Itinerary
Start your day with a pickup from your Miami or Miami Beach hotel, and relax as you travel south to Key West by bus.
The scenic journey follows a route across more than 40 bridges including the Seven Mile Bridge, setting for many a movie scene including True Lies, License to Kill, 2 Fast 2 Furious, and more. Hop between islands before arriving in Key West, where a laid-back, Caribbean vibe awaits.
The time is your own here to do whatever you want. Enjoy roughly six hours of free time and check out attractions such as Hemingway House, where Ernest Hemingway lived on the island. Or take a stroll through Mallory Square; it’s right on the waterfront in the historic Old Town of Key West.
If you want to maximize your time on the island, select one of these upgrade options and enjoy your activity when you arrive.
Conch Train: Ride an open-air conch train around Key West and learn about the island as you go. Listen to narration about the sights as you meander through Key West’s Old Town.
Trolley Tour: Enjoy a hop-on hop-off tour by trolley, and see the sights of Key West. It’s a great way to explore and sightsee at your own pace.
Snorkel Cruise: Jump aboard a catamaran for a 3-hour snorkel expedition to a nearby coral reef. Equipment is provided, as are non-alcoholic drinks.
Glass-Bottom Boat Cruise: Cruise out from land to see one of the world’s largest reefs, home to an abundant array of tropical fish and marine life.
Parasailing: Gaze down at Key West as you glide above the water from a modern parasail boat. Single and tandem rides are available, but participants must be older than six years of age.

First of all, I had missed the bus and called Viator to reschedule. Viator was extremely helpful with this. They helped me to get in contact with James from Grayline. He was wonderful and very professional. I know I was kinda annoying, but his professionalism and friendliness calmed me down and reassumed me. He immediately made alternate arrangements and rescheduled my reservation. James' excellent customer service skills and patience made all the difference in the world.
I highly recommend the Key West Day Tour. The bus driver was excellent. Our tour guide, Orlando, was outstanding. He went above and beyond for all of us, as a tour guide. I felt very fortunate in working with these men. They both played a key role in my having a great touring experience.
As far as the tour itself, I chose the the Conche Train Tour and the Trolley Tour. With the six hours I had free to tour, I wanted a thorough overview of Key West, and these tours did just that for me; plus, I had time to leisurely eat and have delicious mixed drinks at the end of both tours. Denver Dan was the tour guide and diver of the Conche Train, and he was great. His knowledge and humor, even though it rained, really made the tour enjoyable. He took good care of our group and made sure we had a good time. Rob was our driver and tour guide of the trolley. He too was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable of all of the points of interest. All of the vendors I encountered were very pleasant and welcoming. I cannot say enough good things about these tours. Oh, by the way, I went on these tours as a single woman. I had a great time.

