Description

Explore the exotic side of Florida on a Miami to Key West Day Trip. A visit to Key West is a highlight of any Miami vacation, and The Key West Express makes it easy. In one busy, fun-filled day you can enjoy a road trip down the legendary Overseas Highway, tour the full length of the Florida Keys, and spend an afternoon shopping, dining, partying, and playing in unique Key West, America’s only Caribbean paradise.

Our Miami to Key West Day Trip offers the safest, easiest, and most economical way to add a Key West side trip to your vacation. Leave the driving to the professionals and arrive in Key West rested and ready to enjoy the island city. Eat, drink, and be merry Key West style knowing that your seat is reserved for a safe return to Miami in the air-conditioned comfort of a luxury touring coach piloted by an experienced driver.

Your Miami to Key West tour begins in the morning with a check in at the convenient downtown departure point or a free pick up from the major hotels in Miami Beach or Downtown Miami. Our modern touring coaches have all the necessities that make for a great trip – soft, comfortable reclining seats, tinted windows, and a high-fidelity sound system that makes it easy to listen to the tour narration.

The miles pass quickly as the coach rolls out of Miami, through the Southern Everglades on U.S. Highway 1 and down to Key Largo. Then blue water appears on both sides of the coach as you get on the Overseas Highway and enter a different world, with the Gulf and Atlantic waters almost constantly in sight as the coach heads south-west down the Florida Keys.

The highway crosses open water on 43 bridges, but the moment everyone anticipates is the Marathon Key jump-off onto the northern end of the renowned Seven Mile Bridge. Have your camera handy because the Bridge is a marvel of highway engineering that offers incredible ocean-scape views and gives the feeling of flying low over emerald blue water. You may recognize sights and scenes that were made famous in the movies Bad Boys, 2 Fast 2 Furious, and True Lies.

The coach glides back onto solid ground on Little Duck Key, gateway to the Lower Keys. Listen to the narrated tour while traveling through this historic region where blue water, white sand, lush tropical vegetation, and easy living recall the days of the old Florida Keys. Plan to arrive in Key West around noon with plenty of time available to explore the island. You can have lunch and a beverage at an outdoor café table, shop and sightsee in Old Town, or rent a bike and hit the beach.

For an active afternoon, The Key West Express makes it easy to upgrade your day tour to include a snorkeling trip, a parasail ride, a glass-bottom boat tour, or some jet skiing. Making arrangements is quick and easy with a few taps on a smart phone screen and our 100% secure online booking system. Book your Miami to Key West day trip now while space is still available!

The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Key West Bus Tours from Miami Overview

Choose from the best Miami to Key West day trips right here and spend a day exploring the Florida Keys and playing in tropical Key West – America’s Caribbean Island Paradise. A Miami to Key West Bus Tour is the easiest way to take in the full beauty of the Keys and arrive in Key West relaxed and ready for an afternoon of fun.

These great Florida Keys day trips begin with a morning pickup from most major Miami hotels. When all guests are on board, the luxury touring coach heads south on U.S. Highway 1 to the end of the Florida Peninsula. After leaving the mainland on the crossing to Key Largo, the road becomes the spectacular Overseas Highway and passes through incredible scenery for the entire 113-mile journey to Key West. With turquoise-blue water stretching on both sides of the road, the route hops from Key to Key over more than 40 bridges including the incredible Seven-Mile Bridge, an engineering wonder that has been featured in many movies and TV shows.

After traversing all of the Keys, the coach arrives on the unique, exciting island of Key West for a fun-filled afternoon. You can shop, dine, tour, enjoy the legendary bars, and hit the beach. For even more excitement, combine the basic Key West Bus Tour with a hop-on, hop-off trolley tour, a glass-bottom boat cruise, some snorkeling, or a parasailing flight. At the end of the day, relax on an stress-free ride back to your Miami hotel.

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers provided below are based on answers previously given to customers' questions.

Q: Are the Miami to Key West bus touring coaches comfortable?

