Flagler College

(Pass by)

On our foodie tours, we pass by Flagler College. Founded in 1968, the campus comprises 19 acres (77,000 m ), the centerpiece of which is the Ponce de León Hotel, built in 1888 as a luxury hotel. The architects were John Carrere and Thomas Hastings, working for Henry Morrison Flagler, the industrialist, oil magnate and railroad pioneer. It is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Castillo de San Marcos National Monument

(Pass by)

See this historic fortification built in the 17th century. The oldest masonry fort in the continental United States, the Castillo de San Marcos is a large Spanish stone fortress built to protect and defend Spain's claims in the New World. It's a National Monument and, at 325 years old, it's the oldest structure in St. Augustine.

Huguenot Cemetery

(Pass by)

The Huguenot Cemetery in St. Augustine, Florida located across from the historic City Gate was a Protestant burial ground between the years 1821 and 1884. Prior to American occupation the Spanish city of St. Augustine was predominately Catholic and the only burial ground within the city, the Tolomato cemetery, was reserved for Catholics. Recognizing a need for a formal Protestant burial ground an area just outside the city gate was chosen by the new American administration in St. Augustine. The first burials occurred in 1821 just prior to a yellow fever epidemic which claimed the lives of a large numbers of the city's inhabitants.

Plaza de la Constitucion

(Pass by)

Historic park in the center of downtown St. Augustine. The original city plan was built out from this location. It is bordered by The Government House, the Cathedral Basilica, and the Bridge of Lions and Matanzas Bay. Spain's 1573 Law of the Indies, Leyes de los Indies, specified that colonial town plans set aside such a plaza for government, church and public use. Along coasts, plazas were to begin at the waterfront - to see and to be seen.

Cathedral Basilica of St. Augustine

(Pass by)

The Cathedral Basilica of St. Augustine is a historic cathedral in St. Augustine, Florida, and the seat of the Catholic Bishop of St. Augustine. Constructed over five years (1793–1797), it was designated a U.S. National Historic Landmark on April 15, 1970. Its congregation, established in 1565, is the oldest Christian congregation in the contiguous United States.

Government House Museum

(Pass by)

Government House dominates the west end of the Town Plaza, a unique Spanish land use component lying within a National Historic Landmark District. Along coasts, plazas were to begin at the waterfront - to see and to be seen. Since 1598, a government building has stood on this site with a view of the harbor landing, accommodating administrative headquarters and residences of colonial governors appointed by the Crowns of Spain, then Britain, then Spain again. After Spain ceded Florida to the United States in 1821, this current Government House served as a courthouse and briefly as a Capitol of the new Territory of Florida.

What a wonderful way to enjoy an afternoon in St. Augustine! Our tour guide, Scott, was friendly, thoughtful and knowledgeable. He listened to our interests and tailored the tour accordingly, introducing us to some hidden gems. We appreciated the portion sizes - not just a bite at each place, but not a full meal either. It was nice to discover some unique places - my only regret is that we did it too late in our visit to have enough time to return to the restaurants for more.

We went on the Corks & Forks Tour as a friend group of 6 Floridians over memorial day weekend. Jodi was our guide. We had a blast and will definitely do it again. It's a fun way to meet new people, experience new restaurants and hear more intriguing history of the area. Thank you Jodi!!!

Judi was an exceptional host! Her knowledge of history and local cuisine was so interesting. She made us feel so comfortable and welcome. The food and wine were wonderful. We ended the evening with award winning desert from a local baker 😋 We highly recommend this tour!

Tammy_B

Scott is a very knowledgeable guide. He picked a nice variety of restaurants to try. I loved all the stops but I think the Greek restaurant was our favorite. Would definitely recommend this tour. You will come away with some knowledge of the history of STA and some recommendations of other things to try.

We had a great time on this walking tour. Scott was wonderful and took us to amazing little places we never would have found on our own. The food and wine were also very unique and more than enough.
