ghost tour
 
Can I get any advice on the ghost tour in Key West??? Is it worth the $$ or is it pretty hoaky??

How about La Te Da and the drag show. I understand its really hilarious?!? We are four straight couples from Indiana (you figure it out). Would we get a laugh or should we stay clear???

I haven't done either, but have heard from locals and visitors that both are great fun! We've seen some of the female impersonators from La Te Da in another stage performance and thought they were wonderful. .

I went to a Key West drag show as part of a group of three straight couples from the midwest. It was a riot for a while, but after an hour the same four impersonators were doing the same thing in different costumes. And we were sitting in the front row. I think the turning point was when a performer kept approaching our (male) friend and touching his legs. The particular venue wasn't our first choice, though I don't recall where we'd initially planned to go. Definitely worth seeing once, though I'd suggest getting a spot in the back in case you want to sneak out ;-)

Hi, we live in Miami Beach but we drive down to Key West at least once a month. We have done the ghost tour before and it was great. I highly recommend it. You have to buy the tickets at the La Concha Hotel - it's on Duval Street. I believe you have to be there about 30 minutes before the tour starts. I think the tour lasts about 1 hour and a half. You will thoroughly enjoy it. Have fun in Key West. You should def. try Alonzo's Oyster Bar for a casual lunch. They have a great lobster sandwich.

I loved the ghost tour so much! I really wish they would sell T-shirts or something like that. I was kind of scared and creeped out by the tour but that is why I went on it! I really loved just about everything about Key West.
