Miami, Florida Overview

Miami is a tropical escape that feels like a journey to another country. Its strong Caribbean and Latin influences can be seen in everything from food to music, and miles of white-sand beaches stretch along the lush coastline. By day, historic charm attracts visitors to famous art-deco buildings, and at night, the modern style of hip clubs keeps crowds dancing until dawn.

While it has a reputation of being a playground for tanned socialites, aspiring models, and Hollywood A-listers, Miami offers affordable hotels and a great mix of cultural attractions for everyone. The city is bordered by 2 national parks - Everglades National Park and Biscayne National Park - and is also home to the world's largest cruise-ship port. Miami is a destination that's easy to fall in love with, and one that makes you feel worlds away from home.

To get a feel for the local flavor in Miami, consider a Miami City Tour, or hit the clubs for a night out, Miami-style. Soak up some culture with an exhibit at the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens or the Wolfsonian, or catch a show at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts. Athletic types will appreciate a round of golf in the balmy Miami weather, or the chance to be a spectator at a Dolphins game. And last but not least, soak up Miami's beautiful tropical surroundings - and the azure-blue Caribbean - on a Biscayne Bay Cruise or a Key West Day Trip.
