Vizcaya Museum & Gardens: what do users think?
Kenneth Johnson: Beautiful landscape, unique decor and tons of history packed into this place. Lots of art decor and history. The complimentary audio tour provides a great selection paced tool too explore this marvelous mansion. Tons of nooks and crannies to explore. The gardens are breathtaking and beautiful. Between the main building, the gazebo, and the gardens, there is no lack of photo opportunities. Spent hours exploring and enjoyed every minute.
gabi mckenzie: Very cool! I loved visiting. Beautiful home and gardens. Great info throughout with context on the lives of the family. Very busy and kind of pricey at $25 per ticket. There were a bunch of older people who didn’t get the concept of a digital ticket so that held up the line, we probably had to wait 20 minutes for a process that could have taken 5. Maybe fire signage or a separate line for those that need assistance? Also man, I got so sweaty exploring the gardens haha. More water fountains would have been appreciated but that might just be a me-thing. Inside the home was air conditioned which was nice, lots of places to sit and appreciate the architecture. It was very busy when I visited so we had to wait to read some info or see in to some rooms. We went on Sunday and we’re there around 11 so definitely prime time for this experience.
Malva Bee: It's worth every penny!- Ticket was $25, and you can only buy them online. The villa was built in the 1920s and was a technologically advanced house for that era. The architecture is from the Italian renaissance period with a modern touch. Exquisitely preserved and very impressive, this residence was established with the primary goal of entertaining guests. Beautiful architecture and interior with amazingly well-preserved furniture, tapestries, and murals. The gardens are stunning and magnificently maintained. Morning is the best time to go; there are fewer people in the morning, so I recommend planning for the morning on a week day to avoid crow. Manatees were around the docks! We didn't do the audio tour; the information on the placards is good enough to tell the history of its construction and some environmental factors that threaten it today! There's a cafe shop on site, and the food is okay. The walk through the gardens is pretty level, with occasional stairs. A dream place for photographers, art and architecture lovers, and history buffs. The villa has featured in several movies and is also a top wedding destination. Expect to spend around 1.5 to 2 hours fully exploring the mansion and gardens. The Museum closes around 4.30 pm.
Maya Bach: As someone who loves architecture, I have been wanting to come here for a while and this place did not disappoint. Lovely outdoor gardens scattered with truly unique structures set against the waterfront. I loved the small maze garden we came across and the fountain with tiny lily pads. Its obvious great care was taken to create and maintain this historic site. We went around 10:30 a.m. and it got hot pretty quickly so the coolness of the home was welcome. Also delightful to see how well-preserved the place is and to learn about the story behind it. Felt very COVID-safe walking in larger open spaces. We didn't opt for the guided tour but probably would do next time we visit. Would be hard to tour and view the whole space on just one visit. And wear comfortable walking shoes, a hat, sunglasses. and sunscreen. Worth a visit if you're visiting Miami for a long weekend.
Cassandra Peronel: This place gets 5 stars without question. The tickets are purchased online and only $25. Something to do for the day that’s inexpensive, learn history and take plenty of memorable photos. You have access to the mansion and the garden of this visit. I say you may need to take out minimum 4 hours of your time to see everything this place has to offer. I went on a hot day and walking through the garden was torture. Thank goodness I brought my small umbrella. I took over 100 pics that day, LOL! Definitely going back with a larger group of friends!
Dragana Nikolic: Such an interesting place to visit! Really reminds me of some of the gardens you'd see in Europe. The history was fascinating and the grounds are beautiful. I recommend checking it out! You do have to buy tickets online now & wear a mask inside the mansion.
Anneken Me: It is beautiful. You really get a feeling of how they lived back then. So many wonderful details like the ceilings. The gardens are organized but yet so wild. I saw so many different types of lizards running around plus a raccoon and a duck. At least I think it was a duck. Also, very importantly, the visitors bathroom was very comfortable and clean. A big plus!
David Brim: The number one place to come and visit in Miami. It’s an oasis of beauty and nature in Miami. Buoy at the turn of the last century, Vizcaya is a true architectural and artistic gem. Italianate villa build in the Miami Everglades when Miami only had 10,000 residents. The museum is well cared for and is stunning. We’ll worth a visit. Parking is easy and you simply buy your tickets online prior to entering.
Shima: Literally my favorite favorite place in Miami! Such an amazing mansion, with great water view and great indoor and outdoor architecture! I just loved the garden and all the beautiful details of it. This place looked like a heaven I would love to live an eternity in!!! There were many brides and many influencer taking pictures there and I, with my rock themed clothes, was so sad that I wasn't wearing anything fancy to be more picture worthy for this place! I will go back with lots of make up and a fancy dress. Moral of story, WEAR FANCY clothes to this place, you won't regret it!
Alberto Nicanor Rosario Mendez: The whole place is really interesting. Is fun to imagine those times when someone will arrive to a place and say "yeah, I'll build an insane mansion here; makes sense to me". I will say this is one of those place that you need to love history and such to enjoy it. I think I'm the only one of my friends and family that has ever been to this place as everyone goes to Miami for 1000 more reasons than to see this museum. Still, if you have the chance, give it some love. Just know what you're getting into

Jungle Island: what do users think?
Renee Benaim: Attended the Candlelight concert series here. Pop on Strings. An amazing, romantic evening! Very organized event. Parking was $20 and right next to the Bloom Ballroom where the event took place. Food and drink are available. You order and pay on your phone and items are brought to your seat. Seating is separated for social distancing.
Robert Maviglia: Enjoyed tonight's show, Candlelight Series, A Tribute to Queen. The performance was great. Freddie Mercury could not have imagined how prolific his talent could have become. Queen lives on. Tonight's artists were outstanding!
Samuel: attended a ballroom dinner fundraiser 2/7/22. one of the most elegant spaces I've ever seen
Yaniv Feldman: This place holds the most luxurious events. It's fun filming them with our crew, every single time. The staff is very accommodating and the facility is very versatile. Highly recommended.
David Shusterman: This is a good place for a drink at the beach. We just rain is with lifeguard station. This is a nice bar area in a very Caribbean table well. The dress very good though I didn’t eat any food there.
Kay Logan: LOVVVEEE THIS PLACE! This place is a combination of an aquarium , planetarium and a museum! There is also a huge beautiful rain forest exhibit as well where you can see exotic butterflies. It's a great place to check out if you are in Norcal! I highly recommend this place to anyone of all ages. It takes about 3 to 4 hours to see everything and they close at 5PM so plan accordingly. If you have student ID, you will save some money :) When you arrive make sure to get a Planetarium Show ticket in the back with purple signs. It's a great place to take a nap with blasting AC.
Emilio Olan: I came for a tribute to Queen by Candlelight concerts. Done by Liteso string quartet. The venue was presented by fever. They have an app and you can find their information online too. The venue offer beer and liquor and assorted healthy and not so healthy snacks. The ambiance and environment was relax and pleasant. I would recommend whole hearted any events presented here at Jungle Island Events and any fever event.
Daniel Volodarsky: It was alright, nothing super exciting or significant. Definitely not worth the full price, even for kids. The only attractive features are the kangaroo walkabout, the petting area and the shows. We went and the kangaroo walkabout wasn't even open so we missed that part. Overall not bad but not great either.
Zlatko Unger: $50 for a ticket and half of the place is under construction or closed? It's like a cool night club that happens to be a letting zoo during the day. Also, half the staff is friendly and nice, and the other half are sick if their job.and don't want to be helpful.
Alicia Ostenson: I think this a great place to take kids. Did not partake in the theme park portion, more just the animal portion. It was still interesting as a few adults, as the vibrant amount of plants are very pretty and the amount of birds they have is quite grand. Did as part of the Miami go pass, which was definitely worth it. Saw a bird show, which was also great.

