Miami Semi-Private City Tour

A Miami Semi-Private City Tour isn’t your typical ride-around-the-block kind of deal — this is 3.5 hours of real-deal Miami.


We’re the only city tour in Miami that takes you inside Star Island by bus — no one else does that. You’re not stuck in some giant double-decker with 70 tourists and a prerecorded voice. This is semi-private, small group, high energy, and full of personality. Each vehicle has a maximum of 13 passengers, so everyone gets front-row vibes. From beach access in South Beach to the art in Wynwood, Cuban coffee in Little Havana, and selfies at our secret skyline spot — this is the Miami tour that actually delivers. Brought to you by Miami Tour Bus.
