This tour is planned and guided by a Black-owned tour operator that has partnered with other Black-owned local businesses and cultural attractions to level the playing field for underrepresented businesses and neighborhoods to actively participate in the travel and tourism industry. When you book with us, you are helping to sustain these small businesses. Plus, you will meet locals in off the beaten path neighborhoods who will immerse you in their rich Black cultural heritage.
10% of profits from our itineraries are donated to our non-profit partner, Cultural Heritage Economic Alliance, Inc., to provide technical assistance and capacity building to our tour partners from underserved communities.
Each of our tours are designed to bridge the past to the present, and offer a broader narrative of the American Black experience, sights and stories that are little known or unknown.

Historic Overtown Tour
Historic Overtown Tour
Explore Black Cultural Heritage in Historic Overtown
Become immersed in rich Black history and culture found in Historic Overtown, one of the oldest neighborhoods within the original boundaries of the City of Miami. Adjacent to downtown Miami, Overtown is bordered on the north by N.W. 21st Street, to the south by N.W. 6th Street, the east by N.W. 1st Avenue and on the west by 1-95.

Segregated by both custom and laws, it began as “Colored Town” at the turn of the 20th century. The area was assigned and limited to black workers who built and serviced the railroad, streets and hotels. The success of Miami’s pioneer tourist industry depended on the labor of black workers from the Bahamas and the Southern states. For more than 50 years, they were the primary work force in Miami.

Experience Afro Cuban Cultural Heritage in Little Havana
Explore rich Afro-Cuban cultural heritage in a neighborhood full of character and soul. Little Havana hosts the largest Latino street festival in the U.S.: the annual Calle Ocho festival.

It is the first place many Cubans settled after fleeing Cuba, and is still a predominantly immigrant community with residents from across Latin America as well as Cuba. The famous Calle Ocho (SW 8th Street) boasts art galleries, live music and dance venues, plazas and public art, and many places where you can sample cigars, Cuban coffee, and both traditional and “fusion” Latin food.

The trip was cancelled at the last minute. I wasted my money on travel insurance and a cancelled flight.

We would like to do something for your inconvenience to offset any costs you incurred due to our cancellation. Please email our Managing Director, Amit Ariel, at aariel@experienceblackculture.com so we can see how we can assist with any loss.
