Everglades Shared Airboat:
Steve is a wonderful tour guide who is very passionate about sharing his knowledge. He picked us up promptly from the cruise ship terminal in the morning and dropped us off at the airport later that day. It was a great way to spend the day and learn about Miami's history. We particularly enjoyed the private air boat ride in the Everglades and would highly recommend it.

Little Havana:
Steve was a very good tour guide. He was informative, helpful and a good driver. His knowledge of Miami was extensive and he was very accommodating taking time to stop for photographs and at locations we wanted especially to visit. Would recommend him to anyone wanting a personalized tour.

Everglades Shared Airboat:
We were disappointed (not with the guide, but with the length of time trying to locate an alligator). We felt as though there would have been very limited opportunity to come across one and it seemed as though we should be happy to see one in the cage instead. From what we have heard from others this is very common. I understand the wildlife aspect, but was expecting something different. Also disappointed in the speakers in the wildlife areas - could not understand one of them as he talked way too fast.
(I appreciate your feedback! As a result, I have changed airboat parks, as this park has become overrun with tour buses, and the staff has changed. My last airboat tour at the new park saw over 20 alligators!)

Everglades and Miami Highlights:
Touring Miami with Steve was wonderful. As well as seeing all the fantastic tourist sights, we saw and learned how Miami has grown and changed. It was fascinating. Thanks Steve.

My husband and I enjoyed spending a day with Steve recently while visiting Ft. Lauderdale. We requested a tour of Palm Beach. He did a fantastic job! We asked for history and architecture of that area, to have lunch at The Breakers Hotel and shop on Worth Avenue. He can do it all. And he throws in extras, too! He told us about the 8 up and coming trend setters in fashion and home decor from Palm Beach and West Palm. Steve is very easy to be around and to talk with. If you give him advance notice, he can custom just about anything for you. Worth the price for a tour from 9-5 pm! Steve can take you to Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Pam Beach, Sanibel....anywhere in SW Florida. Give Steve a call when you visit SW Florida! Thanks again, Steve, for a fun day!

Steve is so enthusiastic that he provides .. photos, which he uses in his car to supplement the story he is telling. His depth of knowledge is incredible. We not only saw Fort Lauderdale… we learned how it came into being and has grown through the ages. The Everglades airboat tour was delightful and skillfully organized, as was the visit to the ..alligator exhibit and wildlife sanctuary. Steve knew everybody, wherever we went, as was able to fast track access.

Steve arrived right on schedule and we headed out. Our tour of Miami started as promised in Little Havana and lasted more than the scheduled 6 hours as we did hit a lot of traffic.

Lucien D.
Steve informed us in that 6 hour tour with a great knowledge of that nice city. We saw the most interesting places and heard the history of it. After this we certainly are returning and now we can look at it with totally other eyes. Everyone should start with this tour and stay after for some more time.
James O.
Steve picked us up promptly in a nice comfortable sedan, and proceeded to give us an excellent tour of Miami. He is very professional yet extremely personable, and just a font of local knowledge. The way he ties together history and local lore really makes for an insightful experience. In all of our many years of travel we had never hired a local guide for a one-day tour, but we found this to be very worthwhile, and Steve has set the bar quite high for any future guides we might hire. GREAT JOB !!!

We had a great private Miami tour after our 7 day cruise. Steve was amazing, he understood of our state of exhaustion after a week of fun in the Caribbean!

Take this tour if you can fit it into your travels plans, very much worth it!

Steven is an excellent guide who knew the history of Miami and many interesting stories one does not find in the history books. His knowledge of the area is outstanding and I would recommend him very highly. He also had local gossip which was great.

Very informative tour of the history of Miami. Toured in the car for most of the day and through different neighborhoods. Steven was very knowledgeable about the history of the areas and what tied them all together. Very interesting day.
Laurie K.
We enjoyed our day to Key West. It's a long drive from Fort Lauderdale to Key West, but Steve made the miles go by quickly with stories and information about the area. He was very accommodating, helpful, knowledgeable, and has a great sense of humor. It was a cold windy day on the Key so it was wonderful to have a private bus to get us around. After a very interesting 16 hour day to was also very wonderful to be dropped off at our door.
Sandy S.
We thoroughly enjoyed our Miami city tour by Steve. He was knowledgeable, personable and professional. It was exceptionally helpful that he was licensed for pick up directly at the Fort Lauderdale port, and was willing to do a drop off at the airport at the end of the day. Steve provided a wonderful picture of the city with stories, humor, history and flavor and we would highly recommend him!
Joan L.
Steven phoned while we were still on our cruise ship, preparing to depart: he was ready whenever we were! The drive from MIA to Fort Lauderdale was filled with stories of the modern day leaders, their roads to success and their impact on Florida and the nation. Once in Fort Lauderdale, the conversation shifted to the founders and we were able to see the sites where the settlement began and then grew into the modern city. Steven was then kind enough to drop us at MIA for a flight home. PERFECT DAY!
