The real Miami is unfolding on Calle Ocho, where the air smells of fresh espresso and hand-rolled cigars, and every block tells a story of survival, soul, and incredible food. On this walk through Little Havana, a neighbourhood designated a National Treasure, you'll taste 7+ authentic Cuban dishes: flaky guava pastelitos, savory ham croquetas, a perfectly pressed Cuban sandwich, crispy mariquitas, and a full traditional Cuban meal. Wash it all down with a Cuban coffee, a social ritual locals swear by. Along the way, you'll visit the Bay of Pigs Monument, go behind the scenes at a real cigar factory, and wrap up at legendary Domino Park, where the tiles click and the laughter never stops. One more thing: a surprise Secret Dish, revealed only on the day. Book your spot in a small group, or make it yours entirely. Private options are available for those who want the full experience to themselves.
