The Bob Marley museum is situated on the site of the legendary musician’s home, which he purchased in 1975. This house, featuring 19th-century architecture, was Marley’s home until his transition in 1981. It was converted into a museum six years later by his wife, Mrs Rita Marley. The main museum displays Marley’s personal treasures.
The property also features a well-equipped 80-seat theatre, a photographic gallery, a record shop and a gift shop filled with a wide array of Bob Marley memorabilia.
Relax and enjoy a sumptuous meal from the One Love Café after you’ve completed your tour which offers a peek into every aspect of Bob Marley’s life.
The gentleman guide was quite entertaining on the tour of the house, there was a 'sing-a-long' vibe which was hard to resist, certainly on our visit it was worth the entry fee. Perhaps it was the time of the day but the food outlet had very little that was 'ital', they had beer which covered the issue! I was able to get a parking spot without too much difficulty at the venue. Would be a nice house to live in... if it wasn't a museum!
Very lovely experience. You will learn a lot. You can take photos and videos in certain places that they allow you to. There is a hidden weed shop and place you can smoke as well. Wasn’t expecting that. Also make sure you check out. Tuff Gong
Very good tour and very informative. The only thing was there were too many tour guides there at one time, so it felt a bit rushed. The tour is about an hour . It would have been better if the tour was a bit longer. Jevy was our tour guide who made the tour worthwhile.
WOW!! What an experience I loved everything about the tour , plus the dispensary on property and you can’t forget about the restaurant. I had a delicious coffee drink and my husband had a cold drink. I loved the murals and fruit trees on the property as well.
The museum as a treat to see and the guide, who appeared in the One Love movie, went above and beyond. The singing, the history and the information about Rasta beliefs was all great. The only downside is the size of the groups they take in. There were probably 60 people in our group, which meant we were shoulder to shoulder in every room and were frequently out of earshot from the guide. As someone who walks with a cane this meant the tour was far more difficult and stressful as there were stairs to be traversed shoulder to shoulder with the others. There is food there and a gift shop. There was a big push to tip the guide (which even involved a crowd chant) which seemed a bit over the top and left a slightly foul taste in a few mouths of the group. All in all an excellent tour. Just be careful if you have walking issues as it can be quite challenging to make it through with so many people crammed in each group.
