What you will visit:
Miami (driving tour)
Miami, the cruise capital of the world, is an eclectic mix of identities representing its colorful history. This former Spanish settlement was once accessible only by boat but has grown to become one of South Florida's premier vacation destinations. Cross Biscayne Bay, the largest estuary on the coast of southeast Florida, to this modern, and star-studded metropolis. From "Millionaires Row" to a host of cultural treasures-including its Art Deco District, graceful Coral Gables, the bohemian Coconut Grove, and the streets of Little Havana alive with Cuban flavor-each district showcases a vibrant community that makes the mosaic of Miami's heritage.
Biscayne Bay Cruise
The crystalline waters of Biscayne Bay beckon you to explore on a cruise along its sun-splashed coast for an opportunity to see Miami from a different vantage point. After admiring your cruise ship at port and the Miami skyline, head into the open waters for Fisher Island to see the multimillion-dollar homes owned by Hollywood elite as well as Star Island, aptly named and offering a glimpse into the backyards of the rich and famous. See all the hottest hotels, resorts and glamorous yachts, then look down into the clear water for colorful marine life, dolphins, rays and more.
What you will see along the way:
As you enter the heart of the city, you will see the Miami Arena, home of the Miami Heat, and Bayside Marketplace, overlooking Biscayne Bay. Follow the route of the Orange Bowl Parade to Miami's financial and commercial district and into Coconut Grove. Continue west to peaceful Coral Gables, an exclusive community developed in the 1920s. Travel to "Little Havana" and across the causeway to South Beach.
From the water, delight in sailing through the Port of Miami, the "cruise capital of the world," for views of your ship. Head to Fisher Island to admire the multimillion-dollar homes owned by the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Boris Becker, Mel Brooks, Ann Bancroft, Paul Newman and former Florida governor Jeb Bush. Cruise by Star Island and peek at Rosie O'Donnell's and Gloria Estefan's estates. Other properties of interest include the honeymoon cottage of Elizabeth Taylor and Eddie Fisher and the house used in the film The Specialist, starring Sharon Stone and Sylvester Stallone. On Palm Island, you can practically look into the guard house at Al Capone's old abode.
