A great introduction to the Art Deco style of South Beach. Tour guide Damian is superb. He is an artist himself and a member of the local preservation society. You will leave better understanding the significance of the design elements of the art deco style. Damian also is very knowledgeable about culture and history. He also prepares a pocket sized map guide to key attractions in the area. It was very hot when we did the tour but the guide was considerate to bring us indoors and also provide cold water. I left with a greater appreciation for preservation.

Damian inspired us with his knowledge and historical background about the Art Deco buildings on Ocean Drive. It was super exciting and we learned a lot. We also went into buildings. Damian accompanied his remarks with many photos on an iPad. That was very helpful in understanding the context. The two hours passed quickly. We would definitely do this tour again.

I appreciate that — always rewarding when people connect with the stories and the streets at the same time.

Four of us joined this walking tour and found it absolutely fascinating—packed with history and little known backstories about Miami! Damien’s knowledge was impressive, and the use of a tablet helped us visualize and connect everything. Exploring Miami Beach on foot through its streets, lobbies, rooftops, and hidden corners—is by far the best way to dive into its rich past. Highly recommended!

You made my day brighter than a pastel blazer on Ocean Drive!

Damian was a fantastic tour guide! He provided a thorough introduction to Miami Beach and was ready with answers to all our questions. It was a blast learning about the city’s history, its one-of-a-kind architecture, and even some of his personal stories.
