Our tour was absolutely outstanding. Our tour guide, Lee, was the reason our tour was so wonderful! He brought the facts, the history, the excitement and passion for Cuba and Little Havana that no one else could ❤️. His relationship with the vendors and restaurants is unique and exciting. We felt like we were on the most private “insiders” version of a Little Havana Tour. We already told the concierge at our hotel Bobby’s Bike Tours is #1. Thank you Lee for making our experience here in Miami that much more memorable.

We did the tour with Judina, it was really interesting and the food and drinks were fantastic. it was easy to get to the starting point, Judina called us earlier in the day to make sure we had no food allergies etc and could participate in all the tastings etc. We would recommend Judina's tour to everyone as she was extremely knowledgeable and very pleasant company for the 3 hours; she made it her business to make sure our party of 14 stayed together and all got to hear her tales and stories; we were very pleased that we did the tour and had a great time.

We chose this tour last minute as we were winging it for the day. We were so happy with our choice! Lee was our tour guide and was so friendly and knowledgeable. He is from Cuba and shared his personal experience with us, which was the best part. The walking tour was fun, we had perfect weather. The food was amazing, we were stuffed! We would highly recommend this tour. - Jordan & Maria
