Sunset Pier Pub Crawl

A roughly two-hour haunted pub crawl through Key West's Old Town drinking spots, run by US Ghost Adventures. The listing is new, so no rating or review count is showing yet.

Overview

The crawl gathers at Sunset Pier, 0 Duval Street, where the guide waits in a US Ghost Adventures t-shirt with a lantern in hand. From there the group walks a loop of roughly two hours through Key West's historic district, pausing at bars and haunted landmarks while the guide tells stories drawn from the island's darker past. Drinks are bought along the way rather than included.

The route is not fixed. Possible stops include Ocean Key Resort and its Sunset Pier, the Audubon House and Tropical Gardens, First Flight Island Restaurant and Brewery, which sits on the site of the original Pan American Airways ticket office, and the Curry Mansion Inn. Which stops happen depends on the season and availability, so two nights of this tour can feel quite different.

It suits anyone who wants local history mixed into a night out, and the operator pitches it at private groups, bachelorette parties, birthdays and corporate outings. It runs nightly, year-round, in English, rain or shine. It is a poor fit for anyone who cannot comfortably walk more than a mile.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points will make the night go smoothly, since this is a walking tour with drinks bought on your own tab.

• ID for drinks. Bring a passport or ID card. You must present valid identification to buy alcohol at any stop.
• Footwear and fitness. Wear comfortable shoes. The listing warns that the tour is not recommended for anyone who cannot walk more than a mile, and the route stays on foot the whole way.
• Weather and clothing. Dress for the conditions and expect the tour to run rain or shine. Weather-appropriate clothing is on the operator's bring list.
• Drinks not included. Food and drinks are not part of the ticket. Budget for whatever you order at the bars, plus a tip for the guide if you enjoy the night.
• Video and smoking. Video recording and smoking are both not allowed on the tour. Leave the camera rolling to the bars afterward if you want footage of the night.
• Group feel. The tone is storytelling with a bar-hopping rhythm, and the operator markets it to bachelorette parties and corporate groups as well as casual travellers.

Common issues. The biggest practical limit is the walking: the listing says it is not suitable for people who cannot manage more than a mile on foot, and there is no hotel pickup or any transport of any kind. Drinks and food cost extra, and a guide tip is not included. The route itself is not guaranteed, since exact stops vary by season and availability, so a specific bar you hoped to visit may not appear. Video recording and smoking are prohibited, and the tour runs in all weather.
