Hello! I was recently featured on CBS SUNDAY MORNING in a segment about Miami. I was selected as the top tour guide in Miami! I am a native of Miami Beach, a historical lecturer and tour guide for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, a certified Toastmaster and an amateur stand-up comic. I hold a B. S. from Florida International University in Tourism and Hospitality Management and studied Improvisation and Sketch Comedy at the Second City in Hollywood, CA. I have a passion for Miami and what I do, and have been guiding for 13 years giving an array of historical, cultural and culinary tours. I spend my free time researching history, attending local lectures and touring historical locations and museums. I enjoy participating in storytelling contests and open mic nights. I have been traveling the world since I was just a year old (my father was a NOAA Oceanographer and we joined him on many research missions). I work with local organizations giving cultural and historical community tours once a month. I am a member of HistoryMiami, Vizcaya, Toastmasters and the Daughters of the American Revolution Palm Beach chapter and the Historical Society of Palm Beach. I volunteer at and support the Fisher House at VA hospital in West Palm Beach. I love meeting people from around the world and creating lasting memories for them. I focus on tailoring each tour to my guests particular interests and make 6 star service my standard. I have created many special and unique experiences for a birthdays, anniversaries, family reunions and more! No request is too big. I will make our day (or multiple days) the highlight of your trip. See you soon and have a STELLAR day!

Overview of your Miami tour
Beat the heat!! Escape the heat and rain as we drive the city in my luxury 2026 SUV to explore Miami's most interesting neighborhoods. I started as a guide in 2012 and now I run a variety of private tours. On this FUN city tour, we will travel in a luxurious black Palisade Calligraphy SUV through Downtown Miami and the Brickell Financial District, to the bohemian and Bahamian Coconut Grove, and into Coral Gables to the Biltmore hotel. As a native of Miami, I promise to leave you feeling like a local when we are done, but keep you laughing along the way.

Stella is one of the most accommodating tour guides we have ever had the pleasure of doing business with! Long story short, storms caused our flight to be diverted. Stella rearranged her day & her whole evening to help us out. She drove to our scheduled airport to pick us up. Unfortunately, we were stuck at a distant airport, waiting out the storm. Hours passed. Miami flooded & we had to cancel our tour. Even after all this, Stella moved our tour to the next morning. She went above & beyond to make sure we were still able to complete the tour. We appreciated that she was always quick to reply to my messages throughout it all. She was punctual, friendly, courteous, & very knowledgeable of the Miami area. Stella was a bright ray of sunshine in the midst of all our travel woes & weather issues. She even dropped us off at the cruise port afterwards. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

We loved our tour with Stella! She is very knowledgeable on many aspects of history and changes over time of the area, and she expertly adapted the tour as she got to know us and our interests. Thank you Stella!

Our group of 20 had a customized tour with Stella. We had the BEST time on our 2.5 hours boat tour (the boat rental was with a separate company). The tour consisted of narration by Stella and included a mixture of Miami's history and pop culture, which was the right mix for our multi-generational group. Stella was pleasant, ON TIME, and knowledgeable - a total pro!
Paul S.United States
Loved our tour of greater Miami with Stella and her terrific knowledge of the history of the area. Would have given Stella 10 stars if we could! We use ToursByLocals.com around the globe and our tour with Stella today was one of our most enjoyable!!! Paul & Sarah, Chicago, Illinois
