Suitable for travelers in average physical condition; involves light walking and standing during museum visits and beach time.
A full-day private tour that takes you from Miami across the Overseas Highway to Key West with a French-speaking guide. Small groups (max four) mean more time to explore Hemingway’s house, Duval Street, beaches, and museums without the rush of a bus tour.
The car eases onto the Overseas Highway and the Atlantic throws back a new shade of blue at every bridge. In a climate-controlled vehicle with room for four, your driver-guide folds the map into stories: the railway that became a highway, Cuban fishermen who shaped the island’s cuisine, and a century of castaway tales that still drift in the salt air.

Morning departure keeps heavy traffic at bay and gives you cooler hours on the island before midday heat.
Key West’s reefs are fragile—use reef-safe SPF and reapply after swimming.
Expect cobblestone streets and boardwalks; lightweight walking shoes handle both sand and pavement.
Some museum gift shops and street vendors prefer cash for quick purchases or tips.
Key West grew as a maritime hub—wrecking, sponging and wreck salvaging made it wealthy in the 19th century; Hemingway lived here from 1931–1940.
The Florida Keys depend on vulnerable coral reefs and mangroves; choose reef-safe products and follow local guidelines for beach and water use to minimize impact.
Protect skin and marine life—essential for swimming and beach stops.
