One of the best tourist spots to soak up the Cuban flavors and lifestyle in Miami. A historic and one of a kind location not found anywhere else. You will have the chance to experience cigar making, cuban rum, cortaditos (coffee) and pastelitos (pastry, salsa music and so much more. I recommend you walk up and down 8th street on both sides and spend approximately 2-4 hours enjoying this vibrant location.

If you have an interest in reconnecting with nature than this park is for you. A federally protected sanctuary for the Florida Panther and a few indigenous tribes local to Florida. You will find many activities that are offered by the park or you can set some time at night to take a bike ride in the dark through the park (not for the feint of heart). This is a very unique experience for those looking to enjoy the outdoors.

If you want to have your Instagram or Facebook page with an amazing picture of the Miami skyline, I highly recommend a picture from Key Biscayne beach. The beach is very calm and those who visit are there to relax. A great place to paddle board, bike ride, wind surf or relax by the water.

A new up and coming city that has plenty of nightlife, restaurants and a strong Venezuelan/Colombian influence. Many people enjoy doral for its up and coming construction of new malls and residence towers. NW 36 ST would be highly recommended , Dolphin Mall and Miami International Mall

One of my favorite spots for their "Carne Asada Especial". I am bit biased since I myself am from Honduras, so of course I will love this. Baleadas, Sopa Marinera, Tacos de Pollo are some of my favorites!

Uber , Metro, Tri-Rail and Bus to get around

Miami is notorious for its traffic during peak times. Taking advantage of Uber, Metro, Tri-Rail and buses are the best way to move around the city without having to worry about parking. Some areas like Coral Gables and Wynwood provide local buses that help tourists move around
Gelenekler ve kültür

Diverse cultures and customs

We have several cultures and countries mixed into Miami. Depending on where you go you will find a stronger culture of certain countries for example Doral (Venezuela and Colombia), Little Havana (Cuban), Homestead (Mexico).
Yanınızda getirmeniz gerekenler

Sandals, no sleeve shirts, shorts and bathing suit!

The heat here can be unrelenting during most of the year, so feeling cool will be very important. For those that are not used to the heat, sunblock will be important as well as keeping hydrated. Miami does not take itself to seriously so sandals , crocs or open toe shoes are very much in display throughout the year.

"Soy Turista" - "Soy TOUR - eee -- STAH"

Letting the locals know you are a tourist will likely help you enjoy the city more. There's a very strong Spanish speaking influence in the city and many will speak only Spanish, depending on where you visit. Saying you're a tourist can make things easier for you and will make us locals quickly change back to speaking English or finding someone who does.
