Music History Tour

Gwendolyn_C, Jul 2023
This was the best organized excursion of our trip to Jamaica. Karen was very professional and knowledgeable regarding Jamaican history. Courtney is a local artist with a wealth of info that goes far deeper than the standard Marley tours. Both Courtney and Karen made my family (including children) feel safe in some of the rougher parts of town. Great experience! Highly recommended!

Very nice tour

Courtney was our guide and he was very informative and always happy to answer any questions. Such an inspirational tour if you are a Bob Marley fan or reggae fan. The trip from Ocho Rio's was very scenic through the mountains and towns to Kingston. A enjoyable day.

Absolutely the highlight of our stay in Jamaica

We read the five star reviews but from the pre-tour organisation to the final drop off this trip exceeded our expectations by a distance. Both our driver Wayne and Courtney, our guide in Kingston, brought the whole Jamaican experience to life. We’ve seen it on the TV over the years but to actually visit Orange Street and to sit in the Government Yard in Trench Town was mind-blowing. If you like your Jamaican music you really don’t want to miss this trip!!

Muy bien organizando, muy...

Muy bien organizando, muy amables e interesante el tour. El guía muy dispuesto a resolver dudas, fue un tour muy completo por la historia de la música de Bob Marley

Fantastica avventura organizzata.

La visita ai luoghi museo, anche se in lingua non Italiana, purtroppo. Comunicazioni e puntualità al top, tanta cordialità e correttezza.
