Did this trolley as it had a very convenient stop at our hotel (Casa Marina). Here’s the good, bad, and tips as we see them…
1. It’s good for first timers to get some key facts about the City. Definitely not needed for two days.
2. You don’t really need transportation to get around the Old Town area of Key West, so the “Hop On Hop Off” is of no use. The tourist area (Duval Street, etc) is very walkable. In fact, it’s more enjoyable to walk than ride.
3. The trolley trip is about twice as long as it needs to be. The time spent in the Old Town area is quite informative. However, stops 6 through 8 seem like a waste of time (except to pick up guests in the hotels at those stops).
4. It gets crowded at peak times. Sometimes folks were stuck waiting for the next trolley, especially those with large groups.
5. If you’re going to do it, book online for discounts.
