What a way to see authentic Jamaica! - Marie’s tour of Kingston was exceptional - she has so much knowledge and passion for the area and left no stone unturned in making sure we experienced the very best of what local Jamaica had to offer. From the most authentic tour of Blue Mountain, chatting and eating with locals on the way, to the historic Devon House and iconic Bob Marley museum. The next day we experienced a lot more of what this fantastic capital had to offer with a fascinating trip downtown, starting with an amazing local Ital lunch at Dub Club (go to Veggie Campus for the best vegan food!) then onto the impressive National Gallery followed by a quick drink on the sun soaked terrace at ROK (Regeneration of Kingston) Hilton hotel taking in the shore line and emancipation statue. But by far the highlight, was wandering through downtown looking at the brilliant murals that are part of the regeneration and mingling with the locals on Orange St outside Rockers Records watching live dub reggae with Yumi the DJ and various live mic reggae. What a treat! Marie made this tour super special and her energy, passion & knowledge are unrivalled; she really cares that you have the best time! If you want to experience authentic Jamaica, I would recommend her personalised tours in a heartbeat

Looking for more than just typical tourist experiences during your time in Jamaica? - Looking for more than just typical tourist spots in Jamaica? This tour took me beyond the surface and deep into the heart of the island—eye-opening, unforgettable, and way more meaningful than I expected. On Sunday, Marie, a contact from the professional and educational space in London, led me on an incredible tour of the Blue Mountains of Kingston. Coming to my parents’ home country, I thought I had an idea of what to expect—but I was wrong. I learned things that genuinely surprised me and left with a much deeper appreciation for Jamaica. As a solo traveller, it was cool to connect with high-calibre guests—strangers who somehow became friends by the end of the day. We got into deep, honest conversations about the island, our personal connections to colonial history, and how much we actually shared in common. Never thought I’d be having those kinds of chats with people I just met—but that’s the vibe Marie creates. She’s carved out a niche, challenging the usual misconceptions about safety in Jamaica. Marie knows exactly where she’s taking you, and I never once felt out of place or concerned. Eljay, the tour guide, was sharp, knowledgeable, and kept us engaged the whole time—dropping gems without making it feel like a classroom. Then came the highlight: standing at Jamaica’s highest point, taking in views no photo could capture, followed by a top-tier lunch thousands of feet above Kingston’s skyline. Food just hits different with a view like that. To top it off, Marie gave me solid recommendations for places to explore on my own—spots I wouldn’t have found scrolling online. That alone was worth it. All in all, it was an unforgettable day. Kind-hearted, warm, and blessed people, breathtaking views, serious food, and plenty of laughs. If you’re thinking about it—stop thinking. Book it. One Stop Cultural Tours deserves an award from the Jamaican Tourist Board. I highly recommend them. Big shout-outs to Marie and Eljay for making a top-tier One Stop Cultural Tour experience!

Marie gave us the perfect day—rich in culture, history, and personal touches—making Kingston an unforgettable experience - An Unforgettable Day in Kingston – Marie is Simply the Best! A perfect blend of culture, fun, and personalized experiences—our day in Kingston with Marie was absolutely phenomenal! From the very beginning, she took the time to get to know us, crafting an itinerary that perfectly suited our interests while adding thoughtful surprises along the way. Her attention to detail, deep knowledge, and infectious enthusiasm made this experience one we’ll treasure forever. Our adventure began in Trench Town, where we were transported back in time to the birthplace of reggae. Marie’s storytelling brought the history to life, making us feel truly connected to the roots of this incredible music. From there, we headed to Tuff Gong Recording Studio, where we were treated to a private, one-on-one tour, an unforgettable recording session, and the rare opportunity to witness an actual studio recording in action—an experience we never expected! Next was the Bob Marley Museum, where Marie's expert planning ensured we had an incredible guide who delivered the most engaging, interactive, and fun-filled tour we’ve ever had. She even arranged for a chance encounter with some truly remarkable people, adding yet another layer of magic to our day. To top it all off, we visited Devon House, where we indulged in the world’s best patties and the most delicious ice cream. Marie knew exactly what to recommend, and every bite was pure heaven! Beyond her extensive knowledge of Kingston, Marie has a rare gift—she makes you feel like family from the moment you meet her. Her warmth, kindness, and passion for sharing Jamaica’s rich culture and history shine through in everything she does. She didn’t just show us the sights; she made us feel the heartbeat of Kingston in a way that words can’t fully capture. Marie is a true gem, a masterful storyteller, and a world-class guide. If we could give her 10 stars on a 5-star scale, we absolutely would! She turned our visit into an experience of a lifetime, and we cannot wait to return to Jamaica and explore even more with her. If you have the chance to spend a day with Marie—DO IT! You’ll leave with unforgettable memories, a newfound appreciation for Jamaican culture, and a lifelong friend.

One of a Kind - AMAZING - everyone must do this tour! - Our tour with Marie and Donavan was a true highlight of our trip to Jamaica! They were incredibly warm and welcoming, making the experience even more special. The biggest draw of this tour is Marie’s passion for sharing the rich cultural history of downtown Kingston—an area often overlooked by visitors. She guided us through top landmarks like the Bob Marley Museum and Devon House, while also introducing us to the stunning murals revitalizing the downtown area and the National Gallery. Marie is also wonderfully flexible. My boyfriend and I requested a visit to Coronation Market, a spot featured in Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations, which wasn’t included in other tours—and she made it happen! This experience is truly a CAN’T MISS. You'll leave with a deeper appreciation and understanding of Kingston’s cultural and historical significance—not just in Jamaica, but globally. Thank you, Marie!

Amazing Trip!!! - Marie is an amazing guide! From the day I booked with her, she started reaching out to me, like we were friends/family! She answered all my questions and was willing to pick us up at hotel even though we were a little further out. Marie is very informative and genuinely cares, not just about what she does, but also about the people in her care. I’d book with Marie again without a doubt!

A great day in Kingston - Having met Marie at the hotel, the day started with a walking tour of the downtown area. As a lover of street art and with an interest in the art of different countries, walking through the streets of murals on the way to the National Gallery provided a perfect start to the day. We next met up with Donovan who drove us to the Bob Marley museum (which I found really interesting) and Devon House (with its huge portions of ice cream). As a tour, all my boxes were ticked but what, for me, took it to another level was spending time with two lovely people. The day was like travelling around Kingston with a couple of friends, having a chat, sharing a joke and looking at interesting things along the way. If I have an opportunity to stop over in Kingston again as part of travel in the region, I will make a point to contact Marie and look to take one of the other tours offered by Onestop Cultural Tours. Thanks again for a great start to my time in Jamaica

Immersive, enlightening and heartwarming experience. Highly recommend! - We wish every country we visited had a Marie. So much energy and love for her city. Due to our flight getting cancelled last minute our itinerary got messed up and we only had 3 hours to spare for her tour. She was gracious enough to organise a very early mini tour of Bob Marley place and a walk along beautiful Downtown kingston. They drove us around the city to show us around, answering our questions, and pointing out major landmarks. Definitely a highlight of our trip. We can only imagine how much more we would have enjoyed the full tour. She was also very helpful..she recommended a taxi person (S/O to Roneil) , and sent us tips for our remaining time in the rest of Jamaica.we are glad our paths crossed.
