This was good because due to the speed of the Shuttle we actually went back in time 5 minutes which just gave us more time to enjoy the marvellous Miami!<br>We arrived at the <strong>Dollar Rent a Car<\/strong> check-in desk and got an upgrade for less money <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">(Check more in our <strong>Tips<\/strong> at the end of the post)<\/span>, this must only happen in America because we have never experienced anything remotely similar to this in Europe, we could just feel the American breeze on our skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the main reasons we decided to rent a car, was that we weren&#8217;t going to spend much time in Miami, so by driving ourselves around from location to location, we felt we could really make the most of it and see more in less time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We got to our hotel <strong>Candlewood Suites Miami Airport<\/strong> and quickly dropped off our suitcases so that we could start our tour of the city. <br>In order to pay an affordable price on New Year&#8217;s Eve, our hotel was about a 30 to 45-minute drive from Miami&#8217;s South Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-trawell-cat-2-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"key-biscayne\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Biscayne\"><\/span>Key Biscayne<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Key Biscayne is a key which has 2 natural parks, for which to get in, you need to pay (around 8$ per car) and pay again to park, but you forget all of that when you take a walk and arrive at a lighthouse located at <strong>Bill Baggs Beach<\/strong>. To get there, you walk down a path with palm trees on either side which takes you to <strong>Cape Florida Lighthouse<\/strong> and you can go up into the lighthouse!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

quite a few steps, 109 to be precise, and the staircase is very narrow and used by visitors going both up and down the steps, however, when you reach the top, you get to see the amazing 360\u00ba views of the beach, forest and if you&#8217;re lucky, manatees and sharks in the ocean below.<br>We recommend that you go up the final staircase (around 10 more steps) which will take you to the huge bulb at the very top of the Lighthouse. We found many visitors were just overlooking this and it is actually incredible to see and it&#8217;s allowed by the Park&#8217;s Rangers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From there, we took a short drive to <strong>Crandon Park<\/strong>, also located in Key Biscayne and the moment you step out of your car, you find yourself in a big park surrounded by wildlife like large birds of prey (similar to Eagles), squirrels and majestic peacocks.

starting from 5th St. to 17th St. You&#8217;ll also stumble upon Espa\u00f1ola Way known for its European buildings and restaurants, it&#8217;s a small narrow street full of life and music located on 14th St. to 15th St. and lastly <strong>Lincoln Road<\/strong> on 16th St. to 17th St. where you will find plenty of dining options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-trawell-cat-2-color has-text-color

Demonstration<\/strong> area which was included, which ended up being a small zoo. It was pretty sad as the few animals that were there were all living in small spaces, repeatedly walking around in circles like they were crazy.<br>They called it a sanctuary which means the animals have all been taken in or picked up after being abandoned, so we dread to think where these poor creatures were before they were rescued, and hopefully not extracted from their natural habitat just to be displayed to tourists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At around 11 am we were back in the car and we decided to change our clothes. Due to the horrible weather, we had decided to wear warmer clothes, raincoats and trainers ready for the airboat tour, but the sun was finally starting to shine and the temperatures were on the rise!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-trawell-cat-2-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"wynwood-walls\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wynwood_Walls\"><\/span>Wynwood Walls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We parked in Wynwood District to visit the famous graffiti works of art which fill the streets of that neighbourhood. It was an awesome place to visit and we genuinely felt like real influencers posing in front of graffiti, on every corner, several times. <em>#blessed #takemeback<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

The distance between tourist attractions is quite extensive, so getting behind the wheel of your car will allow you to visit much more in less time. Also, at the rental desk, don&#8217;t be shy to ask for an upgrade as sometimes it is cheaper than the standard car you booked. We hired the car with <strong>Dollar Rent a Car<\/strong> through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.economycarrentals.com\/?x02=2181\">Economy Car Rentals<\/a> and got a fantastic deal on a &#8220;luxury class&#8221; car. We ended up with a Chrysler 300C Sport for the price of a Hyundai Elantra.<br>There is a down-side, though, public and private parking is costly (about 4$ USD per hour for public)<\/li><li>If time permits, you cannot miss <strong>Orlando<\/strong> and its Theme Parks (Disney, NASA, Universal\u2026) and, of course, the Shopping Outlets for all you shopaholics out there! If you decide to drive, it will take about 4 hours from Miami.<\/li><li>If you are in Miami for about a week, we would highly recommend doing a <strong>3-day Bahamas cruise<\/strong>, as the hotels and apartments are quite pricey in Miami, the Cruise can be a fun and affordable solution for all types of travellers.<\/li><li>On<strong> <strong>New Year&#8217;s Eve<\/strong><\/strong>, we arrived at South Beach around 19:30, and we parked on the street easily.<\/li><li><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.civitatis.com\/en\/miami?aid=10923\" target=\"_blank\">Civitatis<\/a><\/strong> is an online booking platform for activities and guided tours that we tend to use for all of our trips for several reasons; the prices are great, they offer a wide variety of activities, they only use licensed tour guides, the second you pay for the tour you receive an email with everything you need to know about your activity, they always offer Free Tours in every city for which you pay a tip of your choice to the tour guide and lastly, they usually have tours in Spanish which are very useful when we travel with our Spanish family as we did on this trip. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.civitatis.com\/en\/miami?aid=10923\" target=\"_blank\">Take a look at everything you can do with Civitatis in Miami!<\/a><\/li><li><strong>The standard&nbsp;tip&nbsp;is 15%<\/strong>. If you are dissatisfied with the service, you may leave less, but if you were well served 20% is appreciated. Taxis work the same way.

We recommend you book your table in advance as the place is very small. <br>The decoration is perfect, the waiters and service staff are great, there was a chef preparing pasta in the window, the bathrooms were quirky, and they even prepare some of the dishes right in front of you at your table.
