You'll get to experience incredible foods of the famous South Beach, or SoBe, as the locals call it. A fun walking adventure that will take you to 5 different establishments in South Beach to try some of the wonderful food found there. What an incredibly diverse area and you can expect to hear English, Spanish and German everywhere you go. This eclectic mix of cultures also includes South American and Asian influences, all of which make for a unique culinary experience you won't find anywhere else.
Whether you are arriving just for the day or in Miami either before or after your cruise, you will meet at the first stop of this fun walking excursion. Your guide will lead your small group from stop to stop at a nice leisurely pace along Ocean Drive. You'll not just get to taste some of the best foods that SoBe has to offer, but see amazing sights as well. You can either pick a lunch or a dinner excursion time. The food is about the same but the view in the evening changes when the neon lights along Ocean Beach come on.
Did you know that South Beach has the largest collection of Art Deco architecture in the world? You'll have a chance to see the beauty of that style as well as enjoy the, sometimes outlandish, fashions worn by the locals. This area has long nurtured diversity and creativity and you won't be disappointed. Street art is everywhere and quite impressive, as are the more traditional art galleries. As far as local transportation, you'll see folks on skateboards, roller blades, bicycles, motorcycles and lots of folks just walking from store to store to select their foods for the day.
