Overview & Highlights
Florida is a year-round destination brimming with vibrant culture, natural wonders, and unforgettable experiences. From the irresistible Latin flavours and electric nightlife of Miami to the astounding wildlife of the Everglades and the pristine, turquoise shores of the Florida Keys, this is a journey that captures the very essence of the Sunshine State.
On this 6-day itinerary, you’ll begin in Miami Beach, where art deco glamour meets golden sands and a lively culinary scene. Stroll along Ocean Drive, sip cocktails under swaying palms, and get a taste of people-watching as you immerse yourself in the city’s unique blend of cosmopolitan energy and laid-back beach vibes. While here you can discover the Art Deco Historic District on a guided walking tour, admire the bold street art at Wynwood Walls, or wander the elegant Vizcaya Museum & Gardens, a peaceful escape on Biscayne Bay.
Next, venture into the Everglades, one of the USA’s most iconic wildlife preserves. Here, you’ll stay amid untamed beauty, exploring Everglades National Park and spotting alligators, exotic birds, and lush subtropical landscapes. Why not experience the wetlands up close on an exhilarating airboat tour or dive deeper into the ecosystem through a ranger-led programme. It’s a chance to reconnect with nature in a setting unlike anywhere else on earth.
Your adventure continues with one of the world’s most scenic drives along the Overseas Highway through the Florida Keys — often hailed as one of the most spectacular roads in the world. Each island offers its own charm, from quirky roadside cafés to breath-taking ocean views, with unforgettable moments such as soaking up the scenery at Seven Mile Bridge. Your journey culminates in Key West, where pastel-hued streets, the historic Hemingway Home with its famous six‑toed cats, and the tranquil shores of Fort Zachary Taylor State Park await. Think legendary sunsets at Mallory Square and a carefree island spirit that will stay with you long after you leave.
This itinerary promises Florida at its finest: sun-soaked beaches, thrilling wildlife encounters, and a road trip that’s nothing short of extraordinary.

Our expert's opinion
“Florida is highly underrated as a destination for wildlife and natural beauty. The range of things you can see there is incredible: the fiery sunsets over South Beach, the tranquil turquoise waters of the Keys, and the enormous alligators and crocodiles that live in the Everglades. Forget the theme parks of Orlando, Florida has so much more to offer! ”