Wynwood Walls: what do users think?
Charlie C. (charliejcao): Great experience! I spent some time in here, and I feel all creation are phenomenal. We’re glad that I was here to see them myself. PS: If you are a student, the price is $5. I forgot bringing my student ID, but the lady was very nice. She asked me if I have some email messages to show her I’m a student then it is totally fine. Recommend people come here, especially a tourist like me.
Eric Cox: Great exhibit! Student discounts available and a even without the discount it is worth the cost of admission. The staff and even all of the patrons were very nice and created a great atmosphere to get the photos we wanted. Definitely worth putting on your list of things to do in Miami.
Whitney Brown: Wynwood Walls is such a great place to visit. At just $12 per person you can experience various artists amazing work around the area. It's definitely worth the visit. I had so much fun and the best part is you get to take unlimited pictures around all of the amazing artwork that you get to see. If you want to up your photo game come with props to make the pic even better. Don't forget to check out the indoor artwork within the building as well as the shops on your way out. Looking forward to visiting again.
John Ovesen: About $12 a person & only card (no cash) to buy yourself a ticket before entering. There's a few pieces worth taking a picture with that totally merits the entrance fee. My review is also for the surrounding streets (about 10 to 15 blocks) where even the local shops & eateries are worth getting lost for a few hours just taking photos of all the beautiful art in the Wynwood area. Why stay in South Beach? I booked an AirBNB in the Wynwood Area and LOVED being in a more quiet and colorful area at night. What else can I say but the ART itself and seeing photos of them will you sell you on visiting Wynwood Walls but also the area of Miami itself! I found the area to be very safe at night also walking around.
David Dorjath: Absolutely loved our visit in December to the Wynwood Walls “art installment” in Miami. You simply cannot go wrong taking a visit. So many wonderful pieces of art on display. Quite frankly most of it graffiti art that is simply breathtaking! My wife and I saw this in a tourist posting and thought why not stop by. Wow were we glad that we did. I sure hope that this place continues to get good press and strong attendance, as public art is so needed by all! Please stop by and visit if you get the chance. Not only is the exhibit wonderful, but the neighborhood is loaded with lots of great unique restaurants and shops to explore as well. It is worth spending a number of hours there for sure. We will definitely be back when next in the Miami area!
Jeremy “JerBear”: Very cool exhibits and I'm told they change every month or few weeks which is very cool to keep things fresh. I'm a student and when I paid for my ticket they didn't check or ask for proof so anyone can get the student rate. The gift shop is really cool too I wound up buying a Tweety bird that is super cool. I was visiting from L.A. and would frequent this place if I was a Miami resident. I like how they converted what looked like a pretty ghetto area and turned it into a popping and fresh spot.
Alex Alex: For $12 this is totally a worth experience! It's beautifully organized and the art is magnificent. There are a lot of employees on site to help you out with questions or pretty much anything. They have art for sale and also a gift shop. And there is a stand with ice cream and water for those hot Miami days. There multiple exhibits to see in different indoor spaces as well. And there is also an area where you can spray paint!! It's a must visit!
Rahul Sharda: Visitsd the Wynwood Walls art exhibit/instalment in mid-May with a few friends. Great experience, so many beautiful pieces of art on display. A lot of fun, great opportunity to take pictures as well as get your picture taken in-front of the difference pieces of art. There’s also indoor portions as you walk through the area. The walls are also in walking distance from a lot of different restaurants/bars and small shops. Definitely recommend checking it out if you’re visiting Miami!
Nidhi Shetty: Absolutely stunning graffiti art. Went late in the evening both times, so didn't go inside. But strolled around for a while admiring graffiti in the area. Follow general caution as a tourist; you could come across the occasional oddball and people under the influence.
Malay Patel: Always a fun experience! We used to just stop by and visit randomly, it was nice to sit around and look at the new paintings and graffiti. They unfortunately started charging an entrance fee, but still enjoyable.

Miami Seaquarium: what do users think?
Rene' Simon: This is a nice little park that will take a half day to experience. Don't come expecting sea world as it's an older establishment but it is well worth a trip if you need to entertain children. We did the dolphin experience and my teenage kids loved it, one even said it was the best part of the entire week!! It is a bit pricey but the memories are what you come here for.
David Magee: Visited on Saturday, May 14, 2022. The “shows” are geared towards kids primarily but fun to see as adults. The park seems a bit run down. Bathrooms we’re in good shape. It was not near as busy as we expected it to be. We arrived at open and left after 5 hours. Great walking. Easy to follow their maps. FLIPPER was neat. Top Deck Dolphin show was great. Sea Lion show very entertaining. Too much talking in each show. Not enough tricks and flips. A nice day in the sun and they do not really gouge you here in the pricing of trinkets, but it is expensive as most attractions are.
Response: Hello, we appreciate your positive feedback about your experience. We are so thrilled that you enjoyed your time with us and look forward to seeing you again soon!
Luis Felipe Rios: The dolphin show was extraordinary. They got two shows in different parts of the aquarium and it was simply amazing. I’ve never seen such an amazing dolphin show. The other spectacles were great too, the seals and sea lions had a great one too. The only thing I didn’t like was the habitat for the penguins. They looked terribly sad in a small place. I wasn’t able to see the whale but hopefully I’ll be back later this year to see it. And I also hope the penguins get a better place.
Christerpher Hunter: Some of the exhibitions we're closed. It seemed the place was all about the dolphins with a side of sea lions, manatees, turtles, stingrays, and sharks. The park is small. Could walk the entire thing is less than 30 minutes. Daughter still enjoyed herself (4.5 yrs old). Will not be returning until she is at least 10 yrs old. Minimum to swim with dolphins or feed sea lion while in the pool with them.
Response: Hi, Thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review of your experience.
Tahsin Tahmid: Has lots of varieties of sea animals and birds. The shows are enjoyable. The animal show time when we went were: 11am (The Dolphin show) -12pm (Sea Lion) -1pm (Flipper show *Best*). 2hrs is more than enough to explore the entire Seaquarium
Hadi Karanouh: Honestly not worth the 50$ at all Highly disappointing experience , many shows were not available , the place is really old and in urgent need of a renovation. We went to many other aquariums abroad and locally and they were all cheaper and better. However truth be told the staff are really friendly and helpful and i admired that about them.
Tibor Szekely: The animals are nice to see. That in itself is an experience. Disappointed with the service relating to dolphin show. Their camera "malfunctioned" and we only got limited amount of pics from the end of the dolphin interaction. Flew here from Canada, spent $700 for my kids to interact with the dolphins. Would have liked the cameras to be working. They gave me a free print out of a pic that worked for compensation. Mixed experience.
Response: Hello Tibor, Allow us to take a closer look at this for you. Please contact us at guestservices@msq.cc with your information so we're able to best assist you. Thank you.
Chance Lambert: Very very disappointing. Only about a half hour worth of animals to see, and the best thing was their birds surprisingly. A lot closed at this point, might be slightly better in the future. Just too small altogether though.
Response: Hello, We are sorry that you are disappointed but appreciate your feedback. We are committed to providing you with a great experience and hope you give us another chance in the future.
Maria Torres: The place is nice , but I was disappointed. My kids and I were expecting to see Lolita , the map shows the big killer Wale so we were exited for the experience But when we were there we were told it was up for renovations. 😏 Then don’t advertise it. And the price is high for the shows we see there . Also the Sea lion show was kind of boring the speaker was bad you couldn’t hear what they were saying. And the shows are very short. Food is very expensive also.
Mary F. Samara - Magermans: Considering the situation with covid y'all need to install more places to wash your hands around the park The flipper show was OK NO killer whale show, and it was the main reason we chose to visit this place. The food overpriced and low quality. And the ticket prices are way too expensive $210 for 2 Adults & 2 kids, bought online for $178 which I still think is too expensive. Felt sorry for the manatees in such a small pool.

Bayfront Park: what do users think?
Willie Zackary: Great place for outdoors recreation! Being your bikes, strollers and sport shoes! You can forget you are in a big city for a moment. Is a place to feel the fresh breeze and enjoy the nature. We love to bring our family here, there is parking and also is pet friendly.
Jeff: Beautiful open space with a waterfront promenade. There’s a kids playground so you can sit and take a breather while the kids can burn of some craziness. It’s surrounded by sky scrapers but it feels like you’re out of the city if you’re facing the water. Perfect place to take a break with or without kids.
Dr. Tachi: Great venue for outdoor concerts! We had a great time at the D-Nice presents Club Quarantine. And the staff was very friendly and welcoming!
Angela Davis: Not a whole lot to see, but a nice green space that can be connected to other spots along the water heading north! A Christmas tree was set up when we visited, and the fountain turned off, but it was a nice area.
Jack Kaz (HyeProfile): Simply the perfect venue for Ultra Music Festival. The ocean views, the towering skyscrapers of downtown, the ideal climate... Bayfront has it all...
Justin Johnson: Bayfront park in Miami was awesome. I’ve always stayed in south beach and staying near here wasby A good take and good time and I can’t wait to go back.
Antonio Munroe: Honestly just went far a quick stroll around the park with my girlfriend before the miami heat game to catch the scenery. I wouldn't say it's a very big park cause we kind of went around it in like ten minutes but it is a pretty cool place to hang out if your into picnics and outdoors. The ocean very is very beautiful as well. A great spot to do photography and art
Utkrisht Shah: The boat tour starts from here. There is also a Ferris wheel where you can enjoy lots of scenic stuffs like top of hard-rock guitar and the sea. The palm trees and coconut trees gives you the vibes of the Caribbean.
Sandra Olabode: The boat tour is so enjoyable. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and spoke clearly in English and Spanish were every one could understand. The mansions of the stars were beautiful. It is a very nice tour and worth the ride. Also great drinks from the bartender.
Mountain Kat: Not bad for a tourist attraction. Lots of shops and vendors. I wouldn't recommend coming with a tour group but definitely nice to check out on your own.

