Miami: Little Havana Food and Walking Tour

About this experience

Miami: Little Havana Food and Walking Tour is a guided two-hour walking tour through the Little Havana neighbourhood of Miami, starting at 1518 Southwest 8th Street. Led by a bilingual local guide, the tour moves along Calle Ocho, the main artery of Miami's Little Havana, taking in family-owned food spots, cultural landmarks, and live music. Little Havana developed as the centre of Cuban exile life following the 1960s migration wave, and the neighbourhood retains strong ties to that history through its architecture, memorials, and daily street life. The tour opens at a Cuban coffee house with a traditional cafecito, then continues through tastings of empanadas, croquetas, and guava pastries at local establishments. Guests watch a cigar rolling demonstration and hear live Cuban music along the route. Stops include Domino Park, the Calle Ocho Walk of Fame, and the Cuban Jazz bar associated with Louis Armstrong. The guide covers the history of the Tower Theatre and Cubaocho Museum, and the route passes Cuban Memorial Boulevard Park and the Bay of Pigs Monument. Tickets cover the guided tour, all included food tastings, the cup of Cuban coffee, and the cigar rolling demonstration. Guide gratuities, additional food, and transport are not included. Free cancellation applies before the booked timeslot, and the tour is wheelchair accessible.
