Reviews
"Really great tour yesterday hosted by Damian full of information in an engaging and entertaining delivery taking in the key buildings on Ocean Drag and neighbouring streets including going inside some of the buildings. Highly recommended"
"Do you think you know Art Deco? Think again! With The Official Art Deco Walking Tour by The Miami Design Preservation League, there's so much more than meets the eye. Our tour guide, Martin, did a great job mixing historical references with comedic relief to teach us about South Beach's rich cultural and architectural history. We learned why South Beach's pastel color palette reshaped Miami's future, how gamblers found a hotel's secret bookie, and how to identify an original building from a new development. You won't want to miss this tour. Book today! P.S. Make sure to visit the Art Deco Welcome Center gift shop after your tour for some unique vintage memorabilia."
"My wife and I went on the Art Deco walking tour with Julie -- I had lots of questions and she was happy to answer them! She also made some great recommendations for food after the tour. Anyone interested in architecture should make sure to include this tour when they're in South Beach!"
"Miami Design Preservation League's Art Deco walking tour and their museum are a must-see for those interested in the history of South Florida and Miami Beach. The Art Deco Walking Tour volunteers will also fill you in on the specific architectural details of the many beautiful buildings that front the beach and take you into the lobbies of a couple of them to see additional design elements up close. I highly recommend this tour."
"For this overwhelmed West Coaster, this was my favorite place to visit in all of South Beach. It was informative and quiet and cool. I found a lot of vintage postcards at the gift shop, which was great because I collect postcards."
