We are so glad we decided to take this tour. It was very educational and a lot of fun. I appreciated all the details we learned about art deco and the events that evolved the city of Miami. John, our tour guide was informative and went above and beyond to make sure the tour was fun.

I knownyou can just go in hotel lobbies,but I don't. John, our tour leader, took us into some great deco hotel lobbies and explained Art Deco. He told us how and why Miami Deco is different than New York or even Toronto. As a design major I knew some of this but having the local perspective not to mention a... More

We love art and architecture and our tour guide was the best. Super interesting, with lots of anecdotes and examples. After this tour, we did not have to go take a tour anywhere else downtown, we understood what South Beach is about !!! Thank you so much for this great experience !!!

Everyone has seen the Art Deco buildings. Now, you can learn a bit about them too. Knowledgeable guide. Costs $20.00 per person. It takes about two hours. Worthwhile.

We took a morning tour with Robert and absolutely loved it. He offered a perfect mix of history, architectural information, and personal anecdotes from his decades of living in the area. The tour made us see South Beach through new eyes, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting Miami.

On speaking to Christine she was very accommodating with when we wanted to arrange the tour and provided us with all the necessary information ahead of time. We actually... More

This was a fabulous tour and if I hadn't had to race back to the other end of South Beach to feed the metre on my car, I wouldn't have missed the last 30 minutes, which I regret. It's a fabulous tour and our guide was passionate and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour!
