You will take off for a day of adventure along the full length of the beautiful Florida Keys. You can relax in air-conditioned comfort and enjoy a narrated tour of the Keys then arrive in Key West rested and ready to shop, play, and tour the island.
Every Miami visitor should experience the wonders of the Overseas Highway, once the route of Henry Flagler’s Florida Overseas Railroad, an early 20th-century tourist train connection to Key West. A 4-hour ride takes you along the Keys on this incredible highway that crosses 43 bridges to connect 31 islands on the way to Key West. You will cruise above open blue waters on the world-famous Seven Mile Bridge, an engineering marvel that has been featured in many movies including the Fast and Furious series. Expansive Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico views on both sides of the road, interesting small island communities, busy road-side marinas and fishing camps, and lush tropical foliage all around make an Overseas Highway tour one of the top American road trips.
You will arrive in the exciting island city of Key West just in time for lunch. Fine dining restaurants, casual outdoor cafes and food trucks, unique shops, boutiques, and galleries, and of course legendary Key West watering holes like Sloppy Joe’s and Captain Tony’s Saloon line the bustling streets. You can soak in the lively atmosphere, visit historic highlight attractions including the Southernmost Point, the Ernest Hemingway House and Museum, the Harry Truman Little White House, or Mel Fisher’s Treasure Museum. Be sure to save some time to relax on one the city’s public beaches or with a cold drink on a patio overlooking Mallory Square and Key West Harbor.
Visitors who love the water and want to spend an active afternoon can upgrade their Key West 1-Day Tour to include a snorkeling adventure, a parasailing flight, or a glass-bottom boat cruise. Bring your swimming suit and sunscreen! A Key West Trolley Tour option makes it easy to get around the island to see and do more during your time in Key West.

Miami to Key West and glass bottom boat
Jill S, Jan 2023 Verified
Great trip
10/10 recommend for those who don't want the hassle of driving
Jonathan S, Jan 2023 Verified
Ever since I discovered this company, I have been going to Key West quite often. Had I drove down there it would cost me $100+ gas + $40 parking (if you can find any). I've already told some friends and they also loved the experience. Tour guide is lovely and knowledgeable. Will always use this company.

A nice easy way to get to Key West for a visit!. A nice ride on a coach with helpful guide pointing out the highlights along the way. 6 hours to explore Key West, do some sightseeing, some shopping, and have time to eat some local fare! Don’t skip the key lime pie on a stick!Enjoyed the trip and well worth the money.
Great trip
Gary S, Jan 2023 Verified
The trip was very good The host and driver worked well together and were knowledgeable and professional. The only concern I have is that the text and email confirmations we prior to our departure indicated a different pickup location then our hotel even though we had printed documents when the excursion was booked indicating pickup would be at our hotel. We phoned the phone number listed on the text/email and were informed pickup was at our hotel. The text/emails created some confusion.
