Highlights

We got some creepy photos! - This was such a cool experience for my kids ages 9 and 11. They’re super inquisitive and our tour leader was nothing but patient. The walking tour at that time of night just leaves you with such an intimate experience of St. Augustine, learning some of the history and stories leaves you with a completely different perspective of the rich history this city has to offer, completely aside from the days filled shuffling around tourists. The whole staff was super accommodating and friendly. It was great family experience.

Fun ghost tour - Our tour guide was Sylvia. She was awesome! The tour was very informative and just the right amount of spookiness, especially when it got darker. My daughter and I had a great time!

Fun adventure for everyone in the family. - We had a wonderful time and it was a whole lot of fun. Wished it was actually longer and we went to more places but the experience was amazing. We actually caught so far two things that I've gone through with the hundreds of pictures I've taken. Our tour guide was amazing and the shopkeeper even kept the shop open late so that we could buy things afterwards since we couldn't find parking and we had to run to make it on time.

Rising Star - Sylvia is great! She's got the perfect personality for this kind of role. She was just as personable to us old folks as she was to our 16 year olds. She's just getting started! I am looking forward to coming back next year to see what she adds to her tours. This tour guide will be having them lining up to take her tours soon.
