Jamaica is renowned for its stunning tropical landscapes, a strong sense of identity, and a vibrant music scene. The rhythmic beats of reggae and the flavorful cuisine make Jamaica a lively place from Montego Bay to Negril to Kingston.
The island's natural beauty is on display in the lush Blue Mountain Peak, white sand beaches, mysterious caves, and cascading waterfalls. It is the perfect backdrop for your trip from Negril to Kingston, which will take you east across the southern half of the island.
The drive covers a distance of 135 miles (216km) and takes about 3 hours and 30 minutes. Along the way you can tour some of the colonial-era great houses from Jamaica’s time as a sugar colony for the British. Once you get to Kingston, you’ll find plenty to do in the capital.
Nestled on the southeastern coast of Jamaica, Kingston serves as both the cultural heart and economic hub of the island. Its name pays homage to King William III of England, stemming from the city's establishment in 1692, following a devastating earthquake that destroyed the previous capital, Port Royal.
Before European colonization, Jamaica was inhabited by the indigenous Taino people, who called it "Xaymaca", meaning "Land of Wood and Water". In the early 17th century, the Spanish began importing African slaves to work on sugar plantations. However, in 1655, England seized Jamaica from the Spanish, marking the beginning of British rule.
Kingston grew exponentially, fueled by the influx of enslaved Africans and immigrants from across the globe. The city became a pivotal center of trade, fostering the growth of industries such as sugar, rum, and bananas, which shaped Jamaica's economy and cultural landscape.
Throughout the 20th century, Kingston saw the rise of nationalist movements and political leaders advocating for greater autonomy and eventual independence from British rule. In 1962, Jamaica achieved independence, becoming a sovereign nation within the Commonwealth.
Since gaining independence, Jamaica has grappled with various social, economic, and political challenges while also celebrating its vibrant culture, music, and achievements on the world stage. Kingston's Trench Town neighborhood, in particular, birthed the reggae music genre and was home to legendary musicians like Bob Marley and Peter Tosh. Kingston is home to 1.2 million people and is the largest city in Jamaica.
Keep these travel tips in your back pocket when planning your trip from Negril to Kingston.
Keep these necessities close by during your trip so you can reapply as needed. Jamaica has strong sun, and the tropical environment is full of insects. These can make or break your comfort on the trip, so come prepared. Or take care of both with a long sleeve "sun shirt". These are doubly great for when you're swimming or snorkeling because they don't wash off like sunblock!
Use an authorized, reputable transportation company like Daytrip to get to and from the airport. Avoid scams and have peace of mind by arranging everything at least a few days before your flight.
Driving around in Jamaica is an adventure all on its own. For your trip from Negril to Kingston, make sure you choose an expert driver and reliable transportation company.

After an exciting trip from Negril, take a break at the hotel before taking on the city. Make sure you have these popular sites on your itinerary when you get to Kingston!
Much of Jamaica’s cultural influence abroad can be tied to Bob Marley. The former home and recording studio of the legendary reggae musician is now the Bob Marley Museum in Kingston. It's a must-visit for music enthusiasts and those interested in Jamaican culture. There is the One Love Cafe on the premises as well as a record shop for all things reggae.

Generally, the peak season in Jamaica runs from December to April, coinciding with the island's dry season and cooler temperatures. You’ll have sunny skies, minimal rainfall, and comfortable temperatures in the 70s and 80s F (20° to 26° C) all around the island- from Negril to Kingston to Blue Mountain Peak!
If you're looking to avoid crowds and possibly save on accommodation costs, consider visiting during the shoulder months. May and June, as well as November, typically offer good weather with fewer tourists. However, keep in mind that there might be occasional showers, as these months mark the transition between the dry and rainy seasons.
July to October is Jamaica's rainy season, with high humidity and tropical showers. While this period may not be ideal for beach activities, it can be a great time to visit if you're interested in lush landscapes, fewer crowds, and much lower prices on accommodations and activities. However, some activities and flights may be canceled due to the weather, so take this into consideration.

Reasonably Priced and Safe Transportation
“Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.”
“We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.”
“Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.”
Comfortable and Safe Rides in Mexico
“Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.”
