Nothing seems to have a set price with this tour! Firstly it's advertised at $79 per person but we managed to get it for $45 each through an independent salesman. Then we had to pay $25 each to the independent salesman and $20 to Xcursions. So it only costs $20 and the rest is commission! So they picked us up 15-20 minutes early! Luckily we were ready enough to go as they don't like to wait.No food or drink allowed, unless you buy it from a Burger King Along the way that clearly has a deal going with the driver.The driver was trying to sell everybody tours the whole way down to the keys, he claimed a few victims but seemed to be overselling, so we waited until we arrived and phoned the tours our self, turns out we went parasailing for $10 less per person then his "special discount price that only has a few spaces left today!!". It was a bit obvious what was going on when we realised the driver was wearing a shirt advertising the watersport company he has a deal with. Also the trolley tickets are cheaper to get yourself in town then his "special discount price". I suggest shopping around both for the bus and any tours!

Vacations waking up at 6:00AM is not good - unless it's for Key West! We had a great ride to Key West, with information about the keys along the ride. Even if the ride seems long, it's totally worth it! It's BEAUTIFUL!!You arrive in Key West and have approximately 5 hours on your own. Just the right amount of time to visit the small Island. We went to see the Southernmost Point of the US, had a drink at Sloppy Joe's, eat a Key Lime pie, went to Ernest Hemingway's House, JUST PERFECT!I am really happy that we went to Key West. It's totally worth it!
Even tought the ride is about 5 hrs, the view is just amazing. Can't wait to go again !!!!
Unfortunately the customer was given the wrong pick up time by the internet company were they bought the tour (they did not contact us at any time to confirm the time wich from 4441 Collins Av. Is between 6:35 nd 6:45 AM), the hotel pick up is a complementary scheduled service that we offer to our guests going on the Key West trip, our bus will leave Miami between 7:45 and 8:00AM we do pick up guests in different buses to get to the last pick up point in south beach or downtown Miami were they will get transfered to the traveling bus, guests that do not wish to wait for all pick ups are asked to meet our bus at 7:30AM at Bayside Marketplace in Downtown Miami wich it will be our last stop. There are signs that there is NO Food, Drinks or Smoking on board of our vehicles the only thing we allow is bottled water.If customer does not pay attention to the sign located on the door in all our vehicles that clearly states NO FOOD,DRINKS & SMOKING, the driver will tell them again before they bourd so they can dispose of their not allowed things.The customer need to be ready to get picked up when bus arrives and we do not under any circumstances have to wait for customers like this one to just finish his coffe while there is more passenger on board and other ones waiting to get picked up.
I was told I would get to key west around 10:30am. I woke up at 6am to be ready by 7am. When we got on the bus the driver told us he was gonna make a stop to change the busses ( waste of time ) after we changed busses on our way to key west in the middle of road the driver stops saying something wrong with the new bus once again that we was gonna wait for a new one no more then 30 minutes, of course everyone was upset. The bus didn't get to us until 1 hour and a half later. The driver was not helpful at all whenever we asked for info he would walk away. When the bus arrived we didn't even get a sorry from the boss. The new bus had a horrible smell!!!! And the worst of everything is when we got there late and didn't enjoy the sun. We asked for a trip back the next day to make up the time and they wanted to charge us even more then what we paid. NEVER AGAIN IN MY LIFE.
I and my family went on this tour and really enjoyed Key West, we had about six hours on the island and its a most see island when traveling to Miami, bus Driver was very helpfull, we got picked up from our hotel in Miami Beach, he took the time to explain everything there is to do and see in Key West. The bus was very nice, clean and it seem like new to me.Bottom line Take this tour for the day and if you can spend a night or two in Key West.***** 5 Stars
It was a good trip with everything as described, the on-site Key West day trips cost much more. The bus was modern with air con, there was a stop on the way back and there was enough time at the destination :-)
Great tour, prices online are very competitive, buses were very nice, clean, and the driver was very friendly, about Key West the only word to describe it is AMAZING.Thanks Guys will go again!
