Miami Night Tours

Miami Night Tours Map

Miami night tours start from a waterfront mall, a marina, a river car park, a South Beach kerb and two farms far to the south-west. The one that confuses people most is Bayside, where several operators share one waterfront. Find the start printed on your Miami Night tickets booking here, with the way in to each.

Bayside Marketplace: three boarding points in one mall

Bayside Marketplace is at 401 Biscayne Blvd, downtown, with a paid garage and two van-accessible spaces on the south service road. Three operators start here, and each uses its own spot.

Miami Aqua Tours: Head for the Ferris wheel opposite Hard Rock Cafe, take the stairs down to the dock and line up at Landshark Bar & Grill. Arrive 30 minutes early.

Fiesta Cruises: The ticket booth at Pier 5, slips 11 and 12, behind Tasca Paella.

Big Bus: Stop #1 at Bayside. The listing and Big Bus's own page describe it in different places, so follow the stop printed on your ticket and allow time to find it.

Travellers have boarded the wrong boat here. Check the operator's name on the boat before you step aboard.

Venetian Marina, Pier 3

Aqua Party Boat's sunset, karaoke and true-crime cruises board at Venetian Marina, at 1635 N Bayshore Dr, just north of downtown. Walk straight to the Pier 3 entrance gate, where the crew in black or blue polo shirts checks you in. Do not go to the marina store or office.

There is no parking on site, so allow time for the street or a garage nearby. The sunset boat's listing names a free Miami Beach water taxi, Monday to Friday, that stops at the marina.

Know which dock you need?

See the top night tours with the dock each one leaves from, and book the one nearest your hotel.

The Miami River: the private boat and the kayak

The private boat: A marina at 2610 NW 18th Terrace, west of downtown on the Miami River. It has no parking of its own; the street parking is about two blocks away. The restroom is at the marina.

The LED kayak: Parking lot 17 under I-95, at 204 SW 3rd St, downtown on the river. Look for lot 17; there are no toilets at the launch, though restaurants are nearby.

South Beach: Mango's, the W and the Big Bus's second stop

The salsa night: The Mojito Room, on the second floor of Mango's Tropical Cafe, 900 Ocean Dr. Your table is ready from 7:30pm.

The panoramic bus: In front of the W Hotel South Beach, at 22nd St and Miami Beach Dr.

Big Bus on Fridays to Sundays: Stop #3 at Soundscape Park, 1680 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, at 8:01pm.

Downtown pickups, Wynwood and the club rooftop

The van and the wheel: Pickup from any downtown Miami hotel, and downtown only.

The pedal pub: THRōW Social in Wynwood: use the side gate on NE 24th St, not the front entrance on N Miami Ave.

The club night: The pre-party is on a downtown rooftop, and you make your own way there. The clubs are about a 15-minute ride-share from most hotels.

The ATV farms, far south-west

The night ATV rides are on farms at the rural south-west edge of Miami. No ATV fare includes transport, so plan a car or a ride-share both ways.

The Redland ATV park: 15450 SW 172nd Ave, Miami, FL 33187. Park inside the gate by the American flag, and a shuttle takes you to the ATVs. The address works in Uber, Google Maps and Waze only.

The glow ATV ride: FarmHouse Miami, the operator's farm. Your ticket gives the pin.
