March 16-21, 2016 Still a U.S. territory, but closer to

Cuba than Miami, Key West, Florida is a dynamic collage of culture, food, nature and people. Without a doubt, one of the most “laid back” cities on

the planet, Key West is known for its easy-going lifestyle, great weather and nearly 24/7 party atmosphere. Travel with us in March to experience four days and five nights of this quirky,

unique and sometime eccentric piece of real estate. The $450 per person

cost based on double occupancy covers transportation, five nights lodging and

some meals. This is a super St. Patrick’s Day party destination. Space is limited and advanced reservations are required because this trip always

fills up fast.

tickets and vouchers. We have tickets for plantation, carriage and harbor tours along with other downtown attractions such as

the South Carolina Aquarium, Patriots Point and Stingrays hockey games. A day at the Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia is

Also, we have deals on tickets for Disney World, Busch Gardens, Sea World in Florida and the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta. Stop by for more details or going on-line to
