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 experience with Judi as our guide thru St. Augustine exploring new little restaurants and hearing interesting facts about the city! Enjoyed delicious bites paired with wine or beer! Loved it! We had the best time celebrating my friend’s birthday on this tour and thanks to Judi for making it special!

Heather_K

What a fantastic experience…even for someone who lives in this area! Our tour guide, Judi, made it memorable with her knowledge of the area. Wonderful food and wine visiting little backstreet places. Would do it again..but only with Judi!!

bethcJ1468RL

Scott was amazing and we had a wonderful time. Highly recommend. Only advice would be to do this at the beginning of your trip, not your last day like we did, then you have great information on where to go.

alane489

Our guide Jessica was awesome! We learned more about St Augustine than most everyone knows about. More history dealing with the Civil Rights movement….

Rebekah R

This was one of the best tour experiences I have went on. If you are on the verge or second guessing it, just book it! Me and my mom went and it was a tour of 9, by the end every one on the tour was laughing and having a good time, so I would also recommend this for a solo traveler. Scott was a great guide, he took us to so many places we wouldn't have seen otherwise and all the accomodations were taken care of so we didn't have to do a thing, we barley had to wait at the places.

LuAnn O

Jessica was WONDERFUL!!! She had such a passion for all the history she shared with us . Her knowledge of the history which shaped the kind of food we tasted was AMAZING . Really she made me look at food a whole new way. We started with Salmon and ended 3 hours later with a raspberry type of cake !! With lots of wine and fun and other food tastings between all of that. Super fun would do it again would recommend to everyone

Jessica was very informative. Tied St Augustine history to our culinary experience. Also pointed out places and shops of interest that were not on the tour but that we might enjoy at another time.

Dan C

We enjoyed each of the venues and the stories Jessica provided. She is so passionate about the history and city of St. Augustine, it made the tour our favorite of the week. We highly suggest you request Jessica as your guide!
