5.00This is a great walking tour of St Augustine. Our tour guide, Kevin, took us to amazing sites while explaining the history of St Augustine and of the specific sites. He encouraged us to do more exploring and learning on our own after the tour. He also provided good resources to do this. Kevin kept the tour fun and moving along. The tour length was closer to two hours but Kevin explained this at the start and let us know to leave as needed. No one did. :)
Tour went over the 90...

5.00Tour went over the 90 minute allowed time. It was well worth it. Just didn’t want to have plans or activities planned. Kevin was very knowledgeable and made the tour extremely interesting. I would highly recommend this tour.

5.00Kevin was an excellent guide, very informative and interesting. At the start of the tour he said it was scheduled for 90 minutes but he always goes longer and welcomed us to exit the tour at any time. Our tour took 2 hours and we enjoyed the extra time. He took us to locations that made the narration come alive and answered all our questions. Unfortunately we had someone join the tour while it was underway who seemed to be slightly inebriated and repeatedly interrupted and spoke over Kevin who handled it very well.
, Great tour by an exceptional guide
