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! Bachelor of Science - Hospitality Management and Tourism Certified Toastmaster The Acting Studio - Summer Program (Improvisation, Voice and Diction, Basics of Acting) The Second City Theatre School, Los Angeles: completion of courses in Improvisation and Sketch Comedy Insurance by Next CPR/AED Certified None

Overview of your Miami tour

Are you ready for a titillating VIP tour of Miami while learning about salacious crimes and spooky ghost stories? 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.

Lucky find on the website amazing guide knowledgeable intelligent flexible and accommodating very comfortable new car and Stella is a very skillful driver who knows her ways around Miami area She adjusted the tour content based on our interests and logistics of the traffic She always has water in the car drops you off at the sites and then parks the car Unlike some guides who are wasting time looking for parking then you have to walk back Highly recommended