A: Yes, they are very comfortable. The luxury touring coaches that carry our guests from Miami down to Key West and back are designed from the ground up for comfortable, safe, and convenient tour transportation. These coaches are engineered for sightseeing, with quiet, efficient engines and elevated seating placed behind broad tinted windows. And all coaches are inspected and licensed for touring operations by the State of Florida Department of Transportation.

The coaches feature a luxurious air-conditioned interior with a wide center aisle running between large, well-padded seats that allow plenty of room to relax on a long ride. The seats compare to business-class on an airliner, and the ride is so comfortable that it is tempting to nap through the trip. But it is a much better idea to lean back, enjoy the scenery, and listen to the narrated tour of the Keys broadcast over the on-board sound system.

With convenient pickup and drop off available from most Miami hotels, a bus tour is the most efficient way to take a Key West day trip during any Miami visit. In terms of time and convenience, it is far easier than dealing with the hassles of air travel for this short round trip. Moreover, having an experienced professional driver at the wheel makes a touring coach the absolute safest transportation option. You are also free to enjoy cocktails with lunch or dinner in Key West knowing that a designated driver will deliver you safely back to your hotel door in the evening.

Q: What makes a Florida Keys road trip down US1 so special?

A: Key West is unique in being the only Caribbean island that is connected to the U.S. mainland by road. The legendary Overseas Highway that runs 113 miles south-west from the tip of Florida to the last inhabited island in the Florida Keys has an interesting history and actually began life as a railway.

Gilded Age industrialist and Rockefeller/Standard Oil partner Henry Flagler became a Florida railroad and property developer in the late 18th century. When the planned construction of the Panama Canal was announced in 1905, Flagler conceived the idea of extending his Florida East Coast Railway south to connect the deep-water port at Key West to the Florida mainland.

After 7 years, 3 hurricanes, and many engineering innovations, construction was completed in 1912 and Flagler rode the first train into Key West. In 1935, the Category 5 Labor Day Hurricane devastated the Keys and destroyed 40 miles of train track. The bankrupt Florida East Coast Railway was unable to rebuild, so the roadbed and remaining bridges were sold to the State of Florida.

Construction on the original Overseas Highway got underway in the 1920s, and with several ferry links, officially opened to Key West in 1928. After the Labor Day Hurricane, the State seized the opportunity to complete construction of an improved road by using the former railway right-of-way and infrastructure. The current Overseas Highway opened in 1938, and several bridges were rebuilt in the 1980s.

Now, a tour down the Overseas Highway takes the visitor across narrow islands and through small towns that retain some of the feel of the Old Keys. The road crosses more than 40 bridges, including the famous Seven-Mile Bridge that seems to soar over blue water that stretches in all directions. From the west end of the bridge onward into the Lower Keys, there is a clear feeling of entering a different, more exotic world.

U.S. Highway 1 along the Florida Keys is truly one of the world’s foremost touring drives, and there is no better way to fully enjoy the scenic beauty and historic interest of the Overseas Highway than by riding in luxurious comfort aboard a modern touring coach while someone else handles the driving.

Q: What can I do on a Key West Bus Tour from Miami?

A: There is a nearly endless list things to see and do on a Key West Bus Tour, and a day trip down the Keys to America’s Caribbean Paradise is an experience that should be included in any visit to the Miami area. Our Key West Bus Tour from Miami is the easy and fun way to put together the best Miami to Key West Day Trip. It starts with fast online booking and instant confirmation, then the tour begins with convenient morning pick-up from most major Miami hotels.

Traveling along the fantastic Overseas Highway is a wonderful sightseeing trip in itself. Just south of Florida City on U.S. Highway 1, the route runs through the Southern Everglades, a unique natural wetland wilderness. Leaving the Florida mainland, the road crosses narrow land bridges between blue-water bays until a final road bridge across Lake Surprise leads onto Key Largo. A right turn to pass through the busy island village and the Overseas Highway proper begins.

For the next 100 miles, turquoise Atlantic and Gulf water, tropical foliage, marinas, fish camps, and small Keys towns pass outside the windows as the coach crosses over 40 bridges connecting both inhabited and uninhabited islands. The Seven Mile Bridge that crosses open water from Knights Key to Little Duck Key is a world-famous highlight of the trip and so impressive that it is often used as a setting for action movies and television shows.

