Your Kingston City Sightseeing Experience begins with your pick-up at your hotel lobby and you are driven in comfort through the mountainous countryside into the streets of Kingston, Jamaica.
On entering the Trench Town community, you will immediately feel a change in the atmosphere; what Jamaicans call - "the vibe". It is hard to describe it in words, but you will know it when you feel it. It's a mixture of the culture, the music, the people; everything that makes Jamaica and Trench Town popular destinations for world travelers. After the initial meet and greet, you will embark on a journey of exploration and adventure.
There is a compelling desire and an anxiety to know where the greats of Reggae lived and what kind of experiences shaped the music that has become mainstream among the genres. The Old Ambassador Theater; No Man's Land; Boy's Town; Culture yard; JaMin Recording Studio - these are some of the places you will visit to put you in touch with the culture and the people. The Old Ambassador Theater, is where the diamonds in the rough from Trench Town came to be polished by performing alongside accomplished artists. No Man's Land, the symbol of Jamaica's modern political struggle gave the music its conscious lyrics. Culture Yard, is where the young Bob Marley lived and made the music that catapulted him to international stardom. At JaMin studio you can pretend to be a star yourself; creating memorabilia.
Your Kingston journey continues with some sightseeing as you make your way into the uptown section of the city where the home of Bob Marley is now a Museum, stopping to grab a bite to eat for lunch (meals and drinks not included) along the way. Enter the Museum and allow settings to envelop you with the sights and sounds of Bob, as you take a guided tour of this Jamaican Heritage site. Your friendly, charming and knowledgeable guides will escort you through the grounds, which include the Main House, Exhibition Hall, Theatre, Gift Shop, and Café.
At the end of your experience, enjoy a comfortable drive back to your hotel with a heart filled with Jamaica!
