“WOW! My husband and I visited Key West recently as a port of call while we were on a cruise. We have been to Key West before and were looking for something different to do. We decided to hop on the Conch Train. I couldn’t believe how informative the tour was. Peggy Sue was so knowledgeable and made the tour fun as well. After the tour we also visited the Aquarium and the Shipwreck Museum. Both places were so informative and interactive. My husband is still telling all his friends how he picked up a real silver shipwrecked bar valued at over 50 thousand dollars. So if you are looking for something more than bar hopping, then I suggest touring with Historic Tours of America to see the real Key West.”

“My family has been traveling to Key West for the past 13 years… We have a 12-year-old autistic son that loves the trains. About 7 years ago we started letting him ride the train. That first trip on the train was the start of his favorite part of Key West. Our son, Devin looks forward to riding the train three times during each week we are in Key West. When he is not riding the train, we spend time sitting at the train station talking to the staff and ringing the train bell. Devin knows all the sales staff members, the engineers and their assigned train number. The trains and staff are very important to him. I can not put into words how grateful I am for your staff. Every member on your team has taken the time to talk to Devin. Most of the staff know we stay at the Banyan and look for Devin as they drive by with their tours. The overwhelming kindness that Devin receives from your staff is beyond heartwarming. I am writing this to thank all of those very special people who have taken the time to get to know Devin. I would list everyone’s name but I don’t want to forget anyone and Devin is asleep so I cannot ask him. (Trust me – he remembers everyone)… I want you to know how much your kindness, patience and understanding are appreciated. Devin misses all of you and we will see you in April.”

“We visited Key West recently. And we enjoyed the tour very, very much. Wanting to send much thanks to our wonderful driver – Sheila. She was just awesome … and we learned so much about Key West during our time on the train! It was a highlight for us.”

“The Conch Tour Train is the best way to see Key West and Sheila is the BEST guide. She knew everyone and everything and was funny to boot. Even days later we would seek her out if we had a question about Key West. She is a gem and you are very lucky she works for you!”

“It has been nearly a year since my wonderful honeymoon in Key West. Our first day on the island, we decided to take a Conch Tour Train to get a better lay of the land, and become acquainted with everything in Key West. My wife and I both have history degrees, so the train tour was right up our alley. Our tour guide was Frank, and we still think about him, his amazing knowledge, and his positive attitude, nearly a year later. He was a magnificent tour guide, and an asset to your company. We saw him at least 3-4 more times over the week, and each time he remembered us, and chatted with us about Key West history and Key West sightseeing. He is truly an amazing employee, and I can’t wait to come back for another tour.”

“I went to Key West on the Carnival TRIUMPH, and fell in love with the island. The Conch Train and our “engineer”, Eduardo, were the highlight of our entire cruise! You can keep the Bahamas, but give me Key West ANYTIME! I have been a Tour Guide for much of my life, and I can tell you that this is one of the most professional (and FUN!) tours I have ever been on (as a tourist). HEY CONCH TRAIN!!! Hire me and I am THERE! Highly recommend this for anyone going to Key West! You will be glad you did! “

“Our tour guide was Bob and he was the greatest tour guide we could ask for. He was very informative and friendly and made it feel as though you were the only one on the tour. He explained all of the history, facts, and details in an awesome entertaining way. I will highly recommend this tour because of him. He was very personal with each and every one on the tour and did an amazing job. I definitely hope he gets employee of the month because he did a great job! Thanks!”
