Tour guides are well informed and offer a look back at the life of Ernest Hemingway. Loved all the cats running around and lounging on the furniture!

Tour guide was great!!!

Loved the cats and the history. We had an excellent tour guide named Stan who was very knowledgeable about Key West and the Hemmingway history. Very enjoyable.

Great tour, very interesting to learn about this author. Great old house. The cats were a highlight for us, especially the three toed one. Neat to hear the story about the penny near the pool.

Tour was not too long for my 15 year old to enjoy as well as I did, and the guide did an excellent job. My daughter especially enjoyed all of the cats!
