Appreciate Greater Miami and Miami Beach in a whole new way by taking a walking tour through the Miami Design Preservation League.

The Official Art Deco Walking Tour is a great introduction to the architectural styles found on Miami Beach, like Art Deco, Mediterranean Revival, and Miami Modern (MiMo). There’s plenty of time to stop, take photos, and appreciate the details you would likely otherwise overlook without a guide. The tour is offered daily at 10:30 am. It’s a good idea to reserve your ticket online ahead of time. It costs $35 per person. It is $30 for seniors (65 and up), veterans and students.
