Tropical Horizons

Match up Miami and Key West and you’re in for a fun time in Florida.

Miami’s South Beach and Art Deco eye candy is just the beginning of this diverse and decadent city. After getting to know your favourite spots, take a memorable trip across the Overseas Highway – a road and bridges linking the Florida Keys. Eventually, you’ll reach Key West at the southernmost point of the USA. This little Key may be small compared to Miami, but it’s bubbling with personality, nightlife, and tropical beauty.

Miami

Feel the sunshine on your skin as you arrive in Miami. Take this city break as you want, whether a shopping break, a beach break, or the chance to explore Miami’s heritage in Little Havana or Ocean Drive. Then, swap the cityscape for tropical shores as you drive south across the Overseas Highway to Key West. Between relaxing on sandy shores, by a pool, or in a decadent luxury spa, take the time to get to know the city. On a four-hour guided tour, you can see the highlights of Miami, from Coconut Grove and Coral Gables to Little Havana and Calle Ocho.

Miami Guided City Tour
Miami

A thriving hub of art, history and culture, Miami also plays home to some of the USA’s most breathtaking beaches, which is where this guided adventure begins. Embrace the enchantments of the Magic City as you saunter its soft white sands barefoot before swapping the rolling ocean waves for a wander around the array of art deco buildings. Observe age-old hotels and establishments from times gone by before reentering the modern era to spectate the stunning skyscrapers that tower the vibrant city streets. You’ll also pay a visit to the lush enclave of Coconut Grove, as well as the city’s luscious green parks, The Kampong and the Barnacle Historic State Park. The next two stops on our itinerary explore Miami’s Spanish speaking community, where you’ll learn all there is to know about the city's Latin artists. The day will draw to a stylish close at Bayside Marketplace, where you’re free to shop til you drop or savour a thirst-quenching sip overlooking beautiful Biscayne Bay.

Days 4-6

Key West

When driving from Miami to Key West, plan for a whole day to cross the sensational Overseas Highway, making plenty of stops to admire the views. Explore Key West's attractions, starting with the Key West Aquarium, the world's first open-air aquarium. Then, step back in time to the 1800s at the Key West Shipwreck Treasure Museum. Visit the Ernest Hemingway House Museum and observe beautiful butterfly species at the Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory.

Key West Old Town Trolley Tour
Florida Keys

The island of Key West is full of fun and exciting things to do and see. Explore Key West in the most authentic way aboard an Old Town Trolley that circles the entire island. From the Southernmost Point to the quaint streets of Old Town, this tour has 12 different stops for you to explore all the major areas and attractions, with unlimited re-boarding along the 90-minute route.

See Key West's first tourist attraction, the Key West Aquarium, which was also the world's first open air aquarium. Moving on to Harry Truman’s Little White House which is the state of Florida’s only presidential suite with a rich history spanning back to 1912. The Oldest House Museum is also nearby; it's one of the many beautifully restored homes that are open to the public in Key West dating back to 1829. Stop four covers the famous Duvel Street which has historic significance with St Paul’s Church and the San Carlos Theater. However, it’s probably most famous for being home to nighttime hotspots like Sloppy Joe’s Bar and Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville. Alight at stop five and see the Ernest Hemingway House Museum where he's rumoured to have written A Farewell to Arms - and don't forget to look for the six- or seven-toed cats! The next few stops provide some contrast; check out the Civil War-era East Martello Fort and Museum and relax on the white sand of Smather’s Beach. Saving the best till last with Stop 10 being at the monument that marks the southernmost point in the US, just 90 miles from Cuba. The tour doesn’t have to end there – you could head back to the Old Town to cool off with a drink and savour Key West with its shops, cafés and galleries. Make sure to stay in Mallory Square for an unmissable sunset.