Shortly after noon, the tour arrives in Key West and you are free to explore all of the possibilities of this exciting island city. Some visitors enjoy simply roaming Old Town and the surroundings, dining, shopping, and hitting classic watering holes like Sloppy Joe’s and Captain Tony’s Saloon. There are also many museums, historic sites, and galleries to check out.

An afternoon on the beach at Fort Zachary Taylor State Park or any of the island’s other public beaches is another great option. And there is enough time to head offshore to enjoy an activity like snorkeling, parasailing, or touring the reef aboard a glass-bottom boat. With 6 hours to spend in Key West, it is easy to get in one of these trips and still be back in time to have dinner before the coach returns to Miami.

Q: How can I get around the island after we arrive in Key West?

A: After arriving in Key West around 12:00 noon on your Key West Bus Tour from Miami, your island transportation needs will depend on what you have planned for the day. In general, the city is quite walkable. From Mallory Square and the popular Duval Street area in Old Town going south across the island through the Historic District to the beaches of the Atlantic shoreline is a distance of just over one mile. The coach will drop you off at a central point in Old Town, so walking tours of downtown Key West are easily done.

To roam a bit further, perhaps to the excellent beach at Fort Zachary Taylor State Park, popular Smathers Beach, historic charter boat row at Garrison Bight, or the White Street Gallery District, it is nice to have some transportation unless you are a serious hiker. Convenient rental options include bicycles, scooters, golf carts, and electric cars. Vehicles like these are very common on the streets and roads of Key West, short-term rentals are available, and you can choose according to your interests and needs.

Many pre-planned activities and excursions like snorkeling and parasailing trips, glass-bottom boat tours, and so on will either have departure points near the Bus Tour drop-off point or the operator will provide a shuttle service. For Trolley Tours, it is simple to hop aboard at the nearest Trolley stop. When you reserve ahead of time for one of these activities, you have the advantage of receiving all necessary details before arriving in Key West, making for a stress-free visit.

Q: Snorkeling, Parasailing, or Glass-Bottom Boat Cruise – which is best for my Miami to Key West Day Trip?

A: Among the great activity combination possibilities offered with our Key West Bus Tours from Miami, it is very difficult to choose a “best of” selection. This is because all three of these exciting experiences are bucket-list items that everyone needs to try at least once. If you are forced to pick just one for now, it is best to make an objective decision based on what is practical for you and the members of your touring party.

To begin with, folks who prefer to stay dry, elderly guests, or those traveling with very small children should almost certainly go on a glass-bottom boat cruise. These modern tour boats are designed to be comfortable and environmentally friendly while providing the best view of the underwater world you can get without getting wet. The boat features an upper sightseeing and sun deck with bench seating, clean restrooms and a snack bar, and a lower, enclosed observation deck with a large window that provides a great underwater view. A glass-bottom boat cruise is fun for all ages and an excellent educational experience for children.

Thrill seekers and extreme sports lovers will definitely want to try parasailing. A modern parasailing boat will take up to 12 passengers offshore to fly nearly 300 feet above the emerald waters near Key West. The parasail has a swing-like seat that can hold 1, 2, or 3 riders, so you can enjoy the flight with family and friends, or fly solo as long as you weigh over 90 lbs. The parasail lifts off from a platform at the rear of the boat and rises gently into the sky to offer a fun flight along with unique, panoramic views of Key West and the clear water below. Watch for bird and marine life, and if you want to get wet, ask to have a toe dip during your flight.

If you love the water and want to take a boat ride offshore to have a swim, and especially during the hot season, snorkeling in Key West is an activity that should not be missed. With simple, light-weight equipment and no need for special training, you get an amazing view of the corals, sponges, and tropical marine life that make the waters around Key West so popular with divers. Snorkeling is very easy, even for first-timers, and can be enjoyed by folks of nearly all ages and physical conditions. The only gear required is a dive mask, snorkel tube, and fins – all included in your tour package.

Miami To Key West Bus Tour

A key west day trip via world famous us highway 1.

