Whisky Rick is the BEST walking tour guide!!!

Stephanie_T, Sep 2023

I had THE best time with Whisky Rick! He had so much information to share about Old Town Key West and was so great with my many questions. He also made eating and shopping suggestions that I followed up on. He warned me that I would be overwhelmed with information...and I was...but in a good way! This walking tour is a must for those wanting to learn more about this amazing town. And it is a lot of walking, so make sure you are ready...I was, so I wasn't overexerted. Actually, at the end of the tour, I went back to places he had pointed out in order to spend more time. When I return to Key West, I'm taking this tour again...there's just so much to learn!

Awesome tour with Whiskey Rick! He told us interesting facts about the history of Key West. Rick also shared great stories about the founders and the many interesting characters who have written the story of Key West!

Good intro to Key West

Danny_R, Oct 2021

The walking tour was a good welcome to Key West, especially for those who have never been there before. The tour guide was very personable and offered several suggestions for restaurants and entertainment along Duval St.

Casual tour to discover Key West highlights

Bobbie_Reinecker, Jul 2021

I was specifically wanting to become more familiar with the layout of the town in a short period. Rick did a great job of tailoring the tour to those expectations. I feel like I can now go or direct others to areas that are of specific interest to me. Thanks so much, Rick! I really liked the local perspectives you gave. Prior to the tour Rick contacted me to find out what I wanted to see and I mentioned seeing the fireworks without hanging out on the beach. He gave information that allowed me to watch the fireworks eating a delicious meal knowing I was contributing to scholarships for high school seniors. It was also nice to meet different people who live on the islands. When the walking tour was over I enjoyed a guided tour that Rick gave in the Truman White House. Probably wouldn’t have done that again but was having such a good day walking and enjoying the island. Great way to explore the island from the Atlantic to the Gulf. I will definitely contact Rick before returning to Key West.

Must do

Amy_V, Feb 2021

Walking tour is a must do. It allows you to learn about all the sites first and then you can go back and spend more time in the spots you really liked. Our guide was very knowledgeable and alot of fun. He didn't mind going over the time limit to make sure we saw everything.
