Fantastic, Historical, Easy to Follow walking Tour!

Fantastic, informative, historical and easy to follow self guided walking tour. We were going to book an organized tour but so glad we did this instead. We were’n’t restricted by any meeting times. We started the tour at 3:00 pm after meeting a friend at the Art Deco Museum.. which is a must if you’re visiting South Beach! It was worth every Penny.. definitely worth downloading as it gives you flexibility to start and stop it when you want!

Just what I was looking for…

I was looking for a way to kill time in Miami where I could learn about the city’s history and this tour did just that. Some stops could use updates but overall great technology and I learned a lot. Love the convenience of going at my own pace.

Two Thumbs Up

We loved the flexibility and ease of the tour. We saw much more than we would have just walking around aimlessly. Seeing South Beach with a narrator made for a visually and historically pleasant experience.
