What is Community-Based Tourism?
More than just tourism, it’s a way for Jamaicans to take the lead in showcasing our culture, heritage, and natural beauty.
Picture this: A warm smile greeting you in a small community, the aroma of jerk chicken on a street corner, and the sound of local music filling the air.
It’s a way to explore Jamaica that’s personal and unforgettable. It’s tourism led by Jamaicans, where every visit supports families, creates jobs, preserves traditions, and uplifts our island’s beauty. When you choose Yaad Luv, you’re not just visiting; You’re becoming part of the story.
Let’s embrace, support, and grow wi yaad.
