Your Kingston city tour begins with a trek up the north coast before arriving at Spanish Town. This former capital of Jamaica has a rich history dating back to the 16th century, when it was known as Villa de La Vega. Just 13 miles from Kingston, Spanish Town is home to several shining examples of Georgian architecture, including the remains of the Old Courthouse. Constructed in the early 19th century, the courthouse was built on the former site of a Spanish chapel and burned down in the 1980s; rumor has it that the location has been cursed since the British replaced the chapel with an ill-fated armory.

After exploring Spanish Town on this Jamaica tour, you and your expert guide will make your way to Kingston to see many of the city’s highlights, which include Emancipation Park, a beautiful 7-acre landscape known for its 11-foot bronze sculpture that greets visitors at the park entrance. This statue depicts a nude black couple gazing into the sky, and is meant to symbolize freedom from slavery. On this Kingston sightseeing tour, you will also visit Devon House, one of Jamaica’s most celebrated historical landmarks, where you can purchase tasty Jamaican delicacies, including Jamaica’s best ice cream. You will enjoy strolling through Kingston’s most elegant surviving 19th century mansion, magnificently furnished with 1860’s style, built by Jamaica’s first black millionaire, George Stiebel.

On your tour, you will also have the option to tour the Bob Marley Museum, or go shopping at Soverign Mall. See the best that the capital has to offer on this Kingston tour.
