Travel out of Miami to the breathtaking city of Key West on the southern tip of the Florida Keys. Drive by the verdant expanse of the Everglades, along the turquoise water of the Florida Strait, and finally into the tropical oasis of Key West. Enjoy free time to shop, snorkel, or dine on Caribbean-inspired cuisine.

Sit back and enjoy the view as your guide drives you from Miami through some of the most jaw-dropping scenery in the world. Gaze out upon stretches of lush palm trees, the sparkling waters of Biscayne Bay, and luxury yachts docked in the harbours.

After driving over roughly 40 tiny islands, you reach Key West, a Caribbean paradise located just 90 miles (145 km) north of Cuba. Upon arrival, the afternoon is yours to do with as you please. Enjoy shopping along famous Duval Street, hop a trolley for a ride down lanes lined with conch-style homes, or visit the former residence of Ernest Hemingway.

If adventure is what you're after, there's plenty of that too. Rent a kayak, go snorkelling, join a dolphin-watching cruise, or go for a hike to the Civil War remains at Fort Taylor State Park. Before heading back to Miami, don't forget to try some of the area's renowned cuisine. Visit any number of quaint cafes or bars for Caribbean fare like juicy pulled pork, crunchy conch fritters, and tangy Key lime pie.
