Madonna’s former mansion, The Miami Herald Building, Bay of Pigs Memorial, and the Art Deco Fish Wall in South Beach. These are just some of the things you’ll see at Paul’s Travel Pictures today.

We’re excited to announce the availability of never-before-seen images taken during our City Tour. This collection of images includes photos taken and owned by Paul on October 9, 2008.

As you can see, Paul is a talented photographer. I’m amazed he was able to get such great shots from inside a moving bus.

Paul had this to say about the tour…

As a photography enthusiast, I really enjoyed being able to get entire skyscrapers into frame right from my seat. The large “picture” windows on the bus extended from just below my elbow almost all the way up to the ceiling. It was also helpful that the windows were spotlessly clean on the inside and out.”

It has been a thrill for us to explore the archive, filled with over 250 images of Miami. See some classic shots like the entrance to Vizcaya and Little Havana documenting highlights from the tour, capturing the architecture and skyline, and opening windows on the City.

One of my favorites is this candid shot of our driver Ricky getting ready to start the tour.

Paul also took a nice picture of our big bus parked at the Loews Hotel.

Once you are in the archive, you’ll also notice that you can access a full-size version of each image simply by clicking on the picture itself on the index page.

So please take a look for yourself and experience these realistic photos of our City Tour. Your exploration will be limited only by your imagination and your desire to keep on clicking. See the Pictures

Be sure to check back often as more photos and videos from the City Tour will be added to MiamiBeach411. We hope that you come join us on a tour soon!
