has anyone been? im going in about 4 weeks and would like to know where would be the best and safest places to go ands see.
Yes, go there and have a good time. Why don't you take a trip to Haiti while you're about and really test your luck?

Originally posted by silly mctallGood, travelling with "pros" to safeguard yourself is required. Hope you're not bringing your family/children along. No sense in putting them at risk.

Why even go there to begin with?

Your logic is flaud.
There will always be areas that are safe, and areas that are not...
i.e. places in Jamaica that would be safe to go to.
or dangerous places not to go to in the USA.

Originally posted by Bad wolfBecause the murder /crime rate is 1/10 that of Jamaica?? Because there's a lot more to see, and many more "nice" places to visit where crime is negligible?

Originally posted by Sam The ShamBut you are generalising I think, the crime rate in certain areas of the USA is very high in places, but that wouldn't stop me visiting the safer areas.

Clearly you don't, you wouldn't want him going to the safe places in Jamaica...which is my point.
