We had a fantastic time on the family-friendly ghost tour with St. Augustine Land and Sea Tours! Our guide, Garry, was outstanding. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and did a great job bringing the history and stories of St. Augustine to life. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and his enthusiasm made the tour even more enjoyable.My teenager and I enjoyed it so much that we'd love to come back and take one of the more in-depth ghost tours. Although the family-friendly tour was still a little spooky for my 8-year-old at times, it was never over the top, and we all had a great time together.If you're looking for a fun way to experience the history and mystery of St. Augustine, we highly recommend this tour. Thanks, Garry, for a memorable evening—we'll definitely be back!

Our tour guide was knowledgeable, considerate, skilled, and enthusiastic. But, as a conservative, which I admit up front, I grew frustrated with the emphasis on the civil rights struggle and the old jail. After giving a nice background and timeline of the founding of the city by the Spanish, our guide soon began talking about the civil rights protests of 1964 and the fact that MLK Jr. called St. Augustine “lawless” for its civil rights abuses. He then talked about how Flagler built a beautiful hotel but then focused on how he moved the city jail because prisoners would taunt the hotel guests and that treatment of the inmates was horrific. I get it. I understand we have our national sins and mistakes, but I just feel our guide focused too much on it and gave the young children on the tour the impression that our country consists almost entirely of regretfully bad behavior, racism, and selfish extravagance. This is the standard liberal narrative and is so ubiquitous it’s hard to even notice anymore, but I’m sick of it. I know our history and am proud we’ve overcomeour racial differences and sins, but if we can’t put it in the context of our successes and the good things that made our country great, we risk damning our society to a constant state of grievance and regret, which helps zero people in the current moment. Let’s be sure to provide both sides of the historical picture, or all sides, and not just focus on our misdeeds.

Our guide, Robert, was extremely knowledgeable as he transported us around St. Augustine and shared the history. We learned more about the history than on other tours that we have taken.The boat tour on the bay was nice except for the loud bullhorn speaker that was painful to hear when the boat guide talked. We asked him to turn it down and he said OK, but never did. Everyone in our section had to cover their ears when he talked.

The stories of the ghost and how they came about was very entertaining! Gary was great at holding your attention. The electric cart was a small group so more personal communication over a big bus!

It was lovely to take the tour on a golf cart through neighborhoods we likely wouldn't have seen otherwise. Garry, the tour guide, was very friendly and knowledgeable about everything St. Augustine. This was not a "cheesy" or scary tour, but rather a more simple 'telling-about-the-lore' tour. Lasted just over an hour. 👍 (Photos are of two of the cemeteries we saw)...
