Bringing Sunshine through Rainy weather - Hearing all the local information and experiencing the courtesy of our driver Scott was fantastic. He managed to keep our spirits up in spite of the torrential rain. The aquarium provided the opportunity to feed the stingrays and see the habitants of the Ocean

Up The Keys Tour Keywest and surrounding areas - Wonderful private tour. Scott the owner is awesome. As we age we take more private tours to just sit back and see all sights and the history of the area. No hassle. Your own pace. Treat yourself to one on Up The Keys Tour.

Up the Keys Tour - Terrific indepth tour of the keys. Scott and wife are so very accommodating and Scott could explain so much about the area.
Being picked up and dropped off at our hotel was the best...not to mention the lunch provided to the group.

Great day away - Our group of four had a fantastic day. Scott went out of his way to ensure that every guest was enjoying the outing. We have been to Key West many times and were looking for something different. This was exactly that.

Tour after a hurricane - Scott was awesome. We were here right after hurricane Ian. Scott kept us posted as to what was open and what was closed. We ended up move out tour back one day. The aquarium was great, I was able to feed the animals. While we were at the aquarium, Scot got lunch for us at subway! He was open to all kinds of questions and very knowledgeable. We had difficulty finding the the deer… but Scott didn’t give up until we found a couple. I would recommend this tour to everyone. I was very impressed with his knowledge and his professionalism! He made it fun! I’m so glad we did this tour!!

Good time had by all! - We booked a partial day tour since this full day tour might have been too hard for my feet and legs. The tour organizer called us several days before to say they didn't get the minimum of riders, so would we like to join a group for the longer tour another day? We did. Tour guide Elaine did a great job in communicating with us and caring for us, even taking a sandwich order ahead of time. We especially enjoyed the dolphin center on Marathon Key, and the old seven mile bridge, some beautiful spots. The guide was flexible to our interest and energy level (we were two older couples).
