Bob Marley Nine Miles Tour from Ocho Rios
For die hard Bob Marley Fans
Travel through Fern Gully and into Jamaica’s beautiful mountainous interior, we will keep going through local towns and communities in Jamaica’s picturesque countryside until we arrive at the little village of Nine Mile which is a quaint little place in the beautiful mountainous interior of St. Ann. Hundreds of hard core Bob Marley fans come to this remote part of Jamaica in the hills of St Ann to see the birth place and final resting place of the king of Reggae music as well as learn about the meaning of the lyrics of his music.
Not long after arriving at the small village of Nine Mile, you will arrive at the Marley family home. A Rastafarian guide greets you and immediately, you are faced with the friendly pleasant vibes which influenced the lyrics of many of Bob’s songs. The tour starts through the family house and it is not uncommon to be greeted by his mother or uncle while visiting on tour. as you are on this tour of the house where Bob Marley grew up you will get to not only meet the people he grew up with but touch his bed and really get to know him in-depth. This is a singing tour and your guide shares tales of Bob Marley’s childhood in the country, musical carrier and meaning behind and inspiration for the lyrics of his most famous songs, many of which the guides will sing for you and encourage you to sing along.
Afterwards you will be taken to the mausoleum – final resting place of the reggae king, where his body is entombed.
The message in Bob Marley’s music has influenced many persons all over the world for many years and despite his untimely death, the legend of Bob Marley lives on in the lyrics in his songs. Bob is truly one of the pioneers of reggae music.
After you have finished your visit of Bob Marley’s Nine Mile home you will understand why he had many of the values that he did, qualities instilled during his childhood while growing up here.

Thank you so much for the amazing experience while I stayed in Jamaica.
Without you I was afraid I would be stuck in Kingston as I was struggling with transfers to st Ann’s.
Driver Arrived on time, arrival and departure and gave us a tour of the island. I also booked the bob marley tour and had an amazing day, the memories and the beautiful mountains I will never forget.
the prices are one of the best on the island, highly recommend your company.

We actually had an amazing time. Both our drivers were amazing. They stayed with us, made sure we were safe and that we felt comfortable. They shared information about Jamaica with us and were knowledgeable. We really enjoyed our excursions and they met or exceeded all of our expectations. All 6 people in our group was very please with the tour.
Thank you kindly!

My excursion to Bob Marley Nine Miles Tour from Ocho Rios with Karandas Tours was fantastic. My husband, my son, and I thought we would be going on a tour with a bus load of people and really didn’t know what to expect. However, we had a private, tour/transportation driver (think his name is Davidson) that made us feel comfortable and special on our tour. He was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable during the drive to Nine Miles. Karandas Tours met all my family’s expectations. We were very pleased with the services we received from Karandas Tours and would book with your company again in the near future.

Good morning,
I work in the tourism business and I think that your driver was very skilled, polite and professional. It was a pleasure the tour with him, the name was Donald if I’m not going wrong.
