It's not an ordinary sightseeing tour. It's an extraordinary road trip among friends who just haven't met yet. You depart Marathon in a comfortable 15-passenger, air-conditioned van, and you'll travel over 20+ bridges on the Overseas Highway. Your driver is also your friendly local tour guide that entertains you with interesting stories and fun facts with a headset microphone set to a comfortable audio level. You are encouraged to ask questions and make comments and observe the wildlife and interesting sightings along the way. 

See the Southernmost Point, Hemingway's House, Mile Marker Zero, Sloppy Joe's, and Mallory Square and then enjoy approximately 3 hours of free time in Key West to do whatever it is you want. Add a sunset sail, Key West attraction, or a dinner cruise to enhance your experience. We'll provide you with a list of suggested places to go and things to do. Arrive back in Marathon about 2 hours after sunset.

You'll be picked up at your accommodations in Marathon or other specified location of your choosing. You'll receive an email with your pick-up time the day before your tour.