Our Miami to Key West bus tours are the ultimate way to experience a Miami to Key West day trip along with the awe-inspiring beauty of the Lower Keys and the amazing engineering of the southernmost section of historic US Highway 1.

Spanning the entire 2,369 miles of the East Coast of the United States, Highway 1 is America’s longest north-south road. The 127-mile stretch that threads the blue waters and lush tropical landscapes of the Florida Keys, famously known as the Overseas Highway, is certainly among the country’s top scenic routes.

America’s southernmost US Highway begins with milepost zero at 490 Whitehead Street in the heart of Old Town Key West and runs north to Miami. Along the way, the road traverses a number of the Keys both inhabited and uninhabited and crosses open water at many points including the amazing Seven Mile Bridge. A road trip through the Keys on the Overseas Highway is a unique and wonderful experience, definitely one for the bucket list, and our Miami to Key West bus tours are the only way to go if you really want to relax and take in the sights in style.

Miami To Key West Luxury Bus Tours

Our luxury coaches surround you with comfort and convenience, and with an experienced professional driver at the wheel, they are absolutely the safest, easiest way to add a Key West side-trip to your Miami visit. You can gaze at the scenery, take photos, or simply relax, listen to the narrated tour and take it all in as you cruise in air-conditioned bliss free of the responsibilities of driving. The reward at the end is a fun afternoon in Key West, where you will arrive rested and ready to enjoy whatever activities you desire free of any stress or worries about transportation back to Miami.

Forget the stress of driving, and parking!

A coach tour is a perfect choice whether you are looking for a quick day trip, want to stay in Key West for a few days, or simply need efficient one-way transport to the island. At about 4 hours each way, with hotel pick-up and drop-off included, travel by coach compares very favorably with the time it takes to make your way out to Miami International Airport, clear security, and deal with the other hassles associated with flying to Key West. And besides the great sightseeing, a bus ride is just much more fun in general. You will enjoy spacious seating and onboard audio as you rest, chat with friends, meet new people, and learn a lot about the history and culture of the Keys.

Miami to Key West Packages

On our one-day round trip tours, you will have about 6 hours to enjoy Key West as you wish. You can tour historic landmarks such as the Southernmost Point, Mel Fisher’s Treasure Hunting Museum, Ernest Hemingway’s House, Fort Zachary Taylor, and more. Combine your bus tour with a fun activity like snorkeling, parasailing, a jet ski tour, or a glass-bottom boat ride. Or just enjoy some shopping and a leisurely lunch. Don’t be afraid to have a couple of icy cocktails – after all, you don’t have to drive, and will return safe and stress-free to Miami at about 10:00pm.

Miami, Florida Travel Guide

Airports & entry, planning tips, restaurants & eating out, nightlife & entertainment, getting around, accommodations, attractions.

Miami is a city that thrives of nightlife but that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of things to do that are family friendly. In fact, a vacation in Miami might even be educational for all travelers, in a fun and not so obvious way.

Whether you plan on spending your time in Miami at the beaches, partying at the Clevelander or at South Beach, or you plan on taking in the cultural and historical aspects of the city, Miami is a place everyone can enjoy.

Key West is a popular travel destination in the US and for many good reasons.

Not only can you visit some great places, like the seaport, one of the many museums, and even the famous Sloppy-Joe’s Bar, you can also bask in beautiful weather and enjoy watersports such as a jet ski tour in the crystal-clear waters.

If you are flying into Miami, you’ll likely land at Miami International Airport , dubbed MIA. This airport is very busy every day of the week and 24 hours a day. In fact, over 1,000 flights depart or return here each day. This means that things can get hectic, but there is usually staff around that can help point you in the right direction.

When leaving the airport, you have several options. If your hotel offers a free airport shuttle, this is going to be your best bet for getting to your accommodations quickly and affordably. If they don’t and you don’t mine ridesharing, there are several shuttle services leaving the airport often. You can choose from SAS Transport Service or Go Airport Shuttle.

