- 830leeannb0 contributionsWow! Wow! Wow!My friends and I went on this amazing tour this past Saturday. This was a pre-launch tour with Noel, our tour guide. Noel is friendly, funny, and extremely knowledgeable. He made the entire tour fun and exciting. Little Havana is very scenic with lots of energy. We went many different places and developed a true sense of all that Little Havana has to offer. The restaurant was stunning, the small plates were artistically presented, and the food was beyond delicious. Regla the singer's voice is captivating, and her songs truly enhanced the whole dining experience. We felt we truly had experienced Cuban culture at its finest. Please, please sign up for this tour!! You will see a part of Miami that many people miss, and you will have a wonderful afternoon enjoying the Cuban culture. Ask for Noel!!Written 1 March 2024

“WOW”. What a great tour of the Little Havana area in Miami. We had an extra day to spend before the start of our Caribbean cruise. The two hour easy walking tour in the heart of Little Havana was great and would highly recommend this tour. The big thing that made this tour so great was the 32 year old Cuban born tour guide-Orlando. His knowledge of Cuba, past and present through his eyes plus those of his parents and grandparents added so much to the tour. Another great thing, was how he incorporated so many local stories and experiences that he had researched from many of the local businesses and families that had migrated from Cuba over the many years. Another positive factor with this tour was the small group size which allowed for closer access in buildings and allowing for easier questions/answers with the tour guide. Well done. Thank you Orlando!!!

Highly recommend Miami Wow Tours if you are looking for a personal small group walking tour of Little Havana. Our tour guide Orlando was fantastic, he was engaging and knowledgeable and gave us great insight into Cuban culture, politics and history. Plus it was interesting how his personal story was woven through out the tour. We learnt much more about Little Havana and Cuba than would would have explored the area on our own. We enjoyed tasting Cuban coffee, fresh Mango juice and a delicious guava pastelito! We saw all the sites including cigar making, domino park, and colourful art murals. Covering everything at an affordable price $49 Adult $39 Child. A great choice!

At the beginning of our vacation, we spent a Sunday afternoon with Noel and, WOW, did he set the bar high for the rest of our 3 week vacation! What an engaging storyteller and ambassador of all things Cuban! Though we had delicious Cuban sandwiches, pastries, and coffee, this is not just another food tour. Noel made Cuban history and the Cuban-American experience come alive as wove in his own family’s experiences. We learned so much and enjoyed every minute! In fact, returning home, I find myself sharing his stories with friends. On a return trip to Miami (and there definitely will be one), we won’t hesitate hitting replay this Sunday afternoon and booking this tour again. You’ll be glad you included this tour in your visit to Miami….highly recommend!

Orlando’s story was truly impressive and enthralling. Such a brave soul! He embodies the American dream and spirit.
He has first-hand experience of living in Cuba for 26 years, he is great at impressing you with it. He knows and shares the stories of other people who made the trip from Cuba to America like he did. Many people he knows. Most beautiful little Havana. I felt like I was in Cuba!!

We learned more than we ever imagined thanks to Orlando, who knows the ins and outs of Cuba and the CubanAmerican experience, which must be understood in their proper context as two elements of a hybrid culture.
Tour was full of deep insights multiple perspectives: politics, religion, history, culinary traditions, and the list goes on.
We were “wowed” by the tour from start to finish thanks to Orlando’s good humor, energy, knowledge, and willingness to share his personal story.

Noel was an amazing and knowledgeable tour guide! He provided a plethora of information about Cuban history, culture, and notable landmarks in Little Havana. Noel was entertaining to listen to and treated everyone like family on the tour. We enjoyed exploring Calle Ocho, tasting pastels and cafecito for the first time, dancing, and learning the threads of symbolism in Cuban artwork. The murals were vibrant and memorable and the people watching and music made us laugh. Touring Little Havana was a highlight of our trip to Miami and I would gladly look forward to taking another tour with Noel in a heartbeat!

A must-do!! Upon our arrival we were greeted by our guide Orlando, with a warm welcome. He immediately began to give us a quick run down of what to expect, and by all means he went beyond! He is hilarious and very knowledgeable and made us feel as if we were in Cuba. His friendly personality made us feel like family and not like “just another tourist” his way of explaining kept us engaged as he shared his personal life stories from his hometown in Cuba. He gave us a taste of Cuba with the “Cortadito” (coffee), pastelitos, and the BEST mango fresh juice we have ever tasted!!! In 2 hours we learned so much about their culture, religion, and politics. If you’re looking for a tour that is worth every penny, book with them NOW!!! You will be WOW’D
Orlando, thank you sooooo much!! 🌴♥️🇨🇺

This tour was excellent. It was a whole lot more than we were expecting. Our guide Noel has first class. He happily shared his own experiences about growing up in Little Havana having come from Cuba as a young child. It's a very interesting story. His knowledge about all things Cuban was outstanding. We enjoyed every minute of this tour from the cigar making, the art viewing and of course the delicious sandwich and pastry. You will not be disappointed with this tour. We loved it!

We booked this tour, having been attracted by the promise of a small group and a local, knowledgeable guide. We were not disappointed. Our guide was Orlando, who was amazing . . . He shared his knowledge and personal experiences, which made this tour unique, humbling and a joy. The businesses we visited were family run and genuine, which added to the authenticity of our experience. Absolutely recommend that this is the experience you book if you want a true flavour of Little Havana and the Cuban community. Thank you to Orlando and our fellow tour participant for a great time!

Orlando was amazing. He is so knowledgeable of Cuba and Little Havana. He is a great storyteller and kept us interested and entertained at the same time. We all learned so much from him. The Cuban coffee was the best coffee I’ve ever tasted. I highly recommend this tour with Orlando. Thank you, Orlando.
