Best Excursion Ever

Michael_S, Mar 2023
We highly recommend doing this trip with Suzette Tours! Both of the ladies that accompanied us on our trip were sweet, caring and truly special individuals. They took care of us the entire time we were on this journey and advised us when we needed it. We were so thankful to have found this tour while on a Carnival Cruise porting in Jamaica. If you are thinking about booking this trip, DO IT!! 12/10 would recommend! This was the trip of a life time.

Thanks so much for such awesome rewive it a pleasure being your tour guide

Just a ride

jalisa_d, Nov 2022
It’s just a ride to the bob Mary 9 mile. Nothing is included. Not food or water or the entry fee. $270 for an 1.5hr ride smh

Response from Host, Nov 2022

It is clearly stated in the exclusions section that food and entry fee is not included. This customer wrote this kind of review because they thought that they had already paid for everything.

Scam

Gina_Q, Oct 2022
Scam. Not a tour. No lunch. You are only paying for shuttle. False advertising. Do not book. Get one that includes the $30 admission fee at least.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

It is not a SCAM! It's clearly written in the inclusions and exclusions section of our products. And you told Warren that you saw it but didn't realize.

Interesting

Awesome and interesting tour. Very night to see and hear the highlights about bob Marley. They had a nice band playing.

Absolutely outstanding trip

Martin_G, Sep 2019
Thanks go to our driver Warren and photographer Chris for making this a truly memorable day. They are so professional, courteous and super friendly with so much knowledge and stories about the areas we were travelling through and we learnt so much about the Jamaican way of life and a throughly interesting conversation about the Rasta’s, much respect. Nine mile is a trip where you will get a real flavour of Jamacia travelling through tiny villages as you wend your way up the mountain to Bob Marley’s home. We were met by our guide Captain who was such a character whose laugh will stay with you for ever. He guided us around Bob Marley’s home up until he was 13 years old and had so many stories about Bob and his family and how Bob often returned to recharge his batteries as he had big love for his home and family. A truly memorable tour and one to add to you must do list. Thank you guys for an excellent adventure. Chris we would love some of the photos you took if you could get in touch that would be great.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review.

Gran experiencia en la cuna del reagaee

Claudio_B, May 2023
Fue un lindo paseo, el camino debe ser realizado por un local, no me atrevaría a conducir por la izquierda y por medio de las montañas jamaiquinas, yo al menos disfurté el camino al 100%... Nuestra guía fue un 100%...pidanla, eso si pedimos una guía en español y ella no lo hablaba, Ojo no es culpa de ella, fue una gran guía y conversamos en inglés sin problemas. El lugar es místico y comercial jajaja, una pequeña aldea donde ingresas al "museo" y lo primero que haces es pasar por un tema de ventas de souvenirs, luego música, luego tomar alcohol, etc...para finalmente llegar a que te guien a la casa donde pasas por habitaciones, mausoleos, etc...todo muy lindo y bien mantenido... Bueno si fumas marihuana es un lugar también para hacerlo jajaja...lugares que no se puede sacar fotos, no videos, no cigarros, no alcohol, pero marihuana si!!! Es su cultura la rastafari... Yo recomiendo 100% la visita, eso si tengan presente, el anuncio dice, que es en español y que dan una botella de agua, eso no es cierto!!! no hay agua ni español, sería bueno que cambiaran eso Además tienen que pagar por la entrada al lugar aparte.
