Wonderful experience to see lights and also learn about St Augustine. Guide was fantastic. Perfect for small family or group.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you for the lovely review. We are so glad you enjoyed seeing the lights while learning more about St Augustine. It is great to hear your guide made it a fantastic experience and that it was a perfect fit for your family or group. We truly appreciate you joining us.

Exceptional tour of so many sights! Driver was very informative and kind! We learned a lot from him about beautiful St Augustine ❤️
Response from Host, Nov 2025
We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and that your driver made the experience both informative and enjoyable. It means the world to us when guests leave feeling connected to the beauty and history of St. Augustine.

It was a nice time with the family. It is much better than the trolley. Make sure to give yourself plenty of time to find parking.

Three generations (parents, kids and grandkids) and we all enjoyed the tour provided. Listening and singing to Christmas carols all while viewing the lights. Last year we walked it, this year we choose to ride it and saw many more lights and decorations. St Augustine and whole town does up Christmas well. Great and courteous driver. Only negative was to the city - there is not enough parking. Especially when they close the only parking garage in town. Get there early as there is not enough parking. We would recommend it, and do it again!

This was a PERFECT way to see the lights of St Augustine.. we saw all the main lights (that are awesome!) but also on some fabulous decorations/lights on side streets that we would otherwise not have seen.. we had fun with the 3D glasses that made the lights look like Gingerbread Men- especially fun when looking at the bridge-Loved the Christmas music and we had a cooler night so definitely got some of that holiday spirit. Our driver could not have been more accommodating and friendly-- so I would not only highly recommend this specific tour, but I wouldn't see the lights in St Augustine any other way!

Wonderful 👍👌😍
Ride on time, comfy, enjoying full time
Beautiful city with lots lights ✨️
Thanks for this easy ride
Vanessa_S, Nov 2023
I’m not really sure what we paid for. We sat in traffic, not many lights…not the drivers fault he was very nice. It was a 35 min ride…
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Thank you for the review. Our company does not put up the light installations we only tour throughout the decorated areas with holiday music , 3-d glasses, and light history discussed. Considering the traffic on a Friday the day after Thanksgiving I can guarantee your tour was at least 45 minutes long. Most of the towns streets are the same layouts from the early 1600s, small one way roads that gives our town charm. The traffic slows the pace allowing guests to relax, take pictures, enjoy the decorated buildings and light historic commentary. Other companies are out touring with cheer and it adds to the overall experience. We provided everything we advertised.

I love riding through the city and seeing all the light, talking about the history of St. Augustine.

Great way to see nights of lights. Saw beautiful B+B decorations off the beaten path.

Michael was our tour guide and did an incredible job! We went during Nights of Lights. Since street traffic wasn't heavy on the night we went, Michael took us to different parts of St. Augustine just outside of the historic district. Christmas music played during the entirety of our trip and Michael gave us some history background throughout our tour. We got to see parts of St. Augustine that we didn't even know existed. The perk of doing this tour vs. the trolley is you get to go through the smaller streets that a trolley couldn't fit through. We would do this tour again in a heartbeat! Michael was the absolute best and made our trip memorable!
James_T, Dec 2022
The drive throughout the city was beautiful. We saw many private houses with beautiful lights. The only issue I had was that there was not enough narrative by the driver. I thought we would get an overview of the buildings and a history of them. But the music that was played was wonderful!
Sherri_C, Dec 2022
Our tour guide was so informative and friendly. He gave us some great reviews of the city. And then unknown to all of us my daughters boyfriend asked her to marry him underneath the Love Tree. We were all so excited and Michael, the tour guide shared in our happiness. I would highly recommend Michael and the tour. Much better than the trolley. Easy to load and unload.
Sheron_G, Dec 2022
The driver was knowledgeable and fun
The lights we saw was ok.
We were under the impression the whole city and neighborhoods would be lighted but that was not the case
Kelly_S, Dec 2022
Our driver was AWESOME-we will be booking again next year! It was fabulous to be able to see the lights with just my family
heather_g, Dec 2022
It’s nice to go down the smaller streets. The Christmas music the driver played was nice! A great time!

Casper_P, Dec 2022
It was fine, but nothing special. Drivers was nice, and good to have a private cart, but having done the general trolley ride before, I won't say there is anything that differentiates this.
Response from Host, Dec 2022
Thank you for touring with us, and leaving a review. Both companies tour the Nights Of Lights. Our tours are much smaller, and personably verses the trolleys. We are able to drive down smaller roads which allows us to quietly pass by the Bed & Breakfasts and Homes that decorate, unlike the trolleys who only drive down the same route every night. You can book our tours privately without having to share a cart with other guests. There is no waiting in a long line to board, unlike the trolleys. Since we are a smaller tour our guides are able to engage with everyone on the cart.
Kristin_H, Dec 2022
Was a fun experience and a great tour guide. Was a unique way to see the lights and the historic area. Guide was very knowledgeable and polite. However, was WAY overpriced.
Response from Host, Dec 2022
Thank you for leaving a review. We are glad that our service was unique, and the guide was great!
You reserved a private tour (the entire vehicle) which comes out to $25 per seat which is some of the lowest prices in the city. If you did want to spend as much for the entire vehicle we offer per row bookings that are cheaper than reserving the entire vehicle privately.
Rebecca_S, Dec 2022
The pickup location was easy to get to. We were the last group of the evening so he took us back to our rental which was heaven for 3 out of the 5 people in our group with mobility issues. The lights were beautiful and he was able to get into smaller spaces because of the size of the vehicle. Would definitely recommend it! Our driver also brought back my husband's hat which he left in the cart. We were all sleeping when he brought it back but we are very grateful. Thank you!
Response from Host, Dec 2022
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are glad you enjoyed the tour. Yes, being the last tour of the evening had a silver lining! The hat had an extended tour and we are glad we were able to get it back.

Visited St Augustine and booked the private golf cart / Trolly. Had a great time. Great way to see the beautiful holiday light. No lines or waiting. Driver did a great job. Thank you
Cynthia_H, Dec 2022
We had a great time on our Nights of Lights tour! The golf cart was clean and comfortable. The tour guide was funny and played Christmas music and gave us 3D glasses. Way better than the trolley tours!!! I would definitely recommend.
Linda_F, Jan 2022
It was so cold, but our wonderful driver, Aaron, made it work for us. He knew all the good places to see lights and could get down streets the big trolleys cannot. We had a great time!

We all had a fabulous time! Our tour guide was the best. The lights were gorgeous. We enjoyed the private tour immensely!
clorinda_H, Dec 2021
A bit disappointing. No real narrative and most streets had no lights except for the middle of the square. Maybe the regular trolley is better. Would not recommend sorry
Response from Host, Dec 2021
Thank you for leaving a review. Since we are a smaller vehicle we are able to pass by more decorated buildings/areas verses the larger trains/trolleys. They are set on route that only passes the main areas since they are so large and cannot access all of the areas. Where as we are able to pass by all of the main areas plus the side streets that showcase Bed & Breakfasts, small businesses, and residential homes who decorate.
Courtney_H, Dec 2021
Randy was the besttt! He made the entire ride fun! You see so much more on this tour than the public one. This is the way to go! No lines, picked us up earlier and gave us a whole hour! Will be doing this every year!
