We enjoyed this tour our first morning in Key West. It provided us a good sense of the city and where to spend more time during our stay in Key West. “Whiskey Rick” was the perfect balance of professional and fun. He customized the tour to our interests and provided great recommendations for meals and beverages. We enjoyed seeing and learning more about Key West. It was a great way to start our trip. Much appreciated!

Thank you very much for the awesome review!
Rick is an amazing tour guide! He is very accommodating and has forgotten more about Key West and most people will ever know
Thank you

We had a fantastic tour today with “Whiskey Rick”, our tour guide. Private tours are the way to go. We asked a ton of questions, and he definitely tailored the tour to what we were looking for (history and current happenings). We did not walk one block on Duval, but covered a large portion town on the backstreets. Rick was awesome. Fun, super friendly, and very knowledgeable. Overall, a superb morning.

Rick was everything we hoped for to get us going on our first visit to Key West. His blend of history, geography, and folklore kept us engaged and intrigued. He will surely be our go to guy on our next visit to Key West.

We greatly appreciated Ricks recommendations on what to see and where to eat and shop in Key West. We have already taken several of his recommendations and they were great! Rick was very flexible which we liked. We got more than we expected on this tour as Rick knows a lot of the locals in Key West. We recommend Rick!
Response from Host, Nov 2024
Awesome! Rick is very good at what he does and loves Key West! Thank you so much for the review!

I had THE best time with Whisky Rick! He had so much information to share about Old Town Key West and was so great with my many questions. He also made eating and shopping suggestions that I followed up on.
He warned me that I would be overwhelmed with information...and I was...but in a good way!
This walking tour is a must for those wanting to learn more about this amazing town. And it is a lot of walking, so make sure you are ready...I was, so I wasn't overexerted. Actually, at the end of the tour, I went back to places he had pointed out in order to spend more time.
When I return to Key West, I'm taking this tour again...there's just so much to learn!
Response from Host, Sep 2023
We are so happy to hear you got so much out of your tour! We agree, Whiskey Rick's the best, I know he'll be happy to see you again on your next trip down! We'll pass on your wonderful review, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Have a great rest of your vacation!

The walking tour was a good welcome to Key West, especially for those who have never been there before. The tour guide was very personable and offered several suggestions for restaurants and entertainment along Duval St.
Response from Host, Jan 2022
Thank you for your time to write a review. Your comments indicate that your tour was a good welcome to Key West, but you only chose three stars. It is indeed perfect for first-time visitors, but also customizable for experienced visitors. If you feel we can improve our tour, please give me a call or send me an email so we know how we can earn your 5-star review.

I was specifically wanting to become more familiar with the layout of the town in a short period. Rick did a great job of tailoring the tour to those expectations. I feel like I can now go or direct others to areas that are of specific interest to me. Thanks so much, Rick! I really liked the local perspectives you gave. Prior to the tour Rick contacted me to find out what I wanted to see and I mentioned seeing the fireworks without hanging out on the beach. He gave information that allowed me to watch the fireworks eating a delicious meal knowing I was contributing to scholarships for high school seniors. It was also nice to meet different people who live on the islands. When the walking tour was over I enjoyed a guided tour that Rick gave in the Truman White House. Probably wouldn’t have done that again but was having such a good day walking and enjoying the island. Great way to explore the island from the Atlantic to the Gulf. I will definitely contact Rick before returning to Key West.

Walking tour is a must do. It allows you to learn about all the sites first and then you can go back and spend more time in the spots you really liked. Our guide was very knowledgeable and alot of fun. He didn't mind going over the time limit to make sure we saw everything.
