Villa Vizcaya is one of the most important monuments in Miami. This ticket gives you the opportunity visit its museum and gardens through which you can get to know the past of one of the most famous cities in the United States, learning how it turned into a major metropolis at the beginning of the 1920s.
Tour Highlights
Having picked you up at your hotel, we make our way to Villa Vizcaya, which was the winter residence of the collector James Deering, and whose construction inspired the luxurious Villa Italiana. It can be found in the exclusive Vizcaya Bay, where the millionaire ended up living on the advice of his doctors; his anaemia led them to recommend a climate of sun and sea.
Once there you can check out its museum, in which you will learn of the history of Miami, which in the 1920s began to become the great metropolis we know today. And you'll see how the wealthy in this period created luxury houses which they took as model European palaces.
You'll also have the opportunity to pass through its orchid filled gardens, which will transport you 100 years back in time, and head out to contemplate the views from the pier.
