Cultural Fort Lauderdale Shopping Tour

Enjoy the history and charm of old Fort Lauderdale with the Cultural Fort Lauderdale package. Visit historical museums and learn about the city's earliest residents, then treat yourself to a shopping trip at the Galleria of Fort Lauderdale. Your first stop will be the Fort Lauderdale Historical Society's Museum of History and the King-Cromartie House Museum. The museum provides a historical account of natives in the Fort Lauderdale area as far back as 5,000 years ago and spans through the city's early twentieth century history.

Next, visit the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens, featuring 1920s American artist Frederic Clay Bartlett and his family. This museum includes 35-acres of subtropical groups, Bartlett's artwork, and monkeys and foxes on the grounds. It's truly a unique place to visit. Your next stop will be the Stranahan House, a historic building built originally as a trading post by settlers and Seminole Indians, and then later as a post office, a bank, a town hall, a restaurant, and finally a private residence.

Finally, end your day with a change of pace at the sophisticated Galleria Fort Lauderdale. Enjoy such retailers as Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Ann Taylor, and more. Take a break and dine in style at Seasons 52, Blue Martini, The Capital Grille, or other fine restaurants.
