Things to do in Florida Keys, Florida Keys: The Best Food Tours

June 26, 2021 Agatha Simes

Stretching 126 miles south toward Cuba, the stunning Keys are a perfect escape. Highlights along the way include Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon, Big Pine Key and the irrepressible Key West. Get up close with an amazing array of fish while snorkeling, diving or fishing in the warm turquoise waters. Creeks, coral and costumed spectacles are other lures along the way. Highway 1 is a spectacular ribbon tying together the islands and atolls of this paradise between the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic.

Beginning with our introduction to Cuban food at El Siboney, a cool tropical drink at the Rum Bar and ending with Cuban Coffee at the Cuban Coffee Queen Roasters the tour was thoroughly enjoyable. Our guide, Meredith, did a wonderful job at each food/beverage stop as well as some stops in between, giving us explanations of the history and cultural events that made Key West what it is today. From the Cigar factory that is now home to the Health Department to the reason there are free range chickens all over town, we learned a lot more about the town than we expected on a food tour. It was well worth it.
