Highly recommend over trolly! - Tour was better than we expected! So glad we decided to do the walking tour instead of the trolly. We would see the trolly pass quickly by our stops while we were learned about the history behind the stops. 90 minutes went quickly by.

Do not miss this tour! - Russ was a fantastic tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about his city. We cannot recommend this history tour enough. To begin with, he was over-the-top accommodating. After we were stuck in traffic and running late for our scheduled time, he graciously offered to meet us at our hotel, as parking was a little tricky in the area where our tour began. His wealth of knowledge was awe-inspiring, and he even shared photos of significant historical events along the way. He guided us through popular areas, highlighting the very rich history of the city, but also shared hidden gems that we would never have discovered without his assistance. As first-time visitors of St. Augustine, we could not have asked for a better way to start our stay.

Informative tour - Our guide, Luc, is a historian by profession: as he guided us through St. Augustine's historic center, he shared interesting information about important events and personalities that shaped it over the centuries. We enjoyed the tour and recommend it to anyone planning to visit the country's oldest city.

Great Tour with Knowledgeable Guide - A mild February afternoon created the perfect setting for our 1.5-hour overview of Historic St. Augustine. Local expert Amy set a reasonable pace of walking and talking our way through this delightful area. We had the opportunity to view many building exteriors and a few interiors that helped establish the context of St. Augustine's yesterdays, today, and tomorrows. Overall, this tour served as a great overview - we intend to visit again to savor the treasures that await.
