There is no stop at the Rose all Great House on your way to Negril however, your tour guide will tell you the history and slow down so that you can take photos.

Great tour - I purchased this tour last minute and I’m glad I did. My husband and I had a great time yesterday on this tour. I enjoyed learning some things about Bob Marley that I didn’t know before. Also, to visit his former home and final resting place was an experience that I won’t forget. Our driver was Clyde and he made this a very memorable experience!

Brilliant trip but very long drive - Absolutely brilliant trip. If you are travelling from Montego Bay then make note it’s over 2hour drive and 3/4 of it is up a windy steep narrow road, so if you get travel sick I would t recommend.

ARCHIE was a phenomenal tour guide - BOOK 👏🏾 THIS 👏🏾 TOUR 👏🏾
Not only was this memorable, enjoyable and humbling (made me cry happy tears), it was soothing to my soul. I learned so much more about the Legend, Bob Marley, and I appreciated how much the staff respect his legacy and the scared space. Walking up Mt. Zion was exhilarating. I recommend this tour to everyone! BIG UP YUHSELF ARCHIE! One Love from Fafa 🇭🇹 and Donyale from N.Y.C.

Well worth the tour! More commercial / touristy than expected but once you get to the mausoleum, all of that disappears. Go. - We were in Montego Bay and this was the excursion we wanted. We booked through Nexus. There were two options. Either combine with Dunn's River Falls (which fellow travelers absolutely loved the falls) or just go to Nine mile. We opted just nine mile. Pickup at hotel was at 7:30. After pickups, we had 9 people, driver and our guide in a van, which was great for navigating the mountainous narrow road. We had a stop prior to the mountain ride where we had toilet break, able to buy souvenirs (at a discount) or buy refreshments. Following, it was about 90 minutes to two hour ride, depending on traffic to get to the locally called village of Nine Miles. Along the way, interesting tidbits and sights were explained. We arrived. First stop at a vendor where you could obtain various "products!" No one in our group bought. From there you are escorted to a bar where you could buy a "Bob Marley drink" that had a burning shot of rum on top. Marley's concerts were playing on a large screen which was interesting to watch. Then a souvenir shop, then a place to buy a candle to light in his memory which we carried with us to the tour's end. Steep steps were climbed and then it became a bit of a blur as we were escorted through his childhood home where there was so much memorabilia that there wasn't enough time to take it all in. Our Rastafarin guide, Barker, was good, and we enjoyed his commentary. The little church, the smaller home where Marley's single cot remains, to the live music played for us all were memorable. Cadella Marley's hot sauce was purchased where the musicians played. Then the final tree covered pleasant walk to Mt Zion and his meditation rock / "pillow" where he looked upon the valley and drew some of his song inspirations. Expansions, buildings and concrete now cover the once green area where you could feel what it must have been like before all this tourism. In their wisdom, they left an opening where the view of the valley is still seen from the rock. The outdoor kitchen was built where you could partake in some natural tea.
The mausoleum. Removing your shoes, lighting the candle and slowly walking around the crypt, touching the beautiful Italian marble, quietly in your thoughts about this young person who gave so much of himself and his music was indeed worth the tour. If alive, he would have turned 80 two days prior......
We then bid farewell to our Rastafarin host, joined our rep and loaded in the van. We pre-ordered lunch and stopped at a place that served Jerk chicken/ pork or had other options (we think).
The commute had us back at the hotel around 3:30. Yes, the mountain road is narrow, steep and lots of turns but our adept driver gave us no concerns. Worth it.

Bob Marley 9 mile tour - It was great. Very informative. Our tour guide was hilarious and very knowledgeable. Patient and didn't hound you for tips like the street vendors. The street vendors there can be very obnoxious so be prepared. Few souvenir shops and food/bar spots. Live music was played for the guests which was a nice touch

This is a must, it’s 90 minutes from Montego Bay - The tour was not quite what I expected, it was a walking tour of Bob Marley’s family home where he was born and laid to rest with the rest of his family.
Inside the home there are performers singing Bob Marley tunes, you see where he wrote Is this Love was written and you also get to see his shrine or tomb where he is resting, along with his mum and other family members.
Truly amazing, although I would say that as you walk through the tour, there are so many gift shops, purchasing a candle to lay at his tomb and others, that buy the time the tour ends, you’ve run out of cash to tip the tour guide 😂
