Great tour with so much...
Great tour with so much information and the scenery was just amazing. Really need to get servicing done on brakes. Was a bit much.
D
Good information
We took the Conch train tour to get a quick overview of Key West. It was informative and we saw some interesting places. The tour only lasted 50 minutes, and at $90 I thought it was expensive. Also, it is very bouncy.
C
Great tour of the island.
We had so much fun on the conch train tour. Our guide Chris was wonderful, informative, funny, easy to understand and laid back.

Manny is the man!
We had one day in Key West and our first stop was the Key West Conch Train Tour with Manny as our guide. Manny is a native to the area and clearly loves & respects the history of Key West. He was super knowledgeable & funny, gave us a ton of information about the history and a lot of anecdotal tidbits that were interesting and surprising. I highly recommend this tour as a way to get an overview of the area and to learn about what makes it special and if you are lucky enough to get Manny as a guide you will have a great time! Tell him Dave & Erica from Maine sent you.

Great tour of Key West
Absolutely a fun way to get the highlights of Key West. I have been there several times, but I wanted to hear about the island. Our tour guide, Bobby, really made it a great time. I highly recommend this tour.

Superb entertaining way to start our visit!
I went on the Conch Tour train years ago when I visited Key West and so it was a natural first choice when I went back with my family: I wanted a tour that would interest and entertain the children, but also be good value for my wife and I, so we took the Conch Tour train as the first thing we did at the start of our Key West visit. This was a good choice: we had Manny as our guide who was first class, hugely knowledgeable and interesting, amusing, kept the whole family entertained, and we spent a happy hour and a half or so learning about Key West before setting out to explore it further. I’d recommend anyone who doesn’t know the town to start this way, and recommend both the Conch Tour train and Manny as guides: an atmospheric, enjoyable way to start the visit!

A Trip To Remember
I have been on this particular tour a few times over the years but this was by far the most in depth information a driver has ever given. Manny’s delivery of the various historical events was amazing. He had so much intimate knowledge of the city. He made a good tour great. The experience was made even more memorable in that o was entertaining family from Jamaica. Everyone had an enjoyable time. Please let Manny know that words are few and inadequate to express our deepest and sincerest appreciation.
