Description

Experience the best of Fort Lauderdale with See Sight Tours. On this 4-hour guided tour, a local guide will guide you through the city to see the local sights and explore why people call it the Venice of America. Your visit includes convenient round-trip hotel transport, attraction admission, and a comfortable vehicle that make this tour completely hassle free and thoroughly enjoyable.

You’ll start off with a relaxing scenic drive through Hugh Taylor Birch State Park; Fort Lauderdale’s equivalent to Central Park. Situated between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean, this tranquil sanctuary provides an insight into the untouched Florida subtropical wilderness. You’ll pass under a galaxy of oak and palm trees, see residents going for a jog or a picnic and possibly spot a gopher tortoise or two. The drive invites you to slow down, relax and take in the tranquil rhythm of nature.

Next, the tour guide takes you to the artistic past at the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens. This vibrant, 1920s estate was once the winter home of artists Frederic and Evelyn Bartlett. As you wander through its historic chambers and lush outdoors, you will begin to understand the couple’s artistic legacy and love of nature. The estate’s mix of Caribbean-style architecture, whimsical decor and lush gardens is at once nostalgically timeless and distinctly personal.

The tour then continues to Los Olas Boulevard, a bustling section of Fort Lauderdale with a modern edge. It’s filled with small boutiques, galleries, restaurants and shops, and is always buzzing with excitement. You’ll have plenty of time to explore the area, and see both an old charm and the coastal village that it has become today.

The Best of Fort Lauderdale tour finishes with a boat cruise on the Carrie B that gives you an intimate look at the City from the water. Watch as you pass Millionaire’s Row - fancy homes, sky high yachts at Bahia Mar Marina, Hyatt Pier 66, and the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Grande. You can walk around in the boat and go to the upper sun deck or indoor cabin for postcard-worthy photos.

After a thoroughly immersive experience, you’ll be dropped off at your hotel – having seen Fort Lauderdale from the most iconic and authentic perspective.
