The Key west tour was really smooth. They pick you from your hotel to the island. And you then have 6 hours by yourself. After that, they will drive you back to each person’s hotel. Notice that if your hotel is in Miami Beach you’ll be last as they do hotels in Miami, Miami downtown, and then Miami Beach. So I reached my hotel around 9 pm.

Hear From Our Previous Guests
Day trip to Key West, had hotel pick up, great driver and good commentary all the way down. It takes all morning to get there, booked a trolley ride during the day and we left around 5.30, a great place to visit. A good company to do it with. Enjoyed the day.
We had only one day to experience Key West. With Gus at the wheel, we saw much and learned even more. We relayed our vision of the day’s activities as Gus and Michelle provided the how-to…Nothing can beat a family business! They were professional, friendly, and efficient.
I did the Key West day tour which was great. Very well organized and the guide gave enough information as well as letting us relax on the long trip. Key West is a fantastic place to visit too and we had lots of time to explore without feeling rushed.
