Ocean Drive and 13th Street in Miami Beach
Stroll along Ocean Drive to experience South Beach's legendary architectural boulevard. Walk past beautifully restored pastel Art Deco facades, bustling street side cafes, and Lummus Park. Take photos outside the famous Versace Mansion while learning about Gianni Versace’s legacy and the 1990s fashion renaissance.

Enjoy sweeping views of Fisher Island, massive cruise ships gliding through Government Cut, the South Beach shoreline, and the rising Downtown Miami skyline—a prime photo stop on the tour.
Venture just two blocks off the tourist-heavy strip of Collins Avenue into the quiet residential heart of South Beach that most visitors completely miss. As you ride smoothly through these tree-lined neighborhood streets, discover where locals actually live. See preserved 1930s residential Art Deco apartment buildings, local parks, and neighborhood sporting facilities.
