My BF and o did this tour while vacationing in St. Augustine. This tour was soooo much fun. Kendall was our guide. She is phenomenal!!! She is very animated and her stories were great! As we drove through the streets she gave us a lot information about the city, its founders and rich history. All narrated in combination with the dozens of ghost stories. Very fascinating!!! Highly recommended experience!
