Damien was very interesting and was super excited for this tour. However, prior to getting out on the bikes for the tour, my sister became very ill and we had to head back to the hotel.

Through Deco’s tales, both young and old.
Your review is brighter than the tropic air,
Grateful to have you, a guest so rare!"

We made a really nice cycling tour with guide Damian. He has lots of interesting information about South Beach, Art Deco and its history
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Your words are like gears smoothly shifting through the gears of Miami Beach's Art Deco charm. We're elated to have been your pedal-powered storytellers.

Damien did an amazing job detailing the history of South Beach Art Deco, pointing out historic and iconic buildings, and their fascinating back stories. He taught us the history of S Beach, including all about the pioneers who had a vision to put SB on the map.
He pointed out buildings where famous movies were made, and shared surprising details of the tragic Versace murder.
His 3 hour bike tour was thorough and fun. Damien made sure to get us into shade as much as possible when he stopped to talk
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Your review's energy is as infectious as the joy of riding through Miami Beach's Art Deco on a bicycle! Thanks for letting us be your tour's training wheels.
Urszula_B, May 2023
Damian is very knowledgeable and professional tour guide.We heard Fany and interesting stories. He was always waiting for entire group to get together, friendly and kind person. South Beach Miami is great place for bicycle tour with good tour guide . Highly recommend.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Your words ride through our hearts like a tandem bike, perfectly in sync with the beauty of Miami Beach's Art Deco. We're glad we could pedal together.
Keith_T, Apr 2023
Damian was excellent. His knowledge of the history and how the architecture of the area relates to the history is extensive and he presents it clearly while very willing and capable to answer all questions. He obviously has a wide knowledge and does not recite a pre-written script.
He changed my appreciation of Art Deco.
The bikes are good. The length and pace of the tour is easy. It’s an extensive tour at 3 hours but the bikes are an easy way to go further, it is no way an exercise tour so suitable for anyone with modest bike skills.
I highly recommend it.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Your review is as smooth as a well-oiled chain gliding through Miami Beach's Art Deco scenes. We're thrilled to have been your bike mechanics for the day.
Sean_T, Feb 2023
We learned alot! The buildings became "alive" as the architecture was explained so well. Lots of cool history tidbits!!
Response from Host, Nov 2023

Leuke gids Damian, die veel wist en vertelde. Zoekt schaduwplekjes op en regelt water, aangezien het heel warm was. Leuk om over South beach te fietsen!
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Sorry to hear the you found the tour to be too rich with Historical Heritage, Architecture, and Crime. Perhaps next time you could take a regular, less expertly bike tour which are shorter and just take you for a ride.
GUILHERME_G, May 2023
O guia super prestativo e muito bem informado. O passeio transcorreu super bem , as informações foram excelentes.
