We had an amazing experience with our tour guide Kim. She was lovely, enthusiastic and you can tell she loves what she is doing.
Yvonne was amazing! The Tour was so great, and all the Key Lime Pies were delicious. Highly recommend!
I’ve travelled a lot, and done many tours in my life, and we did the KeyLime Pie tour because my friends wanted to. Having a small group was nice. But, Yvonne made the tour so much fun—even in 90+ degree heat. We learned about Key West history, places to eat, and things to do. Even though it’s not normally my thing, we plan to take her evening ghost tour—just because she is so fun! Oh, and the Key Lime pie was great.
It’s a delicious and educational tour made even better by our guide Yvonne who was knowledgeable, energetic, funny and caring. She was the greatest! It totally exceeded my expectations in every way.
Just did the Tart Tales tour yesterday with Yvonne. She was a fantastic tour guide, very knowledgeable and personable. Lots of fun! Really enjoyed this tour, and the key lime pies were delicious!
We learned so much! The press were delicious and i appreciated the authenticity of the experience!
We had a wonderful time on our Key Lime Pie walking tour! Kim was super knowledgeable and fun. We learned a lot of history and facts about Key West while tasting three delicious Key Lime Pies and enjoying a Key Lime Pie cocktail! We had three generations of family on our tour so I can say that it was fun for all ages! Thanks for a great afternoon!

Fun and interesting tour. Yvonne was entertaining and shared history along with the great key lime pie. The people at the places we stopped clearly adored her
This tour was fabulous, full of food and fun. Yvonne was fantastic—So much knowledge and energy! Seriously this is a must do tour!
Come hungry! All of the pies and cocktails were amazing! Kim, our tour guide, was fantastic! I’d definitely do this tour again!
The pies were amazing and our guide made it all worth our time. We learned a lot about making pies and Key West.
This walk was informative, and delicious. There were three very distinct key lime pies we tasted, and the your guide was a lot of fun.
very informative, Kim had a wealth of information beyond the script, great background information and addition facts! key lime serving were all wonderful! well paced and great section of town.
The tour was fun and informative, not too long in the hot weather. We tasted 3 different pies and 1 pie like cocktail.
Yvonne was great! We loved hearing about the history of Key West and of key lime pie and the samplings were spaced out perfectly. Would have loved to get a tasting with a meringue topping though! Kids (14, 12, 9) all enjoyed it.
Kim was very knowledgeable. I'm a local and surprisingly learned a lot. I say that because my bf is a tour guide and I know a ton about our island. Kim was great. I loved the places we visited and the key lime pie tastings were fantastic. Im excited to compare these tastings with others on the island. YES to this tour.
Very lovely experience! The tastings were great, the history was interesting and the walk easy. Lovely excursion without committing a huge chunk of time. Thank you to our guide, Kim!
Not a long walk. A lot of fun history and good pie (and a little rum). Our tour guide was great, very knowledgeable and friendly.!
We had a fantastic experience. Yvonne is knowledgeable about the seaport and the history of the Key West,a great story teller and a pleasure to be around. We also witnessed an unexpected Hurricane at a biker bar :-) Great day, highly recommend!
Yvonne was lovely! She was bubbly, chatty, informative and genuinely such a lovely person. We had a fun and interesting tour full of history, funny stories and of course... Pie! 3 different stops to try different styles of in-house variations carefully picked by Yvonne/her team. We had a very windy day and she was always conscious of not stopping somewhere too windy/cold. She gave us pointers of places to visit on the rest of our trip as well to explore on Key West itself. Thank you Yvonne for making my Lungiversary special and being part of my special day!!
Yvonne is an absolute delight—captivating, high-energy, and bursting with fascinating Key lime history! From the very first stop, she brings Key West to life with stories, flavor, and fun. This afternoon walking tour hits all the right spots, blending local legends, iconic sights, and plenty of personality. If you’re looking for the perfect way to experience Key West—with just the right mix of history, humor, and heart—Yvonne is your guide!
Yvonne had a great personality and was very knowledgeable about Key West history, especially related to Key Lime Pie history. Fun and tasty tour, even if you have already visited Key West multiple times!
This walking tour was the perfect slice of Key West—sweet, relaxed, and full of local flavor. From the very first stop, it was clear this wasn’t just about eating key lime pie (though wow, did we eat some excellent pie), but about understanding the history, rivalries, and passion behind it. Kim was knowledgeable, funny, and clearly loved Key West and its food scene. We visited several spots each with a distinct take on key lime pie—from classic and tart to creamy and frozen. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen, and the pacing of the walk was easy and enjoyable. Between bites, we learned about the origins of key lime pie and how this humble dessert became such a defining symbol of the Keys. It felt like a delicious mix of food tour, history lesson, and friendly stroll. If you’re visiting Key West and want an experience that’s uniquely local, not overly touristy, and genuinely fun, this tour is an absolute must. Come hungry and be prepared to leave with a strong opinion about what makes the best key lime pie!
