Description

The tour begins in the Plaza de la Constitución, where you'll hop on board a golf cart ready to take you on a historical journey through the city of St. Augustine. For an hour and 15 minutes, you'll be transported through the Olde-style streets, discovering important sites within this settlement, including the Plaza de la Constitución, the Puerto de Matanzas, and the Puente de los Leónes. The most noteworthy site is the Castillo de San Marcos, a national park built to defend Florida and the Atlantic trade route.

Further north, a mile from the Castillo, is the Misión Nombre de Dios, built in 1565. Continuing one more mile is the archaeological park of the Fountain of Youth, believed to be the landing site of explorer Ponce de Leon. St. Augustine is rich with legends and myths about its past.
