Our driver Donovan was...

Our driver Donovan was very friendly and informative - providing lots of information on the towns/villages and landscapes we travelled through en route to Kingston. The museum itself was a good experience showing insights to Bob Marleys career and life. Our guide went the extra mile for us calling in at a pharmacy on request as well as a souvenir shop on the way home.

A fun cultural experience not to be missed

A fantastic trip out into the mountains and through the outskirts of Kingston. Donovan our guide was very friendly and helpful, he was great at explaining all the interesting places and pointed out things we could have never known if not. The Bob Marley museum was really well organized and the guide was friendly and funny, which really made the whole experience light hearted but still very informative. 💯 recommend this trip.

Buyer Beware of tour company

The driver wasvan hour late. Lincoln thwn told us he was not going to take the toll roads( which would have been safer) he said the company didnt give him toll money so he took us the back scenic dangerous route. Lincoln drove like he was an indy race driver. We held on for dear life. During our indy drive he indicated we would go to Bob Marley tour and come back. I told him we also paid for Dover house and emancipation park and we expect to be taken there. He agreed. The Bob Marley tour was awesome so much history our guide there was entertaining. Webwent to Dover house Lincoln didnt get our tickets. We walked around . Emancipation Park was very educational. Since we didnt get our tickets to tour Dover house Lincoln agreed to take us to a store for soda...words cannot express the store he took us to. Although he was in a hurrybhe made time to stop on the side of the road where his vendors/:friends werebwaiting eargerly. I told him we would not be buying anything but he stopped anyway. We told them no thank you andbI held a baby and we were back to the races. I gave this tour a couple of stars for the bob marley and emancipation park. I have to say as a travel agent I would definitely not recommend going with this company. They need to pay their drivers to use toll road. Also they need to play Bob Marley music to get customers ready. This company definitely needs more communication and better management. Tracy

first of all we welcome all our guest with great admiration love honesty and care we at island jam tour go beyond to make our guest have a great vacation. our guest was not at the appropriate pick up spot were they should be they use another hotel for the pick up point in which the driver have difficulty finding them. the toll road is optional for use our tour take you along the country side that gives you a very informative and an educational tour while journey to kingston.you cannot do a tour at the bob marley museum and less you have a ticket so that's not making sense the devon house is a place for refreshments and the best ice cream in jamaica there in no fee for that so that's no making no sense not talking the truth..we at island jam tours are a committed and trustworthy company for many years.

Great day discovering Bob Marley

I had a great family day out with my sons to the Bob Marley museum. My sons are 16 & 21 and all of us enjoyed it equally. Our driver Orlando was fantastic and took really good care of us. He told us about lots of interesting facts and showed us around local areas. The museum itself is great and it is so interesting to see everything, the tour guide knew everything there is to know about Bob Marley and it’s fascinating. Deffo recommend

A Must-Do Cultural Experience in Jamaica

My fiancé, his brother, and I had an amazing time on this private tour from Ocho Rios to the Bob Marley Museum. Our driver, Orlando, was the best. Friendly, helpful, and full of great tips on where to eat, shop, and exchange money. His energy made the trip even more enjoyable! The scenic drive through Jamaica’s countryside was absolutely beautiful. We passed through lush hills, small villages, and farmlands. I was able to capture some stunning photos along the way the views were picture-perfect and truly showcased the island’s natural beauty. The Bob Marley Museum was an unforgettable experience. It was inspiring to learn so much about Bob and Rita Marley and to walk through such an important part of music history. This tour gave us a real feel for Jamaica’s culture, people, and landscape. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting the island!
