The property and history is pretty amazing. As many other reviews have mentioned, a good portion of the rooms and structures are closed for renovations. They have reduced the entry to $20 from $25 but it still was a little disappointing that the casino building and several rooms in the house were closed. Being that it was the offseason, some of the gardens did seem to be past their peak. We hope to return when everything is open in season and tour the whole facility.

Rachel is above and beyond awesome. Beautiful art space outdoor and indoor (this was a great break from the heat). The outdoor fans, great idea but they aren't cold so not helping anyone cool off hehe On our second visit we brought the kids and did some spray painting on canvases and a skateboard. Such a great experience. Alex and her partner Andres were so helpful made the experience very enjoyable.

Wynwood Art Walk Tours isn't just walking past murals. It's walking with someone who knows which…read morewalls have stories attached, which artists took risks, which pieces cost the neighborhood something. The murals themselves are massive and they're professional, but scale alone doesn't make art work. Context does. Shepard Fairey's augmented reality layer is the differentiator here. It's not a gimmick. When you scan a mural with your phone, the piece opens up into layers and motion. It's the artist's way of saying "there's more here than what you see." It works because it's restrained, not constantly pulling you into your screen. You're still in the neighborhood. You're just seeing deeper. The guide we had knew the economics of gentrification in Wynwood. Knew which artists have been here for years and which are new money. Knew the politics of murals, why some walls get painted and others get buffed, why some artists collaborate and some don't. That knowledge cost something to build. You're paying for it. We took three teenagers, ages 14-17. Not a group naturally inclined to stand still for street art. They asked questions about technique, about why certain artists choose certain walls, about whether the AR experience changes how you see the piece or adds distraction. They engaged. That's not about impressive art alone, that's about the tour structure creating room for actual thinking instead of passive consumption. The neighborhood is dense and chaotic and intentional all at once. You'll see pieces that are technically flawless next to pieces that are deliberately rough. Some murals are massive, some are character-scale. Some artists are making statements about politics, some about beauty, some about ownership. The variation is what keeps it alive. A sanitized art walk would kill this. Walking it yourself is free and worth doing once. Walking it with the tour is $29 and worth doing if you want to understand why these walls matter to the city and why some artists chose to paint them. The difference is context. Context costs something, but you leave with more than photos. The sun hits different at 4 PM than at 11 AM, so timing matters if photography is part of your thing. The neighborhood gets foot traffic but it's not overwhelming. You're in a real place, not a theme park. That texture is part of why this works.

Redland Tropical Trail, sometimes merely referred to as "Redlands," is a membership organization of…read moretourist oriented business sights generally covering an area located between the Everglades National Park and Biscayne National Park south of Miami, Florida. The Redland Tropical Trail members include RF Orchids, Coral Castle, Everglades Alligator Farm, Schnebly's Winery, The Bonsai Garden, Robert is Here Fruit Stand, Monkey Jungle, Capri Restaurant, and Cauly Square Historic Village. Hitting all of these places, which I've managed to do, takes some time, as in four or five days if you do it right. Everglades National Park alone can take several days to cover and if you do go to Everglades National Park I highly recommend phoning the park in advance in order to get the correct schedule time for the HM69 Nike Missile Base Tour which the Redland's brochure fails to account for or mention.

Coconut Grove is Miami's oldest neighborhood, known for its bohemian charm, lush canopy, and laid-back bayside lifestyle. It's along Biscayne Bay, this walkable village offers a blend of historic charm, high-end dining, sailing culture, and elite private schools. It is a premier residential area combining tropical surroundings with modern, upscale shops. There are still many banyan trees, but the roaming peacocks are history.

Also be sure to explore the grotto and the waterfalls. They will stop admitting guests once they reach capacity, so try to arrive early. There are plenty of lifeguards around to keep everyone safe.

I was hesitant, not sure about doing a high-speed boat in the swamp, but once you were on it, you feel very safe and secure. Such a great time. Then being able to hold the gators, especially one that is 4 feet long, it was almost the height of one of my kids so that was really cool. I would highly recommend anyone with a family going and experiencing this place. It truly was a unique opportunity and so much fun for all!

I felt like the airport ride was a lot longer in the previous visit I had. This was only 20 minutes, but we got lucky as we saw a lot of wildlife on our ride.

Otherwise they have two gator shows that you can watch. We only went to one as we had to be going to get to Key West. Otherwise, I felt like my first experience was better than this one.
