About
We host both Art Deco & Little Havana Tours. In Miami mainland we offer the original, indepth cultural walking tour of Little Havana that shares the rich stories behind unassuming buildings, landmarks, traditions and people within a greater context of heritage. Your expert guide will delve into the history of Cuban exiles and the Bay of Pigs battle. You'll also visit the oldest fruit marketplace and Domino Park, sample refreshing tropical juice; witness tobacco leaves handrolled into fine cigars; admire largest Cuban art collection; sway or dance to the rhythms of salsa or bachata; meet and talk to locals; sip Cuban coffee. Take the longer tour and end it with a savory, homemade lunch. Tours offered daily at 10am. Private tours also available to focus on your interests: photography, art, food, cocktails, cigars or any combination. We recommend booking your tour directly with us for best prices and perks.)

Great experience on the Cigar and Rum Tasting Tour with Darine! Darine is Cuban American and shared her informed perspective of the Cuban culture and history as well as about the food, rum and cigar culture of Cuba and Miami. We learned so much, and it was all done through normal everyday easy conversations with Darine as we strolled down 8th Avenue in Little Havana. It felt like we were stepping right into Cuba each time we entered a cigar lounge, store or bar. We had veteran and novice cigar smokers in the group, and all of us really enjoyed the three hours we spent learning so much on the tour. Highly recommend!

Dr V (Miguel) was a great guide. He danced around little Havana and was very knowledgeable about the culture and everything Cuba and Little Havana! We enjoyed stopping at a bakery for coffee, local shop for dominoes, and ended with an authentic Cuban lunch.

This was a perfect intro to the area. Our guide, Danny, was fun and knowledgeable and thoughtful. The tour was a perfect amount of time. We loved lunching with our fellow group members. This was a highlight of our vacation.

James was our guide. Very nice guy and obviously knows the area very well having lives here for 20-30 years. The tour starts with a 30-40 minute history of the area of Miami Beach and how James came to the area, and enjoying a cocktail. Then visiting the exterior and interior of several Art Deco hotels and more cocktails. Going inside the hotels is one of the best parts as some have the original interior from 1930s and James knows all about all of them. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in Miami Art Deco thanks so much James!

Hello!
Thank you for sharing your experience on the ART DECO COCKTAIL tour with James. He is certainly a lively entertainer and has a passion for the history and architecture of South Beach. What better way to learn than a pre-dinner cocktail tour where you can sit inside and enjoy the design and ambiance.
Thank you again.
Cheers!

Hello Gregory!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience on the Little Havana Cultural Walking tour. Danny is our lead guide with his extensive knowledge (having lived there for 40 years) and immersion in the culture. You were not lead by just a guide doing his job, but a local who loves sharing the history and evolution of his neighborhood and local culture.
Be sure to try our other experiences to learn more about other cultures in this multicultural barrio.
Saludos!

Do you have early evening food walking tours for Little Havana ?

I don't believe they offer evening food walking tours. If you click on the "BOOK ONLINE" link of their website, it only offers morning bookings. Little Havana Walking Tours is very good at responding to emails, however. Perhaps they could answer their question. Or do a Google search - that shows many other options for evening food tours of Little Havana.

Hello Carolyn, all the information is provided on the website, visit our Trip Advisor page and click link at top that says "website". Also, the meeting point is provided on the confirmation. We have two meeting points depending if you take the indepth 3 hour tour with food. or the abbreviated tour (2 hours) without food (although we can direct you to the best authentic homemade style Cuban food and suggest menu items we order for our tours). The 3 hour tour (10am daily) with lunch is $45; the shorter tour without food is $30.
We hope to see you soon.

They do it every day, but ours started at 11:30, not at 10. Yes, the shops are open.
How far is it from the airport

I would say 45 min ride from the airport area with week day traffic. Well worth every minute.

Hello. all the details are on our website. The link is located on the Trip Advisor page. Unfortunately Trip Advisor does not allow us to include website links in these responses. visit artdecotours [.]com Visit Little Havana Tour.
It's about a 3 hour tour with an indepth look into the political, religious history and social customs of Cuban exiles that has shaped this neighborhood and Miami. Enjoy your visit!

We would be interested in a walking tour of Little Havana on either December 27 or 28. What time is the tour? is there only one per day? What is the cost. There will be 3 adults. We will probably be staying at an airport hotel. Will you pick up and drop off at the hotel?

I would love to do this, but my flight lands on Sunday at 6:10pm and I leave for a cruise the following day. Is there any way we could do an evening tour? maybe some dinner or something?

Hello, unfortunately most places close early on Sunday in Little Havana as it's located in quiet residential neighborhood. With the exception of a couple of restaurants and bars, most shops close before 5pm.
