Birth and resting place of the legendary reggae superstar Robert Nesta Marley “Bob Marley”, This tour takes you on a journey through the history of Bob Marley’s Life from birth to legendary reggae icon. 

The small hamlet town where Bob Marley Mausoleum is located is about two hours and a half away from Montego Bay. It may seem like a long ride, but it’s well worth it, especially if you’re a fan of reggae music or Bob Marley as an artist, singer, and musician.

This is a guided tour, and it is about an hour to three hours long and will take you through Bob Marley’s life, starting with his birthplace and finishing with his place of eternal rest. You will get to see the tomb of Bob Marley, which is elevated to about 6 feet above ground level. You will also get to see his cooking pit and his rock pillow.

The tour is accompanied by a lot of singing and is guaranteed to leave you in awe. It’s highly inspiring to see that someone from such humble surroundings appealed to millions upon millions of people. Once within the mausoleum, you will feel like you’re feet away from one of the greatest musicians of the 20th century.
