Description
Ian Wright takes a Jamaican journey in this Globe Trekker video. He begins in the famous hippy hangout resort of Negril, travels to a plantation house and through a crocodile swamp, and heads to Treasure Beach, a hideaway paradise. He visits Bob Marley's mausoleum, Hope Bay, where he stays with rastas who run a guest house and a school for orphans, and Port Antonio, an old fashioned resort full of colonial buildings. Jamaica has the most churches per square in the world, so Ian attends a lively, traditional service before motorbiking up the isolated Blue Mountains to visit a Maroon village. Maroons are descendants of runaway slaves who made their escape to the hills and hid out for centuries. Ian attends their drumming ceremony and visits the headman. Early in the morning Ian climbs the Blue Mountain peak to watch the sunrise and catch a glimpse of Cuba before ending his journey in Kingston at the Jamaican carnival.
