What travelers say

Read before you land.

Driver texted me the moment my flight cleared customs and had my luggage on the trolley before I could find the exit. Exactly what you want after nine hours in the air.

Meredith R.· MBJ → Negril · round-trip

I booked the RIU Negril transfer at 2am the night before travel — confirmed by 5am, driver was there with a chilled Ting. No haggling, no mystery fees.

Daniel K.· MBJ → Negril · one-way

Price was the same as the resort shuttle but we had the car to ourselves and the driver stopped at Scotchies on the way to Ocho Rios. Little things.

Route guide

How to get from MBJ to anywhere in Jamaica.

MBJ to Negril private transfer

From $140

Roughly 1h 30m along the A1, then the coast road past Lucea.

Sangster International (MBJ) is the airport everyone flying to Negril uses — Norman Manley (KIN) is on the wrong side of the island, three hours further. The drive is straightforward and scenic; the catch is that the Negril taxi queue at MBJ is one of the most-overpriced in the Caribbean during peak season. A pre-booked private transfer locks the price, skips the queue, and gets you to Seven Mile Beach with bottled water and the AC already running.

MBJ to Ocho Rios airport transfer

From $180

About 1h 45m on the new north-coast highway.

The toll highway between Montego Bay and Ocho Rios cut a chunk off this drive — what used to be three hours on the old coastal road is now closer to 1h 45m. Most resorts in St. Ann (Sandals Ochi, Beaches Ocho Rios, Moon Palace, Bahia Principe) sit within 20 minutes of each other on this same stretch. Round-trip is the way most travelers book; you keep the same driver and skip the cab math twice.

Montego Bay airport transfer to your hotel

From $60

5–25 minutes for any Rose Hall or Ironshore property.

If you’re staying anywhere in the Rose Hall corridor — Iberostar, Hyatt Ziva, Hilton, Half Moon, the Sandals MoBay properties — your transfer is the cheapest tier on the island. Round-trip runs $60 flat, less than the cost of a single cab leg in many cases. Solo travelers get the same vehicle; the price is per car, not per passenger.

MBJ to Falmouth resort transfer

From $110

About 35–45 minutes east on the highway.

Royalton Blue Water and Excellence Oyster Bay both sit just outside Falmouth, in Trelawny. The drive is short and almost entirely highway. If you’re a cruise passenger meeting your ship at the Falmouth Cruise Port, the same flat rate applies — just pick the port as your destination at checkout.

Good to know

Frequently asked.

Is the price really flat for 1–4 passengers?
Yes. The fare shown is per vehicle, not per person. A family of four pays the same as a solo traveler on the same route. Groups of five or more get a custom quote — we run a separate vehicle to keep everyone comfortable.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
We track your flight in real time from the moment it leaves. If you land late, your driver adjusts — there is no delay surcharge on any booking, even multi-hour holds. If your flight is cancelled outright, reply to the confirmation email and we will refund in full.
How do I find my driver at MBJ?
After you clear immigration and customs, walk through the arrivals doors. Your driver will be on the left side holding a MAPL Tours sign with your name. If you do not see them within five minutes, call the 24/7 dispatch number in your confirmation email.
Can I pay in cash?
Payment is taken online up front via Stripe, in USD. That is how we keep the pricing transparent and how you get a real receipt. Cash tips for the driver are welcome but never expected.
What about child seats, wheelchair access, or extra luggage?
All handled — add details in the special requests field at checkout. Child seats are complimentary; wheelchair-accessible vehicles require 48 hours notice and may adjust the rate slightly for the larger vehicle.
Do you serve Kingston (KIN) and Port Antonio?
Yes, but those routes are priced individually rather than by zone. Use the contact form with your dates and we will quote within the hour. Kingston transfers typically run $90 to $150 depending on destination; Port Antonio is $180 to $240 depending on the hotel.
What is your cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before your scheduled pickup time. Inside 24 hours we charge 50% of the fare — your driver has already been dispatched and is turning down other trips. No-shows are charged in full.