If you are flying into Miami from another country, you will need your passport as well as authorization. If you will be staying less than 90 days, which most visiting travelers do, you will need to apply for an ESTA, Electronic System for Travel Authorization . Essentially, this is waiving your visa that you would need if you intend to stay for more than 3 months.

It’s important to keep several things in mind when planning your vacation to Miami. If you have other tips for those who will be visiting the Magic City, or if you have questions about your trip that aren’t answered in this guide, we would love to hear from you in the comments!

Tip #1: Miami vs Miami Beach

The City of Miami and Miami Beach are two different places. While you may want to spend time in both places during your stay, you should choose accommodations in the place where you intend to spend the most time. The easiest way to get from one to the other and back again is with either Uber or Lyft. It’s also the most affordable.

Tip #2: Choose Local & Day Trip Tours

Just as with any city that attracts many travelers each year, there are plenty of tours available. You might want to take a guided tour of several different museums, or of the art district. You can even take a day trip tour away from the hustle and bustle of Miami and head to Key West for a sunset cruise .

Tip #3: Spend at Least One Day at the Beach

Even if you aren’t going to Miami to sit on the beach the entire time, you should spend at least one day there. There are many beaches up and down the coastal areas of Miami and Miami Beach so you’re sure to find one that has the vibe you’re looking for. Don’t really want to sip cocktails all day under an umbrella? Try a more family-friendly beach instead.

Tip #4: Get Wrapped Up in the Cuban Influence

The Latin American influence is everywhere in Miami, from food and drink to music and dancing. Most likely, you won’t get the same authentic Cuban experience anywhere else outside of Cuba so soak in the culture.

Try a cafecito, a strong and delicious Cuban coffee. Be mindful of the caffeine kick, however. Try various Cuban meals. And even if you only go just to listen and watch, step into a Cuban bar or nightclub one night just to get a feel for the flavor.

Tip #5: Safety First

Leave any expensive items you won’t need while you’re out and about back in your hotel room. If you won’t need them on your trip at all, you might want to think about leaving them at home. Try not to flaunt flashy jewelry and or an expensive camera. Not only do these things indicate you’re not local, but they can also make you a target for theft.

Because you most likely won’t be familiar with the areas of Miami you will be visiting, grabbing an Uber or Lyft to get to where you are going is probably the best idea. This way you get where you need to go without getting lost.

You may also want to ensure your health insurance will cover you while you are in Miami. If it won’t, supplemental health insurance plans for travelers is available.

There’s no denying the Latin American influence in Miami. Even if you only pick up a small lunch from a food truck to try a bit of Cuban flare, you should at least try something with the Cuban kick. In Miami, you will find everything from modern restaurants ran by celebrity chefs to food trucks that offer anything you can imagine.

Some of those celebrity chefs at work in Miami are Tom Colicchio at the Beachcraft restaurant and Paul Qui at Pao by Paul Qui. Want a modern throwback? The Wynwood Diner is a modern take on the classic roadside diner. Then you also have gastro-pubs such as Finka Table & Tap .

While there are plenty of nightclubs up and down the beach as well as in several areas of the city, you’ll also find plenty of dive bars with a laid-back vibe as well as some craft brewery options that have finally made their way to Miami.

Craft beer is a newcomer to the nighttime scene in Miami. As a “cocktail town,” Miami is the perfect place to find the classic cocktails alongside new, modern cocktail inventions. No matter what style of late-night entertainment you enjoy, you’ll find it in Miami.

One recommendation: The Ball & Chain . Once a favorite watering hole for the likes of Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, and others, this bar and lounge will take you back through history just by walking in the door.

Driving in Miami may be more stressful than helpful. Many locals get frustrated with tourist traffic and many of those who decided to rent a Ferrari or Lambo usually get frustrated with the locals who don’t drive as fast as they want to. This means that renting a car isn’t your best option.

You also won’t want to depend on public transportation. It’s not very reliable and oftentimes won’t get you where you need to go.

The two best options are either a traditional taxi or the modern equivalents, Uber and Lyft. A taxi will most likely cost you much more than an Uber or Lyft ride, and Uber or Lyft will come to pick you up. This is much easier than trying to hail for a taxi.

