I've had a great day. Kirk and his wife took me on the road. They were very friendly and took the time to tell more about certain places and their history and to take pictures. The experiences at the Bob Marley museum were my favorite, along with the wall murals at Waterlane. I would definitely recommend this tour
Our guide Kirk brought us to Bob Marley Museum and we learned a lot about Marley’s life and his work as a musician. Then he brought us to Devon’s House where we learned its History. I highly recommend this tour and thank you Kirk for bringing us around Kingston and being our photographer.
Thank you, I am happy you enjoyed the tour.
Great way to see a lot of the city's highlights in just a day. Kirk was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable about the city and prompt with all pickups. Was also willing to be flexible and customized the tour route and drop-off point since I was traveling by myself. Would recommend!
Thank you so much for booking with us . I am glad you enjoyed it.
I could not pass up this deal. You definitely get bang for your buck with this company! I learned so much on this tour and had such an amazing time being educated on the history of Kingston Jamaica, Bob Marley, the Devon House and the mural walk. I'm so grateful to Toya for getting me in at the last minute yesterday. Kirk our tour guide gave us such an amazing and memorable experience. He was kind, personable, and friendly. He made sure myself and another tourist whom I was with, had the best time. I would highly recommend him and this tour. You won't be disappointed!
Hey Meranda, I am super excited that you enjoyed your tour. I am glad I was able to make it work for you. Thank you so much for booking with us, can’t wait to see you on your next trip. Toya
Book this tour! I booked this tour because I wanted to visit these places and was concerned about fitting it all in during my vacation. It was all I hoped for and more. Kirk was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and I had enough time at each of the sites to fully appreciate each one. The driving tour through Trenchtown was a great bonus.
Awwww Linda. I’m glad you had a great experience. Thanks for booking with us. Can’t wait to see you on your next trip.
Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see Kingston in a day. Well planned and enjoyable from start to finish. Kirk was very knowledgable, and we truly appreciated the pictures he captured to help commemorate the experience.
It was my pleasure. Thanks for booking with us.
Kirk was a great tour guide! He brought me to all the areas and gave me a great insight into the history of the city & each destination! He also brought me to areas not listed like the art district & Trenchtown, it was great to see these areas with a local who could tell me about the area while feeling safe with a local. Really recommend, and Kirk was brilliant, he even insisted on taking loads of pictures!
It was my pleasure. Thanks for booking with us and see you on your next visit.
Thanks for the tour - Shame the National Gallery was closed on Mondays but Bob Marley Museum was Great 🙏 Having a Red Stripe and walking around Kingston town looking at modern & colorful wall murals was very memorable (and something that you probably shouldn’t do without being with a local). Kirk is an excellent guide who lived in the U.S. for over 20 years ❤️ One Love 😎 Curry Goat Patty for lunch - Whoop Whoop
Thank you Andy, for booking us. I am glad you enjoyed the tour. See you on your next trip
We had a great trip with Kirk from our hotel in Montego Bay across the island to Kingston. He picked us up at the hotel in the morning and we drove straight to Kingston. We went to the Bob Marley house museum, the Devon House, and ended the tour in the downtown Kingston Art District where we walked around and looked at several city blocks worth of murals. We highly recommend Kirk - he provided a very pleasant and educational tour for us and we had a very fun and safe experience.
Hi Elizabeth, I am so happy you enjoyed your trip. Thanks for booking us, until we meet again.
I’ll start this review by saying, the tourism industry cannot survive without tour guides like Kirk. From the minute my family and I set foot in Kirk’s van, he treated us like family. He was able to provide so much knowledge about the different parishes and the island as a whole. My dad, a Jamaican native, died on April 19, 2020 and on the 5 year anniversary of his death, my family and I decided to tour Kingston Parish, where he was from. On a day which could have been full of sadness, we had arguably the most fun of our entire trip and that was all because of Kirk. Kirk is one of those tour guides that makes you never want to end the tour. Kirk, my family and I appreciate you. My only complaint is that we can’t have you as our guide every time we visit Jamaica! Thank you doesn’t begin to cover our “thanks.” -Stacy
Oh wow, Thank you so much Stacy. Very touching story. Sorry we had to cancel previous due to the hurricane, but I want to thank you for rebooking us and having faith in us to give you and your family an amazing tour. Looking forward to your next visit. All the best
