Daily tours run by local volunteer enthusiasts from the South Beach architectural preservation society. Excellent on history of art deco buildings and styles, visits to some buildings and gives a great intro to SoBe.

More than a museum, more a way of life for Mr Wolfson who travelled the globe collecting artifacts from 1895 to 1945 and then didn't have a place to put them. So he built a museum. Seeing it all together gives real insight into the most interesting 50-year period in the 20th century. Great stuff in the gift shop.

One of America's early multi-millionaires built it, lived in it, and brought back millions of dollars worth of furniture and art from Europe to decorate it. It's worth the price of admission to see how rich people lived in those days. Sly Stallone used to own the house next door.

Take I-95 all the way to the end where it becomes Route 1 and follow the signs. You can probably book ahead.
