Highlights

Maybe you've taken one of the many tours offered in the wonderful city of St. Augustine previously. Would you like to hear about things you have NOT heard before? Learn something new for a change? Little secrets not usually talked about? Perhaps you will know some of them but pretty certain not all of them. This is not your typical "history" tour. You will hear about, and be shown, things on a variety of topics from history, crime, our many dead, buildings, plans, myths and truths. Group size limited to 12 for a more personal, intimate experience. This will take you little over a mile of walking, in the historic downtown area, and last about an hour. Tour takes place rain or shine.

About St Augustine

St Augustine is a Florida town on the Atlantic coast, founded by the Spanish in 1565, with a coquina fort, narrow streets and Victorian-era hotels.

St Augustine was founded by the Spanish in 1565 and is the oldest continuously occupied European-founded settlement in the continental United States. The Castillo de San Marcos, a fort of pale coquina shell stone built by the Spanish between 1672 and 1695, guards the waterfront. The Spanish Quarter, pedestrian St George Street and the cathedral basilica sit within a few blocks, and the Bridge of Lions crosses to Anastasia Island.

Top-ranked sights in St Augustine: Castillo de San Marcos National Monument, Mission Nombre de Dios, Fountain of Youth.
