2.City Half Day Tour of Miami by Bus with Sightseeing Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 2,747 reviews · 5 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $34

“An interesting tour with entertaining and enthusiastic guide. Saw some good sights. For us stopping at a cigar shop and being left in the vicinity for lunch in an area where we needed to get an Uber to get somewhere more central was not ideal. That was to us, a waste of time. The tour…recommended.”

“The yacht tour and staff of the boat was incredible. Good music, good hospitality. I would’ve given this experience a 5 until the promoter who looks like an off brand T-pain was incredibly rude. If you had any questions, and you weren’t someone he was “interested” in, he would not answer your questions. Not sure how he lasted so long as a “guide”. Overall it was good experience.”
