    Everything was beautiful. I will be sending my customers to do this tour. The experience was awesome and very educational if you didn't know the family history about Bob Marley and his family

    Desmond our driver was fantastic and looked after us really well. Taught us lots about Jamaican life on our drive up to nine mile. The guided tour of the Bob Marley mausoleum was interesting and the shots at the bar were very good! Haha!

    Desmond was our amazing driver who took us to Nine Mile. He thoroughly engaged with all of our many questions, about Nine Mile and Jamaica generally. It was a beautiful drive. The tour of Bob Marley's house itself was really interesting. I sadly forget our guide's name now (a few day's later), but he was very lovely and knowledgeable. The art on the and around the house is unbelievable. Also get the candle (I think it costs $1?) that is offered, as it is a nice way to approach where Bob Marley is buried.

    Response from Host, May 2024

    Il tour è ben organizzato da Coopa Toor, che tiene conto degli orari di arrivo e partenza delle navi da crociera. La visita è stata emozionante: vedere i luoghi di nascita di Bob Marley accompagnati da una guida Rasfafariana è un'esperienza indimenticabile.
