Description
Did you know that Miami Beach is mostly man-made? And that Biscayne Bay used to be a shallow swamp? And that Muhammad Ali became world boxing champion for the first time right here in Miami Beach? As an avid member of the Miami Design Preservation League (MDPL) and a devoted local historian, I'm excited to offer a captivating guided bicycle tour through the heart of Miami Beach, where we will delve into its checkered past and relive its history over time, which is truly stranger than fiction. Our sightseeing bicycle journey will take us along iconic streets of South Beach leading us through lobbies of exquisite Art Deco hotels, scenic parks, and historical sites. You'll gain insights into early days evolution, The Great Depression, city’s unique architecture, adverse segregation, Black history, Jewish history, Cuban migration, the notorious cocaine cowboys’ era, the influence of 'Miami Vice,' the infamous murder of Gianni Versace, plenty of hidden gems, and much more. You’ll discover the true spirit of Miami Beach beyond the typical tourist routes and simplified clichés, so many visitors get trapped in. You'll walk away with a newfound appreciation for this remarkable city and its intriguing story.Includes
