    Exotic tastes

    We had the pleasure of touring Grimal Grove and doing a tasting this afternoon. The history of the place is fascinating and, while Adolph Grimal was clearly passionate about his exotic fruit trees, current ownership and management has obviously picked up that ball and run with it. Amazing place and one of the hidden gems of the lower Keys.

    Very cool Experience at Grimal Grove

    Very cool place! We learned of this place on a TV show and put it on our bucket list! Tour guide was outstanding, as was the exotic fruit tasting. Back story of Adolf Grimal is great! Great value for the money!

    From the Land to the “Charfruiterie” Board

    This review is long overdue, as we had the pleasure of taking this incredible tour a couple of months ago. From the moment the gate opened and we were warmly welcomed, until our departure several hours later, we were completely captivated. The tour exceeded our expectations in every way—not only because of the depth of knowledge shared with us, but also because of the genuine love, respect, and care shown for the land. That passion made the experience feel especially meaningful. And, of course, the perfect finishing touch was what we have affectionately dubbed the “charfruiterie” board—such a delicious and memorable way to end an already wonderful experience! Thank you for sharing this special place with us. We would happily take this tour again and again and cannot recommend it highly enough.

    Fruit Tree Grove In the Florida Keys!

    What a Treat! Jenn was our host and walked us through the grove explaining the various exotic trees and the history of each. Then treated us to samples of all the fruit at the end of the tour. The experience is something I found pleasantly unlike any other excursion in the Florida Keys. A fruit tree grove in the Keys?? Just an absolutely great experience. We will definitely be back

    Unique and not crowded

    Fun and educational. No actually fruit picking but we got to try many different varieties of fruit grown in the orchard.

    Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Key West.

    How much does Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove cost?

    +

    Prices start at $38 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Key West usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Key West is not rushed.

    Is Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Key West, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove?

    +

    Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Key West can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Key West and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Key West within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Key West?

    +

    Key West is a boat town. The only living coral barrier reef in the continental US sits seven miles offshore, and reef trips, sunset catamarans and backcountry kayak runs are the core bookings, alongside Hemingway house and Duval history walks. Our ranking weighs boat capacity and reef site rotation, which separates the good operators from the party cruises. On Outty we rank every Key West experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guided Bike Tour of Old Town Key West, Half-Day Trip from Key West with Kayaking, Snorkeling & Sunset, Shark and Wildlife Viewing Adventure in Key West. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Key West?

    +

    December to April, dry season and calm reef water. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Key West?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove?

    +

    Included: Snacks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Tropical Fruit Hunting Tour at Grimal Grove?

    +