Martha Reyes: Had a wonderful day at the museum. I would recommend it for families with kids is very kid friendly and they have a lot hands on activities for the little ones. The shows are worth it, if you can go to all of them 100% recommend, my suggestion is sit somewhere in the middle to get the best view. One of the highlights for me was the Sherlock Holmes experience they currently have, is very interactive and hands on, complete the challenges to solve the mystery. Overall would recommend, it was a beautiful day, I would say set aside 4 to 5 hours of your day to explore and spend the day there so you can see all they have to offer and don't worry it seems like a long time but time flies when you are learning and having fun.
Response: Thank you for visiting! We are so glad you had a wonderful time. We hope to see you again in October for our new exhibition, Ultimate Dinosaurs.
G J: Lovely science museum covering marine life, astronomy, human physiology and rocket science! Their planetarium is one of the best I have seen in the recent years. Extensive exhibition of marine life including stingrays, hammer head sharks, fishes and corals is the main attraction here. Ice age exhibits, rocket science exhibits and Me labs provides lot of insights for the young adults and grownups! A must visit place for all aspiring scientists! The observation deck and solar spot at the top floor and food joints within the building are plus points!
Response: Thank you for your visit and supporting the museum!
Maria Briggs: Amazing place! My 9 year old son and I spent almost 5 hours there and were really impressed by a lot of exhibits. There is an aquarium, all sorts of informational and interesting things to do. The movie with a dome screen was amazing!!! Even cafeteria lunch was great as it included really healthy options too with grilled salmon, brown rice, fresh avocado and very reasonably priced! ))). Definitely would recommend.
Response: Thank you for visiting!
Hello Goodbye: Absolutely beautiful. It's regularly changing and I've gone about 4 times and every time is better than the last. There are lots of animals, interactive games (suitable for all ages,) and plenty of super informative plaques to read and learn from. From May-September there is a Sherlock Holmes exhibit which was absolutely incredible. Would recommend for tourists and residents of South Florida.
Response: Thank you for visiting!!
Alberto Nicanor Rosario Mendez: Fantastic place without a doubt. All floors have something amazing to look at. Special mention to the jellyfishes and the open spaces on the top floor where you're really close to birds and fishes. It's a total delight Also, be sure to go to the roof for some amazing views. Totally recommended
Response: Thank you for visiting! We hope to see you again soon.
Yakup Content AI Manager: Such a wonderful place to visit with your family ! Even if your not much interested in science this place gives adults and children wonderful ways to interact and think about science ! It is definitely a must go place in Miami and worth every penny! You have so many different topics like health, space and nature! The only thing that was annoying sometimes were the big groups that visited also the museum; but we went there on a Friday, so maybe during the week it is more relaxed. Still worth visiting the place !
Response: Thank you for visiting!
Diana Lee: This is such an amazing place to visit. The exhibits are extremely interesting and up to date. The museum itself is extremely clean and for a Mom during the Covid-19 pandemic that's really important. We stayed for 6 hours and I don't think we saw everything. Definitely plan to stay all day. Also, don't skip the Planetarium, it is amazing.
Response: Thank you for visiting!
Gustavo Rozo: Awesome experience for my son. He enjoyed everything. Went during the week in summer figured it would be best to avoid the weekend traffic. There was some summer camps there but it was great. The Sherlock Holmes Exhibit was also very interesting. My son wants to come back
Response: Thank you for visiting! We definitely invite you to come back and experience our Ultimate Dinosaurs exhibition opening in October.
Boss Battle: We stopped here to kill time before boarding a flight. We were pleasantly surprised! The staff were all very nice and they even checked our big luggage while we walked through. I absolutely loved all the aquariums. The second level with the giant glass window is absolutely awe inspiring. There was really a nice variety of fish and other wildlife to see. The teeny tiny owls were an absolute highlight! The plantarim was amazing! I loved the show we watched and the projection was spot on perfect. Really wow'd us! Although I liked the openness of the building, I didn't feel like the museum flowed well. We were often hopping back and forth between buildings. I also felt like a LOT of the interactive exhibits were not working. I'm talking like, 70% non-functional, which is really a bummer. I'd absolutely recommend visiting but I think the almost $30/person we paid was a little much considering how much was broken/non-working.
Response: Thank you for the feedback and we are glad you enjoyed your visit! Some of the more interactive features of our exhibitions do require regular repair and maintenance which is ongoing as they are used 365 days a year, however we do apologize for any inconvenience experienced during your visit.
Jake F-Y: Very cool museum covering a wide variety of interests! The highlight for us was all the live animal offerings, which impressed us in variety and scope (shark tank is a must from multiple angles!). This topped with all the other interactive components left things engaging for all ages. Well worth an afternoon

Freedom Tower at Miami Dade College: what do users think?
Your Helpful Wendy: I went for work to this place and it was simply amazing. First of all I love the idea that they had a parking next to this building for all of us that went to the event. Because that night there was a Miami Heat game and you can only imagine the amount of people and craziness going on on downtown. This building had a grade venue place for the event and we all had a wonderful time. The service was excellent and even though there were a lot of people I didn’t feel over packed.
Alexis Rodriguez: Excellent place with lots of history even when it was closed for renovations you can still visit the outside and reflect on the importance of this building for the history of Miami and Cuba
Me.Truth: The flag is upside down 🤷🏻♂️ I see it like this second time already. Please fix it 😆
Theodhor Sina: I think they should add more memorabilia from the times the Cuban refugees entered the Freedom Tower for their paperwork. The inside of the building is way too empty. I love the cleanliness though. Not worth the money if you pay full priced tickets in my opinion.
W: Not to be missed! Learn about the Tower's interesting history; very knowledgeable lady at the desk!👍Great presentation of the Cuban immigration history gives you a feel and transparency of the vibe of Miami which is so much Cuban to me. Learn about the waves of children from Cuba who arrived here and see how they had to adapt. The second floor is part modern art and part presentation to raise environmental awareness. Unfortunately the tower is not open to the public! Imagine standing on top and view the city from there! Maybe the city will open the tower in the near future; it would be certainly an asset and magnet for the tourists! Think about it city council!
C N: The building itself is beautiful. I wish visitors were allowed to go to the top. The exhibit about Cuban immigration is interesting but a little bare. I really enjoyed the exhibit about European exploration in the new world. The contemporary art exhibit on the 2nd floor was a little strange.
Tomas David Alvarez: The staff is very welcoming and friendly. They have Cuban history exhibits as well as Latin American colonial exhibits. On the rest of the floors they have art exhibits that are very well done... sometimes even better than those at PAM. Se los recomiendo muchísimo. Es muy barata la entrada, y lo que tienen en muestra esta muy bonito y organizado.
MILKOS D SOSA: The freedom tower is an icon of the city and a symbol of freedom and democracy for cuban refugees. This building was the gateway for a new population that would transform Miami from a southern resort town into an international metropolis. The tower has witnessed numerous historical moments, among them, the funeral of the beloved Celia Cruz. This is, without a doubt, a must see in Miami.
Steven Brier: Tonight there's an iconic architecture show Beautiful collection of Cuban art and much more Definitely worth a visit
José Alberto González Cáceres: As an emblem of freedom for the world and especially for the Latin American, in the heart of the Cuban exile, it symbolizes the hope of every human being for a dignified life. God Bless America!

Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park: what do users think?
Gary Meech: We weren't able to walk all the paths but for the little we were able to see and do, it is well worth a 2 dollar per pedestrian entry. Beaches here are some of the best in this area! The old light house is well taken care of and the light house cafe was small but friendly with some basic lunch fare such as sandwiches and salads. The black bean soup is my recommendation.
Maria Andrews: This state park has a very nice beach that’s perfect for small kids, as it’s fairly shallow. Gorgeous views from the fishing side of the park. It has picnic areas, a fishing pier, and even a birding trail. Be warned, April-October, large amounts of sargassum seaweed make it to the shore and can be a bit stinky when it decomposes. As of June 2022, it’s $8 per car for entry.
Esther F.: Nice and peaceful park. They have bike rentals at the parking lot, including the fun surrey/quad bikes for the family. No lack of walking and nature trails, tons of iguanas, historic lighthouse, and plenty of picnic space. The beach is super nice as well. Would recommend bringing cash as the bike place doesn't accept cards and sometimes the machine in the park entry booths doesn't work as well. Great for families and couples
Ilse Orsel: Beautiful park, close to Miami. You can enjoy walking or cycling here. Bicycles can be rented in the park. The beaches are beautiful. On the beach you can rent sunbeds and umbrellas for a relatively low price. It is cheaper here than on the other beaches near Miami. The beach is flanked by an iconic lighthouse.
Cale O'Day: The park is really quite pretty, but we were clearly not the only people that seemed to think that. There were so many other people there. But most of them were congregated in the west beach, so if you leave there it can be very nice
Janeth Betancourth: Awesome!! Best beaches in a regional park. Showers and restrooms. Parking. There's also a Café and a pretty good restaurant. And climbing the 110 stairs up to the top of the lighthouse: Priceless!
Jennifer Groff: This park was fun to walk all around on the pathways and trails. Loved all the history and learning about why it was named after someone who was a WWII Veteran and a local man from the area. The lighthouse area was very cool as well even on a day when no tours are available to do. No tours on Tuesday and Wednesday.
K K: such a great park. several different bike trails and walking paths. love the pavilions and beach access. bike rentals are also available. the lighthouse tour is a must if you get the chance. alot of history to take in. a few restaurants inside the park are also very nice. great fishing too. either from the piers or the walls. if you are lucky you may even see a manatee. it's a great place to pack a backpack and spend the day.
Avijit Nayek: Great place to enjoy nature. You take a bath in the ocean, enjoy natural beauty. Here you can get bike rentals too. There are some great eating options. We enjoyed sun set from here.
Jen: Loved this park where it is located near Miami. Enjoyed the day walking around and exploring for the first time and the price for entrance for one person was only $4. Loved all the history and learning why it is called after a man who was a WWII Veteran. He was also a local man from the area to make sure the land was preserved instead turned into more condominiums.

Miami Children's Museum: what do users think?
Brittany Ammer: Incredible museum! My husband and I brought our 4 year old for her birthday and she LOVED it. We had the best time. There is so much to do! There are so many hands on experiences for kids here, and she had the best time. There is a bank, veterinarian office, cruise ship, grocery store, construction/building area, music, arts, I can't think of anything they didn't have. This is by far the most interactive children's museum we have ever been too.
Karen Di Lauro: We went to the Miami children's museum on a busy Saturday, It was very crowded and unenjoyable. There are multiple families attempting to allow their children to play in the small rooms. This normally wouldn't be an issue but due to Covid guidelines, people were not standing 6 ft apart but were instead forced to stand shoulder to shoulder with each other . Another issue that I had, was that children were left unattended and allowed to roam around the museum by themselves. This rule does not seem to be strictly enforced by the employees. In fact, I only saw a few employees walking around the museum during my two hours there; which I found to be odd. I also found it surprising that parents allowed their children to behave inappropriately and snatch toys from other children. Unfortunately, this occurred multiple times during our visit. Some parents were so focused on their phones that they did not adequately supervise their children. Other parents were so focused on getting the perfect picture of their child that they would physically block children from entering certain attractions (picture attached below). We also visited the museum on a Tuesday morning and it was a vastly different experience. The place was clean and you could actually enjoy each of the playrooms. It was not as busy/crowded. For the most part, the families that were present were attentive to other children. I would recommend visiting the museum on a weekday morning if possible. I would never recommend visiting this museum on a weekend.
Brian Campbell: This museum is great for the younger kids. Lots of hands on activities to explore. The best part for us was the quiet room, when our sensory sensitive child became overwhelmed with the chaos and noise, it was a great place to relax. I highly encourage all parents to please understand this room is here for a reason. Please don’t let your children run in and start screaming at the lights and bubbles as it defeats the purpose of the room. In the 10 minutes we sat in the room we had no less than 5 kids come in screaming because they thought it was cool. We probably could have been relaxed after 3 minutes if that hadn’t happened.
Response: Hi Brian, thanks for the feedback. Please click this link for more information on Sensory Saturdays https://www.miamichildrensmuseum.org/sensory-friendly-saturdays
William Orozco: Kids paradise in Miami. It was easy to follow, very entertaining for children. I would say toddlers would love this but older kids too as I saw many there. Even parents will enjoy it because theres a lot to see and do. Worth the 12 dollars I think we paid per adult.
Mike Yarnott: This is basically a massive play area disguised as a museum. It's great place to bring kids from all ages, but its definitely geared towards younger kids. Definitely a great place to visit if the weather is less than ideal!
Response: Thank you Mike for your review!
Amit Gupta: Love the multiple levels and plenty of options for kids for different age ranges. My kids really liked the ocean wall where you can scan your name on a colored fish, that swims around the wall. Exercise machines, supermarket, fishing, and sensory room for little kids, was also a hit. I especially liked their cruise ship exhibit. Parking is $2/hour. The only part I didn’t like was that they only have two hour blocks. Unless you time it perfectly, you’re going to be there 1-1.5 hours only at a time. They need to have at least 3 hour blocks. Family membership was reasonable at around $150.
Galina Niyazov: Very interactive museum for children 2 -7years old. Can easily spend 2-3 hours here. Food here only subway sandwiches. Tickets are $16 for 1 year and up for Florida residents and $24 for non Florida residents. Everything is clean and staff is friendly
Suzette Larson: Wasn’t sure it would be worth it but it really is. Best for younger kids.The 2-hour window to visit is just not enough and we will definitely be back. There is so much to do like grocery shop, play with blocks and simple machines, fire truck and pretend to be a veterinarian! My kids loved it!
SHANEL A: Great place for the kiddos! Lots of exhibits ..from health/fitness, music, water related , dr. Seus, Ninja turtles and more! Free the 1st wknd of the month for Bank of America card holders, 2nd wknd of the month is sensory- free in the morning for children on the spectrum. Definately worth the trip, the kids will sleep well after tiring from this interactive musuem!
Nadia Nour: Two hours is not enough to cover all of it. My kid was a little too young to understand a lot of things (18m), but still enjoying it a lot. We will come back when he is older.

Pérez Art Museum Miami: what do users think?
Silvana: It's free admission the first Saturday of every month. It's two floors, elevator access. The have a Andy Warhol excibit which is cool plus much more art. The have an indoor/outdoor cafe with beautiful view of the ocean. You can walk the outside grounds and enjoy the ocean view and take pics of sculptures. It's a good family fun time. You can eat at the cafe or bring your own picnic. One thing I always look for in public places is a clean bathroom and theirs was super clean. Highly Recommend
Manuel Hernandez (Manny): The museum has a very special permanent collection that is primarily focus on modern art work. The exhibition spaces are very roomy with plenty of space to sit and contemplate the pieces on the walls. The only thing I did not love is that the visit felt short, almost as if there were not that many things to see.
Les Schwartz: I would like to give it 3.5 stars because although the content (art) of the museum was impressive, the size of the building revealed little art. Two floors with art very spread out. There was a section closed off that won't be open until April 15th. Nonetheless you be in and out in 1hr. I expected more. The cost without discounts could be considered not a value. But some of the pieces were very impressive. The location right off the bay, gov't. cut, boats (ships), bridge, etc. makes it a worthwhile trip. Building and grounds impressive. It's right next to Frost Museum (don't miss that). The museum has a cafe and bookstore. Parking flat fee $15. Not crowded which I liked the most. Masks and social distancing encouraged.
gloria lai: I love this museum although I didn't get to go inside as the day I went was a Tuesday, it wasn't open. I got to enjoy the art pieces outside which made me very happy. I got some good photos for Instagram. Great place for photos!
Vanina Gramatikova: Found the museum very interesting and beautiful. A lot of the artwork requires you to read the description since the art, at first glance, might seem a little uninspiring at first. Gave it 4 stars because the workers there were very rude. Followed me and my boyfriend around as we looked at the art and told us not to touch the artwork even though we weren’t. The experience could’ve been more inviting because of the employees but overall if you come here for the artwork you will have a good time
Oleg Osypchuk: Nice museum of modern and contemporary art. Colorful exhibits looking great for taking pictures and relaxing in general. You can also take a nice walk afterwards in the park 😉
Joshua Yancey: The building is beautiful on the outside, pretty average on the inside in my opinion. The art/Exhibit that they had are very good, but unless you are slow as a turtle — You shouldn’t be here even longer than maybe 40 minutes. Pretty unacceptable for a building this big. Style over substance strikes Miami again. Since my wife and I don’t have Membership to the museum. General admission is $16 per ticket. A bit much in my view, seeing as you’ll have to pay about $10 dollars minimum for parking. Go once and maybe comeback once a year after that…🤷🏾♂️
Naomi Sprung: I brought my 12th grade class to Perez Museum and it was a fabulous, informative and inspiring trip! The students were so engaged In Everything that Lori, our guide, taught us. She helped the students think out of the box, and got all of us to view art in a more open, intellectual and gut moving way! The art is powerful and placed in an environment that enhances the sculptures and paintings and photographs and allows the works to breathe. Very impactful! We are scheduling a return trip! A MUST SEE!
Yari Tejeda: Went to this museum with my sister for my bday weekend n we loved it. Was very eccentric. A nice place to check out while in the area.
Jason Lin: More than 15 galleries. Good balance of artwork of various mediums and styles. Refreshing art quality and curation. The staff here is helpful. The area around the museum is also beautiful. Well worth a stroll or meal at the cafe. Part of Bank of America first weekend of the month.

