Miami holidays

Miami is a giant playground, and there’s something for everyone:

• Beach Time – Okay, it’s Miami, so the beaches are a must. South Beach is the iconic one, but there are plenty of quieter spots like Virginia Key or Crandon Park if you’re looking for a more chill vibe.

• Art and Culture – If you love art, you’ve gotta check out the Wynwood Walls—it’s like an outdoor gallery of incredible street art. Or pop into the Perez Art Museum to check out some seriously cool exhibitions.

• Nature Adventures – Take a wild airboat ride through the Everglades to spot some alligators, or rent a kayak and paddle through Oleta River State Park (hello, nature vibes!).

• Shopping and Dining – Shop ‘til you drop at places like Lincoln Road Mall or Bayside Marketplace, and then chow down on Miami’s amazing food scene (think: fresh seafood, Cuban sandwiches, and a ton of Latin-inspired flavors).

• Nightlife – Miami after dark? It’s a whole other level. Whether you're dancing the night away at a rooftop bar or catching live music at a cozy venue, the nightlife here is legendary.

Getting around Miami is a breeze, If you've not hired a car with us, then get in touch, but if you want a few days not at the wheel here's a few options:

• Public transport – If you're feeling like a local, hop on the Metrorail or Metrobus. They’ll take you all around the city—from the Airport to Downtown to Little Havana. Super affordable and convenient!

• Taxis & Ride-sharing – Taxis and Uber/Lyft are all over the place, so you can always grab a ride if you’re not near public transit. Plus, it’s great for those short trips where you don’t feel like walking.

• Biking & Walking – Miami is pretty bike-friendly, especially in areas like South Beach and Wynwood, so grab a Citi Bike and cruise around the city. Or just put on your walking shoes and explore on foot!

Oh man, Miami food is chef’s kiss! The city is a melting pot of flavors, and you’re in for a treat. Here’s a little preview of what to expect:

• Cuban Goodness – Miami’s Cuban food is seriously next level. Get your hands on a Cuban sandwich, try Ropa Vieja (shredded beef), or dig into some Moros y Cristianos (black beans and rice). Trust us, you’ll love it.

• Seafood Galore – Fresh seafood is a given in Miami. From stone crabs to grouper to ceviche, you’re never far from a seafood feast.

• Latin & Caribbean Flavors – Miami is all about those Latin and Caribbean flavors. Think Peruvian ceviche, Argentine empanadas, or Haitian griot (fried pork). It's a flavor explosion!

• Fusion Vibes – The city loves a good food fusion. From sushi burritos to Latin-Asian creations, you’ll find some wild, trendy dishes to try.
