Tropical Bike Tour Through Backstreets of Key West

The Original Key West Tropical Bike Tour – Since 1991! It’s tough to slap an itinerary on Key West. The whole point of this two-by-four-mile island, after all, is to kick off your shoes and let it all hang out. But here’s the rub: do Key West wrong and you might not relax. So where is the strange, laid-back island that everyone fell in love with? It’s still there, if you know where to look. It’s found biking through Old Town at dusk, when the porches light up and jasmine fills the air. Done right, Key West is still a place where time stands still.

What You’ll Discover

How long does the Tropical Bike Tour last? “In your mind,” your guide likes to say, “forever.” “If you only take one tour, make it this strange, awesome trip through the back streets of Key West,” says the New York Times. He ducks in and out of private gardens (including his older brother’s, much to his chagrin), hacking at coconuts with his machete, cracking jokes and spreading the local lore he has cultivated in his 35 years on the island. The stop at Nancy Forrester’s Secret Garden, a stunning little rain forest with exotic parrots and an artist gallery, is worth the cost alone. The tour lasts (in real time, anyway) two hours.
