    AJ did a great job showing my wife and I around! He gave a lot of insight on how the island evolved over time with lots of historical photos. He showed us a lot of the buildings from different times and some fun side spots we’d never have even realized were there. He also gave some great restaurant and bar recommendations with the history behind them. This is a great way to see old town Key West, and AJ was a great guide!

    AJ did a great job walking us through KW, especially the original houses and giving us a glimpse into its history. He tried his best to keep us in the shade and AC as it was hot! The tour was about 2 hours/3 miles. Bring your walking shoes!
