Itinerary

  • Sam Sharpe Square

    This tour takes you to downtown Montego Bay. Your first 10 minutes stop will be at Sam Sharp Square. This area got its name from a freed slave who carried the same name and who led one of the bloodiest uprising in Jamaica on Christmas day in the year 1831. In this area, there is a statue of Sam Sharp and other slaves who were severely punished in the year 1832 for the Christmas day uprising that took place. Feel free to exit the vehicle and browse around. There is also the "Cage" which was originally constructed from wood in the year 1806. However, it was later reconstructed from bricks. The cage was used as a holding area for runaway Slaves who were held there until they were sent back to their plantations. It was also used as a holding area for vagrants and rowdy seamen who would get drunk and was behaving disorderly.

    10 minutes

  • St James Parish Church

    The tour will continue to the St., James Parish Church for a 30 minutes visit. This Anglican Church, built in 1775 is one of the oldest churches in the Montego Bay area. It boasts an amazing architecture and some of the contents ranging back from as far as over 200 years ago. Built to last for centuries, this church is still fully functional as back in the days when it was first constructed. Be sure to read the marble plaques and headstones that displays an array of exquisite poems well wishes written in old English. Feel free to browse around and read the headstones. The church will always accept a contribution at your pleasure.

    15 minutes

  • Richmond Hill Inn

    Our next stop will be at Richmond Hill where the elegant Richmond Hill Great House once stood. This colonial style Great House which was destroyed by fire on December 30, 2019 was located 500 feet above the hustle and bustle of Montego Bay City. Built in 1804 by members of the Dewar family, original owners of the Dewars Whisky. This Great House sits strategically on top of a hill in the center of town and is home to several movie scenes including James Bond Movies. Entertainers LL Cool J, Alicia Keys, Eddie Murphy all visited this house. From the Richmond hill you get a panoramic view of the entire city of Montego Bay. The view stretches over 25 miles (40.23 meters) beyond. Before the fire persons could relax by the pool for a moment or just sit by the bar and have a cold red stripe (extra cost). Your tour guide will tell you all about the rich history of Richmond Hill Great House while doing your walk through. All of that is no more however, this is still the best spot to take pictures and feel the fresh mountain air. .

Great tour of Montego Bay

Published on Mar, 2023

Our guide, Dale, was great! Very friendly and very knowledgeable about Jamaica's history and day to day life. He encouraged us to ask questions and he happily answered. I loved that we learned so much about Jamaica's history and how the people live. Very informative.

So glad we went!

Melton was a fantastic guide. In addition to all the items listed s being on tour, he showed us an incredible number of fruit trees, and sometimes picked a sample for each of us. I had never eaten an almond right off the tree before--incredibly delicious. The only plea for a tip was by a very young (7 or 8?) girl who went to the neighborhood school funded solely by donations and the community. I have trouble walking so tour guide helped me during the one area where you walked up to the school. He was so supportive, knowledgeable, and personable. I highly recommend tour & Melton.

You will want to request Junior for this tour. He is extremely friendly, professional and informative. After spending this short time with Junior, it felt as though he was family. He is a true class act and I would highly recommend him!

Fun, friendly, professional

Lindsey was our tour guide and he was great. There were 9 of us on the tour and we had plenty of room. We went shopping, we ate, and visited other of the beaten path places. We didn't have to worry about crowds or anything. We made it back to the drop off point with plenty of time.

Beautiful memories

Published on Feb, 2019

The wonderful experience began the moment we were greeted at the port. Lindsey and his wife were gracious and hospitable. Our guide, Marlin, was super. He gave us a lot of information and had answers for all our questions. He went over and beyond our expectations!
