If you want to do more during your time in Jamaica than simply lie out on the beach, tere are a number or historical and cultural trips you can embark on to get the true sense of the island.
For music lovers, a trip to Trench Town is a must. The area is said to be where ska and reggae originated and if you do pay it a visit, Bob Marley's former home and the Trench Town museum are two definite highlights. Be aware though that it is not the safest area now and is only to be visited in the day time, preferably with a guide.
In a similar vein, Tuff Gong Recording Studios, founded by Bob Marley, are also well worth a visit. Guided tours are on offer and the gift shop offers an array of music, memorabilia and other such gifts.
