If you are planning a trip to Miami we have a list of the top ten things you must do. Miami is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. Making this list is quite a feat. Anytime you travel to Miami you are sure to have a good time, we just provide this information to add some value to your trip.

#1 Miami Children's Museum - What an experience for all ages. There are tours that are bilingual so everyone can enjoy them. They have educational classes and plenty of displays.

#2 Miami Art Museum - Art from as early as the forties. This place is a great place to so see some beautiful sculptures as well as paintings and photography.

#3 Vizcaya Museum and Gardens - This was the winter get away for John Deering in 1914. They have the main house kept up and it contains much of the original art and furniture. There is also a large 10 acre spread which includes gardens and restored buildings.

#4 Miami Seaquarium - In operation since about 1955 this is where the famous Flipper show was filmed. Take a dip with some dolphins and see the fantastic displays at this great attraction.

#5 Offshore Rockets - The people that worked on Miami Vice are glad to share with you the thrills of jet power boats. You can learn all about them in your visit.

#9 Miami Nice Tours - This group offers tours of various things around Miami. You can go snorkeling take a day tour of the Everglades and go see the beautiful Key West.

#10 Island Queen - These are beautiful cruises of the Biscayne Bay that not only do you get to see, but get told about the area.
