Fort Lauderdale Beach
Golden sand framed by palms and a breezy promenade. It’s Miami’s glamour, but at a gentler pace.
Las Olas Boulevard
Trendy boutiques, galleries and restaurants make this the city’s style strip. Perfect for a lazy afternoon or lively evening.
Intracoastal Waterway Cruise
Glide through canals lined with yachts and mansions. It’s a casual, scenic way to see why the city’s called the “Venice of America.”
Riverwalk Arts & Entertainment District
A leafy riverside walkway linking theatres, museums and galleries. It’s cultural, but with a relaxed, waterfront feel.
Everglades Excursion
An airboat skimming across the sawgrass is classic Florida. Alligators surface, herons take flight—it’s wild, raw and unforgettable.