One of my and my wife's personal highlights of our trip to Key West. Our guide, Kim, took us along the waterfront for key lime pie samples and lots of great information on local history and culture, especially on the influence of the shipping and sponging industries. Kim was super friendly and could not have had better visual aids and answered our many questions. This was a great introduction of the varieties of key lime pie that exist in Key West, and we could not have had a better and more friendly guide. Highly recommended.
This was an amazing tour and a delicious way to experience Key West! Yvonne was fabulous!! Highly recommend to everyone.
This was a fabulous tour! We tasted 3 different types of key lime pie and 2 key lime cocktails. Everything was delicious. Our tour guide, Yvonne, was amazing. Highly recommend this tour!!!
VIP treatment!!! Kim was fabulous! We had the best time! We love you Kim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We loved this tour. Kim is a very knowledgeable guide. We learned so much about the historic seaport of Key West. We had great fun. It was fun to learn about sponges and turtle as well as taste a variety of Key Lime Pie recipes. I would do this tour with Kim again.
This is a unique and fun way to see Key West! Kim is amazing! She is fun, quirky, and knowledgeable. And you can't beat the location: the Historic Seaport!
This was a great way to spend a couple of hours in Key West! Kim was our tour guide and she was so knowledgeable. We tried three different key lime pies at three different places. I didn't know there were so many varieties, and it was hard to pick the "best" one because they were all good. We ended our tour at a local bar that had delicious key lime martinis! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Key West!
Fabulous! You’ll love it. It’s so much more than pies. Kim is very knowledgeable about Key West. You’ll learn things that only a true local can pass along. Well worth the time. The pies are good too! Great way to find your way around too. You won’t be disappointed.
Yvonne was lovely and gave us lots of information about the local area. Then she took us for 3 different Key Lime Pie experiences and it was good to have a variety to taste. Wasn't too filling which was good but still adequate portions. Finished off with a Key Lime drink which was also very nice. Very enjoyable if you love Key Lime Pie!
It’s a great tour with history and fun key lime trivia! Great tasting sizes and information about other places to try.
We had a great time, our tour guide was loaded with information on everything, not just key lime but the whole island. Couldn’t have asked for a better start to our day! Thank you Yvone!
Kim was a good tour guide. It was great learning the history of the Key Lime Pie and of the Key West area but we felt that the tour dragged a little bit towards the end. Overall, I recommend it!
Tour guide was early and greeted us as we were confused about the meeting point. She gave us some historical info. about Key West. She also demonstrated the differences between key limes and regular limes. We had 4 stops and rated 3 generous key lime pie samples. Last but not least, we visited the Legal Rum Distillery and sampled a key lime cocktail. Great Tour with an Awesome Guide!
Amazing experience. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. She took up to every pie staple in the keys and talked about the areas rich history
Kim, please forgive our late review, but Nicci, Joyce, and I were really swamped when we got home, LOL. All I can say is that our tour was absolutely fantastic, a pure pleasure from start to finish. While our experience may have been a little unusual given that another couple cancelled, I doubt it, since Kim's knowledge, charisma, and friendliness with everyone would shine through even with a group of one hundred! Her bringing us to personally-meaningful spots like Jimmy Buffett's studios just made it that much more special. I'll put it to you like this: my wife was not a fan of key lime pie before we went, but having three of the best to sample made her a true believer, :D! Especially if you're on a cruise like we were and have only a few hours to spend in Key West, you absolutely can't go wrong with booking Tart Tales! 100% recommended! Best regards, Kim, from Patrick from New Jersey.
Yvonne was so knowledgeable about the history behind the key lime pie, in which I didn't even know there was so much specific history behind it. She also knew about how the different restaurants around Key west got their start in making their own version of the Key Lime pie and is able to let us try them to find the differences between them, without exposing their secrets. I will never forget about the pies, (and also drinks) I had on the tour and it is something that will make me go back to key west. She also threw herself into traffic for us :)
This was a excellent tour and learned a lot about the history key west and the key lime pie our tour guide is very knowledgeable and friendly would say this is a must do tour
Kim was our tour guide! She was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us a great tour! Key Lime pie was delicious and the Key Colada was wonderful!
Yvonne gave us a lovely tour of the history of the Seaport area, the first Key Lime “pie” and 3 excellent Key Lime pies to try at each restaurant with a history of the restaurant and their versions. We finished at a rum distillery with a tasty Key Lime Colada. The tour is about 1.5 hours and an easy and casual pace. It’s a tasty way to explore part of Key West!
This was so fun! Kim is incredibly knowledgeable and was an all around great guide. 10/10 would recommend!
Wonderful tour. Very informative and food is delicious. Organized well and would highly recommend this food tour.
Kim, the tour guide, was both informative and entertaining. We’d been on several walking tours around Key West previously, but even so we learned a lot that we hadn’t previously known. And, of course, the pie was delicious! A great tour!
What a fun way to spend the afternoon in Key West! we loved every pie and drink!!! Highly recommended. Kim was great guide and we learned a lot about Key West along the way.
Yvonne was excellent! We enjoyed our walking tour and learning more about the history of key lime pie. Had a blast! Recommend going in the tour to anyone visiting Key West
We had a lovely walking tour with Kim. We enjoyed all of the key lime pies and also the rich information she shared with us on the history of the areas in which we walked. We highly recommend this tour!
