Key West Bike Tours: Guided Rides & GPS E-Bike Tours
Key West is a bike town. The whole island is about four miles end to end, flat as a dock, and the streets that matter — Old Town's lanes of gingerbread houses, the harbor walk, the beaches on the Atlantic side — are exactly the streets a car can't do anything with. Two wheels at ten miles an hour is the correct speed for this place. There are two ways to do it: join a guided group ride with a local leading and talking, or take a GPS-guided e-bike and follow the tour at your own pace with the bike yours until 5 PM. This guide covers both, with real prices and start times.
Guided Ride #1: Guided Bike Tour of Old Town Key West
Guided Bike Tour of Old Town Key West — Key Lime Bike Tours
A guided cruise through Old Town's back lanes with the stories that make the houses make sense. Two-person minimum; riders 8 and up.
10:00 AM start • Guided bike tour • Ages 8+ • 2-person minimum • Key West
$55 per person
Check AvailabilityThe classic version: a guide, a slow cruise through Old Town's back lanes, and the stories that make the houses make sense. It's $55 per person, starts at 10:00 AM, and takes riders as young as 8 — a genuine family option. Note the two-person minimum: this one's built for pairs and groups, not solo riders.
Guided Ride #2: Lloyd's Tropical Bike Tour
Lloyd's Tropical Bike Tour — Lloyd's Tropical Bike Tour
The local-legend guided ride, tilted toward the island's trees, fruit, and backstreet character. Runs on select dates — check the calendar early.
9:30 AM start on select dates • Guided bike tour • 2-rider minimum • Key West
$69 adult • $59 child (12 and under)
Check AvailabilityLloyd's is the local-legend version of the same idea — a 9:30 AM guided ride with a heavy tilt toward the island's trees, fruit, and backstreet character. $69 for adults, $59 for kids 12 and under, two-rider minimum. It runs on select dates rather than daily, so check the calendar early — if your dates line up, this is the ride people come home talking about.
The Self-Guided Option: GPS E-Bike Tours
GPS Guided E-Bike History FunTour — Fun Rentals Key West
A pedal-assist e-bike with a GPS-guided history tour loaded on. Four-hour tier returns by 5 PM; the all-day tier keeps the bike till 5 PM.
9:00 AM start • Self-guided GPS e-bike tour • Up to 4 hours or all day, return by 5 PM • Key West
$49 up to 4 hours • $64.99 all day
Check AvailabilityGPS Guided E-Bike Tour — Fun Rentals - Downtown
The same GPS-guided e-bike format from the downtown location: 4-hour tour or keep the bike all day till 5 PM.
9:00 AM start • Self-guided GPS e-bike tour • Up to 4 hours or all day, return by 5 PM • Key West
$49 4-hour tour • $65.00 all day
Check AvailabilityTwo Fun Rentals locations run the same smart format: a pedal-assist e-bike with a GPS-guided history tour loaded on, starting at 9:00 AM. You follow the route and the narration on your own clock — stop for coffee, linger at the cemetery, skip what bores you. The four-hour version is $49; for $64.99–$65 you keep the bike all day, tour included, and just have it back by 5 PM. The all-day tier is the quiet bargain here: roughly fifteen dollars more turns a morning tour into a full day with wheels in a town where parking is a contact sport. Pedal assist means hills and headwinds don't matter — any-age riders welcome.
Guided or GPS: Which Way to Go?
Want stories told by a person, questions answered, and zero navigation? That's the guided rides — $55 with Key Lime daily-style at 10 AM, or Lloyd's $69/$59 on its select dates. Want the tour plus a free afternoon? The GPS e-bike at $49–$65 is tour and transportation in one booking. Families split the difference by age: the Key Lime ride takes kids 8 and up on their own bikes, while pedal-assist e-bikes suit mixed groups where legs come in different strengths.
Pro Tips for Biking Key West
- Book morning starts and mean it. Every ride here starts 9:00–10:00 AM because that's the cool half of the day. Afternoon pedaling in summer is a different sport.
- Take the all-day e-bike tier if you're even 60% sure. The gap between the 4-hour and all-day price is small, and having wheels beats hunting parking for the rest of the day.
- Bring water and sunscreen anyway. Flat and breezy fools people; four hours in the sun is four hours in the sun.
- Check Lloyd's calendar first. It's the one ride that doesn't run daily — lock it in, then plan the rest around it.
- Ride like a local. Old Town lanes are shared and slow. The speed limit of the whole experience is "look around."
