Wonderful experience, and so pleased I chose this tour. A unique aspect of the tour is the tour company owner is also the tour guide – Danny. He is extremely knowledgeable about the neighborhood and all the history surrounding it and has lived within it for over 20 years. He was like the mayor of Little Havana, knowing people by name all along the tour. it was obvious that Danny loves sharing his knowledge of little Havana with new people every day.

This was a fun and delicious way to learn more about Little Havana. Our tour guy was knowledgeable and he introduced us to many local shop owners and restaurant competitors. We had more than enough to eat and learned a lot about the local culture. Highly recommend!
