A great-value alternative to the official Art Deco tour. For under $30 you get two hours on foot with a guide who digs into the stories behind the facades, the landmarks along Ocean Drive and the communities that shaped South Beach. Rated 4.9 from more than 1,100 reviews.
Good to know
There's an optional food upgrade that adds Cuban tastings, including guava pastelitos, a Cuban sandwich and a secret dish. No hotel pickup; tips are extra. The official Miami Design Preservation League tour includes the Art Deco Museum, so choose that one if the museum matters to you.
