A Bob Marley/ Reggae lovers dream - Extremely responsive tour operator. Our guide was Leo. Comfortable vehicle. It was a long drive to 9 miles, from Ocho Rios. However, if you are a Marley/Reggae fan, this tour is for you. The entire experience at 9 miles, will take you approximately an hour. The longest part is the travel.
On another note, if you want to buy any local Rum, please get it at the airport duty free. We were taken to a “one stop shop” ANDY’S SOUVENIRS. Stay away from that place. We were charged $150 for a local rum which was $34 at the airport duty free. I simply despise dishonesty.

Great views and informative - We would like to big up ICEMAN 🥶🥶 of FOLKS FOR TOURS!! Very experienced guide who is following in his father’s foot steps and is a credit to his business. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. For us this was a very interesting tour, culturally and spiritually. The journey up the mountains to 9 Mile had beautiful scenery where you could see various crops growing and intriguing little villages. The tour guides at 9 Mile and informative and happy to answer any questions. The tour flowed nicely from birth place of Bob to final resting place of this great man. We fully recommend this trip and FOLKS FOR TOURS.
