travel itinerary now.

Fabulous

I am big shopper and find my way to Miami every few months to visit the Design District and shops in SoBe. Over the past twenty years I have probably stayed in thirty hotels in Brickell and Miami Beach but always like to try my hand at a new property to switch things up. While my last travel advisor, Miss Ginger, retired, I was nervous to try someone new out. Let me just tell you, Matt is young and vibrant, eager to help cater to your every need. He chose the best flight times, hotel, and boat charters and kept in contact with me throughout the whole process. He definitely has a taste for luxury so keep that in mind when choosing to work with him (a plus for me but maybe not for a backpacker??).
