Our tour guide AJ was informative, interesting and fun. We covered a lot of of ground, made a variety of stops along the way, learned the history of Key West and heard a lot of interesting stories. A great way to learn about and see some of the sites of Key West.

We really appreciated Alejandro’s knowledge of the local Key West history and anecdotes. He supported his narrative with photographs on his IPad. The art and architecture of the region were also part of his presentation. Definitely informative!

We probably would have wandered around Key West aimlessly if we didn’t take this tour. A.J. Was a great guide. He provided history with some fun insights and surprises. It was a great way to explore Key West.

The best tour! So informative and you can tell the guide is so knowledgeable about history. Really easy conversation the entire time, which made it even more fun than just listening. 100% recommend!

This was such a wonderful walking tour! Our guide AJ was so kind and informative. I loved our relaxed walk together and seeing places off the main roads, and learning so much about different places along the way. it was a perfect way to see the city and learn so much from a local who is also such a knowledgeable historian. Every time we passed a touristy golf cart or bus, I was relieved I was seeing key west through this walking tour rather than a different mode. It was so peaceful yet still active. I loved it.
