Teen cousin’s adventure - We did the VIP extended tour with 6 teens. The kids really enjoyed (thanks to our GREAT guide) learning fun facts about the history of the fort, hearing creepy story’s about Key West legends and (OFCOURSE) meeting Robert! Then the kids took off for their solo extended spirit hunting adventure with all the cool ghost hunting paraphernalia. That’s when things got REAL SPOOKY!

EXCELLENT Teen cousin outing! - Our tour guide was amazing! He shared lots of info, not only about Robert, but also the history of the fort and other creepy stories about Key West legends. We had 6 teens and did the extended VIP tour. The kids LOVED having the extra time communicating with the spirits all around the fort.

Great Experience - It was really neat to go through the Fort at night and hear the history of the place and the doll. Ghost communication equipment was also interesting to use. Our group had varying levels of responses with the equipment, but we all had a great time.

This was fun!! - It was cool to hear all the history of the fort and Robert the Doll. Doing the VIP and walking around the fort with the family was fun. I am sure even if you are a not a believer it is still fun if your family is enjoying it. The gentlemen giving the tour was also great. I would suggest this to anyone in Key West.

Haunted Fun - It was interesting. The historic information was quite good. Seeing Robert in real life as opposed to T.V. was very different. We opted for the VIP with ghost hunting. We HAD hoped to pick up some K2 readings or voices on the spirit boxes, but alas they were hiding that night. Overall, a fun and informative time.

History Meets Horror in this Tantalizing Tour! - This tour was excellent and not only gave history of the 1760’s Fort, but also many great true stories and photos of some of Key West’s most haunted places and items! Our tour guide did an excellent job and made our experience even better. Thank you for such a great time!

Carnival act - We went to this tour because of the great reviews. I can only attribute the good reviews to gullible people thinking they will be cursed if they speak the truth about the tour from "Robert the Doll" per what they say during the tour. The whole experience was ridiculous & felt like a carnival act. The minute I walked out the door I felt like I was just ripped off. It was hokey parlor tricks & scare tactics. The only good thing was the guide & the laughs about it after the fact.
