Hi Blessed Tours did and awesome job. They was on time, friendly, the vehicle was clean and smelled great. She was knowledgeable of the area. The only thing is I thought we was going to Kingston (museum) by the description but you don't. You go to the mausoleum which has a museum feel. I thought we was getting more but was NOT disappointed by what we recieved and for the price. The tour was educational and felt connected to Bob. One other major plus for me is our driver drive with sense. We felt safe and didn't feel like we was in a race car. I highly recommend this tour with Blessed Tours. We was so satisfied we booked her two days later to go from Montego Bay to Negril for the day. We will definitely teach it to Blessed Tours when we come back to Jamaica.

We highly recommend 7 Mile Beach and Ricks Cafe Sunset. We owe the life lasting experience to our Driver Claude. He was patient, Accommodating, understanding and answered every question along the way. Even when it was not understood we would stay the extra time to see the sunset, Claude went out of his way to make sure we got to stay the extra time to watch the sunset. We owe this once in a lifetime experience to Claude! He was also a very cautious and careful driver and my wife was very grateful for that! We strongly suggest you book 7 Mile Beach and Ricks Cafe through Get Your Guide and Request Claude for your driver. We thank you Claude so so very much for such an amazing day and experience we will never forget! ❤️

This is a must do excursion. Very informative, everyone was really nice and made us feel welcomed. The driver was very nice and gave us information along the way of different places we passed by. Any questions we had he answered. Definitely recommend

We traveled to Negril and the Route hugged the coast almost the entire way. Scenery was interesting, traffic was heavy. Enjoyed having a safe and comfortable drop off right at our resort.

Everybody was so hospitable and welcoming, they made my birthday the best ever.
