Visitors to Jamaica who have an interest in Bob Marley won’t want to miss Nine Mile, the small rustic community where the reggae legend was born and buried. Today his former home, the place where he spent his childhood years is now a shrine to his music and values.
The Bob Marley Nine Mile Tour begins with an outside view of the grandparents’ house in which he was born. Then the next stop is a small museum which displays many of Bob’s musical achievement. Visitors are allowed to take photographs here capturing the magical moment which permeates the air.
After exiting this building it is out to the courtyard where the resident band will play you some live reggae, the musical instrument used are not sophisticated but sounds are melodious. You may join the singing, dancing or even try your hand at the drums.
There is something mystical about the Nine Mile Bob Marley Tour. It epitomizes the fact that great people can rise out of the humblest of beginnings. It also gives you closeness to the reggae legend like nothing else. This tour can also be combined with another such as Dunn’s River Falls, Blue Hole or even horse-back ride and swim.
After the musical interlude now it’s time to head up to Bob’s childhood home and his final resting place. Tours are led by Rastafarians who take the visitors through the house and point out the single bed that Markley wrote about in “is this love’. Visitors also step inside the mausoleum where the singer is buried with his guitar.
