Small Group Miami sightseeing tour

Small Group Miami Sightseeing Tour with Beach Access, Star Island & More


The only Miami city tour that goes inside Star Island, to the beach, and beyond.


Discover Miami the right way on a mall group Miami sightseeing tour that’s unlike anything else in the city. With only 13 guests per ride, this 3.5-hour experience includes everything the big bus tours don’t: three guided walking tours, real beach access, a stop at the legendary Versace Mansion, and the chance to drive inside Star Island — something almost no other city tour offers. You'll also enjoy a secret Miami skyline photo stop, free bottled water, umbrellas for rain or shine, and the comfort of new, air-conditioned vans led by a professional, local tour guide. With two departures daily, this is the most complete and personalized Miami city tour available — designed for real travelers, not tourists.

Why Choose a Small Group Miami Sightseeing Tour?


Not all Miami tours are created equal. If you're looking for comfort, connection, and the chance to actually experience the city — not just see it from a distance — a small group Miami sightseeing tour is the only way to go.

This isn’t a rushed ride on a crowded double-decker. This is a semi-private, guided city tour designed for real travelers who want more than just a photo from a window seat.

Here’s what makes our tour stand out:


  • Longest city tour in Miami — 3.5 hours of exploring, learning, and experiencing, not just driving.
  • Small group setting with only 13 guests max — enjoy a more personal, relaxed vibe.
  • Bilingual tour in both English and Spanish — perfect for international travelers.
  • Great for everyone — whether you're a solo traveler, a couple, or a family, this tour is the perfect pace and size.
  • Three walking tours included — actually step out and explore:
  • South Beach Walking Tour, including the iconic Versace Mansion
  • Wynwood Walls Walking Tour — street art, murals, and creative culture
  • Little Havana Walking Tour — Cuban coffee, live music, and cultural flavor


  • Secret Miami Skyline Photo Stop — a special surprise to end the day with unforgettable views
  • Free bottled water for every guest
  • Free umbrellas for rain or shine
  • Two departures daily — 9:30 AM and 1:30 PM, 365 days a year
  • Much better than the Big Bus experience — because we focus on quality, not quantity


Unlike big bus city tours that pack 50+ people in and follow a rigid loop, our small group tour goes deeper — with real stories, photo-worthy stops, and a guide who adjusts to the group. It’s an immersive way to connect with Miami, its people, and its culture.

The Miami 3-in-1 City Tour – What’s Included


This isn’t just another city tour — this is the only small group Miami sightseeing tour that gives you everything in one unforgettable experience: a fully guided ride in brand-new transit buses, three walking tours, real beach access, exclusive access to Star Island, and skyline views that will leave you speechless. Over 3.5 hours, you’ll explore more of Miami than any other tour, with the personal attention and comfort only a small group tour can provide.

Here’s everything that’s included in your ticket:


🏝️ Tour Star Island by Bus


Before reaching South Beach, you’ll take a guided tour inside Star Island — one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in the world. This is something the big buses can't do. You'll see celebrity homes, million-dollar mansions, and stunning waterfront estates up close, all from the comfort of your air-conditioned small group bus. Your guide will share fun facts and stories about the rich and famous residents who call this island home.


🧭 1. South Beach Walking Tour


Next, step out for a guided walk through South Beach, Miami’s most iconic neighborhood. This walking tour includes a stop at the legendary Versace Mansion on Ocean Drive, along with art deco buildings, famous hotels, and hidden gems only a local would know.


🎨 2. Wynwood Walls Walking Tour


From South Beach, your group heads to Wynwood, Miami’s creative heart. This walking tour takes you through one of the world’s most famous street art districts. Your guide will explain the stories behind the murals, the artists, and the cultural impact of the Wynwood Walls.


🎶 3. Little Havana Walking Tour


No Miami tour is complete without Little Havana. This stop offers a cultural deep dive with music, art, and Cuban history. You’ll walk through Calle Ocho, visit Domino Park, and experience the sounds, smells, and sights that define this vibrant community.


🚌 Comfortable, Semi-Private Bus Tour


Throughout the day, you’ll ride in our brand-new black and white transit buses — stylish, clean, and fully air-conditioned. With only 13 guests per bus, this isn’t a loud, crowded ride — it’s a comfortable, relaxed journey led by a professional local guide who’s with you the entire way. Our small group size also allows us to go places big buses can’t — like Star Island and your beach stop.


🌴 Beach Access


Unlike other tours, you’ll actually get to walk on the beach, take your shoes off, and feel the ocean breeze. It’s a quick stop, but a meaningful one — because you came to Miami for the beach, right?


🌇 Secret Miami Skyline Photo Stop


To end the day, your guide will take you to one of Miami’s best-kept photo spots — with jaw-dropping views of the skyline. It's a quiet, hidden gem where you can snap that final memory of your city adventure.


💧 Free Perks for Every Guest

  • Free bottled water to stay cool
  • Free umbrellas for rain or shine
  • Bilingual guide in English and Spanish
  • Air-conditioned comfort from start to finish

Tips for First-Time Visitors in Miami


Visiting Miami for the first time? Whether you're here for sun, culture, or sightseeing, we’ve got you covered. Here are some essential tips to make the most of your time in the Magic City — and make your trip unforgettable:


☀️ 1. Dress for the Heat — But Bring Layers

Miami is warm year-round, but buildings (and buses!) crank up the AC. Wear breathable clothes, comfortable walking shoes, and bring a light layer for indoors or evening boat rides.


🧴 2. Don’t Skip the Sunscreen

Even on cloudy days, the Miami sun is intense. Apply sunscreen before your city tour, walking stops, or beach time — and reapply often.


🗺️ 3. Choose Smart Sightseeing Options

Skip the crowded, slow big-bus loops and go for small group Miami sightseeing tours like ours. With just 13 guests per ride, you’ll explore more, stop more, and actually connect with the city — from Star Island to South Beach.


📸 4. Always Have Your Camera Ready

Whether it’s the Versace Mansion, a colorful mural in Wynwood, or the skyline from our secret photo spot — Miami is packed with “wow” moments. Keep your phone charged and ready.


🚗 5. Plan Ahead for Parking

Downtown and beach areas get busy fast. Use parking garages near Bayside (where most tours depart) and allow extra time to park. Bonus: we allow luggage on our tour, so you can explore before or after your hotel check-in.


🕓 6. Book Your Tours Early

Many top-rated experiences — like our small group city tour or the Miami Sunset Cruise — sell out daily. Book early to lock in your spot, especially on weekends and holidays.


💬 7. Don’t Be Shy — Talk to Locals

Miami is a city of cultures. From Cuban café owners in Little Havana to your local tour guide, everyone has a story — and a tip worth hearing.


Whether you're staying for a weekend or a week, planning just a few smart moves will make your Miami visit 10x better.
