Excellent tour - Our guide was really good. He was very knowledgeable about the darker history of Key West. He really knows his stuff. He told us a lot of very interesting stories. He didn’t rush through anything and answered our questions. My wife and I would definitely recommend this walking tour.

Fantastic way to spend an evening - Sonya was great - a really gifted story teller who was born and raised on the island. The pace of the tour was perfect, and it focused on a few really detailed stories rather than the more typical “people hear noises here” ghost tour fare (although she did mention things like this as we walked). Honestly the best ghost tour I’ve been on.

We were sick - I'm sorry but you won't stop texting me or emailing me until I fill out the thing we didn't get to go on the trip because we were sick at the time she came but she gave us a very nice story and I appreciated it and that's it

Great Tour - Excellent tour with Braylynn! She is a gifted storyteller and did an impressive job handling a large group. I appreciated that this tour was a little more flexible than some others I’ve been on.

Haunting stories - We enjoyed our tour of the Dark Side of Key West. Our guide told haunting stories of the area around Duvall street and Sloppy Joe. Ideal for hearing the dark history. The tour was after 9PM and it did get noisy. We couldn’t hear some of the story but guide kept going. We wish he would have checked and repeated, so we could keep track of the story. Some stories seemed surreal, but I checked and they are true.

The haunted tour guide - The tour guide cursed it seemed like every other sentence. What was supposed to be 1.5 hours took 2 hours. She talked about playing video games and getting high at home while playing video games. Her girlfriend showed up on the tour like 3 different times. What we thought as an adult tour, was our guides version to continue to curse as much as she could. Very unprofessional and degrading.