Monkey Jungle: what do users think?
anthony bonfim: I love 🐒 and want to feed them and interact with them; they jump on, you eat the food of the tray you are given. It was so fun and thrilling. There is so much to this park monkey jungle that I and my gf really felt we didn't get the money worth it. ( $$150 per person) We did but didn't. I would have liked to take my time with the experience look at all the different species there and trees; they were beautiful. They have a chocolate tree. We had a great time , nothing like having monkeys jumping on you off a tree. Carlos is a great tour guide .
K. Farrell: When I tell you that this stop was the highlight of my day trip to Miami!! I am so glad that I stumbled upon it while searching for things to do in the city. I called the Monkey Jungle on Wednesday morning 01/5/2022 during our drive from Palm Beach to Miami. I was advised that we could sign up for the 2:30 pm tour and that we needed to arrive by 2:15pm to complete paper work and pay the fee. We arrived around 1:30pm. We were greeted by Steve (The director). He was very personable and chatted with us about the business. He also asked a staff to escort us to the restroom that was located on the property. He suggested that we go grab a bite to eat and return around 2:15pm. Upon our return we were the only patrons. We paid the entry fee that totals $160.50 with taxes and signed a waiver form. Another group of 2 arrived shortly after. The tour commenced about 10 minutes after the noted start time of 2:30pm. Our guide was Will and he was AWESOME!! He was knowledgeable, personable and just had a great energy!! Most importantly he had a great sense of humor. He is the kind of person you wished was your friend!! Will advised us that his goal was for us to have a great time and his only ask from us was to be safe and to keep the animals safe. To keep the monkeys safe we had to ensure that we wear our mask properly for the duration of our time at the Monkey Jungle. Will provided great information about the various types of monkeys on site as well as history on how the company was started. Following the informational session of the tour we were provided an opportunity to feed the monkeys. This first encounter was us placing food (dried fruit) in a dish and watching the monkeys use a chain to pull the food to themselves. This activity shows the intellect of the monkeys. It was interesting to see how the monkeys that have a higher rank skipped over the raisins! Will said they basically think raisins are for the lower ranking monkeys!! The main event is going into the rainforest. This is where the squirrel monkeys reside and where we interact with them face to face. Will showed us the best way to get the monkeys to come to us. His visual example was on point. Once we were given a tray and food was placed on it the monkeys were ready to eat!!! We had so much fun feeding the monkeys and taking some cute pictures and videos. This experience is pricey, however, I think it is well worth the cost for special occasions. It is clear that the employees love what they do. The great customer service and entertainment of the monkeys makes it all worthwhile!! My only wish is that it lasts a little longer!!
Alec Dierna: Had the best time at monkey jungle! We had been wanting to go for a long time & finally got around to it! so worth every penny! Our tour guide Chris was awesome! Definitely will be going back!
Stephanie Owitz: We loved every minute of our time at Monkey Jungle. Yes, it’s expensive, but we were celebrating a special occasion and it felt worth every penny for the educational and intimate, up close experience with the monkeys. The natural habitat is just beautiful and the guides were friendly and knowledgeable. A+++ experience.
James bartruff: Great place, super friendly staff, you get to feed the little monkeys. Bringing the whole family back later this year. Will plan a visit back as well once they reopen the whole park.
Lisa Bailey: We had a great time. It is pretty pricey, but I mean how many times in life do you have monkeys jumping all over you? Also be warned, they have fire ants on them. My skin was burning after we were done from the fire ants that are on the monkeys.
Carl Schuster: We had looked forward to the Monkey Jungle and we were not disappointed. The staff was very friendly and accommodating they kept us informed and entertained. The Monkeys were the feature, having the Squirrel Monkeys come out the trees to climb or jump on you to feed was a Great experience. Worth the money for the Monkey cause and the enjoyment. Good Monkeying around time.
Ford Driver Buddy: What an amazing experience!! Will our guide did an absolutely amazing job explaining everything. Great experience for the whole family. We were able to see more then the monkeys but of course they stole the show! We saw exotic birds, reptiles, tortoises and fish. Definitely an investment activity $$$ for a family of 6, however truly a once in a lifetime experience. So I would say it's DEFINITELY WORTH IT!!!
Nikole Miklos: Very personal, friendly and educational experience. The price seemed high but after understanding why it had been raised and making the unforgettable memories we got more than our money’s worth!! It’s a one of a kind time in the Miami area. Great for every age including our 15 month old son! Just be advised try to wear sleeves and clothing (including shoes!) that can get a bit dirty. We were happy for the off & on rain showers to cool us off but it def made for a muddy time. It did all rinse and wash off easily with no stains. Wonderful experience we highly recommend!! Thank you to the staff for such a private and amazing time!!!
Response: Thank you for visiting! Glad to hear you all had an amazing time!
Ivan Llano: Great place… operating at a limited capacity and just special tours due to Covid, expensive? Yes…. but it is worth it.The staff was great. Kudos to Carlos and Christopher.

The Wolfsonian-Florida International University: what do users think?
María Fernanda Sánchez: It's a beautiful museum with amazing art deco architecture. It's thoughtfully curated and there's a cafe in the gift shop.
Jahan Raissi: The flight perspective exhibition is great and worth a look. Really like the 30s artwork. The top floor and first floor exhibitions not so much and I'd skip. A very nice respite from the south beach thumping tunes bar thing.
Glenda Harris: We came here on a Saturday afternoon and got in without too long of a line and without tickets. I think the line starts to die down later in the afternoon/evening. You can get through all of the exhibits in one go. I loved all of the innovative, creative, beautiful artwork.
Carrie C.: Pure bliss for an antiquarian seeking refuge from the Miami heat to relish in the finery, findings and curiosities collected by Micky Wolfson. Although only the first floor of the museum is currently open, it's enough to satiate your senses and set your expectations for this cultural blossom to fully bloom again in November.
lolive lolive: Admission was complimentary with our hotel. The museum is small, but plenty of pretty and instructive pieces.We loved the Aerial exhibition. The museum shop was nice too and the staff there recommended a nice walk in Miami Beach to see historic buildings.
Wiktoria Rudz: I was lucky to join on the evening of live dance performances but would enjoy regardless. However expositions change so can't speak for future stuff. Lovely shop
Natasha Tylosky: Great museum, small but free so it's definitely worth the visit if you like art deco
Tilman Benecke: Although the museum is tiny, I really liked it there, you have to say right away, it didn't cost any admission either. the exhibits are very interesting. and also I liked the museum shop very much.
Peter Schutterlin: Beautiful building, both inside and out. Saw a superb special exhibition celebrating aerial transportation. Museum shop has some lovely things to buy.
Fraser Cambridge: This is a must if you’re interested in Art Deco or 20th Century Design. The majority of the display items are objects; household appliances, furniture and items of commercial usage. There are a few paintings & posters from the Art Deco era, and various cool items from world fairs. Fair value at $12, my only complaint is that the actual display space is quite small for such a large building just 2 floors, 2 further floors are offices and one floor is a library. Would have loved to have seen more of the collection! On a positive note there is however no restriction on taking photos.

