Awesome experience from booking to completion!

Published on Nov, 2024

From booking to the actual trip, this was everything we could have hoped for. This was my wife’s birthday present and Winston and his team made it a memory that she has said she’ll hold on to forever. We even had to delay a couple of days thanks to a tropical storm turned hurricane and Winston made that adjustment so very easily and gracefully. Once off the ship in Ocho Rios, Winston helped us locate our driver, Leroy, who was so very kind and friendly. The drive to 9 Mile was a beautiful trip through the Jamaican mountains and was full of scenery and signs of everyday Jamaica unfolding with every turn. We enjoyed seeing real life play out as we drive by. At 9 Mile, the visit was beyond words. The staff was so welcoming and warm, and our guide, Barkie, was the best. He embodied the very spirit and passion of all Bob Marley stood for and represented. Barkie narrated every step and was so gracious with his time with each visitor. Witnessing the birth and final resting place of Bob Marley in such a beautiful place and seeing my wife’s heart become full was such a gift. A memory we both will enjoy for certain. The trip back to port was smooth and Leroy was so gracious to show us more of Ocho Rios on the way. Just a perfect excursion! Thanks to Winston, Leroy, Barkie and the whole team for making my wife’s birthday the best and for creating one of our all-time favorite memories!!! Book this excursion. You will not be disappointed!

Amazing personalised experience

Published on Oct, 2024

Winston was an amazing tour guide! We initially booked a different excursion. When explaining further landmarks in Ocho, Winston personalised our trip due to our preference. On the trip a family member felt unwell & Winston went above and beyond to make sure they had everything needed for them to be as comfortable as possible. We would recommend Winston and will book with him again when we return in the future.

An amazing tour guide

Published on Oct, 2024

This was the best experience I had so much fun at the Bob Marley resting place I learned some amazing things about the artist got to sing and dance with his music. It was just amazing thank you Winston Gale for being an amazing tour guide you made this experience over the top 10 out of 10 guys like you that really makes the experience of taking tours on vacation, I hope to see you soon

Favorite part of my visit to Jamaica

Published on Jul, 2024

Our driver Henry was amazing! I highly recommend going with a larger group for a better experience once you actually get on location. Our first tour guide was disrespectful and didn't want to give a quality tour because there were only two of us. We ditched him and tagged along with a group of 10+ people who had a great tour guide. We left happy!

A very good time in Ocho Rios!!!

Published on Apr, 2024

Did my tour on April 18th of 2024. I booked it last minute and Winston was very agile to accommodate us. Very good communication and instructions. Our guide was Maxine. She drove very safely on the winding roads leading to 9 mile. Shes was very kind, knowledgeable and funny. We had a very good time and it felt safe all the time. 0 issues. I will definitively do it again with them. The house was great and full of history and good energy.
