I have to echo the other reviews. Marty was my guide. He was inexhaustibly energetic and clearly loves what he does. I booked this tour because it's my first trip to Miami and because of tripadvisor rating. There were 4 of us on the tour, which was nice because it was easy to hear and we could get around SoBe...

I know Marty from his days as an overseas country director and I had the chance to take one of his Art Deco Walking Tours in South Beach Miami. (And I've been making trips to S. Fla for much of my life.) Boy did I learn a lot with continuous laughter, beautiful sights, and an extraordinarily colorful flow of rare... More

On a recent visit to Miami, as an Art Deco Tragic, I was fortunate to join Marty's tour and learn the concise history of an uninhabited mangrove swamp turned into the renowned "Art Deco Capital of the World", as it is known today. We were introduced to the exterior and interior of the hotels in SOBE, where the architectural style... More

We arranged our walking tour by email with Paula. She was very flexible and arranged a tour time to suit us. The tour was fantastic, Paula was very knowledgeable and pitched her info to us perfectly. Unfortunately because of the time of the year (busy spring break) we couldn't have access to many hotel lobbies or rooftops but Paula still... More

From beginning to end, the walking tour was outstanding! It included the history of Miami and Miami Beach, elements of Art Deco Architecture, and viewing the interiors and exteriors of several buildings! Marty's sense of humor is superb!! Don't miss this tour!!

Enjoyed a lovely tour of the buildings on Ocean Avenue in South Beach with Paula as my guide. Paula is well informed, well spoken and is just easy to listen to. Her knowledge of the history of the deco period is fascinating and extensive. Marty gave my small group a tour of The New World Symphony and he was also... More

I highly recommend Marty's tour. He is very knowledgeable & got us into hotel lobbies and roof-top bars that I am sure we never would have seen, much less known about. There were only four of us on the tour which made it more personal and easy to get around during the busy month of March. My friend & I... More

I just experienced Marty's Ocean Drive tour. I really enjoyed it. I have been staying in Miami Beach for the winter for several years, but taking this tour helps me to appreciate the Art Deco design and the history of the beautiful hotels. He is very knowledgable and very interesting. I would highly recommend this tour!!

Took this Tour yesterday. Arranged by my Art Club. What a pleasant surprise. Even though I thought I was familiar with South Beach history and architecture, Paula provided lots of insights and information. She was totally charming and friendly. A great guide I would recommend her and Marty without hesitation. Even her lunch recommendation hit the spot.
