Our guided island tour begins with a short train ride to Pigeon Key, or you can walk or bike to the island along the Old 7 Mile Bridge. Once you arrive, you’ll step back to the Henry Flagler era and discover how the island has evolved over the past century. Enjoy a narrated walk through the grounds, learn the history behind the buildings, and explore at your own pace—whether wandering the island or visiting our museum. This family-friendly experience lasts about an hour, followed by an additional hour for self-guided exploration, making it perfect for visitors of all ages.
Train departs & returns to and from the Pigeon Key Visitors Center at 1090 Overseas Highway, Marathon, FL, 33050. Please check-in ten minutes prior to departure.
Tickets can be purchased on the same day in-person or you can reserve your spot online up to 2 weeks in advance if you have a time and date preference.
