Stop At: Nine Miles, Jamaica
Nine Mile is where Bob Marley’s musical career began and also influenced many of his songs. Get a 1.5 hour tour of the Bob Marley Mausoleum, managed by members of Marley’s family, from a Rastafarian guide. This tour includes both birth place and burial place of Bob Marley, his childhood home and a cottage with two rooms that contain artifacts of Bob Marley’s family.
You will also be shown a Rasta-colored ‘rock pillow’ on which Marley laid his head when seeking inspiration. His body lies buried along with his guitar in a 2.5 m-tall (8.2 ft) oblong marble mausoleum inside a small church of traditional Ethiopian design. There are two mausoleums on the property. The first entered is Mama Marley’s. The second entombs Marley.
You will then be transported for 2 hour sightseeing and shopping tour in Ocho Rios, the tourism capital of St. Ann. Here, you will be able to select your various souvenirs and crafts to ensure a long and lasting memory. Don’t forget your cameras.
