The best guided tour we have been on

Bob_F, Nov 2026
This was the best guided trip we have been on. The guide i particular was incredible. Wish I could remember her name. Also, initially I thought I booked a walking tour, and disapointed to learn it was a golf cart tour. Turns out this was way better. Covered much more area than we could have walking.

We love that our golf cart tour ended up being even better than what you originally had planned! It’s a great way to cover more of historic St. Augustine without all the walking, while still enjoying a personal experience with your guide.

April_T, Oct 2026
If you get Karen as a guide you're in for a treat; she's very knowledgeable about the history of St. Augustine and if asked a question that she didn't know the answer to she'd say she didn't know and just didn't make up an answer. I really liked that.

We went on this tour with Karen as our tour guide. If you want to have an extremely entertaining, interesting and fact-filled tour, she’s your gal. We learned more about Saint Augustine and its very interesting history from her than we probably would have reading numerous books. You could see she was passionate about the subject and passed that on to all of us. Great tour.

Fantastic Historic Tour

Donna_D, Jul 2026
This was an amazing experience the person that gave us the tour (Karen) was so incredibly knowledgeable and spent so much time just explaining to us the various different things about Saint Augustine, and then connecting the historic to the present for us. It was genuinely one of the best tours I’ve had and she deserves a lot of credit for her ability to do these tours and her historic knowledge.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for such a thoughtful review. Karen has a real talent for connecting St. Augustine’s past with the city you see today. Karen reads the reviews too, and we know she’ll enjoy seeing your kind words and hearing that this was one of the best tours you’ve taken!

Melissa_W, Jul 2026
Mark was a great guide. He showed us so many interesting things that we had no idea about gave us great restaurant recommendations loved that it was just us on the tour so we could ask questions and learned all kinds of things. Would highly recommend.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for the review! The small group experience makes it easy to ask questions, discover some of St. Augustine’s lesser known spots, and even pick up a few local restaurant recommendations. We’re happy you had such a great time with Marc!
