    Fun & Informative Visit
    The whole experience was just wonderful from the “train” ride out through the volunteer guide that gave us so much history & information. The entire staff was pleasant and invested in the history @ preservation of Pigeon Key. Thank You for a truly wonderful experience.
    Thank you for your review! We are glad you enjoyed the train ride and tour.

    Great tour!
    I live in Key Largo and haven't been to Pigeon Key in quite a few years. We had friends I town and decided to go take a tour and, what a great experience! The train driver, and tour guide were really knowledgeable and friendly with the customers and, I know from working in the tourist industry how hard that can be sometimes. The history that is there and the friendly attitude of the employees make this a must see for people coming through. Go see it! You won't be disappointed!
    We are so happy you visited our little island again!

    Amazing interesting and Fab afternoon
    This was a fantastic afternoon and well worth a visit! We originally opted for a 230pm tour to walk the bridge. However we arrived to the parking lot early and swapped to the 1pm train! Which was easily swapped and not a bother! CT our guide was fab and really knowledgeable and we stayed and fed the sharks! Amazing, interesting A++++++
    Thank you for your review, Angie! We are glad you enjoyed your visit to the island.

    Stop at Pigeon Key and learn some Keys history. Fascinating.
    Always wanted too stop here and visiting with friends who are enjoying first visit to Keys was the perfect opportunity. Everyone so nice. History and the respect everyone has for the Flagler contributions is awe inspiring. CT was a great tour guide and knew her stuff. Wonderful experience.
    We are glad you enjoyed your trip to Pigeon Key!

    A great bit of history
    We have lived in Key West for years but never got around to visiting Pigeon Key. What a mistake! Now it’s on the top of me visitor list. The tour guide (CK?) was not only knowledgeable, she was fun. A terrific storyteller, and the Flagler and 7 Mille Bridge story is a great one. We took the little train, but it’s only 2 miles from the entrance to the island, so an easy walk or bike ride. They don’t have any food, but you can get a cold drink and there are very nice restrooms. We did the 2 hour trip but should really have stayed longer to experience everything. Don’t miss this if you are coming to the Keys.
    Thank you for your review! CT is a fantastic tour guide, and we are glad you enjoyed the island. It is always an option to take the train out and stay longer than the return time, as long as there is room on a later train!

    Very Knowledgeable Tour Guide
    We’ve been passing this place for years, so finally decided to check it out before heading to Key West for the day. The tour was only a couple hours long, and the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the property. It’s definitely worth checking out.
    Thank you for visiting! We are glad you enjoyed the tour and the history of the island.

    Awesome story around this island.
    This is such a hidden gem! (Actually not so hidden.) We saw the island from the 7 mile bridge and were very curious so went and checked it out. What an amazing history lesson and story of Henry Flagler. Our guide, C.T., is an awesome storyteller and made it all come to life. Great employees, fun train and beautiful views to boot! Take a couple hours to check it out.
    Thank you for stopping by!
