I am rating this as a three based only on my lack of interest in historical sites. While I am certain many people find these types of locations to be fascinating, I don't. If you love visiting old forts, marine museums, historical villages, etc. then you would absolutely love this. For me, 3 hours on a boat to get to an island with an historical fort was a complete waste of $350. My boyfriend and I snorkeleds around for an hour or so and then really just spent the rest of the day waiting for the return trip back to Key West. I will say that the crew on the Yankee Freedom III work extremely hard to make their passengers comfortable and happy. That crew was working triple time and they seemed to take all the hustle in stride. So, the gist of my review is this...if you like learning about history and exploring old structures, this is ideal for you. If you are hoping to explore a pristine islands and coral reefs, skip this and book a tour with one of the adventure companies.
