Overview
See all the standout sightseeing spots in Kingston - Jamaica’s captivating capital - on a wonderful walking tour that includes transport from Port Antonio! This all-encompassing day tour of discovery will tick the top icons of Kingston off your bucket list, including the brilliant Bob Marley Museum, picturesque Port Royal, the historic Devon House, and the impressive Simon Bolivar statue. You’ll even enjoy a true taste of Jamaica at the Market Place or Usain Bolt’s Tracks and Records restaurant!
Your wonderful walking tour kicks off with a trip to Port Royal, once the busiest city in the whole Caribbean. During the era of the Buccaneers, Port Royal was famed as a bustling hub of illegal trade and dirty money. These days, the port is a little more peaceful - it stands as a fishing town that bears the marks of several natural disasters, including hurricanes and earthquakes. The strongest of these earthquakes occurred in 1692 and caused 90% of the city to disappear underwater!
Make your way to the mansion built by Jamaica’s first ever black millionaire - Devon House. Built in 1881, this grand house boasts an incredible interior and famously produces a brand of homemade ice cream ranking 5th-best in the world!
Enjoy lunch at your leisure, either at the lively Market Place with its variety of local and international cuisine, or at the legendary Usain Bolt’s Tracks and Records, which serves tasty food in a shrine-like restaurant dedicated to the incredible successes of Jamaica’s sporting hero - the world’s fastest man (meals not included).
After a satisfying lunch, your walking tour winds its way to the breathtaking Bob Marley Museum for a guided tour of the king of reggae’s own home - base for the Tuff Gong record label founded by the Wailers in 1970. All the rooms in Marley’s house have been preserved to authentically show the house exactly as Bob loved it, with his former possessions preserved in their rightful places. Here you’ll find items of his favorite clothing, his Grammy Lifetime Achievement award, an awe-inspiring assortment of platinum and gold records, his back-up singers bold costumes, and a state-of-the-art theater projecting films of Bob Marley’s unbelievable life.