You’ll find a wide range of accommodations in both Miami and Miami Beach. Luxurious high-rises are just as common as smaller, boutique hotels. If your trip is centered around the beach, you may even want to rent a bungalow.

When staying in Miami for a longer period of time, perhaps a week or more, then home sharing services such as Airbnb are a great option. You get to live like a local and save a few dollars as well, being able to cook a few meals at “home.”

The hotel where a party is always happening is The Clevelander . If you’ve come to Miami to party, that’s where you’ll want to stay. Then there are the classics like the Fontainebleau Hotel with its unique architecture. Frank Sinatra was a regular guest there and even today you may bump into a few familiar faces.

The perfect time to visit Miami is between March and May. If you’re still dealing with the cold and it’s been a long winter, head to Miami for a few days to warm your toes in the sand. The summer months can get pretty hot and humid, but some say that just makes the party even better.

Starting in the fall, you’ll encounter hurricane season so unless you have travel insurance in the event of poor weather, booking your trip to Miami in the Fall may not be best.

However, it doesn’t matter when you visit, there will always be something going on in Miami. Miami Fashion Week and the South Beach Wine & Food Festival are popular, annual events. If you’d like to visit during the time of a specific event, there’s really not a horrible time to visit.

Snorkeling, scuba diving, and other watersports are a popular activity for families, couples, and groups alike. The waters off the beaches of Miami and Miami Beach are known for being clear and cool, perfect for enjoying the sight of some beautiful marine wildlife.

The art scene is huge in Miami. There are many galleries, and art museums as well, around the city. However, most are located in the art district. There are tours that can take you to several of these locations. Sometimes you can even get discounted entry into several locations all for one, bundled price.

I had the worst experience with them I have ever had. We had booked a tour and arrived to our meeting spot early and was told 20 minutes before that our tour was cancelled due to "maintenance." So, they rescheduled us for the next day. The next day we arrived on time and called letting them know we arrived and they DIDNT EVEN KNOW WE HAD SCHEDULED. We were supposed to meet at 10:45am and at 10:57am they told us that they cancelled again due to a marathon blocking the dock. I got a text saying I would be refunded plus extra for issues and inconvenience. I had to call four times before anyone would respond to me and got screamed at on the phone for asking for the refund plus extra for all the issues, WHICH WAS PROMISED TO ME. We had to take ubers to get there and waste a lot of time. This company was incredibly rude and obviously do not respect their customers at all. I have never had such a terrible experience with a company. DO NOT BOOK WITH BIG DAVE TOURS UNLESS YOU WANT TO DEAL WITH A RUDE COMPANY OWNER WHO TELLS LIES. Read more Written January 31, 2024
Voyager03816646941 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Truly dreadful. DO NOT USE. This outfit are truly terrible. Appalling. DO NOT USE. Our booking was for 1400. They asked us to be there at 1345 which we were. The transfer boat did not arrive until 1430. We didn’t start on the jet skis until 1530/1545. The guide told us to wait and then would take us on to another area where there was some form of refreshments etc. We were just left to our own devices around the drop off pontoon with no briefing as to the form for the session. We were expecting a tour around the Miami Bay Area. No refreshments available for the last 5 hours….mot even water! I doubt we’ll be back to our hotel until 1800. One of our party will have arrived this afternoon without us being there to greet her as a consequence. The jet skis themselves were in poor condition as was the transfer boat; which itself also arrived with no fuel which added to our impatience. The guide we were told we’d get never arrived! The previous group was late finishing as two of the jet skis ran out of fuel. Seriously, you couldn’t write this stuff!!! AVOID. Read more Written December 27, 2023
luna4f4 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Awesome Time in Key West ! Exploring the Florida Keys from Miami to Key West was a breeze with the bus/coach travel option. It offered us the ultimate comfort and convenience, allowing us to focus on the adventure ahead. We chose the Glass Bottom Boat tour, and it was a mesmerizing experience, getting to see the vibrant marine life through the crystal-clear waters. I can't recommend this journey enough; it's a must-do for anyone visiting the area! Read more Written October 31, 2023

schoenebornd 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Horrible service, old skis and rip off Took $75 not $50 gas I would not recommend at all. Very unorganized. made us wait over an hour to only rip us off. They advertise $50 gas fee but when you get there they charge $75 and go on a smelly ripped pontoon. The jet ski kept shutting down. I was ok with this but I wanted an hour. Really horrible customer service. They should not be operating. Do not recommend at all. Read more Written October 5, 2023

