For travellers seeking an authentic Jamaican
experience, the island’s Meet the People programme
provides the perfect opportunity.
Offered through the Jamaica Tourist Board, visitors
interact with “Meet the People Ambassadors” who
share similar interests, professions and hobbies.
These Ambasadors will give visitors a taste of the
authentic Jamaica. Visitors will meet local people -
doctors, farmers, dancers, teachers, photographers,
nurses, artists, etc., shop at local markets, visit local
churches, schools, tour local facilities, participate in
various cultural activities, among other things.
When you have finalized your travel dates, contact
the Jamaica Tourist Board office in your country and
they will bring you one step closer to experiencing
on your next visit to Jamaica, the pleasure of living
like a local . . .
