This is a power packed tour. Nancy, our guide and driver was extremely knowledgeable. She gave historical facts and information that was very enjoyable. Nothing boring, lots of humor and interaction. St Augustine has so much to offer and Nancy was kind enough to share everything she could. This tour is a definite must do!

Easily one of the best tours that we have been on. Mike was so informative, and we both learned so much about the history of St Augustine. Even my husband, who was skeptical at first, said how great it was. Book this tour!

An Absolute Must in St. Augustine

Heather_B, May 2026
We normally are not tour people, but due to the sheer volume of sights to see in St. Augustine, we were looking for an overview on our first day in town. Going in, we thought we knew everything we wanted to see on our trip, but ended up discovering even more places to explore! We were totally blown away by how much history we learned from Karen. Not only was her delivery hilarious, she explained everything in easy to understand terms and was able to answer all of our questions. Pretty sure she conjured a peacock to cross the road at exactly the right time for photos and had a canon shoot off in the background as a comical highlight to what she was saying at one point. My 86 year old father, who is considered a huge history buff, said he learned more from Karen in an hour than had in years. She personalized things, interacted with everyone in our group and even dropped us at a restaurant afterwards so we didn't have to walk! If you are looking for the best tour of St. Augustine's amazing history, look no further and book this one now! 11/10 Recommend

Response from Host, May 2026

Wow, thank you for such a thoughtful review. Starting with a tour really is the perfect first way to see St. Augustine and get your bearings for the rest of your trip. We love hearing that even a history buff learned something new. Sounds like Karen, the peacock, and the cannon timing all worked together for a memorable day. We appreciate the recommendation more than you know.
