At VHKW, our staff appreciate that your vacation time is precious. We are committed to helping you minimize the time you spend planning your trip, so you can maximize your time having fun! But, we also want to give our guests something more. We believe that one of the best ways to give you more, is to share our unique local knowledge based on decades of living here. To that end, VHKW is delighted to present you with thoughtfully planned 3 - 7 day Custom Key West Itineraries, created by our local professional staff, many who were raised on the island.
Our Key West Itineraries are crafted as flexible schedules, so that you can do as much or as little as you’d like. We invite you to use and adapt them as they suit your interests and needs. Follow them exactly, select or combine activities, or just find ideas of what you might do next. Itineraries are organized according to a variety of themes and demographics, so that you can easily discover what you want to do. Whether you are traveling with a family group, are a romantic couple, a group of friends on a reunion, or traveling alone; whether you are celebrating a holiday or special event, planning a beach vacation, or looking for things to do in Key West on a rainy day, let our local knowledge be your key to making vacation memories that will last a lifetime.
Whether this is your first trip to Key West or you’re a regular visitor, chances are you’re looking for at least one ultimate vacation experience. With hundreds of available excursions, on both land and sea, it can be overwhelming to sort through blogs, guidebooks and websites to decide with confidence what to do. We believe the key to having that next great “wow” experience, is by taking an excursion with a local Key West resident as your guide.
As locals ourselves, VHKW staff work together with select local island businesses who offer specialized Key West Experiences. We hand-pick the experiences we promote, take the excursions ourselves, and select activities that we believe offer an authentic local experience. Contact us directly for more information and to make a reservation.

Key West beaches provide a wonderful opportunity to experience first-hand Caribbean style coral reef beaches. This is because Key West and the Florida Keys are flat coral islands, the top remnants of former coral reefs. Key West beaches are similar to The Bahamas, with white sand, coral rocks, and shallow turquoise water with tropical fish right off shore. Think Caribbean Beach Vacation. Our Ultimate Key West Beach Guide will help you to plan your beach days.
