About this activity
Your friendly and professional tour guide will meet you in your Runaway Bay hotel lobby where you will board a clean air-conditioned vehicle headed to the very remote village of Nine Mile in the beautiful hills of St Ann. Traveling south from the north coast, you will be in awe as you drive through the breathtaking rainforest while your driver gives you information about Jamaica. The drive will be approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.

The 1 hour and 30 minute Nine Mile tour includes a stop at the birth and resting place the late reggae legend, Bob Marley and Mount Zion, the spot where he drew his inspiration from to write his songs. Visit the nearby Ethiopian church where his body was laid to rest with his guitar. A Rastafarian tour guide will be on hand to guide you around the property and answer all your questions. You will have the opportunity to view the room he slept in as a young child and as an adult when he would return on his many “cooling out” visits. The rock that he used as a pillow, on which he would often times relax to draw inspiration to write his songs is still in the very spot. Quite a few guests have said that they have felt the presence of Bob Marley.

After the Nine Mile tour you will be taken through the green untouched mountains to Hope Road in Kingston where he lived at as an adult in a magnificent Victorian style house that he bought from his manager (Chris Blackwell) in 1974. This house is also the home of "Tuff Gong Studios". There you will view his record trophies on the walls, pieces of clothing, pots, pans, utensils, furniture, etc. Feel free to walk around outside and take photos.

After an exciting day tour of the Bob Marley museums you tour guide will take you back to your hotel.
