A really great tour - our guide Kenn was great. He really made learning about the "Art Deco Style" and the history of preserving the historic hotels in Miami Beach a treat. You only walk a few blocks, but the sights and information was unbeatable. Be sure and return to see the lobby of some of the hotels he pointed out after the tour is over,.

We spend one day only in SoBe and were very happy to have choosed this tour. Very clear explanations of our guide, with also a very clear pronunciation, easy to understand for a foreigner...We learned many things on history of Art Deco architecture in SoBe. We strongly recommend this tour, that you can complete with your own walking tour.

Very nice and instructive one hour audio walking tour with an iPod, in french. Some other languages available. You can move around, with provided map of the district, at your own pace. The best way to see art deco in South Beach. The provided earphones (ear buds) where clean, but you can use yours if you want !
