Absolutely fantastic tour! - Absoluely fantastic tour led by knowlegeable tour guides. Plenty of anecdotes about the lives of household reggae superstars I've admired for decades. We felt safe and well-looked after navigating our way round the iconic sites of downtown Kingston. Thoroughly recommended if you're a lover of reggae and Jamaican culture.
