2. There are many different adventures for different clients. We love to shop so we had a great time visiting the Lincoln Road Mall. We also loved renting bikes and riding on the boardwalk!

3. Try the restaurants the locals eat in! Stay away from the tourist trap eateries and ask around. Also, safety in numbers! Research nightlife before you go out. And enjoy the emerald waters!

4. Be open to experience more than just South Beach! Miami is a city rich with culture. There are many neighborhoods to explore off the beach! Drive off the beach and take a walking self-guided tour of the Wynwood arts district or Little Havana. Don't be afraid to explore the city; however always remember to remain safe.

5. Spend an afternoon/night and visit the Bayside Marketplace. You can shop low to high end items/trinkets, variety of food choices, jump on a boat tour or just enjoy a walk off the water all in one place!

6. My #1 travel tip would be to don’t forget your sunscreen. The beaches are enjoyable in the day and romantic at night. The nightlife is electrifying with exquisite dining and dancing. It's a fun party town.

7. Miami is electric and wonderful however, not every hotel fits every traveler’s needs. There is a huge difference between South Beach, Miami Beach, and North Miami Beach. And be aware of the heavy traffic in that area. Always allow extra time when quoting distances.
