Sightseeing tours in St. Augustine, Florida with local guides
Explore the Best of St. Augustine, Florida with our Guided Tours
Hey there, history buffs and sunshine seekers! Are you ready to step back in time and soak up some Florida rays? Well, buckle up, because Foxiepass is about to take you on a whirlwind tour of St. Augustine – America's oldest city and quite possibly the coolest spot you haven't explored yet.
A Walk Through Time
First things first, let's talk about the Castillo de San Marcos. This isn't just any old fort – it's a 17th-century marvel that's seen more action than a Hollywood blockbuster. Our guides will regale you with tales of sieges, prisoners, and the occasional pirate (because what's a coastal fort without a few swashbucklers?). Pro tip: Bring your camera, because the views of the Matanzas Bay from the gun deck are absolutely Instagram-worthy.
Next up on our history hit list is the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park. Now, I can't promise you'll leave looking like a teenager, but I can guarantee you'll have a blast. Drink from Ponce de Leon's legendary spring, watch a cannon demonstration that'll make your ears ring, and maybe even spot a peacock or two strutting their stuff.
From Gilded Age Glamour to Ghostly Encounters
Feeling fancy? Let's take a stroll down to Flagler College. This former luxury hotel is now a liberal arts college, but don't let that fool you – it's still dripping with Gilded Age opulence. Those Tiffany stained-glass windows? Yeah, they're the real deal. Our guides know all the juicy gossip about the hotel's famous guests, so get ready for some serious name-dropping.
As the sun sets, it's time to get spooky. St. Augustine is known as one of America's most haunted cities, and we're not about to let you miss out on the fun. Our ghost tours will take you through dimly lit streets and into some of the city's most notoriously haunted locations. Keep your eyes peeled – you never know when a spectral resident might decide to make an appearance!
Sun, Sand, and... Alligators?
But hey, we know you didn't come to Florida just for the history (though it's pretty awesome, right?). That's why we've got you covered with some natural wonders too. How about a trip to Anastasia State Park? With pristine beaches, nature trails, and enough wildlife to fill a nature documentary, it's the perfect place to unwind after all that sightseeing.
And for those of you with a wild side, we've got just the ticket – the St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park. Trust me, nothing gets your heart racing quite like seeing these prehistoric predators up close. Plus, the bird rookery here is a birdwatcher's paradise. Just don't get too close to the crocs, okay?
