Key West's deep history is too easily shadowed by libation and relaxation - but this tour is perfect, a historical primer and living lesson of Key West's culture of acceptance, with AJ as our fantastic guide. His knowledge about Key West's history and culture was infectious. Our group of 8 found that his tour was just what we needed to get comfortable with the area. Plus, he's got great recommendations for food and activities. Spot-on

Really fantastic tour! AJ was great, we learned so much about the history of Key West and saw all the sights. It was our first visit so it was great to set the scene for us. Highly recommend!

The guide on this walking tour did an excellent job explaining the history of Key West. I was glad we went early in the morn to beat the heat. I thought it included entry to the Hemmingway House but it did not. We just went back there later. We enjoyed the info & tour.

Guide was very informative and knew a lot about the local history. He made the entire walk enjoyable and pointed out places to visit.

This is a fun, informative and relaxing walking tour. AJ is a great guide and personalized our tour with many suggestions to our limitless questions. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who can walk.

AJ was a great guide. He provided interesting history and background on Key West's history and some of its buildings and made the tour fun and interesting. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. After the tour we went to one of the restaurants AJ recommended and had some delicious key lime pie. We also stopped in Mel Fisher's jewelry store that AJ told us about and learned more about the Spanish shipwreck (the Atocha) that Mel Fisher discovered and looked at actual pieces of silver that were recovered from the shipwreck. We highly recommend this tour.

This tour was average. The tour guide was very hard to understand because of the language barrier even though we signed up for English tour guide. When it was half over the guide didn't have much to show us except a walk from downtown to the southern most point. I wish there was more history to learn between those 2 points.

This is a “must do”. Don’t get pulled in on bike tours or trolleys. Put on your shoes and be ready to be informed and entertained. Alejandro is a highly knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide, full of interesting and quirky stories of the history of Key West. Even after coming to Key West for 24 years, I learned new and often humorous and/enlightening information. He augments the tour with excellent photos from the past of the same places that you are seeing, adding details that make it all come alive. GREAT TOUR!!!

The tour and guide were fantastic! AJ was very knowledgeable, and did a wonderful job showing us the sights and keeping us entertained!

Amazing toue guide highly recommend learned so much about key west even though we we have been here 10 times and taken so many other tours

Fabulous walk to see historical sites. Alejandro was very thorough. We were lucky enough to go early and had a private tour.

AJ was a great tour guide. Got to see a lot during the 1.5-mile walk, with plenty of stops in the shade. Definitely recommended to learn more about the interesting history of Key West and get some tips on the best times to visit other attractions like the Hemingway House and Butterfly Sanctuary.

AJ is an amazing guide! The tour hit all the historical sites and he used an iPad to share historical photos of then and now. The walking pace was perfect and AJ knows all the shady spots on a hot day! Highly recommend this walking tour!!

We had a great Saturday stroll with Alejandro learning about the history of Key West and architectural highlights. The 9am time was perfect to avoid the heat.

This is a must do tour and should be at the start of your vacation but will enjoy and learn even if you have been to Key West before. Several people had said “Don’t pay for a tour, just walk on your own.” So glad I had already booked this tour. Our guide, A.J, was fantastic! We started outside the Kino Sandal Store and ended the tour with AJ taking our picture at the Southern most point ionic landmark. He knew how to take a great picture without waiting in the long line. That alone was worth the price of the tour! AJ stopped in the shade (thank you!) to tell us about local buildings, history of Key West with funny tidbits thrown in. We learned so much about Key West in a short (an hour and 15 minutes I think) and entertaining way. He books 10 or less people in a tour and uses an ipad to bring the history to life with old pictures. AJ shared places to visit: buildings, tours, activities, restaurants and local bars. My husband enjoyed the tour also even though I pushed him to go. Our tour started at 9:00am when it is cooler and quiter. Yes, I would recommend this tour and the local guide AJ! Most of the pictures I included are from the tour and the 2 from Mallory Square Sunset Celebration are reminders of the many free and fun activities to do in Key West. We did this tour instead of the trolleys/trains for the more personal and up close touch but would still benefit and learn if already have done a ride on tour. This walking tour does not go inside any buildings. It guides you on the culture and history of Old Key West and what moulded it into todays Key West.

My wife and I highly recommend this walking tour with Alejandro (AJ). We took this our first day in Key West, and it gave us all the information we needed to make the rest of our week amazing. He is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, and worked hard to keep us in the shade as much as possible as it was a hot day. If you wanted to learn more about the history of Key West, take this tour!

This is a great experience. It’s low key. Not too many people. Quiet. Tasteful. AJ is an awesome tour guide, a pleasure to listen to. Fun, knowledgeable, holds your attention the whole time.

AJ is a knowledgeable and friendly guide able to answer all our questions. A recommended tour! ......

Great tour and tour guide, Alejandro. Small group tour gives opportunity to hear everything and ask questions. He made sure we stopped in shady spots which was great on a warm and sunny day. Provided great ideas on stops as we returned on our own from Sputhmost point. This tour is a lot of walking, especially if you walk back and tour things along the way. Very enjoyable.

Very detailed interesting tour! AJ was very friendly & knowledgable, he gave us info & stories which we found funny, fun & enlightening!
