Health tips when traveling to Jamaica

If you need to bring prescribed medications while traveling to Jamaica please remember to bring them in their original containers and clearly labeled.  A letter from your physician describing your health condition and reason for the medication is also a good idea.  Your health insurance might not cover medical expenses while traveling to Jamaica but you can check in advance about travelers insurance in the US before arriving.  Vaccinations are not require to enter Jamaica, only if you have visited the following locations in the past 6 weeks:  Asia, Africa, South America, Dominican Republic, Haiti or Trinidad and Tobago.  Please check with your travel agent or The Jamaica Tourist Board before departure to see the current regulations.  We at Travel Around Jamaica look forward to you having not only a fun and exciting visit but also a healthy and safe one.  Please contact us at www.travelaroundjamaica.com for your ground transportation needs.