The bus picked us up and dropped us off on time and at the right place. The tour guide was very friendly and helpful, and the snorkeling activity was well organized and fun.
Lakemia_P, Mar 2026
Amazing Experience I give it 100 out of 10!!!!
Extremely Nice and helpful staff from the time I was pickup on the bus from Miami to the time we were dropped back off in Miami. If you haven’t book yet I highly recommend you do!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Good morning Lakemia_P, Thank you so much for your feedback and i will mention to my staff of your kind words and very happy you had a wonderful time. Please come back and visit us again. Thank you.
Gianna_G, Mar 2026
This was super fun and worth the money. Didn’t know until boarding that drinks were all inclusive even alcoholic ones. Our tour guide Tamara was amazing.
Abel_L, Feb 2026
We had a bad experience to start they picked us up late and then we had to change buses on the first stop cause the air conditioner was not working properly on the first bus that picked us up
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hello Abel_L, thank you so much for your feedback. I will check into our bus that went out this day and make sure it is fixed. Please have a great evening and great week.
Elsie_S, Feb 2026
This tour was extremely disappointing and poorly managed from start to finish.
The bus left Miami about 40 minutes late, which already disrupted the schedule. When I arrived in Key West and checked in at 12:10 PM, I was told the dolphin watch was from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. I was also required to return by 1:45 PM to check in, meaning I had less than 1.5 hours of usable time.
The tour advertised 6 hours in Key West with about 3 hours of free time, but in reality, I had almost no meaningful time to explore. The dolphin watch ended at 5:00 PM and the bus left at 5:45 PM. The main purpose of visiting Key West was completely lost due to poor scheduling.
The situation became worse when we returned to Miami. I was not dropped off at the original pickup location at Bayside Marketplace. Instead, I was dropped off at South Beach at night without proper notice and had to pay for an Uber to return.
This tour showed poor coordination, poor communication, and lack of customer care. I would not recommend this operator.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Hello Elsie_S, i would check and make sure the description of our Key West Day Trip is correct, for it should say the duration of the time in Key West is 5 to 6 hours. If you have an excursion that will take some of the time. Sorry if that was not explained better and i would check to see if the drop offs and pickups i will make sure i speak to my driver and guide to make sure this never happens again. That you for making us aware.
Scott_F, Jan 2026
The travel is long but the destination and activity worth the price, to us. The host and driver were excellent!
The snorkel activity was great.
Donna_L, Jan 2026
Bus was an excellent choice to get to Key West. Guide/driver were top notch. Golf cart rental that was recommended was a good idea to get around the island on our own, but the rental place used was not the best. Cart was old, back firing, bald tires and needed repairs. It was in terrible condition—
Christie_G, Jan 2026
Parasailing was definitely a vibe! 10/10 the best birthday present! Fury adventures and the crew are definitely 💯
KikiSiuLing_Y, Jan 2026
This tour was good especially the time for arrival and departure was accurately.
The driver was good and the guide David was nice and speak in good English.
The tour bus is not spacious.
Carise_B, Jan 2026
The pick up went well and tour guide was great. She provided history and great suggestions for additional excursions. The only issue was the bus during a short rain shower. Water started dripping on us and several other passengers. my boyfriend had a white shirt that had black moldy water drip marks and brown stains from the seat cushion. there were also other big water marks on ceiling. The driver was great.
Susie_K, Jan 2026
The guide and bus driver were good. However, the bus was insanely cold due to the air conditioning being cranked to the maximum. After snorkeling and then sitting on the freezing bus, I ended up getting really sick.
I also noticed that buying excursions directly in Key West through Fury is much cheaper than purchasing them in advance—which is what I did. I requested a price adjustment after seeing the same excursions advertised elsewhere for significantly less, but they gave every excuse possible to avoid refunding the difference.
Because of this experience, I was very disappointed with Viator as a company. That said, the guide and bus driver were just doing their jobs, so this is not their fault. If I were to do it again, I would only buy the transportation and book excursions separately once in Key West.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Good afternoon, thank you for your valuable feedback. Our buses utilize air conditioning to maintain air circulation and promote a healthy environment for all passengers. Additionally, we pre-arrange excursions to ensure our guests have guaranteed spots and to avoid the disappointment of sold-out activities in Key West. I will personally look into adjusting the temperature settings for better comfort. We appreciate your input and hope you have a wonderful day.
Rengaram_S, Dec 2025
Very good experience, worth for the money rather driving 7-8 hrs in traffic by ourselves during a busy Christmas eve
bijesh_s, Dec 2025
Reasonable mode for a day trip to Key West from Miami! Very timely manner. Ample time in hand for selected activities! Suggest, do your homework before reaching Key West!
Wanting_Y, Dec 2025
The AC was so strong that my dad (70 years old) got really sick halfway of the trip and requested emergency stop to use the bathroom. The tour guide had absolutely no sympathy, she complained that we might delay the trip (which we did not), and didn’t checked even once if my dad was ok. Even the other passengers were worried about my dad’s condition and offered medicine and stuff. The company should train their employees how to provide better customer service. Also, the bus should have prepared emergency kits on board.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Hello Wanting_Y, thank you so much for your feedback. I know our buses should have emergency kits on board along with fire extinguishers. i will now check and make sure they are all on board all of our buses. i will also have a talk with our tour guide that was on the bus the day you was and i will have a talk with her and enter her in training again. I know our buses are cool for we do it that way for the spread of germs. I will see if we can bring it down within safety measures. Thank you once again for your feedback.
JagadishBabu_N, Dec 2025
Some of the seats are broken. There is a huge urgency to get to the top of the bus. There is no line. The kind of seat you get depends on where the driver pulls through before boarding.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Hello JagadishBabu_N, i will have a check on our buses and check the one you was on to make sure if there are seats like that we get them fixed. I know the seating comes first come first serve. i will check on the report of this day. Again thank you so much for your feedback.
Qian_C, Dec 2025
We greatly appreciate our driver and tour guide (express 1317) for their caring and calming and dedication to us! We have a blessed trip!
Shuwei_M, Dec 2025
Time is tight! Your booking website should say clearly how long the activities take and the time frame of the activity. Our family took a key west tour with dolphins watching and snorkeling without knowing the activity frame and how long does it take. It ends up the activity will take three hours, and we only have total 5 hours free time in Key west for a one day trip tour. The activity really ruin our other activities! Hope any changes in future on your website for booking.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Good morning Shuwei_M, thank you so much for your feedback. I will check into the description of the tour with my product department and see what it says and what needs to be added. Once again thank you for your feedback and have a great day.
Enrique_G, Nov 2025

Camilla_T, Nov 2025
I traveled with my friend from Italy. The concept and the organization were very good, a plenty of choices for live the key west and a lot of free time. The travel in general was very uncomfortable: a/c very high, a nightmare.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Good afternoon, Thank you so much for your feedback. I will check to see what we can do about the AC, for it is place like to prevent the spread of germs but i will check into what we can do. Again thank you so much.
Janet_M, Nov 2025
We had a great day in key west was long but definatly worthwhile ! On bus was offered hop on hop off , parasailing , golf carts , glass bottom boat and catamaran ! We opted just to walk around ourselves ! Had almost 6 hours in key west ! Tour guy informative ! Bus could do with an upgrade though !
Attica_R, Nov 2025
You need to upgrade your bus. It was extremely uncomfortable for something that is a 4 hour drive both ways
MILLICENT_S, Oct 2025
I met a woman who was taking the same tour and we instantly connected and exchanged info and are now friends.
Response from Host, Oct 2025

Tiffany_R, Sep 2025
Beautiful day trip, loved the glass bottom boat!
Some of the outlets on the bus need to be fixed though.
Tracy_F, Aug 2025
The snorkeling was amazing. The bus system was awful on the way home. Dropped off wrong area! Do better
Michelle_W, Aug 2025
Well organised and communication was very clear.
Although a long bus ride it was very good.
Had a fabulous day
Ivana_C, Jul 2025
Great Island to Explore. Only round transfers are included in the price of the trip. You need to make a day on the Island on your own.
Richard_W, May 2025
The price was just for round bus trip to Key West not including tour fees inside the city. Therefore, other trips like Hop-On-Off trolly is another expense.
Krasimir_C, May 2025
Thank you. A really nice trip and well organised. I had a great day the bridges and the small islands are beautiful and the town of key west
Peter_A, May 2025
It’s a very interesting, safe & enjoyable trip. Thamara provided informative history & a lot of unknown fact.
Response from Host, May 2025
Good morning, thank you for your wonderful feedback. I will let my tour guide know the kind words you had said and please come back and visit us. Have a wonderful day.
