You pull away from the coastal heat and climb into the island’s green spine: narrow two-lane roads, low stone walls, and villages where music leaks from open windows. The ride to Bob Marley’s Nine Mile mausoleum is part pilgrimage, part landscape tour — a two-hour private transfer that trades the roar of the highway for hillside panoramas and small roadside markets.
