Key West's deep history is too easily shadowed by libation and relaxation - but this tour is perfect, a historical primer and living lesson of Key West's culture of acceptance, with AJ as our fantastic guide. His knowledge about Key West's history and culture was infectious. Our group of 8 found that his tour was just what we needed to get comfortable with the area. Plus, he's got great recommendations for food and activities. Spot-on

Really fantastic tour! AJ was great, we learned so much about the history of Key West and saw all the sights. It was our first visit so it was great to set the scene for us. Highly recommend!

Penny_R

The guide on this walking tour did an excellent job explaining the history of Key West. I was glad we went early in the morn to beat the heat. I thought it included entry to the Hemmingway House but it did not. We just went back there later. We enjoyed the info & tour.

Dawn_C

Guide was very informative and knew a lot about the local history. He made the entire walk enjoyable and pointed out places to visit.

Lora_C

This is a fun, informative and relaxing walking tour. AJ is a great guide and personalized our tour with many suggestions to our limitless questions. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who can walk.

AJ was a great guide. He provided interesting history and background on Key West's history and some of its buildings and made the tour fun and interesting. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. After the tour we went to one of the restaurants AJ recommended and had some delicious key lime pie. We also stopped in Mel Fisher's jewelry store that AJ told us about and learned more about the Spanish shipwreck (the Atocha) that Mel Fisher discovered and looked at actual pieces of silver that were recovered from the shipwreck. We highly recommend this tour.

Rodney_H

This tour was average. The tour guide was very hard to understand because of the language barrier even though we signed up for English tour guide. When it was half over the guide didn't have much to show us except a walk from downtown to the southern most point. I wish there was more history to learn between those 2 points.

This is a “must do”. Don’t get pulled in on bike tours or trolleys. Put on your shoes and be ready to be informed and entertained. Alejandro is a highly knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide, full of interesting and quirky stories of the history of Key West. Even after coming to Key West for 24 years, I learned new and often humorous and/enlightening information. He augments the tour with excellent photos from the past of the same places that you are seeing, adding details that make it all come alive. GREAT TOUR!!!
