A heartfelt tour of Art Deco in South Beach

Damian’s tour was outstanding!!! This was no ordinary tour because not only does Damian have a wealth of knowledge about Art Deco he puts his heart and soul into it. We loved how his real concern about preserving this important and stunning architecture in South Beach shined through.

Art Deco isn’t frozen in time. It’s still breathing. Thanks for feeling that.

Damian had a deep understanding of Miami’s history and its Art Deco architecture, and he shared plenty of visuals along the way. It was an excellent way to explore the city’s past and get a sense of how cities function.

Damian is a walking encyclopedia on all things Miami Beach. His tour is packed with fascinating stories and insights about the architecture, design, history, both past and present. With his speaker system, it’s easy to hear every word, even over city noise or from a distance. I would highly recommend this tour.
