My kids and I took the train from Miami Airport to Fort Lauderdale Airport. It cost us $5/ person and was very easy. You have to take a tram at MIA to the Transportation Center to catch the train. It is very easy to find. You just have to follow the signs. I purchased my tickets on the platform via a machine. We had our luggage with us, too, and there were no issues. The train was clean and was pretty wide open. It was also right on schedule, and they had armed security on the train. People bring their bikes on the train and secure them on racks. Once we got to the Fort Lauderdale Airport Station, we had to take a bus to the actual airport. The bus was packed, but it was only like a 5-minute ride. My little and I really enjoyed the ride. As I mentioned, it was a very easy and relaxing ride. It was a very easy and relaxing ride. I will be using this train a lot to get between FLL and MIA from now on.

Pros: I like this station because it is less congested than the nearby metro stations like Civic…read moreCenter. Usually there are not too many people waiting around to get on the metro and you get an extra jump on a seat on the train. Also plenty of parking to leave your car. Cons: I have heard of car break ins lately. Not sure how this happens because I always see security there looking but I guess this station is not in the most favorable area in town and things like this can happen anywhere, anytime.

These metro rail stations could use an upgrade to say the least. The county receives money to…read moreupgrade transportation, perhaps they should find ways to upgrade the transportation stations. The stations always smells of urine and the elevators are outdated. While I am sure they pass inspection yearly, they could still use an upgrade. For one they are way too small. When my son was stroller age, I could barely fit his stroller in the elevator. The wheels were barely able to fit through the elevator doors. Transportation itself is ok as long as the trains are not late or stuck on the track. Perhaps this was the motivation to replace the older the trains for newer ones. While I have seen the implementation of newer trains, all trains have not been replaced. I rode two older trains today that reeked of urine and were a little dirty. I am happy to see that they upgrading the trains however. I hope they keep that same energy and give the metro rail stations a makeover.

I've been taking the metro for a little over 6 years. Previously I'd go to the Okeechobee station…read morebut switched to the Palmetto station because of a scary incident I experienced and an acquaintance that was almost beat to death at Okeechobee station (no clue where the security guards were, probably sleeping as usual). Palmetto has an open parking lot which makes it easier to see what's going around. The security guards are attentive and they have one typically driving around the parking lot with a golf cart. If you need assistance or have questions for the most part they attempt to help you. The bathroom at this station needs so serious remodeling....I hate going in there because no matter how much they try to clean it it doesn't look like it (oh and don't expect paper towels to dry your hands because it seems that's non-existing in this place). Would love it if the metro left on scheduled time but a lot of times that doesn't happen thanks to every other metro being out of service (probably because they're so old). I do enjoy not having to deal with traffic so this is the best way to head to Downtown and nearby areas. Compared to other stations in the north this is probably one of the safest ones. Most people that ride from this station are headed to work, courts, or hospitals.

Positives: -There are security guards at all times. They…read morealso help with purchasing tickets at the kiosk if you're not sure how to do it. -The conductors are friendly and will answer whatever questions you have about the trains. -Trains usually depart at the same time. Very few times have I experienced trains running late. -Location is perfect, as it's only 10 min away from my house and very easy to get to, once you get past the Okeechobee traffic. Although there is a cargo train that runs through interrupting the street to get to the station. -There are hand sanitizing stations Negative: I am absolutely DISGUSTED that there is ONE restroom shared for both men and women. It wasn't like this about 6 months ago! They sealed off the ladies bathroom and made it so only staff could use it. So now the mens is the one that's open to both sexes. First of all, the very thought of using a restroom stall while a man is standing in there at the same time taking a leak at the urinal is atrocious to me. Secondly, it is so damn dangerous that it just drives me NUTS how they could let this happen!!!! Any woman can be raped and no one would even notice!!! Miami-Dade Transit needs to take action and segregate the restrooms once again because this is an active danger to women!!!

The good news: it's free!! That is awesome!…read moreHowever when we went, it was a rainy cold day and the metro over was experiencing delays: so when it's late: you just gotta wait... the whole system delays. Oh well. Then when it arrives it was a squashed sardines situation, but we only used it to go from the frost center to the Omni Center so, we squashed on! lol Under normal circumstances, the cars are well kept, clean and move the people around and it's like a Disney ride!

The unreliability makes it completely useless if you actually need to get to work or an appointment on time.Always Late: The promised "every few minutes" schedule is a joke. Expect to wait 10+ minutes on a packed platform just for a single car to roll by.Useless Tech: The digital arrival screens are completely inaccurate.

Better known as the Mile Marker 35 rest stop (sometimes referred to as the Broward County rest stop…read moreor Alligator Alley rest stop), this public rest stop is arguably one of the most unique rest stops you will find in the entire country! Located on the east bound side of I-75 (headed towards Miami), the rest stop can be accessed from both directions from I-75. Whether you are driving through, pass, or stopping in, this overall area is special in that you find yourself in the Florida Everglades. You will be able to see the intricate tributaries that stretch across the glades/swamp land as you're driving into the rest stop. Fishermen can be spotted fishing along the on/off ramps of the rest stop reflecting the coveted local fishery. While you won't find convenient stores or restaurants at this rest stop, it makes up for in the educational displays and 40-foot tower and multi-level boardwalk complex that stretches across a quarter mile. This site serves as an arboretum and outdoor wetland exhibit through which the boardwalk offers improved walking trails through. As you walk through the area, you will be able to observe and spot the native flora and fauna. It's definitely a great way to stretch your legs, while the multi-level boardwalk is ADA/wheelchair/stroller friendly and accessible. You can also bring your leashed pets through this area. Of course there are restrooms and light vending machines available, but that is not the key feature to this rest stop. Don't miss the chance to check out this unique rest stop and get a peak into the natural beauty of the glades! Highly recommend making this once-in-a-lifetime stop if you're travelling along this route.

An efficient enough site where two rail lines cross and can easily be used by both - and resultingly, densifying neighborhood that surrounds it. The staff is usually always very helpful and kind. The main criticism is that the trains don't come frequently enough! As to the actual station, as usual for a Tri-Rail station there's not enough benches... or trash cans. The Metro-side's construction often takes too long and I'm seriously concerned about the accessibility as a result. In addition, there's also so much anxiety if the train is coming and the trains don't run late enough. But it's such a net positive to have rail options (with signage and audio message in three (3!) languages) in this urban-surburban-car-dominated-megaopolis - and I support it fully and want MORE investment in stations like this to make it better - and have two lines cross like this is superb.
