Easy to reserve, clear directions, and they set us up with a great operator out in the glades. The airboat portion was the highlight: real wild gator sightings and a captain who knew the area cold.

Our friends booked our "Little Havana Food & Walking Tour in Miami" through Viator, but I was…read moreunable to leave my review since I didn't do the direct booking. So, I went for the next best opportunity and leaving my review on Yelp. It shouldn't take too long to realize, this is a must do tour. We love learning about the areas we visit, listen and learn authentic information of the area by passionate locals. Dani encompasses all of that and more. We had already visited the San Carlos Institute in Key West and gained information on the history of Cuba and the citizens escaping Castro and his regime. What a beautiful culture of food, music, dance, clothing, art they brought to the US. Do not eat before you come as you will miss out on the fabulous sampling of Cuban food & drink. There is enough food on this tour that you will not leave hungry. I won't restate all the offerings which you can see from reviews and the tour posting. We have never had Empanadas as good as today and that was just the start. I hope the area of Little Havana continues to thrive and many people experience it. If visitors from Germany book this tour, so should American citizens. So much to appreciate. What a great opportunity our friend booked for us today and thanks to Dani for bringing it all to life.

I cannot recommend this tour enough! We had Toni as our guide for the Little Havana Food Tour. She…read morewas so energetic and knowledgeable, and so prepared! She brought ponchos so we could continue on as it rained. It was beautiful to learn about and see this neighborhood through the eyes of someone who grew up here. Toni knows so much history and seemed to know so many of the people, too! The tour has so much food - I was honestly more than full at the end and I didn't even finish all of my portions. I think it was a really good range of drinks, desserts, and food. Even though that coffee cup looks small, that's a full serving size and it was strong! I really really appreciate that this tour not only accommodated for vegetarians but also chose options for me that were realllllly good. Instead of the cubano, I had these fried plantain cups stuffed with veggies. They were SO good and seasoned well! And the spinach and cheese empanada was also amazing. My friend who got the meat options also loved her food. This tour is the perfect way to learn more about Cuban history, the history of the neighborhood, see all the street art, watch a game at domino park, and experience some of the best food in Miami. I cannot recommend this enough!!!

We only had 2 others on our boat, the Hammerhead, and Cpt Jess did a great job reading the group.

Snorkeling in the bay by the mangroves was magical and by far the highlight.

I was creeped out by the Native American mannequin holding the gun on the second floor. There was so much to read I just couldn't keep up with everything. The floors are the original Dade County pine wood like Old... ...Davie School and everything is still originally built except for the electric and water running thru the building. The third floor had a beautiful painting display in 3 different rooms and there was a model.... ....room of what this building should've looked like during it's early motel era. I was told customers only paid around $2 to spend the night here which was alot back in those days. Before you tour the building there's a historical short film about Fort Lauderdale in the lobby downstairs which was exciting. Only downfall, you have to pay for parking outside. Another thing was, none of the staff... ...told me that there were two more houses outside to look at, everyone stayed quiet. I was charged my $3 with food stamps to see this.

WOW! What a beautiful gem!…read more I'm honestly in shock I didn't know about the Coral Gables Museum beforehand but this venue is gorgeous. Located in the heart of the Gables this museum is the perfect spot to host lovely evening looking at the stars. I came here for a private event and was fascinated by the Spanish inspired architecture, bistro lights, star gazing and the live music + food that was brought by outside vendors leading it to be the most perfect night. The place itself is spacious, airy, and cozy all at the same time. If you're looking to host a private event that will transport you to a European night, this is the spot!

The museum is cozy and transmits a historic vibe, being set in the old firehouse station, and features a charming patio perfect for enjoying a refreshing afternoon or a starry night. The exhibit is beautifully curated and full of life, it truly immerses you in her journey and fills you with the energy of her achievements. It's inspiring to see Celia throughout all her phases, uplifting your spirit and reminding you of the incredible, adventurous experiences life can bring. I really appreciate when institutions pay homage to true Latin icons with all the glory that a symbol of Latin music and culture deserves. Even though the exhibit is small, it's a joyful little capsule of azúcar that reminds you that life is a carnival of happiness. La Reina Celia will always live on through us, every time we dance to her rhythms and step into her world. Just wish it would be a little bigger as the ticket might be a little bit expensive for the exhibitions space and offer (my only reason I don't that the final star it deserves). Coral Gables Museum, keep nourishing our spirit with exhibits like this.

