I take pictures as a hobby and I booked this tour with the hopes of getting some really good shots of Key West and the surrounding area. I just recently developed the pictures and, sure enough, they came out amazing! Key West is tiny and this 30-minute tour lets you see all of KW and so much more! Check it out if you can!

I only had time for one tour while i was in Key West.I'm really glad this was the one we decided on! It was probably the ideal key west tour since you get to see so much and take some excellent pictures to show my friends back home. I recommend this tour to people who want a quick but complete view of key west and the other keys in the area

I love being in the air! The 30 Minute Key West Coral Reef Aeroplane Tour was a great time! You fly in a small, sturdy and rather fast plane, and the sights of Key West you get to see are unlike any i've ever seen before. Thanks!!! It was great
