Miami to Key West Day Trip Transportation

Wonderful experience. Clear expectations every step of the way from our guide. Truly enjoyed his energy!

We had a great experience traveling by bus from Miami to the Florida Keys. The driver and our hosts were great. We got to spend enough time in the keys. The bus was nice with air-conditioning and it was timely. Getting there and timely getting back.

The guide and driver were punctual and courteous. Both very good. However we were switched between two buses, both of which had issues. A portion of rhe passengers weee moved to a 2nd bus 30 minutes into the drive because there were air conditoning issues. On the return trip our bus broke down. And the bus with the AC issues was callled back and alll passengers put into that bus which was hot and stuffy. This caused delays of 30 minutes to an hour. We were dropped back to hotel at 10:30pm The price and itinerary were good but clearly the buses were old and requried maintenance. Loved Key West!

Our driver / tour guide IRA was AWESOME!!! Highly recommend him. The alligator park was so much fun! Saw 5 or 6 alligators and a baby. The alligator show was very informative. Learned a lot about their rescue efforts and about the alligator itself. I would highly recommend this trip.

A great trip. Even though the journey is 4 hours. The scenery and our host Lewis made the time pass by very quickly. Key west is stunning and has enough to fill the 6 hours you are there. Our driver Milton was also fantastic and made sure the journey was as quick as possible

Great opportunity to spend some time in Key West and see scenic Route 1. You also get plenty of time to do more than one activity or sight.

Beautiful snorekling experience, superb scenery on the road, very friendly guide ........

This tour basically just provides the transportation from Miami to Key West, which is fine but the bus was filthy. I can honestly say that I have never been in a dirtier bus anywhere in the world. There was a hand written sign in the front of the bus that states that the front row seats on the upper deck cost an additional $20 per person. Yes, those seats provide better views. I can understand that . But the windshield was filthy, full of stains, streaks and dried bird poop. One cannot get a nice view nor can one take a good photo through the window. Not only that, the seats had food crumbs on them and the surrounding areas are filthy, full of stains, dirt, and the cup holders were wet with some kind of liquid inside. It was gross. I strongly suspect that the guide just put the extra charge sign up just to make himself and may be the driver a few extra bucks. I wonder if the company even knows about this. The guide also spent a lot of time selling tickets to various activities in Key West. BTW, the hop on/ hop off trolly ride , at $60+ per person was a rip off. The guide also mentioned 3 times during the bus ride that we should tip him and the driver and even suggested the percentage of the tip. All this felt really sleazy. A tip is an expression of an appreciation for a job well done and it’s called a gratuity, meaning it should be gratuitous and not to be aggressively solicited. But the filthy condition of the bus is what kept me from taking a Viator tour again. I understand these providers are sub contractors but Viator should vet them more carefully. A negative experience ruins Viator’s good reputation.

We had a great time in Key west but be aware you are not getting to enjoy key west for a full 6 hours it’s more like 5/ 51/2 hours. But we got to do something’s that we didn’t get to do on our last visit.

Got picked up a few minutes after 7:30am from the hotel. Paid an extra $40 for roundtrip first class seats. Upstairs first row. Best view going and coming. I've made multiple trips to the keys, driving myself, but this was the first time I was able to relax and pay attention to the views. I'd recommend it highly to anyone wanting to go to key west for the day.
