WHAT YOU’LL SEE & DO

Transport yourself to the 1930's and embark on a journey unlike any other.

This self-guided audio tour is more than just a walk – it's a time machine transporting you to the roaring days of Ernest himself.

Audio Wave

It's as if you're running around with Hemingway himself.

Follow the clink of ice and the echo of laughter to the iconic bars that Hemingway himself frequented. We won't just show you where to go; we'll show you the backstories that have made their way into local lore. Whether it's a crisp, cold martini or a mojito mixed to perfection, sip the spirits that fueled the spirit of one of America's greatest writers.

This is not your typical group tour...you're a loner, like Heminway was.

It's a journey of discovery, a cocktail of culture and charisma. It's where history meets mystery, and every step is a story. So, lace up your walking shoes, charge your headphones, and get ready to toast to the legendary life of Ernest Hemingway. 'Hemingway's Haunts: A Spirited Stroll through Key West' – where every stop is a story, and every drink is a memory. Cheers to adventure!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

No items found.

Are these tours good for kids and families?

Absolutely! Our tours are like family road trips, but without the 'are we there yet?' We keep it fun and engaging for all ages. Just enough history to educate, and plenty of quirky tales to entertain. Think of it as edutainment where you actually enjoy the 'edu' part.

Are these walking tours only or can i ride my bike/golf cart?

Walk, bike, or golf cart – your choice! Our tours are as versatile as your transportation preferences. Just remember, safety first – we don't want you so engrossed in our stories that you forget you're on wheels! Keep it cool, keep it safe, and enjoy the ride, whichever way you roll.

Does this tour require wifi?

Nope, no WiFi needed! Our tours are downloadable. Think of it like preparing for a Netflix binge but for your ears and feet. Download the tour over a connection faster than a Key West sunset, and you're set to explore the island offline. Say goodbye to pesky data charges!

How will I know where to go?

Fear not, intrepid explorer! Our app is like a treasure map, minus the 'X marks the spot'. It'll guide you through the winding streets and hidden alleys with the precision of a GPS-obsessed parrot. Just follow the voice and the handy map – it's like having a personal navigator, minus the backseat driving.

Does each person in my group need their own tour?

Only if they want to hear the tour! It's like headphones at a silent disco – without your own set, you're just watching a bunch of people dance awkwardly in silence. So yes, each person needs their own tour unless you're all about that shared earbud life. Social listening is the new black, after all.

Is this a tour with a tour guide?

Oh, absolutely! That is if you count the sultry voice coming from your device as a 'guide'. Our tours are like having a super knowledgeable local in your pocket, minus the awkwardness of actually stuffing someone in there. No live guides here, just the freedom to explore at your own pace with our expertly crafted audio narratives!

What you'll do

Join me, Captain William Shade, as we tread a path drenched in blood, gold, and treachery.

In these waters, pirates didn't just seek treasure—they demanded it, and their shadows still lurk in every forgotten alley and moonlit dock.

Dare to venture where legends were forged in cutlass and flame, where tales aren't just tales but stark reminders of the savage pursuit of greed and dreams. This isn't your grandmother's stroll down memory lane; it's a raw, unapologetic plunge into the depths of the ambition and desire that has made Key West what it is today.

Steel yourself, for in these echoing footsteps, you're not just retracing history—you are awakening it.
