This is a MUST DO in Little Havana. We started our 3-day stay with this walking tour, and it set the tone for our entire trip. Danny was our tour guide, and he’s hands-down, THE BEST! I’ve been on lots of walking tours in my life, and this one tops the list! Danny was knowledgeable about the history of the area. He was entertaining. He is a local celebrity! But most importantly, we felt a connection to the community through Danny’s engagement with store owners, community members, and even passers by. Danny was warm and happy and saw to our every request and comfort. You can tell he’s proud of Little Havana, its people, and its heritage! A thousand stars!

This is the tour you want. Danny is the perfect guide: a local resident who cares about his clients. You will leave with an understanding of the history of Little Havana, the current residents and definitely the Foods! Come hungry, you will find the variety and flavors fantastic.

Danny was terrific! He gave us a lot of historical info about the area, took us to some delicious food spots, and kept us entertained the entire time! This man is a local legend, and is very well travelled and knowledgeable. I had been to Little Havana a couple times previously, but this tour gave me a deeper appreciation and understanding of the area. Highly recommend Danny!! Thank you - R and D
