myself and my boyfriend stayed in Ocho RIos at the Rui and travelled to Nine Mile via the Zion Bus and we absolutely loved it!You cannot go to Jamaica and not see where Bob Marley was raised,its so humble. The trip there itself was worth the price,we were served rum cocktails,had music playing and a brilliant driver and tour guide.... More

Our favorite tour guide Rusty took us up throught the beautiful hills to pay our respects to Bob. It is somewhat intense when you first get there, but this is part of the experience, nothing like home which is why we leave. An interesting view of what was versus what is Bob Marley's resting place. For me the eye opener... More

We went on a day it was pooring rain. The tour guide was very funny and "high on life" Just youtube him to get an idea of the tour "Captain Crazy Jamaica". It was a must see to walk into Bob Marley's Mausoleum. We were 8 people on the tour. We took a private taxi there. It was a long... More

We rented a car while in Jamaica and actually Drove ourselves to see this! What a trip up 9 mile road with curves, potholes and NO roadsigns! Take my advice and go on a TourBus to see this. We didnt know that you parked inside the gate and got hussled by some Jamaicans who took us on a tour of... More

We had 31 people all together in our group. We were there from all over to celebrate a 50th birthday of a good friend. So....he was a huge Bob Marley fan so he booked a bus for all of us to go to the mausoleum on the day of his birthday. The bus was alright but there was no washroom... More

We booked our tour from our resort. Our tour guide was Rastafarian..very informational. I've read some bad reviews...I can't say this was the best tour I had ever taken, but it wasn't the worst. Sure, there are inflated prices inside the compoumd, both for weed and souvenirs....but it's your money...if you don't want to spend it or give tips, then... More

I was really looking forward to seeing Bob's resting place but you wouldn't know it from this review...sorry! We hired a car in Jamaica and made our own way to Nine Mile only for us to be surrounded, on arrival, by children, not so young lads and men begging for money. It was quite intimidating trying to get through them... More

You have to be open to the experience to enjoy this excursion. It has been designed for tourists but it is a lot of fun and the tour guide made all the difference for our group. It was great to see how Bob grew up and the affect his spirit still has on the community and the area. You will... More

Oh my God the worst expression of exploitation and commercial enterprise i have seen next to Disneyland!....... this begins at the point of entry to the "Attraction", you buy my Ganga boys at the gate,through to the single spliff dealers on the site, those weed dealers not permitted access to the site have a little window into the compound to...

We traveled to Bob Marley with our tour guide Ken. The tour was alright, a bit boring at times and a little scary at the entering the compound with people being aggressive trying to sell dope etc. A plus was Captain Crazy who had a great laugh and a great smile. His stories, singing and enthusiasm was quite enjoyable. We... More