DannyE902 0 contributions 4.0 of 5 bubbles Fun tour with a great guide. Needs better/more thorough meeting point instructions. This was a nice activity; about a nice 90 min boat ride tour viewing celebrity mansions. The tour guide was very good and she had a good sense of humor. The only annoying thing about this trip was trying to find where the meeting point was. It wasn’t super descriptive and the trip details said something about Big Dave Tours kiosk which doesn’t exist. We finally found where we were supposed to go but by that time we missed our reservation and had to wait until the next one. Overall it was a nice excursion to do.

wonderlust802 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Awful, unorganized - Go to Bayside instead. Booked and paid for our excursion for 12:30pm on 8/22. We needed to arrive by 11:45 for it. At 10:24 while we were finding our way there I received an email cancelling our booking. No call just an email that I did not get until we arrived and we’re waiting at the pier. Don’t waste your time go to Bayside and rent a boat there. We paid for parking and had parked the car already. As far as I’m concerned I’m owed a full refund and $15 for parking as we had to pay parking again when we went to bayside. Read more Written August 23, 2023

The operator did text us previously and told us they were running late and that they moved out 3:30 booking to 4:00. We did not get on the jetski until 5:15. (Original booking at 3:30) We had to rearrange the rest of the day because of that . It was a good experience but do not expect it to be on time . Read more Written August 6, 2023

Miami to Key West – Key West Tours

Home to many of the world’s most exotic attractions, Miami is a dreamland of sorts for any tourist who wishes to explore some of the finer things in life. The city is divided so beautifully into many tourist segments and without the help of Key West Tour guides it would be almost impossible to enjoy the raw beauty of the place. However, your journey from Miami to Key West allows for the perfect start to a fantastic vacation. Key West is the westernmost island among the Florida Keys and the southernmost city. The distance by road from Miami to Key West is around 160 miles where you take on as many as 42 bridges that include the mesmerizing 7 mile bridge. From flight to cruise ships, many modes of transport connect Miami to Key West. Superb weather conditions and scenic charm are hallmarks of this popular destination. There are flights that leave daily from Miami to Key West, and small planes known as “puddle jumpers” also operate on this route. A direct flight takes 40 minutes, while indirect flights with one or more stops are also available.

Driving from Miami to Key West is the best way to experience the scenic beauty of the place. You could rent a car, bus or shuttle. There are many big brands and smaller operators who provide car rentals and shuttle services. A series of bridges connect mainland Florida to the Keys. The distance can be covered in 3 hours, although the time taken is dependent on the traffic. Among the shuttle services, the Keys Airport Shuttle ferries passengers from Miami airport to the Keys, but there are many other local public buses also available. The bridges that slope above the blue green waters of the ocean on the road from Miami to Key West are the highlights of any road trip. You get to cover the longest bridge, the Seven Mile Bridge which connects Knight's Key (part of the city of Marathon, Florida) in the Middle Keys to Little Duck Key in the Lower Keys.

Key West Attractions

In Key West, the business and tourist hub is Duval Street, characterized by bars, fast food joints, galleries and Cuban restaurants. The outstanding Marquesa boutique hotel and restaurant is at the Fleming Street. On the highway in Islamorada is a small monument to the Cubans who died in their attempt to reach the US shores. A 10 feet buoy that stands on the pavement on the corner of South Street and Whitehead announces this to be the southernmost point of the USA. Other tourist destinations include the Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory which is an indoor sanctuary replete with waterfalls, flamingos, bromeliads, orchids, and clouds of butterflies. The Vandenberg wreck that offers a trip inside a ship that sank in 2009, and the Ernest Hemmingway Home and Museum, a must see for literature enthusiasts, are some of the other attractions worth a visit.
