Excellent affordable way to get to Key West

5.00We used this as a means to book a one-way trip from Miami to Key West which was the next leg of our Florida visit. The pick up was bang on time and the bus was comfortable. They were happy to transport our 2 x cases on the bus. Stopped for breakfast at Key Largo so good opportunity to stretch legs. Shame it rained so much part of the way down so spoiled some of the views out the window, but we still enjoyed the trip and would 100% recommend

The journey itself was comfortable on a luxury air-conditioned coach, which brought us right into the heart of Key West. A smooth, enjoyable, and hassle-free way to explore such a beautiful destination—highly recommended!

5.00This was a long day but the beauty of the long bus trip was an important piece of the Journey. The tour guide was phenomenal and a great communicator, the bus driver was safe and made the trip comfortable. Key West was nice and another check ✅ was accomplished on my bucket 🪣 list. From scheduling, confirmation of pick up time, the fantastic tour guide and the safe driver completed an amazing experience. I told my travel agent I booked a trip with Viator she told me I would not be disappointed and It was a nice experience. Thank you all so much! I am terrible with remembering names but the Tour Guide was instrumental in the journey and he gave us the name of a Cuban restaurant and it was a great lunch and nice establishment.

5.00I was picked up outside of the 1hotel. I was able to stop inside the lobby and grab a coffee before heading out to the pickup. You will see a man with a clip board and he will take your name and take you over to the shuttle. The drive there was super smooth. We had one break for bathroom and food. The restaurants were a bit slow serving everyone, but the buses won't leave without you! We were dropped off right in a central location to everything. Our guide made sure that everyone made their excursions on time. -- I did snorkeling and had an incredible experience with the vendor they use. Would definitely go again.
