Highlights
  • Nine Miles - Driving inland for a winding and at times bumpy climb to St Ann Parish, you can expect amazing views of the Dry Harbour Mountains before arriving at Nine Mile. Bob’s birthplace is a national shrine and throngs of Rastafarians mill about outside. You’ll see his home and final resting place as your guide fills you in on his life and music.
  • Dunn’s River Falls and Park - Your adventure kicks off pretty much the moment you leave your hotel as you head to the coast to visit Dunn’s River Falls, which starred in the James Bond classic, Dr. No. These 55-metre-high and 180-metre-wide falls are interspersed with lagoons and climbing them is an experience in itself.

Lovely falls, same about the rest! - The falls were amazing and guided well. It was great to see Bob Marley's place. However, all day everyone wants tips for everything, lunch was awful, our tour guide was not very friendly, took us to a very expensive 'rest spot' shop, was a very long day left at 7.30 arrived back 6.30.

Avoid 9 mile with TUI - Dunn’s river was fantastic but unfortunately we were not advised that marijuana was going to be pushed so heavily for the nine miles part. We had a child with us and were heavily solicited by the tour guide and the bus driver. Had to refuse at least 10 times. Dropped off in the street and expected to buy it. A number of passengers on the tour did and were smoking it around my child. Had to move away and sit out the tour for 2 1/2 hours. No accommodation and no partial refund. If they told us prior we would have chosen a different activity.
