Cruise was Great but upon return Cito our guide/driver was not there to pick us up where he dropped us off and take us to Uber pickup point as promised. We ended up flagging down a taxi at Pier 5 where we were dropped off.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the cruise, but we're truly sorry for the inconvenience after the tour. We understand how frustrating it must have been not to find your guide/driver at the agreed pickup location, especially when you were expecting assistance to the Uber pickup point. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will address it with our team to help prevent this from happening again. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a smoother experience in the future.
I’ve been to Miami many times but this time was with family so decided to do this family friendly event. It was really good, learned things about Miami and it’s history that I never knew! JP, our guide for the land tour was great! He was informative about the history and culture, had a very light hearted spirit and made sure we were comfy. Wynwood and Little Havana were my favorite stops and we appreciated the Cuban food and shopping recommendations! The cruise was nice as well. The kids really enjoyed the water view of star island and the millionaire houses. Overall It was time well spent on Day 2 of our visit and would recommend!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that your family enjoyed the experience and that it became a memorable part of your Miami vacation. It's great to know that JP made the city tour both informative and enjoyable while sharing Miami’s rich history, culture, and local stories. We're especially happy that you enjoyed exploring Wynwood and Little Havana, and that the food and shopping recommendations added to your day. It's also fantastic to hear that the kids loved seeing Star Island and the beautiful waterfront homes during the sightseeing cruise. Thank you for recommending our Miami City Tour and Boat Cruise experience. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you and your family back for another adventure the next time you're in Miami!
I came to Miami along with a few other family members one day early for a cruise. We flew in to Ft Lauderdale. Due to a few hours delay of my flight and the traffic from Ft Lauderdale to Miami, we were not able to make our scheduled time. The company was great in accommodating us with a different time. We changed our times a few more times because of other conflicting issues and again, the company was still willing to accommodate us. We finally were able to take the tour 9 days later (after the cruise). The instructions they give you to their location was very simple and easy to find. Every staff member we encountered was very friendly from checking in, receiving the tickets at the ticket booth, and actually taking the tour. We started with the boat tour. It was great! Due to other things we had planned, we decided not to do the land tour. Such a great company! I would recommend Miami Skyline Cruises to all my family and friends.

Our driver was great took us to slot of places and was very friendly. The boat part of the tour just seemed like the back of the same thing we drove through but the guide didn’t share much. My 4 rating was because of the boat ride not the city tour. The guide on the boat was very high pressure about tipping. I had spent $20 on the photo but he asked at least 4 times for a tip and went around with a bucket 3 times. I understand that is part of his pay but the high pressure made it so i didn’t want to tip him
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the city tour and that your driver was friendly, knowledgeable, and able to show you many of Miami's top attractions. We're sorry to hear that the boat portion of the experience did not fully meet your expectations. We understand your concerns regarding the narration and the repeated requests for tips. While gratuities are always appreciated by our crew, guests should never feel uncomfortable or pressured. Your comments are important to us and will be shared with our management team for review. We truly appreciate your honest feedback and are glad that the city tour helped make your overall experience enjoyable. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for an even better experience in the future.
Our tour guide was Tommy. He was extremely knowledgeable of Miami and was very energetic. I was nervous about the 3 hour city tour about having to sit in a van for that long but we made frequent stops and got to walk around and take pictures so the time flew by quickly. The boat ride was awesome and the crew was very friendly. Definitely would recommend this to others. Thank you for a great tour of Miami!!!
Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear that Tommy made your experience so memorable with his energy and knowledge of Miami. We’re also happy to know the stops along the city tour kept things fun and exciting, and that you enjoyed the boat ride and our friendly crew. Your recommendation truly means a lot to us.

For what I paid this was a great intro to Miami and where i may want to revisit Bus tour better than the boat with much more info - the tour of famous peoples mansions was fun but when the two guides use the names of famous people linked to different homes you realise it isnt all true. Fun experience though

Thank you again for sharing your experience with us, and we hope to welcome you back again soon for another Miami adventure!
Very fun and informative tour going around city with a van and few people and also boat tour is the highlight of this tour
