Everything we ask of a partner, we already do ourselves.
MAPL Tours Jamaica is an operator. On the experiences we run, our name is on the itinerary, our driver is at the airport, and the guest’s whole day is ours from pickup to drop-off. Twenty-two experiences and forty-four restaurants and sites sit on the site today — ours and other people’s — across ten parishes of road.
So nobody has to explain the job to us. The early start. The party that books for four and turns up with six. The rain that moves everything an hour to the left. We would rather put your day on the site than invent our own version of it, and there is far more worth doing on this island than we run ourselves. We know that because we drive it — you cannot spend that much time on the road without passing somebody doing something better than what the lobby desk is selling.
Who we work with
01
Guides and creators
You run something worth travelling for: a jerk pit, a river trip, a studio session, a hike you know better than anyone. You want guests without living inside a booking inbox.
02
Tour companies
You already operate at volume and want another channel that fills seats without discounting your product or handing your guests to a reseller who renames it.
03
Drivers and transport operators
You run licensed, insured vehicles and want steady itinerary work and airport runs rather than chasing fares at the terminal.
04
Restaurants and attractions
You want to be on the itinerary before guests arrive on the island. Listings are free, guests pay you directly at your own price, and we take nothing.
How it works
Four steps, and no cost to find out.
Tell us what you run
The form below, or an email. What the experience is, where it happens, how many guests you can take, and what you charge.
We come and do it
Someone from MAPL Tours books it like a guest would and goes. No clipboard, no inspection. We want to see the day a traveller would actually get.
We build the listing
Photography, the write-up, pricing and the booking flow are ours to build. You approve it before it goes live, and it stays yours: your name on it, not a white label.
Guests arrive
Bookings land with the details you need: names, numbers, dates, dietary notes, pickup point. You deliver the experience. We handle everything around it.
Who does what
No good day belongs to one operator.
You run your experience. We run the road — same as we do for our own. Where MAPL Tours Jamaica is the operator, the page says so. Where you are, your name is on it.
MAPL Tours handles
- Listing, photography and the write-up
- Payments, receipts and refunds through Stripe
- Marketing across the site, search and social
- Guest questions before and after the day
- Private transport to you and back
- Cancellations and reschedules
You handle
- Delivering the experience as listed
- Your own licensing, permits and insurance
- Safety briefings and appropriate equipment
- Telling us early when something changes
Commission and payout terms depend on what you run and how often, so we agree them with you directly rather than printing a number that would not fit your operation. Nothing is exclusive — keep selling your experience anywhere else you already do.
What we look for
We say no more than we say yes, and that is the point.
It has to be real
Something you would take your own family to. We are not looking for another catamaran with a rum bar, and travellers can tell the difference before they book.
It has to be safe
Current licensing and insurance for what you run, equipment that is maintained, and a briefing guests actually understand. We will ask, and we will ask again.
It has to be Jamaican
Owned and run by people from here, us included. The whole point of MAPL Tours is that the island is not a backdrop, it is the people who know it.
It has to be dependable
If you say ten o’clock, it is ten o’clock. One missed pickup undoes a guest’s whole trip, and it is our name on the confirmation too.
