Notes before you book

  • This is a one-way route of just over a mile, so you can explore Lincoln Road before the tour and stay on Ocean Drive after it.
  • In heavy showers we wait under cover, and that time counts toward the 90 minutes.

Questions about this tour

Is the walk suitable for strollers or limited mobility?

Strollers are fine. The walk covers about a mile on city sidewalks, so it isn’t recommended for wheelchairs or for guests who find longer walks difficult. The 2-hour daytime drive covers Ocean Drive and the Art Deco streets by car instead.

Can I do the walk on a cruise day?

Yes, before you board. Most embarkations start after 12:00 PM, so choose an early start time, and leave time to go back to your hotel for your luggage before heading to the port.

What happens if it rains?

Miami rain is usually heavy and short. On vehicle tours I move the driving forward and take the walks when it passes; the walking tour pauses under cover. If a named storm, a hurricane or flood watch, or an official road closure makes the tour unsafe, I cancel and you choose a full refund or a new date.

Is a child seat available?

No. There is no child seat in the car, so children aged 5 and under can't join the vehicle tours. The walking tour is open to children aged 5 and up.
