FESTIVALS & OUTDOOR EVENTS

It is well known that something happens to people when they venture to this latitude. In Miami even the most moderate sensibilities can come unhinged. Tourists have been coming to Miami Beach since the 1920s to escape from ordinary lives and to share the sand with millionaires, bathing beauties, movie stars and presidents. Today Ocean Drive is one of the most recognized streets in the world, as the pastel Art Deco hotels and sidewalk cafes have provided the backdrop for countless TV shows, movies, music videos, photo shoots, fashion magazines and famous faces. Come stroll along Ocean Drive with Gray Line Tours. Hear stories and see where it all happened and is still happening. You never know who you might bump into. This tour is created by Kevin Doran - a long-time Miami resident, certified heritage tour guide and president of the Professional Tour Guide Association of Florida. His enthusiasm for South Florida history is obvious as he carefully infuses this tour with documented gossip and anecdotal precision, respectful of a place built on fantasy.
