Private transfers from Sangster International Airport
Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay handles most of Jamaica's holiday flights. The Hip Strip and the Rose Hall resorts are just 10 to 20 minutes away, but the island's most famous beaches are further: Negril and Seven Mile Beach about an hour and a half west, and Ocho Rios a similar distance east.
For those longer drives a private transfer is worth it: an air-conditioned vehicle to yourselves, a driver who knows the North Coast Highway, and the freedom to stop on the way.
