Spiritual eye opening experience - We took the Bob Marley 9 Mile tour. Our tour guide was Dr. Fun. He is awesome and with him it's always about safety first. He's a very prompt, happy, pleasant and knowledgeable person. Loves his country and knows all of the best places to go to learn and experience the true Jamaican living.
The Bob Marley tour is an absolute must for everyone. We learned so much about Bob his beliefs and his family. You can feel his spirit up on 9 Mile. You get a different prospective about him and life. I didn't need any of the brownies or special smokes either. It's a spiritual experience.

BOOK WITH CORNELL, FunTrip TOURS IN JAMAICA - Let me begin by saying; IF YOU WANT TO HIT ALL THE HOT TOURIST LOCATION + GET AN AUTHENTIC JAMAICA EXPERIENCE, BOOK WITH CORNELL of
((FunTrip TOURS IN JAMAICA))
My wife and I have been to the island over 8x throughout the past couple years and Cornell never ceases to amaze us! He has an extensive knowledge of the island’s history and its current political & economic status as well. He gladly explains & answers, in detail, any questions you may have. We’ve been to Jamaica with our 2 kids before ages 10y & 7y, we’ve been to Jamaica just the 2 of us, and just recently we took a trip to Jamaica with a close friend couple of ours. Each time Cornell has had a customized experience for any type of group we may have had to create the best possible experience. On our most recent trip Cornell blew our minds with something new and took us to a private island off the coast of Nigril called Boobie Cay Island! I’ve been on different tours of his, but this time he said he had something special arranged, this was a first and boy was it special! We arrived in his company vehicle, which is always clean, professional, and smelling good, to a small Nigril coastal bar & grill with music playing, fresh crabs on the grill and a fully stocked bar of your choosing. Just as we arrive our boats docks at the shore and takes us about 200 yards +/- off the coast of Nigril to an island called BOOBIE CAY ISLAND. Upon arrival the Boobie Cay locals are pulling baskets of fresh lobster just caught and you select which one you want by size. Prices were extremely reasonable ranging from $30 - $80 depending on what you wanted. Once we purchased the Lobster, our Chef Porter, who is one of the longest standing locals on the island, cut/cleaned/prepared and open grilled the lobster right in front of us. He chopped up some vegetables and made a garlic butter sauce with a side of the fluffiest bread in have ever seen. The lobster was perfectly prepared, meat was tender and came right out the shell. Once we finished eating Cornell took us to an extremely secluded part of the island where there was a narrow strip of sand and in both sides of us was the Caribbean Sea, large rocks to stand for great photo opportunities, it was beautiful. We left the island and headed back to shore, jumped back in his vehicle and headed over to Margarita Ville and after Margarita Ville we ended our day at Rick’s cafe!
We also had a business portion of our trip in Kingston, JA where we had everything mapped out and scheduled to film an artist from the island on a hip-hop show I created and host in Los Angeles. Cornell escorted us to Kingston, took us to a legendary location in Kingston called Devon House (best Jamaican patties on the island). This was a 4hr roundtrip and he even had a cameo in our video! On previous island visits we went to the Green Grotto cave tour, Bob Marley Tour, and many other locations. I said all this to say:

Ya mon, take the tour! - Cornell (Driver) gave the true Jamaican driving experience…. It was an adventure for sure lol. He was very knowledgeable about the country, he even told us what plants we could eat and what they were for! Thought that was very cool. Dunns River was great! It’s a climb up a waterfall. Make sure you bring your water shoes! This Bib Marley tour takes you to where Bob and his mom are currently resting. It’s so beautiful and you can feel their presence there. Our tour instructor was very funny but he was the best. In the chapel, we sung a hymn and he said a very thoughtful prayer. It was amazing. The band gives you a Bob Marley medley and sing along. That was cool too! Oh and at the bar, there is a shot that they light on fire you have to drink through the straw and if you can complete the drink, you get to keep the glass! So fun! Hope you all enjoy it as much as we did!

Beautiful Jamaica - This was such a great tour and I highly recommend you do this when visiting beautiful Jamaica! Cornel was amazing! We spent 3 days with him doing different things and he was the best tour guide I could have chosen. He is fun, funny, educates you on Jamaica and provides a great experience. We are two women traveling to a foreign place and he made us feel right at home. He even showed us spots and food places that were not on the itinerary. Don’t look any further and book with Cornel! When I come back to Jamaica he is who I am calling! We did Bob Marley tour, Dunn’s River, Luminous Lagoon, Ricks Cafe and 7 mile beach. Be aware that going to 7 mile beach is beautiful but not relaxing as their are a lot of vendors constantly trying to sell to you and you can’t get much peace. Luminous is only a good experience if you can swim also. All in all it was an amazing trip, mostly because of Cornel! Definitely coming back!

Very fun - Andrew was the best driver that I have had in Jamaica. He was very professional and patient with my wife and I. He gave us some interesting information on our trip to the Bob Marley museum and Ocho Rios.
The falls were very nice and it was very relaxing to stand under them. Climbing them can be a bit tough but there are local guides to help you.

Awesome Day! - My best friend & I had one of the most memorable experiences in Jamaica thanks to Cornell. We had private transportation and as soon as he picked us up from our hotel, I knew we were in for a good time! We were able to check out stunning views and ride through the scenic countryside of rainforests and white sandy beaches. Cornell made sure to make some pit stops along the way to ensure we got the full Jamaican experience. Definitely coming back to visit and will be sure to personally requested Cornell.

Good history - It is good but the only problem is the rep she totally spoilt it so if you get this one I would totally avoid her they take up a lot of your time buy keeping stopping you in the gift shops rather than go look and explore and my personal opinion is they say they worship bob then why is it you can’t just go have a look without trying to get more money out of us that’s what’s spoiling it it’s all about making the money let people enjoy it
