Rejseplan
Ser du den store røde bølge lige foran? Det er svært at gå glip af, da det er det sidste, du ser før havet. Dette markerer det sydligste punkt i det kontinentale USA! Tja, noget. Lad mig forklare. BEMÆRK: Turen er over 100 + miles lang, med mere end 70 + lyd historier, og tager omkring 2 - 3 timer at fuldføre. Ny, livslang adgang, ingen udløb. Brug det når som helst, på enhver tur, så mange gange som du vil.
Det historiske Cedar House kommer op på vores højre side. Det er ret svært at gå glip af, givet navnet! Hvorfor kalder de det Cedarhuset? Tag et kig på huset og hegnet omkring det. Det er rigtigt, de er begge lavet af cedertræ. Dette er et af de eneste hjem i Key West lavet udelukkende af cedertræ.
Forude til venstre kan vi se det berømte Kapok-træ. Det er den store med brede grene, der breder sig lige ud fra stammen. Kapoktræer er nogle af de største blomstrende træer i verden og når højder på over 200 fod høje. De findes i varme tropiske klimaer og betragtes som hellige af mange kulturer.
Krydset forude markerer begyndelsen på US Highway One. Mile markør nul står lige foran på vores venstre side. Vi nærmer os fra bagsiden af skiltet, så sørg for at gå rundt til fronten for at se bedre.
Hvis du gerne vil tage en hurtig omvej til en piratattraktion, skal du dreje til højre ad Caroline Street. Dette vil tage dig til Captain George Carey-huset, hjemsted for Pirates Well. Brønden er lige ude foran huset.
På vores højre side står Captain George Carey House! Har du nogensinde hørt om "De tyske brudes vrag?" Det er en rigtig ting! Et skib forliste i nærheden her i 1800-tallet, og fem tyske kvinder overlevede. De var alle single, og hver eneste af dem endte med at gifte sig med en mand fra Key West!
Tag et kig til venstre. Ser du skiltet til Trumans "Little" Whitehouse? Det er en kort gåtur herfra, så hvis du har lyst til at tjekke det ud, kan du følge skiltene. Men hvis du ikke gør det, skal du bare fortsætte ned ad Whitehead Street, mens jeg fortæller dig lidt om det.
På vores højre side står Audubon House og dets omkringliggende tropiske haver. Du kan ikke gå glip af det! Dette blev bygget i 1849 og plejede at være hjemsted for kaptajn John Geiger, en af Key Wests rigeste mænd.
Vi nærmer os Greene Street, hjemsted for et meget specielt Key West-vartegn: Captain Tony's Saloon! Barstolene i dette etablissement bærer navnene på berømtheder, der har stoppet for en drink der. Vil du drikke i den samme bar, hvor Robert DeNiro, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan og Clint Eastwood engang smed et par tilbage? Dette er dit sted.
På vores venstre side står den nye placering af Sloppy Joe's. Tid til at rette historien en gang for alle. Som jeg nævnte, er dette ikke den originale Sloppy Joe's. Men vidste du, at det heller ikke var Kaptajn Tonys Saloon? Så hvor var originalen?
Tro det eller ej, det hvide hus med verandaen på vores højre side er det ældste hus på øen! Bygget i 1829, var det hjemsted for den fremtrædende ophugger, kaptajn Fracis Watlington, som boede der med sin kone og ni døtre. Ja, du hørte rigtigt: Ni!
Læg mærke til den store hvide kirke til venstre for os? Det er St. Paul's Episcopal Church, en af områdets smukkeste bygninger. Du ville ikke vide det ved at kigge, men kirken har set sin rimelige andel af tragedier og katastrofer gennem årene.
Kan du huske branden i 1886? Den hvide bygning med tre buegange på vores højre side er San Carlos Institute, og det var her, branden begyndte! I disse dage er det museum, bibliotek, teater og skole. Åh, og et kunstgalleri. Det er også blevet anerkendt som et af Floridas smukkeste vartegn.
Lige foran på vores højre side står Sommerfugle- og Naturkonservatoriet. Her kan du se over 50 sommerfuglearter fra hele verden, samt haver fyldt med blomstrende planter, eksotiske fugle og brusende vandfald. En slags paradis inde i paradis.

Great low cost tour of some of the most famous places in key West. Technology worked pretty well, and was easily able to select locations out of sequence on a moving map as we wandered around town. Lots of good "inside Key West" trivia included as well.

I’m happy you enjoyed the local trivia and insider stories that make Key West special.

Great information and very easy to use. You could start and end at any point which was great because the best parking in a crowded area was halfway through the trip. As soon as we got out of the car and called up the app, the narration began with directions to the route. Loved the ability to stop and go into a museum or other attraction, get a drink and then resume your walk. Do go into the Butterfly Conservatory. Best attraction in the Keys
Mark, I’m really glad to hear that my Florida Key West GPS Walking Audio Tour was easy to use and flexible enough to fit your day, especially with parking in a busy area. It’s great that the narration picked up right where you were and that you enjoyed the ability to stop, explore, and resume whenever you wanted—that’s exactly how I designed my tour. And I love the tip about the Butterfly Conservatory—such a great spot. I truly appreciate you sharing your experience.

We did the stops going backward due to our location. That threw off some of the narrative stuff going in reverse order. You can start anywhere, but I recommend going to the stops in ascending order.
Mike, I’m glad you enjoyed my Florida Key West Walking Audio Tour. You’re right—while you can start anywhere, the narration flows best when following the recommended order so the stories connect smoothly. I appreciate you pointing that out, and I’m happy you still enjoyed the tour.

This was an easy walk, up and back the two main streets in the old downtown Key West. Good history talks, this takes an hour or four, depending on photo and shopping stops…
Peter, I’m glad you enjoyed my Florida Key West Walking Audio Tour and found it easy to follow along the main streets of Old Town. It’s great that the history talks added value while still giving you the flexibility to take your time, whether that meant snapping photos or stopping to shop along the way.

Inexpensive. Easy self guided tour that takes you from Duval Street down to the Southern most tip in Key West. You can stop and pause when you need to, and also relisten to it later! Wonderful facts as you walk. Clear voice that's easy to listen to on your own device.

The guided tour of down town Key West was great. Due to some time constraints and where we were parked, we had to do the tour backwards. It would have been better to do the normal way as some information at later stops builds on earlier ones. However, the app worked really well and the information was interesting and fun. Definitely worth it!
Naomi, I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed my Key West walking audio tour. I totally understand how doing the tour backwards could cause some information overlap, but I’m happy the app worked well for you and that you still found it enjoyable. For future reference, starting from the beginning helps follow the flow of the information, but it’s great to hear you were still able to explore and learn.

Key West is beautiful, and has lots of interesting architecture. We enjoyed walking around town and learning some things about it as we went along.
Donna, I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed my Florida Key West Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour. It’s terrific that you could explore the beautiful architecture and learn more about the town as you went along.

We were very pleased, The positives: 1) Price is great $9.99 2) interesting information, And good length, each stop has around 1.5 minutes of info. Also Voice is easy to understand. 3) you can advance each stop on your own or it will go to the next stop based on your walking and gps. 4) begin tour whenever you want, no meeting time 5) you don’t have to steer at #1 stop, we began the tour midway since tattoo was near our ship. Small negative: It takes a few minutes and a little confusing to set up and get going. Not bad, but not just as simple as hit the reservation link. We will definitely use them again in other cities.
I'm thrilled to hear that you had a great experience with my Key West tour. It's wonderful to know that you found the price, information, and flexibility beneficial. I also appreciate your patience with the setup process, and I'll work to make it even smoother in the future.
