Get to know the island city of Key West and its top attractions on this entertaining and educational Conch Train Tour.

The Conch Tour Train is a tribute to industrialist Henry Flagler’s 'railway over the sea,' an engineering miracle when he brought the railroad to Key West in 1912. This tour has treated visitors to a detailed look at the island city’s most historic and interesting attractions for more than 50 years.

The train departs daily from the Front Street Depot and ends at popular Mallory Square, where everyone comes to hang out, eat and shop. Throughout the tour, see the area’s top attractions and learn about its many residents, past and present. See some of the places Ernest Hemingway used to hang out and find out why Harry Truman spent so much time on the island. Listen to stories of pirates, Native Americans, and wreckers and find out how they gave Key West its reputation.

A sightseeing tour of Key West has never been easier—or more fun—than this Conch Tour Train view of the island. Experience Key West in this unique way.

Pretty good to get acquainted with what’s in the city. But somewhat hard to hear guide at times due to city noise & open train cabs. Also only 4 stops, so quite a bit of walking required to get to shops or activities. Too much for my mother, who is 78. Wondering if other “Old Trolley” service might have worked better. More stops maybe? Everybody very nice though.

Buy your tickets Thur the train website

My friend and I purchased the two day train ride. The train was fantastic and the conductors were excellent and extremely knowledgeable and very entertaining. My only suggestion is to not go through Viator as they ripped us off. We paid double the price. If you go directly to the train website they only charge $19.95 for the 2nd day. As it was we were there during Fantasy Fest and because of the festivities they cut their days short due to the traffic on the road. So we only got the train for about 2 and a half hours instead of the normal 6 and a quarter hours.
