  • CT did such an amazing job at detailing the history about and around the whole Pigeon Key story...all of us were hanging on her next words. She was do knowledgeable and answered the many questions that were presented to her throughout the tour. A great ride by boat to and from the island was part of the tour that sounds like may be coming to an end unfortunately as things continue to change and progress with all the changes these days. A great outing for people of all ages!
  • My wife and I live on the Keys. We love the history (Flagler's railroad in particular) and wanted to share it with our granddaughter. We took her on the "train" out to the island. It was a lot of fun. The driver and volunteer historian were great. If you’ve interested in Keys history it's a great couple of hours. Just know that summer is hot so may not be the best time of year. The weather was perfect here in late March for this adventure. Don't forget to tip the help. They work hard for your enjoyment.
