    This place pulsates with history, especially the history of Reggae music. You get the chance to stand inside Bob Marley's one-bed-room apartment, converted from what was the common kitchen in this former "tenement yard." This is a must-see tour for anyone who loves Reggae and seeks a deeper understanding of its origin.

    Best tour in my opinion! Besides the tour me and my girl got to hang around with the locals and some other spiritual people in Trench Town. Big up to Chris who works as a taxi driver at Eden Resort!

    This was one of the more interesting stops on my trip. It's not very "touristy" and that's what sat it apart. Great guide who actually lived therev and could tell all kind of interesting things

    A must-see for locals and foreigners alike to understand the circumstances and inspiration behind so many talents- Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer, Vincent Ford etc, and experience life in Kingston's mid1900s inner cities. Cheapest tour starts at $800JMD or US$12 and lasts about an hour

    This is a very important cultural space for reggae music and Jamaica in general. It helps us to understand the life and times of Kingston that created the music we appreciate today. As Bob Marley lived at that address, it holds special significance as he is a leading figure in the music of that period. The VW bus that was featured in the Babylon by Bus tour is the highlight, but it could be argued that it needs to be preserved.
