Miami Bus & Boat Sightseeing Tour

Discover Miami from two different perspectives with a sightseeing experience combining an open-top bus tour through the city with a 90-minute boat cruise on Biscayne Bay.

Travel through some of Miami's most recognizable neighborhoods and districts, including Little Havana, Wynwood, the Art Deco District, Downtown Miami, and Miami Beach, while learning more about the city's culture, history, and landmarks.

Then head to Bayside Marketplace and continue your Miami sightseeing experience from the water, cruising Biscayne Bay with views of the Miami skyline, surrounding islands, and celebrity mansions.

Explore Miami by Open-Top Bus

The land portion of your Miami bus and boat tour takes you through some of the city's most popular areas aboard an open-top double-decker bus.

Your guided sightseeing route may include:

  • Downtown Miami
  • Little Havana
  • Wynwood Arts District
  • Miami Beach
  • Art Deco District
  • Bayside Marketplace

Enjoy commentary along the way while seeing how Miami's neighborhoods, architecture, art, and culture change throughout the city.

The bus portion lasts approximately 2.5 hours.

90-Minute Biscayne Bay Boat Tour

After exploring Miami by land, continue your sightseeing experience on the water with a 90-minute cruise on Biscayne Bay.

From the bay, enjoy a different perspective of Miami and its waterfront while cruising past some of the area's islands, luxury homes, and recognizable landmarks.

Depending on the route and operating conditions, views may include:

  • Miami skyline
  • Star Island
  • Celebrity mansions
  • Fisher Island
  • Port of Miami
  • Biscayne Bay
  • Surrounding islands and waterfront areas

The boat portion offers a relaxing contrast to the city sightseeing experience and lets you discover Miami from both land and water in the same tour.

Miami by Land & Water in One Tour

Instead of choosing between a Miami city tour and a Biscayne Bay cruise, this experience combines both into one sightseeing itinerary.

The Bus & Boat tour is particularly suited to first-time visitors who want to see several sides of Miami without booking separate sightseeing activities.

You'll experience the city's neighborhoods and landmarks from the open-top bus before seeing the Miami waterfront, skyline, islands, and celebrity homes from Biscayne Bay.

Free Time at Bayside Marketplace

Between the bus and boat portions, you'll arrive at Bayside Marketplace.

Depending on the day's schedule, you'll have time to explore the waterfront area, grab a snack or drink, shop, or relax before boarding your Biscayne Bay cruise.
