Key West by bus - Too long on the bus at 30 - 45 mph. However, our director (Marlene) and driver (Alton) were the best. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Assured our safety. The ac on the bus was not functioning properly (ok with us) so they arranged another bus to swap out. As most trips like this there were millennials and foreigners who were as rude as they come. Or director and driver made up with caring for us.

Key West Adventure - Beautiful day, traffic was unexpected but still got our 6 hours. Great job by our driver and guide. Sorry for the late night. You can’t control the traffic. Thank you, had great day.

The trip across the... - The trip across the islands, 7 mile bridge, the beautiful scenery. Key West was fun! We joined the ‘Hop on hop off’ trolley to see the entire island. I was disappointed that we couldn’t hear the guides comments, even after telling him 3 times that he needed to speak up or turn up the mic volume.

Not happy - Our Ft Lauderdale bus was cancelled & was forced to join a Miami bus. With 50+ passengers we were drop-off last ending trip after 11:00 pm ( remember tour meeting began at 6:15am)…… Key West tour is worth doing at least once

Disappointing - Getting picked up was a stressful experience because of no parking. My neck hurts from the extreme acceleration from the bus driver and breaking. The bus was extremely cold that I could not stop from shaking. Drop off was an extreme mess. The tour guide got off and made a personal errand on our time. All we wanted to do was get home. When we were leaving key west there was still 3 minutes to leave and people had to bang on the side of the bus to have him let them on when they were still on time!!! I do not recommend!!

This tour will leave you stranded - this was a nightmare and I'll never use that carrier ever again. Everything was great for pick-up and the day in Key West was great, but there was a wildfire that closed down the freeway and we were stuck on the bus for 10 hours. The worst part is by the time we got back to Miami, a few of us were told that the driver was too tired to drive us back to Ft. Lauderdale, that we'd have to exit the bus and take a Lyft back to our point of origin in Ft. Lauderdale. I've been talking to them for weeks now to obtain a refund, but they are refusing by saying its not their fault, but they made the situation 50 times worse by not even taking us home. I've given them every chance to make it right, so will never be booking with Gray Line Miami ever again. Horrible treatment of stranded customers

Bad experience - The driver didn’t wait and we lost our tour . We were in the hotel parking lot. We asked for an alternative pick up or options and driver say contact you agency even when we said we said we will there. Called him and text him not answer very rude
