The experience

The tour starts at your hotel and moves through Miami Beach's Art Deco district, where the world's largest concentration of Art Deco architecture lines Ocean Drive. From there you'll see Downtown Miami's skyline and modern high-rises, then head to Bayside Marketplace: a Caribbean-style shopping mall on the water with yachts, restaurants, bars, and the new Sky View Miami observation wheel. The Brickell Financial District comes next, a redeveloped hub of sleek towers and trendy spots that shows how fast this part of the city is changing.

Wynwood is the centerpiece for many travelers: it's billed as the world's largest open-air museum, packed with murals, galleries, restaurants, and bars. Wynwood Walls is the top draw, but the whole district is art-filled streets. The Miami Design District (the city's luxury fashion and furniture heart) is also on the route. Both Coconut Grove and Coral Gables may be included depending on time and your preferences. Coconut Grove is a large, quiet, wealthy neighborhood known for lush tropical vegetation, while Coral Gables is the postcard version of Miami, with Spanish-style buildings and manicured gardens.

You travel in an air-conditioned vehicle with a professional local guide who knows the neighborhoods and can adjust the stops to match what you want to see. Bottled water is provided. The whole experience runs about four hours, ending with a drop-off at your hotel or home.