We found a Living Social for the Food Tours of Miami and decided to give it a try. I wasn't even…read moreaware that Miami offered food tours before we ran across this deal. Just today we took the tour and were amazed. My husband and I had a wonderful time! Everything about THIS food tour was 5 stars. Steve was our guide and he is such a nice person, we felt really comfortable asking questions and speaking with him. Also, he is very knowledgeable about Miami and its history. But more than that, he made the tour very personal. The four places we ate at were great. By the end of the tour I was quite satisfied with the range of foods we had tried. I'm also glad that now I have some new places to go to on South Beach that I never would have tried before. I am sworn to secrecy on which places you'll visit, as each tour should be a fun surprise, just as Steve intends it to be. Believe me, you will have an amazing time. I would definitely recommend this tour to others and I myself will definitely go back for more! This tour would be perfect for a date, group of friends, or just for those foodies who want to try new places!

We didn't miss much because the guide was not hasty in how he presented the information and allowed the group time to savor the food. Thus, our hour late did not spoil the tour for us. The guide was very accommodating as he reviewed what we missed and was very welcoming although we were so tardy. The guide was well read. The food was delicious. I am planning to go again. It's an awesome experience that is a change of pace from the usual outings. It is worth your time and money.

I did the Miami city tour today. Don't waste your money. We picked up the tour at Miami Beach…read more They told us to be there 2:20 and the van got there at 2:40. The guide was not an engaging guide- very monotone and gave very generic facts. He was very focused on sites/facts related to Scarface- mentioned it at least 5 times. He did not always tell factual information- things Google can tell you otherwise. He gave arbitrary times at each stop- for example he gave 40 minutes at Little Havana, and most of us were waiting on the van for the bus driver. The tour was supposed to be 3 1/2 hours, so it should've ended at 5:30. We got off the van at 6:15 and that's only because someone on our van asked to get off early. Very disappointing. Definitely would not recommend.

One observation we made was how many people he knew as we walked around Miami Beach and this was seen in how personable and genuine he was on our tour. We started at David's Cafe and got an awesome Cuban sandwich and coffee. Then we traveled the Trolley to a neat Argentinian place for empanadas: Next stop was a Algerian place for hummus and baba ganoush. My favorite place was our Brazilian stop on Espenola Way where we got these yucca balls stuffed with chicken and cream cheese..... SO GOOD! Finally we made it to Miami N-ice, for rolled passion fruit and mango ice cream- TO DIE FOR! All in all we had a blast, just the two of us with Farouk! We explored several buildings for their historic architecture, took pictures at The Carlisle where the Robin Williams movie, The Birdcage, was filmed. He knew all about the Mediterranean vs. Art Deco style. This tour allowed you to not only get a great meal, but a great experience with a very knowledgeable and energetic guide. The balance between eating, architecture, and good conversation made this a great night in Miami Beach! Farouk treats his customers well, and importantly he treats the locals well as he only supports the Mom and Pop owned restaurants to help keep the local culture and cuisine alive.

Danny knew so many people on the street who stopped to speak to him. Sure, most of those people had something to sell and they hoped we would be their customers- but it was a joy to be exposed to it all- a person with parrots for photographs, a man selling peanuts for a dollar, and all the people in all the shops we stopped in . We ate cuban sandwich (amazing!) , guava pastries, empanadas, and churros- it was basically two meals!. Danny also told lots of stories and we learned about the hobby of dominos with a Cuban twist, and the history of the Bay of Pigs. This was not a serious history tour, but it was super fun and I highly recommend it. He pointed out a jazz club on the tour, Ball & Chain- we stopped there for a cuban mojito after the tour and listened to the band. It was a wonderful afternoon.

Its all culturally narrated with stops that include cigar factory, Domino Park, Callejon Del Gallo, Ice Cream, Cuban Memorial, classic cars, and the theatre. NOTE: As self-professed coffee snob (Jamaican Blue Mountain, Kona Hawaiian, ect) this was added to my list! Less is best when it comes to Cuban coffee. Very rich and powerful little cup. The locals warned us to sip slow, woke me right up and offered good advice on adding sweetened condensed milk. Cost 5/5 $69.99 As a self-proclaimed high low girl, this tour was right up my alley. A good cultural tour which included food, drinks, historical facts, and opportunities to socialize. I also purchased food from the bakery, cigars, Cuban coffee, drinks, and souvenirs. I had plenty of leftovers and was full when it ended. This tour is included on the "Top 10 Food Tours in the U.S." for a reason, worth the cost. Location was central and rich with cultural from the elders in Domino Park playing dominions to the colorful roosters nearby. Great experience, I learned a lot. Apparently Gloria Estefan and her husband owns half the city, Love that for them.
