The walking tour of Key West was the highlight of our trip!! Richard was very gracious with his time and gave us a real educational tour of Key West. He packed a ton of information into a short time and passed along suggestions for other sites to visit during our stay. Richard's first hand knowledge and passion for Key West in my opinion is unparalleled! I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Key West!! Thanks again Richard!