Art Deco Welcome Center: what do users think?
Katherine Sirvio: Okay, nice enough but not what we expected. They do give you a map of all the Art Deco buildings in the area but if you found your way here the rest isn’t difficult to figure out. The “museum” is a racing museum, if that’s what your coming for then great! The Art Deco portion is small and not much - a couple of poster displays. Clean bathrooms and air conditioning make it a nice pit stop. Gift shop has fun vintage pieces and some new things, pricey. Outside is a great photo op at the clock wall.
Melanie s: We really enjoyed our walking tour of the art deco district with Martin. He was extremely knowledgeable and insightful and we were surprised how much we learned that wouldn't be obvious just from exploring the area ourselves. The tour felt a little pricey but it definitely was worth it!
Charlene Arthur: Friendly, knowledgeable staff! If you're a student or local, it's free entrance. If you are none of the above, entrance is $5. The gift shop offers vintage post cards & other memorabilia. Stop in for brochures before you plan your day in Miami Beach!
Krystal: The art deco exhibition was really impressive! It was so nice to learn the history of Miami's hotels and architecture. I felt really happy when I spotted some of what I learned around the city. Entry is free for student and $5 for adults.
Vidal Sanabria: This was awesome as it is right on the beach and speaks of the great history of Miami's art deco scene.
Nikki Vasiliadis: This area is really packed with people, bars and restaurants. The building are beautiful but in general the area can be quite hectic. For sure worth a stroll, stick to the pathway across the road for the best view of the building and get the full impact 🌴
Sandy L: Definitely a great afternoon and night spot to hang out, eat, sightsee and walk the beach... fun, musical and of course colorful!!!
Lounes Hadidi: Would definitely recommend to see this museum! If anybody has a school ID it's free but anybody that doesn't has to pay. The artifacts are lovely and a little history about Miami Beach!
Response: Thank you for your wonderful review.
Daniel Stepel (The last Baby Boomer): Welcomes centers can often be just blunt nondescript buildings. Not here. This place blends in perfectly with all the art deco hotels in this historic district. Inside you will find nothing but overpriced kitsch souvenirs and a very friendly staff. They do sell ice cold bottled water for a buck.
William van Tubbs: Loved the walking tour with Franzi!! Parking is a bit expensive. There are lots that only charge $20 per day, otherwise park mobile for $17 for 4 hours. The gift shop is nice. The museum is not really worth it. $5 for maybe 15 minutes of things to see.

South Pointe Park Pier: what do users think?
G J: Serene and refreshing! Gentle morning breeze and the slow moving waves with turquoise color water brings peace to your mind! Perfect place for meditation and awesome ocean views .constantly moving boats and cruises doesn’t cause any interruptions to your inner peace. Rock bridges on both sides adds beauty to the landscape. The boardwalk itself is very well planned and laid out nicely. Love this place! Slightly away from the hustle and bustle of the city , this place is one of my favorites in this city. Come and enjoy the serenity of this place!
Steven Díaz Zalduondo: Spectacular views with a peaceful breeze! This pier has one of the best views in South Beach. From this point you can look at the beach and the buildings at the same time. They have some benches and a water fountain at the end of the pier. We also liked the art at the entrance of the pier. I recommend to go early in the morning when the Sun is not that bad.
Nick D: Very picturesque location. Good sunset location. So many people walking up and down the path leading up to the pier. Even saw a dog park in one of the areas. There is public parking available at the entrance to the South Pointe Park.
Jason Brown: Fantastic views from here of South Beach and Fischer Island. It's a short walk from both the beach and South Point Park. Probably one of my favorite things about South Beach. We came the week of Christmas and the weather was absolutely beautiful. 86 degrees and breezy. You couldn't ask for more beautiful weather to explore and take it the views from a place like this!
Yakup Content AI Manager: Such a beautiful place to stay for a while and enjoy the amazing sun of Florida and the ocean! It is clean and everything is relaxed; even if many people are here it is a great place to come and enjoy the sun! Definitely worth trying it! Just be aware that you have to look for a parking slot in the neighborhood!
Mallanagouda Patil: This is the end point of south beach in Miami. When you take the sea side walk this is the end point. It has got beautiful view of south beach and also amazing view of the downtown and Miami port. They are building one big path on the sea with rocks that’s in progress. Apart from that they already have one view point which is already built. There is also south pointe park where you have children playground and splash pad too make you cool. In the park there is small shop to get ice creams and other stuff. This is beautiful park and must visit if you are in a south beach.
María Fernanda Sánchez: Great for an evening stroll. We were not able to go into the pier but walked along the promenade and saw some beach cats hanging by the steak house. It is busy with lots of families and folks on bikes and skates, even in the evening.
Anna Svistunova: An amazing place with beautiful park and very clean beach in Miami. There are all needed services for rest with comfort. The south Park is good for families also because it has safe beach line and shallow entry into the ocean. Highly recommend it to visit!
Suxant: The pier is simply stunning. Located at the southern tip of the humongous Miami beach. One can pedal or walk to this beach across the Miami beach coast. The view is spectacular. The magnificent buildings at one side and the beautiful Miami beach on the other side. Simply a visual treat. This is a photographers paradise. There is beautiful park right next to this place. This spot is very well connected by public transportation. There is also a citi bicycle pick up station at the entrance of the beach. All in all, a must visit place.
Dragan Ange: The walk around the south point of South Beach is very beautiful with a gorgeous view from the pier. You can see the entire length of the beach. Rent a bicycle or have a nice walk/run. There is a place to buy some refreshments on the hot sunny day

Zoo Miami: what do users think?
Kaitlyn Arlotta: Best Zoo I have ever visited! It is beautiful to see the education along the way for the public and ways that we can help make a change globally. Natural habitat exhibits and we spent 4 hours walking which felt like it went so fast. Every turn there is another animal to see and learn about!
Matt Williams: Even with the weather being as extreme as it was the animals still had enough energy to be out for us to view/enjoy. The exhibits are laid out in a way that makes you feel like you're actually in the jungle or a part of a Jurassic Park movie set. The audio playing throughout each walkway put you on edge thinking something was about to walk out on you or towards you. The staff were extremely professional/helpful. Overall one of the best zoos we have ever attended.
Michelle Kearl: Truly an incredible experience! I've been to lots of zoos and this one has its own unique experiences! We spent the whole time there, 10am-5pm and could have spent even more. Brought lunch in with us, lots of water spots to fill bottles and mist stations to cool you off. If you are debating going do it! We only have a few days in the area and wondered if it would be worth the time spent and it was. 🐅🐯🐘🐸
Response: Thank you for taking the time to review us. Great photos and we are happy to hear you enjoyed your visit. We hope to see you again soon!
Katya Rusova: The zoo itself is great. They have a large variety of animals and they provide educational information. I really recommend purchasing your tickets online, it saves you time and money. Some of the exhibits were closed but we still had a lot of fun. As for food, it was average, just like in any other park or zoo. Overall a great experience and I will definitely be visiting again.

Andrea Echeverria: The best zoo! My family and I had so much fun. The environment is calm but you get to also have fun. They have some great animals and experiences. The animals and their cages seem well taken care of. The zoo is clean and very big. The cycles are also an amazing option to walk a little less. Inside you will find everything you need, there are lots of souvenir and snack stands all over. The refreshing stations are also very useful. I absolutely recommend this place!! Especially if you are looking for a zoo that really cares about their animals.
Response: Thank you! Great photo of the giraffe feeding! We hope you will visit us again soon.
Madds: 🎟ORDER TICKETS ONLINE🎟 💵 CASH FOR VENDING MACHINES💵 🚫Tram/Monorail Closed🚫 This zoo is one of the nicest ones I have ever seen. Every animal appears well cared for and it was the only zoo I have been to where every animal is active/alert. This place is huge and I’d recommend for anyone to rent a pedal bike. They cost a bit much but because the zoo also has a botanical garden, there’s a lot of plants and no animals on some trails. The bikes come in different sizes to accommodate family size. There’s a water park for children and a playground. Remember to bring bathing suits and sunscreen. There’s also boat rentals and a variety of hands on educational activities. 🦒 Giraffe feeding Parrot feeding 🐫 Camel feeding 🦏 Rhino feeding 🐘 elephant presentations 🦉 animal encounters (check website)
Response: Thank you for your visit and for providing such helpful tips for our guests!
Sportbikepc 1: Awesome Zoo! We had a great time. We rented a bike to get around it Made it a bit easier but you better be in shape .. grounds and animals appeared to be very well kept. The water park was also nice for my girls.. Hope to come back again!
Response: Thank you! We are glad you enjoyed your visit. :)
Jeremy D. Boyd: Quite possibly the best zoo in the country. The cageless feel to the place is really amazing but this is a large, sprawling zoo with such a great deal of experiences. Downside right now is the monorail being temporarily closed and there are a few animal exhibits being revamped but still an amazing park. Highly recommended. We spend hours and hours there when we go!
Pat: The zoo has only gotten better with time. The family vehicles are a must if you have at least 2 adults and 2 kids. The vehicles are perfect for keeping out the sun but you need 2 or more people with leg strength to pedal it all day. I loved how they even had row boats to rent to go on the river. The food was pretty good for a zoo. My least favorite was the little river ride near the entrance that was a fee and you basically saw nothing. It was a complete waste of time and money. Other than that it was a good experience
Breanna Baurley: Beautiful zoo. We just bought the year pass for the first time in a few years. They've expanded since the last time we were there. We're planning on taking walks at least once a month this year at the zoo. Lots of trails, good amount of shade, but bring sunscreen. We were there for 3 hours today and saw a bit less than 1/3rd of the animals. If you're worried about the walking rent one of those bikes.

