It was very insightful and a nice quick tour for someone who doesn’t want to spend all day doing excursions. The gift shop is very affordable and the pictures included a frame for only $12.

Visiting Rose Hall was interesting, with a cultural flair; but in all honesty it's nothing that I am not aware of based on a simple reading up of the location. What I like the most is the vegetation and The greenery around it all, the landscape is the best part for me.

This tour is ok. I thought I would be scare but is not scary.This tour is too short so they don’t go into much detail is better to read about before you go.
-

-
Good tour. I felt a little rushed. My significant other loved it. I'd consider returning to read everything that was of interest to me but not sure I'd I'd pay the same price. I did it during the day but I heard the night tour is better.
-
Good tour. Guide was friendly. Beautiful property. Was nice to have time to walk on the ground on our own after our guide finished.
-
A fantastic experience. Theisha our guide was absolutely fantastic at telling the story of the Great House. The stories could make you cry and chill your bones, but it was intermingled with funny moments as well. Really good to appreciate some of the realities of colonial history in Jamaica. The house and grounds are stunning. I would suggest trying the local cocktail at the end of the tour as well. A must see if you’re staying in MoBay

Well what can I say……. I was amazed of the history of the house. At night, Rose Hall is not for the faint of heart!
-
Very interesting place with the story delivered by a very knowledgeable guide. In the bar at the end I highly recommend the witches brew in place of the free fruit punch, it is worth the few dollars and you keep the glass.
