Driving around Miami in an open top sports car is a cool idea but pretty soon the parking situation will raise the temperature. Of course most hotels offer valet parking but sometimes you want to stop in between and in general parking can be very difficult. Nor is Miami renowned for its public transport system, fortunately there are plenty of taxis available, this is generally the recommended way around town.
