While my husband and I were walking around Bayside Marketplace in MIami, Florida a few years ago, we couldn’t miss the huge Ferris wheel, which they call the Skyviews Miami Observation Wheel. Whatever you want to call it, it is huge and towers almost 200 feet above the Bayside Marketplace.
We didn’t do a ride, but apparently, there are unparalleled views of Biscayne Bay, Bayfront Park, as well as the Downtown Miami skyline. There are 42 gondolas that are climate controlled where it’s always 72 degrees. Sounds like it would be nice when it’s a hot day. One of the gondolas is actually a VIP gondola and features leather bucket seats, a custom LED light show and a glass-bottom floor. I have to say, it better be 72 or with leather seats, you may lose some skin if you are wearing shorts, lol.
In all seriousness, it sounds like something cool to do and the ride does last 12 to 15 minutes. Below is information about prices, hours, etc.