Oleta River State Park: what do users think?
Pedro Mata: Great Florida State Park in the middle of civilization. Great for kayaking and mountain biking. It also has a beach area, trails, pavilions, views of the bay, and even several small log cabins. Has ample parking and clean restroom facilities. Nice place for us city folk to get away without going away.
Lenrock: Great park, reasonably priced rentals and an amazing staff. $45 for a tandem kayak and $5 per half hour thereafter. All of the life jackets were brand new and fit well. Oars and boats were also in great condition. Get the kayak and go to the Sandbar its definitely fun to do. Pro Tip: on top of sun screen and water I would highly recommend some insect repellent. The skeeters out there are super aggressive and very hungry, especially if you are as delicious as I am.
elad rothschild: We just love this place! perfect for kayaking, sup etc. Going around with the bicycle (you can also rent there). Bbq, picnic... and of course the white sand beach. a little crowded on weekends and holidays, especially if you plan on a BBQ place. super nice people come here. they charge 6 $ for a car.
Tiana Renee: Love the falcons I meant hawks I believe lol that roam freely here and cats! Very peaceful quiet a lot of nature paths bear by beautiful place where you can sit on the rocks to either photograph or spot lots and lots of Lizards! Little pond area for swimming as well and lake area I'm assuming is for fishing and boating cool place overall great place to sit and watch the sunset!
Hunter Masi: Very well maintained State Park! It has beautiful views and it’s nice to get some peace and quiet once in a while especially in Miami. I’m not much of a nature person but the views alone make it worth a visit!
S D: Went for a camping trip with a large group of over 70 people. There was only one working bathroom that did not lock and did not have lights. The worst part where the no-see-um insects. We could not sleep the whole night. The next day the bug bites were so bad many of the kids could not go to school. Seems like they do not spray the campgrounds and it is sitting in a swampy area. I definitely will not go camping here again.
Maggie G: We had one of the most beautiful experience of kayaking ever. The site is amazing. And even though they were missing a few employees, the staff in place was efficient, friendly and helpful. We'll go back for sure !
Sophia Restrepo: I have been going to this park for many years... It's always a great time. Wish the kayaking experiences were a bit more affordable, but other than that, it's so nice to have access to the park and to be able to explore!
Bethany Schwerstein: Booked 2 nights, but could only stay 1 due to the awful bed in the cabin. I understand the idea of “rustic” but the bed was MAYBE 10 inches thick & sunk in the middle so we would constantly fall into it and anytime either of us would move, the bed would creak SO loud that it would wake the other up. We didn’t sleep AT ALL & had body aches all the next day. If you’re planning to stay at this park in the cabins, make sure you bring a memory foam topper or your own inflatable mattress. Pretty pathetic they can’t get a better bed in there. We decided to lose the $75 we paid for the extra night so we could go home to a decent bed.
Kim Kravitz: Beautiful well conserved park where you can enjoy a wonderful day with family. You can take your kayak or rent. We had an Amazing time where we even encounter wild dolphins. Will be back for sure.

HistoryMiami Museum: what do users think?
Mauro Ruini: The History Miami Museum was a nice surprise. It is definitely not one of the most celebrated museums in Miami, but it turned out to be very interesting. The best part is in the second building, north of the main ones; we spent almost 2 hours there and you can learn a lot about the history of Miami. I definitely recommend a visit but take your time in the 2nd bldg. to read what you are looking at.
Response: Thank you so much for the nice review. We are happy to read you enjoyed your time with us. We look forward to seeing you back in the galleries.
Adriana Ruini: Miami is known worldwide as a “fiesta city”; but although it doesn’t have a lot of museums like other big cities, if you are interested in culture, you can find some good venues/events here as well. One of them if the History Miami Museum, located Downtown, in an area frequented by a lot of people not as fortunate as we all are, but frankly I never had a problem walking there (at least during the day). We found this little gem thanks to a Groupon offer, and went to Miami last month for a day trip just to see the museum. Unfortunately we found it closed, and there was no sign at all at the entrance, nothing indicated on their website, no special message on their answering machine… It was a passer-by that reminded us it was Veteran’s Day: our fault for not having thought of that, but I’m still rating the museum 4 stars instead of 5 because of their lack of proper communication (potential international visitors won’t know that city’s offices are closed for Veteran’s Day). So we took another day trip to Miami this month to go and see the museum. The museum consists in 2 buildings of 2 floors, and you start your visit in the building displaying items belonging to the most recent history of Miami. I understand that in this section they also have special exhibits, but unfortunately there was none not when we visited. I found the second building much more interesting: it goes from the old times and also has more items. The place is small, but I think we stayed in the second building for almost a couple of hours: I loved it! It’s very informative, shows lots of very old pictures, a video, and makes you want to further study Miami’s history. I really enjoyed my visit!
Response: Thank you so much Adriana for your review. We are so happy you enjoyed your visit with us. We have taken your feedback and will make sure that our holiday schedule is even more visible on the website. Thank you for visiting.
marianne cadena: Actually two museums, North Bldg. has the History of South Florida, South Bldg. has more local items. Lots of hands on displays and informative stories. Not too expensive & a pleasant, interesting way to spend an hour or two
Tamara Etienne: Beautiful to see the Dreams Exhibit and learn about all the people that have lived in Miami. Including my people, Haitians! Loved the tour guide and will be returning again! Free for families every 2nd Saturday. Check site for monthly updates.
Response: Thank you so much for the great review! We look forward to welcoming you back soon!
Daviyion Johnson: If you're in Miami and interested in the history of the region and the city this is a great starting point. It wasn't as comprehensive of the post 1950s as I would haveiked, but it was still full of lots of cool memorabilia and factoids.
Jennifer Nanek: Excellent experience. Came here for a quick visit. A small museum that does a good job capturing the history and culture of Miami. I like the bright colors in their displays. They keep the information simple and to the point. My recommendation is they need a gift shop.
Fairuziana Humam: Nice place to visit for a 2 hours quick overview about the history of Miami from 10,000 years ago 😱 I went when it was free. I think it's quite a new museum and pretty small, but what they have is all well made and presented. Good educational trip.
Michael Jimenez: Fun day today at the Miami History Museum. Especially since today was free entry for everyone. This place had a lot to see. More than I expected. If you are in the downtown area. Make some time to check it out. An hour to two max to see all the displays they have. Lots of interesting facts and history of the Miami area. Also if you are new to this area. Look for the Metro mover around the North side of the Museum to get a free ride around the City.
Ryesher Dsouza: A nice museum which takes you through the sequence of events that built Miami as a city. Nice to see a different perspective on this legendary city. You can spend a good 1.5 hours here across the two buildings. While the chronological exhibits were great, I must say that I was blown away by the Photo Walk on the 2nd Floor of the second building. The photographer has so brilliantly captured some of the pictures that you will definitely be mesmerized by the quality of the images and their perspective. Overall, a great place to spend a few hours and then go grab lunch!
Response: Thank you so much Ryesher for the great review. We are so pleased to read you enjoyed your time with us.
Carrie C.: A cultural oculus centered in Downtown shining light on the diverse history and colorful character of Miami. The History Miami Museum is an immersive experience diving deep into the treasures of the past. Moments in time on display encompassing the space of two buildings and intrinsically located next to the library for further cerebral enhancement. Explore freely and absorb the magic of Miami!

Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach: what do users think?
Lady Kia: The Holocaust is a piece of history I enjoy learning more and more about. It's a very horrific piece of history indeed but hearing and seeing what these people went through must be shared with many generations to come. It's a small memorial but it was lovely nonetheless. If you're in Miami Beach this is a must see!
Jennifer Wright: So powerful and moving...intense and surreal to see all people depicted in the statue and the names on all the walls.
Californika T: this memorial is striking in the heart. there you feel the incredible pain of those events. very nice and quiet park with a magnificent pond. being there, you immediately understand that you are lucky to live and be free. sculptures, photographs and an endless number of victim names make you numb with the horror of the Holocaust ...
Rachelle A.: Really great place, but be aware that there are pictures that can be graphic and inappropriate for young children due to naked people, and mounts of bodies. Otherwise it was heart wrenching, and very informational. The hand statue is really magnificent and a wonder to look at.
Christopher Eidt: An emotional experience, panels literally walk you through the hardships of the Holocaust with heartbreaking imagery with brutal descriptions. We must be taken aback by the extent of cruelty and mistreatment (it is described that death was cheered for), and while it’s hard to understand how people can be so hateful, seeing this memorial in the present times (2020 for me) is a wake-up call for how easily humanity can be manipulated into hatred. There is little here about the Nazi’s themselves, but this memorial is not for them. It is the victims we must cherish not because so many of them suffered to death (including one example of a man who opted for death by electric fence to escape the dreadful gas chambers), but because they lived. Real people were incinerated. Real children were taken from their families and killed. Millions of people. The memorial is a beautiful piece of art. A free exhibit, too, worth seeing to reflect on the event alone...I couldn’t help but take photos of the reflections I found.
Radu Schefler: Story so sad, so interesting.Must remember for ever
Brandon Earhart: Truly amazing memorial. Attended an event here on National Holocaust Remembrance Day and was in awe of the detail of this memorial. Great educational location to ensure we never forget.
Mauricio Pretto: What a strong, punch on the face message this place sendsReally one of the most impactful memorials I've beenThe hand sculpture it's so deep and strong I have no words to describe it
Esgoya Sazon: Simply put, it was amazing! So peaceful, yet so disturbing. The emotion you feel while standing there, reading about this travesty, is immense. It was well made. The Botanical Gardens, right behind it, is really neat too!
LeAnn Hillman: Absolutely stunning memorial. A must see in Miami. The statues are very life like and tragic which gives a view of the horrific events that occurred in the Holocaust that we cannot forget. A very somber place for reflection and remembrance of those that were lost.

Bayside Marketplace: what do users think?
Kamil S: Very nice views but only one restroom with one urinal and one toilet. Huge potential but feels all dirty. It was not busy when we were here, so I can't imagine how all the visitors and tourists would go to the restrooms. Also, it seems like all bars and restaurants don't have restrooms. Nice place but should be better.
Hope Jones: Bayside looks to be a great place to shop, eat & just take in the scene!!! Didn't go into the business. We took the Bayside Boat Tour (will absolutely not do it again!!! The sights were nice but the boat (hot on the inside, downstairs), couldn't hear the tour guide as he was speaking & the boat looks to haven't had an update in years!!! The other tour boats looked a lot more inviting on the water!! The bus tour was better!!!
Auldrick Brown: Variety of shops for all kinds of souvenirs and crafts and also some brand stores. Many options for dining (including Hard Rock Cafe), a quick snack or some fruit juice or ice cream. Good view of the marina and multiple options to rent a boat or take a boat tour of the area. It's cool to walk around or to catch an aerial view from the eye.
April Martin: Loved this place!! It is a great place to spend the day. There are shops, drinks, every kind of tour you could ask for is available to book there. Deep sea fishing tours to yacht and bus tours. Several options are available for food and the best place to park is in the parking garage right next to the entrance.
Alena Salanovich: Excellent location! 🎡⛵⚓Five stars for location!!! Finding a parking space was not easy. Good place for a quick shopping and drink. We ate here but it was no a good experience.There is a large number of stories, restaurants, attractions .. But unfortunately it all seems a bit dirty and run down...Large line to the bathroom..🙄 And the bathroom was not very clean
Hamlet Arias: Bayside is a fun place to visit for tourists, but a lot of locals enjoy the bars and boating activities. It’s nice to have a drink next to the water while listening to music and dancing. We had a blast at Lola Bar, excellent (and strong) drinks. Definitely worth a Friday night out for fun.
Devon Newsom: I had an amazing time with my s/o just walking around and enjoying the views. The stores are more expensive then they would be in an area away from the water. But very nice selection and gifts and some nice people. Its always busy but still enjoyable.
Yakup Content AI Manager: Cool Marketplace in downtown Miami which has a lot of stores and opportunities to shop. You just have to be aware of the touristic prices so Always double check the prices of the products in different stores. Chances are high that you will get it cheaper if you take more time. It is good for chilling and also for trying new restaurants- the staff is sometimes not the fastest but other than that a real cool spot and worth spending half a day.
Frank Mathy: We‘ve always loved Bayside since the early 1990s. We’ve been back in May 2022 after many years and it has changed to the negative. Many good stores are no longer there, parking is very expensive with 10$ per hour and there was major construction going on near the water. So there was no live music and you felt like at a major construction site. Fingers crossed that it will be as nice as before when construction is complete and I can change back to 5 stars.
kevin adams: a wide variety of shops, bars and restaurants along the waterfront, within a 2 story structure...all venues r accessible from outside. the Hard Rock Cafe offers excellent ocean / Harbour views from their wrap-around patio. this outdoor market is great for the whole family. if visiting Miami for a short / long period of time, this should b a MUST destination...good parking right on premises, safe, and located just south of the arena where the HEAT play in!

The Kampong, National Tropical Botanical Garden: what do users think?
Kailey Rinder: Really enjoyed my visit to the Kampong today! Beautiful variety of plants, sweet & helpful people working there, and lots of benches to let you sit & enjoy the view! I will definitely return! FYI: You have to reserve a time in advance (easy to book on their website) and then you’ll get information on entering the gated garden at your time slot. The reservation system keeps the place less crowded than many nearby attractions. Note: Be prepared to walk off trails and in dirt/grass so dont wear your favorite white shoes!
Tom Yee: Great place to meander amongst exotic plants for a couple hours. Check their website for admission fee cost. You have to use the call box at the gate once you arrive.
Danielle Hurst: My boyfriend and I visited the gardens. We spent a little more than 2 hours doing the self guided tour and enjoying all the plants. We particularly liked some of the exotic fruit and plants such as coffee that we do not see in Wisconsin! We even got to see a couple of manatees in the water! Overall an excellent visit :)
Response: Danielle, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so happy that you and your boyfriend enjoyed your visit to The Kampong. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. -Guest Services Manager, Valentina G. Fernandez
Joe Gonzalez: A hidend tressure in the grove and oases that's is part of miami history one's u r in the place you forget that you r blocks away from the crowd and traffic of the grove .. A hidden Jen for sure would recommend to everyone that live in miami to go not wait 30 year's like we did. Lol.. Going back thanks to one of the staff members who took his time to show us the plant and it was close to closing time 4 pm thank you....
Response: Thank you for your kind review. Please visit us again!
Jessica Shin: A slice of lush tropical jungle hides in Coconut Grove where it feels like a privilege as the red gates open to a long driveway to the main house. They have almost every tropical plant you can imagine and then some surrounding the house. My favorite sites were the pool and The Point, featuring a solitary palm tree and a balinese bench overlooking the water and surrounded by mangroves while the neighbors have neutered their land to build boat docks. The gardens are a peaceful hideaway amidst the highrise Miami landscape. I do wish the guided tours were available because there is probably a better story about the property than the gigantic self-guided flyer. It was cumbersome to flip back and forth between the site map and the numbered locations that I discarded its use after 10 minutes.
Response: Thank you for your honest review Jessica. We will note your suggestions regarding our self guided tour brochure.
Michael Lelko: This place is absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend visiting if you are in the area. My wife and I were blown away by the scenery and it was extremely informative!
Mariela Ychante Huerta: Beautiful gardens with a spectacular view. Bring a hat and some water!I would recommend to bring closed shoes. You won't be disappointed!
Jennifer James: Nice bay front botanical garden. Took scooters from Grand Ave straight down Main Hwy and has a nice bike lane to keep off the roads. House is only open for guided tours. Self guided is fine.

lost pixel: One of most beautiful hidden gardens of southern Florida located in a secluded yet central neighborhood. The hidden entry leads to a spectacular waterfront view. The open airy Southeast Asia style home is a innovative design way ahead of it's time. The plant collection is both continuously in flower and scientifically significant. The Foundation offers inspiration yoga classes. Entry is strictly limited but to visit ensures memories that will last a lifetime.
