This was the first thing we did upon arriving in Key West and we were so glad because we got the inside scoop on all the best places to eat and things to do. The people who lead the tour are locals and know this island like the back of their hand. It was so much fun and they were so nice and fun to talk to. We really had such an enjoyable and delicious time on this tour. I would absolutely do this again when we return in the future with family.

Very personable and knowledgeable guide - Chris. Excellent choice of restaurants; delicious food. Great hospitality and service. Only suggestion: End the tour in an air conditioned location that participants can cool off and chill out after the tour is over.
