Perfect overview to start your visit. - AJ is a wonderful guide-professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and a lot of fun! We wanted to get to know the layout of Key West and get a taste of the island’s history. This tour was perfect on our first day. We took the 9am tour so it was still quiet and cool- very pleasant. AJ provided so much information -historical, current and had pictures on his iPad to give us visuals of the past as well. Money well spent. This is a must if you only have a few days, want a taste of island history and still have time for the beach! Thanks AJ for a great visit!!

Great tour-a must do for first time Key West visit - Met our tour guide, AJ, at the appointed meeting place. He started right in with so much local history and interesting stories of local business. We walked and stopped to see points of interest and hear more stories at a great pace. The tour ended at the southernmost point, with AJ taking our photos and giving lunch recommendations before parting. We thoroughly enjoined our tour and cannot recommend it enough when visiting Key West.

Enjoyable and informative walking tour of Old Town in Key West! - My wife and I spent New Year’s in Key West, and since she loves learning the history of the places we visit, I booked this walking tour. Our guide, AJ, was fantastic and did an awesome job sharing stories and history as we walked through Old Town, ending at the Southernmost Point. The weather was perfect, the tour lasted about two hours, and the information was interesting, easy to follow, and never overwhelming. Of everything we did in Key West, this tour ended up being my wife’s favorite and felt like a great use of our time. Even though it was just the two of us on the tour that day, AJ still gave us the full experience and really took the time to share his knowledge. We were very impressed and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Key West.
