A Unique 15 Day Guided Tour of Jamaica

Magical Lands has launched a unique15 day escorted tour to discover the real Jamaica beyond the tourist trail. This tour of Jamaica uses a local guides and authentic accommodation and is perfect for anyone wishing to discover the history and culture of this wonderful island nation.

Get away from the all-inclusive and stay in boutique locally owned properties, mingle in the local markets and discover the real Jamaica behind the tourist trail. With a local guide to show you around you will get to see and meet the Jamaican people, try the local food and drink and explore the history and culture. Try some peanut porridge, take a bite of fried fish and chew on a piece of sugar cane. Shop for some fresh ingredients at the local market and help prepare and cook your own Jamaican Lunch with assistance from your Rasta Chef.

We visit Kingston and experience the atmosphere of Down Town by visiting Trench Town Cultural Yard the "government yard" where Bob Marley lived and composed many of his best known songs. Take a look at Marley's old bedroom, his first guitar and the shell of his rusty Volkswagen camper van. Feel the vibes at the Parade, stroll through Kingston's National Heroes Park, take a selfie with Bob Marley and walk in his footsteps at the Museum. From Kingston, we head in to the Blue Mountains, home of the famous Blue Mountain Coffee. Walk the mountain trails that will take you through the Holywell National Park and ascend through modified forest 1,400 metres above sea-level. On the way up, there are panoramic views of St Andrew and Portland before the trail descends through primary forest. You can go rafting on the Rio Grande and as your captain steers the bamboo raft downstream you can soak up the natural beauty with stunning views of the Blue Mountains, colourful flora & fauna and listen to the deafening silence.
