    Bus ride from Miami to Key West. The air vents over individual seats don’t work. Bus was hot. Some seats were broken. No TP in the boat bathrooms.

    Day was very long but Key West was worth it. Mini Train ride around the city was fun. Dolphin sighting was wonderful. Snorkelling was a let down though, Water was merky and not what we expected at all. This was the only downfall. Service on the boat was exceptional though.

    Capt. Brian was awesome and very informative! We spent 2 hours touring the eco systems of the Keys. Already booked our next trip.

    My son and I, along with another couple we did not know, were picked up in a van at a Fort Lauderdale hotel at 6 a.m. I did not know we would meet the main bus in Miami. We waited around 45 minutes to be picked up. Then we headed out. The scenery was beautiful and the bus was comfortable with good air conditioning. We stopped at a tiny restaurant on Key Largo for breakfast. The food was good, but the lines for the food and bathroom were not. Breakfasts were $8 a piece if you got the plate meals that were on special (breakfast sandwiches with potatoes, pancakes, etc.). We took off again. Our guide was knowledgeable and gave information in English and in Spanish. She then told us of special trips and activities we could buy from her while in Key West. It would have been helpful to know this ahead of time as they expected cash only. Luckily I had enough to buy my son and I two tickets for a glass bottom boat ride to the coral reef ( a two hour trip-$90). We also bought trolley tickets since it was 92 degrees with a 105 heat index( July 27, 2018), and I did not want to have to walk all over the island. I thought the trolley tickets were expensive ($35 for the day). We later found out they stop running the trolley at 4:30 and we were there til 6:15 so we only got to use the passes for a couple of hours and we did have to hike back to the bus. Overall, we saw old forts, the southernmost point in the continental U.S., the coral reef, beautiful historic homes, and we toured Ernest Hemingway's home. The food and snacks near Mallory Square were delicious, the people were friendly, and the views were amazing. I would like to go spend more time when it's not so bloody hot. On the way back through Miami, they drop EVERYONE off near their hotel. With us being the last ones dropped off, we were in Miami for two hours in traffic dropping people off. It made for a long very long day, but we were glad we got to experience a bit of Key West.

    Called last minute as we didn't know our schedule with all the craziness going on.
    Capt was open and lite hearted, which made the whole trip that much more fun.

    Great boat, really clean and plainly of room. We caught grouper, snapper and Mahi Mahi all in 6 hours. We only scheduled a 4hr, but was having so much fun, the captain let us extend it.

    Will 100% do this again, and can not recommend this trip enough.

    Being crammed on a glorified Greyhound bus for a three-hour drive actually takes 6 hours to get there in the morning, and an additional 6 hours to return. If you are leaving from Ft. Lauderdale, you have to sit on the bus and make all the stops to pick up and drop off all their stops in Miami. SO NOT WORTH IT! The best part, the A/C broke while driving there and they pulled multiple times on the side of the road trying to fix it while we sat in the bus.

    Needless to say, spending 12 hours on a bus in one day for a 6-hour drive is a total waste of a vacation day, much easier to drive it yourself and not have to deal with sweaty, stinky people and the smell of dirty diapers.

    The best part, when we finally arrived on Key West, we were signed up for the snorkel adventure and it was too windy so it was canceled, now trying to get a refund through a website is nearly impossible. What I didn't know is that you can drive to Key West yourself and then sign up for any of the adventures and be in total control of your own time. Don't get fooled by their descriptions of what the day will be like if you book with them.

    The tour guide was rude, bossy, and we as the clients were clearly an irritation to assist.

    I was so incredibly disappointed in how the day went and how their staff handled the situation. Prior to booking the tour, I called and talked through the expectations only to discover several lies they used as tactics for me to book our group of people.

    I will NEVER again use this tour group, nor recommend it to anyone. What a joke of an operation - I'm surprised they can stay in business.
