Miami Cruise Reviews

We did the Grand Tour excursion, Everglades National Park for airboat ride. Nice tour, saw 1 alligator. We have been there before many times but it's an hour away from Port. Toured Miami and walked on south beach. Went to little Havana and had lunch. We to the Bayside market place ro walk around and shop. Overall a long day but so nice. Ship is pretty close to the port. ...

Go to Miami Beach, eat and take in the scenery, in particular by the strip where the ship goes in and out of port. Fun vibe and so many great places to eat. ...

We had a late flight so we did a South Beach tour, we enjoyed the tour and food in Little Havana!! ...

Embarking the ship was fine but disembarking was horrible. Long lines (even though we had time slots?) with employees just directing people to cut in wherever. ...

Miami has a lot to do and we found a great place to stay at the bricknell. There's a great Argentinian restaurant kitty corner from it. That was phenomenal. We would definitely go back.

Lots of other ...

The gentleman that was at the entrance of the garage was helpful on where to find spots in the garage and there was a bus that pulled up to take us to the terminal. ...

The port was nice and did the job. Everything is well labeled and easy to find. My only tip is... leave plenty of time to get there. You have to cross one bridge to get onto the island that the port is based on. When there are cruises are leaving traffic takes a LONG time to get there. ...

We chose a "Daycation" through Daycation.com -- you can sign up for a 20% first time discount. We chose a hotel in Miami Beach that offered free baggage hold, access to their pool, beach and umbrellas. Food/drink were additional. We chose the Hotel Riu, and liked it enough. The hotel next door offered nicer cushioned beach lounge chairs which would have been nice. We took a cab from the Pier ...
