The Hemingway Experience by Key West Food Tours

Преглед

The Hemingway Experience celebrates Key West’s most infamous author, Ernest “Papa” Hemingway, with a historical walking adventure retracing his steps on a "Bucket List" tour of Old Town. Our 4-hour guided experience stops at (6) locations, helping tell Hemingway’s story in Key West & Cuba.

Each ticket includes guided entrance into his famed Key West home. Then eat, drink, and explore the island on foot through “Papa’s eyes”, feasting on Cuban cuisine (& 3 boozy beverages) while your knowledgeable local guide impresses with interesting stories & amazing fun facts.

The adventure takes you behind the scenes of a 3rd generation family run cigar rolling factory, and into the newly remodeled Social Club at Hemingway Rum Co. for his favorite drink made with his family company’s premium rum. Then finish with a slice of our famous key lime pie!

After the tour, you’ll receive a collection of exclusive recipes, recommendations on restaurants, attractions, entertainment, and cultural offerings.

We had high hopes for this tour it was very disappointing. Positives: our guide was personable and knowledgeable. He did the best he could within the parameters he had to work with. The Cuban food and Key Lime pie were great Negatives: This is touted as “Hemingway Experience” the only authentic experience is the museum. Once we entered the grounds to the museum we the were handed off to a tour guide of the museum. (This was a wonderful tour highly recommend) Our time in the Hemingway museum was limited to about 50 minutes due to time restraints by our Viator tour. We were unable walk around the grounds or view Hemingway's studio (which is a historical gem) because it would take too long. (We went back on our own to spend the time it deserves). The next 3 ”experiences” were supposed to provide a glimpse of Hemingway’s time in Cuba. That’s a big stretch of the imagination. The Cuban restaurant was very good and filling. Next stop First Flight where we were served tacos with our beverage. Few in our group could eat them after just finishing an ample lunch! The cigar factory was disappointing. We stood around 2 people rolling cigars. Our guide explained what they were doing however there was no interaction between the artisans and our group. It was very disappointing we didn’t hear from them personally to tell us about their work and stories of this family business. Sloppy Joe’s was a walk-by on the way to Key Lime Pie. The distillery was not prepared for us. They had another group scheduled to arrive and didn’t know what to do with us. We did not have a tour of the distillery and no one from the establishment spoke with us. Our guide pulled some tables and chairs together for us got our drinks and gave us some history and background. Bottom line you could do this tour on your own for far less money and the receive more information from the establishment’s tour guides.

Hi Joan, I'd like to start by saying thank you for joining us on our newest Hemingway experience, and that we're sorry that our tour didn't live up to your expectations. We're still (and as a company based around customer experience will likely ALWAYS be) honing in on the tour to make it the best and most memorable version of itself. Rose is one of our most-beloved guides, and we're happy that you enjoyed his company & our food tastings. We're sorry that you were too full to fully enjoy the fish taco--but in our experience, TOO MUCH food is a MUCH better complaint than too little food. In our beta stage, we had feedback that there wasn't enough food, so we almost doubled the cuban roast pork tasting (which you obviously loved and filled up on). Timing with any tour is always tricky--you felt you were unable to visit the Hemingway Home long enough, and others are ready to leave after 30 minutes. We felt 50 mins appropriate, as the offiical guided tour averages 20 minutes. This allows our groups time to explore the grounds on their own before its time to leave. As far as our partners go, it can be occasionally hard when a Rodriguez family member isn't in the shop for some reason, (that day, the owner was home with his sick daughter) as the other employees are cuban Spanish speakers and cannot host a group. However, that's why all of our guides are trained to showcase the creation process & answer all your questions--but not the engaging experience you expected or that our guests typically receive...It's the forever pro and con of small family-owned operations. Authentic nonetheless! Though we only walk thru Captain Tony's & Sloppy Joes, our guides share the Hemingway stories throughout the entire tour and relate everything, even the food dishes selected, to Hemingway's story---leading up the finale of his favorite drink served at his family-named distillery. I'm glad to hear that you said that in the absence of vendor personnel, that Rose was able to share with you the background history and details surrounding your stops. One thing to note, this tour is not advertised to include an official distillery tour, although we do get to peek inside! That said, we strive for excellence in every adventure we deliver and would love to take you out complimentary on one of signature food tours to make it up to you. Please reach out to me directly - [email protected]

In March, we visited Key West to visit my son and we thoroughly enjoyed the Hemingway Experience. It was a nice mix of history and food - what's not to love?! Rose was a fantastic guide who really knows the history and the vibe of the area.
