This tour was perfect for anyone looking to get a real inside history about Little Havana and Cuban Culture, all while centered around delicious food. You will walk around 2 hours through the historic streets of Little Havana as the tour describes. If you come hungry I guarantee you will leave FULL! The food we were given was amazing and so was our guide Aimee. I would highly recommend requesting her as your tour guide if you can. The only thing I would highly suggest for first timers of this tour is to come HUNGRY and DECAFFINATED. I say this because I saw people only take small bites/sips of the food & drink we were given because they said they ate before the tour. DON’T DO IT. The food they will give you will be more than enough to fill you up so take time to enjoy it and NOT eat breakfast before-hand unless it’s a light one, as they will take you to atleast 5 different places to eat and drink different foods, including Cuban coffee which is strong, and will wake you up!

Little Havana is a tiny area on Calle ocho - so to make a tour that lasts 2hrs out of that is impressive and that’s what Dre does ! She took her time walking us from one location to the other and letting know what we were going to eat/ experience. It was very relaxing and laid back . The food of course was fantastic and the history / culture we got to peek into was beautiful as well!

Miguel was a phenomenal tour guide. He knew so much about the area and you could see a lot of genuine passion for the Cuban community here. The food was PHENOMENAL. After the tour was over, we went back to the first stop to enjoy more of their incredible mojitos. I would recommend this tour to everyone interested in exploring Little Havana. It was a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon in Miami!
