A Self-Guided Audio Tour of St Augustine's Twisted History

Despre activitate

On this self-guided audio tour, you will dig up the good, bad, and ugly stories buried under St. Augustine's historic streets.

St. Augustine is the oldest, continuously occupied city in the United States. On this walking tour, you’ll follow the journey of founding father Pedro Menendez de Aviles, and the many others who gave everything they had to settle this hostile land.

From the original city gates to Plaza de la Constitución in historic downtown St Augustine, I’ll show you the scars around every corner. Along the way, you’ll hear good, bad, and ugly tales about what it took to build a perfect fort, and how it was attacked many times but never taken.

St. Augustine’s history is long, and its twisted tales are endless. This is a storytelling adventure into the lives and times of those who built this city.

Whether you’re visiting St Augustine for the first time or are a curious local, this tour will give you a greater appreciation for the city and its rich cultural heritage.
