How this all started.
I started in 2016 giving free tours on GuruWalk because I wanted people to understand Miami for real — not the Instagram version, but the neighborhoods with history, with contradiction, with layers. I thought it would be temporary. It wasn't.
The first person who paid me was a man from Seville who said: "What you just explained about Calle Ocho — I didn't see that in any guidebook." That comment stayed with me. I've spent years trying to make sure every tour has that moment — the moment when someone understands something that wasn't in the books.
I know Little Havana because I've walked it hundreds of times and because I have friends who live there and correct me when I'm wrong. I know Wynwood because I've watched murals disappear overnight and new ones appear the next morning. I know South Beach because I've read everything written about the Art Deco district and because the Versace Mansion has fascinated me since I was eighteen.
I keep groups small because the tour I want to give doesn't work with twenty people. I need to be able to stop in front of something and have everyone see it and ask questions. I need to be able to say: "Wait — there's something down this alley I want to show you."
If you have questions before booking, write to me. I answer, not a platform.
What guests say.

“I had walked Ocean Drive twice on my own and thought I understood it. After two hours with her I realized I had seen nothing. The architectural history alone is worth the trip.”
“The side streets in Wynwood that nobody knows about — that's where the real art is. She showed us pieces that aren't in any guide, by artists whose names she actually knew personally.”
“She told us the Versace Mansion story in a way I had never heard — not the sensational version, the architectural one. What the building was before Versace, who built it, why it mattered to the neighborhood. Completely different from what you find online.”
“We did the Art Basel week tour and she knew which pieces had just gone up the night before. Small group, very personal, walked away knowing artists' names I actually looked up when I got back to Montreal.”
“I'm from Miami and I still learned things I didn't know. The history of Calle Ocho, what happened after 1959, why the neighborhood looks the way it does. A genuinely different perspective on a city I grew up in.”
