Our Story:

Traveling is a passion of the Greater than a Tourist book series creator. Lisa studied abroad in college, and for their honeymoon Lisa and her husband toured Europe. During her travels to Malta, an older man tried to give her some advice based on his own experience living on the island since he was a young boy. She was not sure if she should talk to the stranger but was interested in his advice. When traveling to some places she was wary to talk to locals because she was afraid that they weren’t being genuine. Through her travels, Lisa learned how much locals had to share with tourists. Lisa created the Greater Than a Tourist book series to help connect people with locals. A topic that locals are very passionate about sharing.

Good summary of Key West

I’m planning a trip to Key West and found this summary very helpful. Lots of information about hotels, restaurants and beaches with a nice sprinkling of history and local tips. I would have liked more information about the state and national parks in the keys, but this book is about Key West and not the Keys in general. Good read and a good resource.

Must Buy, if you're heading to Key West!

I really enjoyed listening to this 2-3 times before I went to Key West. Definitely enjoyed some great food as a result!

Memories

Having travelled to Key west from Macon GA on a Harley with my good friend Steven we toured down the FL keys and at sunset drove into Key West, our main destination. The sky was bright pink and I took a photo of palm trees as we hit the edge of town, we stayed in the Duval Inn on Duval St. Key west houses are full of colour, the streets come alive at night. Everything about the place makes you feel good. This book brings back memories but also gives me the tips I needed for places to see when I get back there, very soon I hope.
