Fur guides, Fawn and Steve, were wonderful; both knowledgeable and personable. The stop at the Old Jail was an excellent mix of information, shocks and theater!

The tour guide makes or breaks this experience. The guide we had wasn’t good. She spoke too fast and had no engagement with the group. She didn’t say anything interesting or memorable. She rambled through a few stories with no details. Actor at the old jail was great. But the other stops were just a waste of time. There are a lot of ghost tours in St. Augustine. I’m a local and will never recommend this one.

It was very good the Narrator was well spoken and understood. The stops were very informative. Didn’t see no ghost this time, maybe next.
Megan_T, Feb 2024
Read reviews and chose this tour a. Riding tour b. Seemed like full of history. While there was history included, the entire tour was full of actors and theatrical portrayals of the stories. Not what we were looking for at all. Very disappointing.
