Trusted Tours and Attractions: Key West

One of the places that I would like to visit is Key West, Florida. My older Brother went on a road trip down to Florida twenty years ago. Judging from the pictures that he took, a good time was had by all.

Trusted Tours and Attractions are a great resource for vacation planning and booking. They have lots of special guided tours available, but we are more of the self guided kind of people. If you want to find out what the site has to offer in the way of discounted tours, check out the newsletter. We would definitely go to the Aquarium in Key West. This aquarium was built in the 30's. Today it is carrying out important turtle conservation efforts. The tourist trade on the island of key West actually had a sad beginning, the city handed over control to the federal government due to complete financial collapse during the depression. Today the place is very much recovered.

It is the southernmost city in the entire country. this makes it the perfect winter destination whether you are going for the sun, for the natural beauty, for the history. Oh, I almost forgot the nightlife. They know how to PARTY in Florida.

Key West is closer to Havana than it is to Miami. Prior to 1959 there were regular ferry crossings to Havana. Wouldn't it be an even more amazing and rich city if one day political changes brought an end to the embargo and lead to normalized relations between these neighboring cities?
