Government House Museum
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.

Anniversary Fun
Nina was a great tour guide! We learned a little bit of history and tried some wine and some cocktails from a distillery! My favorite dish was from the Odd Bird. So good. It was a Venezuelan dish! We rode on the golf cart through the city it was fun!! We had a good time.
Response from the operator: Thank you for spending your anniversary with us! 🎉 We’re so glad Nina made the tour fun and that you enjoyed the history, wine, and cocktails. And we have to agree, Odd Birds is a great stop! We’re happy you found a new favorite with the Venezuelan dish. The electric vehicle is a fun way to see a little more of the city, too. We hope you both had a wonderful anniversary and get to visit us again next time you’re in St. Augustine! 😊

Fabulous Girls Day with Judi (with an I) in Saint Augustine!!!
Judi (with an I) was our guide in Saint Augustine this week for a Corks & Forks tour. The tour was fabulous, but Judi was truly what made our adventure special.... her knowledge, personality and experience along with the great venues she arranged for us and the special stops along the way made our day one that we'll remember for years to come. I've lived near Saint Augustine for ten years and was unaware of some of the interesting, fun spots that she found for us. Thanks again Judi! We'll definitely recommend you to all of our friends and neighbors!
Response from the operator: Wow, thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re so glad you and the girls had such a great day with Judi. Hearing that she showed you spots you hadn’t discovered even after living near St. Augustine for 10 years is quite the compliment! 🎉 Judi’s knowledge of the city and all those little places that are easy to miss is such a big part of what makes these tours special. We’re thrilled the day gave you some new memories to take home, and we really appreciate you recommending us to your friends and neighbors. We hope to see you all again!

Fantastic food and drink experience.
Wonderful experience learning a bit of St. Augustine history while sampling different foods from local restaurants. Come hungry as the tour fills you up! Rene was a fantastic guide and took us to taste wine and food at some places we wouldn’t have otherwise found. We enjoyed the entire experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for joining us! We’re glad you enjoyed getting a little St. Augustine history along with the WONDERFUL food and wine. And yes, Rene definitely knows how to make sure no one leaves hungry! He truly is fantastic! We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. We hope to see you again real soon!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolute Perfection! Delicious Bites, Incredible Wine, and a First-Class Guide!
Our recent walking food and wine tour in St. Augustine was easily the highlight of our trip! If you are looking to skip the generic tourist traps and truly taste the vibrant, culinary heart of the historic district, this tour is an absolute must-do. From start to finish, the entire experience was flawlessly paced. We strolled through beautiful, brick-lined downtown alleys, stopping at a curated mix of handpicked local venues. Every single stop felt special. Instead of tiny samples, we were treated to incredibly generous, chef-driven pairings—everything from savory, authentic regional appetizers to exquisite desserts, each perfectly matched with fantastic wines. It easily replaced a full meal (and then some!), making it well worth every penny. What truly elevated this experience from a great food tour to an unforgettable one, however, was our phenomenal guide, Kirsten. Her passion for St. Augustine’s rich history and modern culinary scene was utterly infectious. She was highly knowledgeable, engaging, and had a brilliant sense of humor. Between stops, she shared fascinating historical narratives about how different global cultures shaped the flavors of the nation's oldest city, seamlessly weaving storytelling with our walking route. The partnerships they have with local chefs and shop owners mean you get VIP treatment the moment you walk through the door. We left not only completely full and happy, but with a deeper appreciation for the city and a list of new local gems to revisit. Do yourself a favor and book this tour—and ask for Kirsten our exceptional guide!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review, Lynn! We’re so happy to hear the Corks & Forks tour was a highlight of your trip. We loved hearing that you enjoyed the generous pairings, the wine, the little spots tucked into the historic district, and the stories behind St. Augustine’s food and history. We’re always happy to hear that someone left the tour very well fed! Kirsten will be especially happy to read this! She loves sharing the history of St. Augustine and all the little connections between the city’s past and its food. We also really appreciate you mentioning our local restaurant and shop partners. They’re such an important part of what we do, and we’re lucky to work with some pretty wonderful people! Thank you again for the incredibly kind recommendation, and we hope you join us again real soon. 😊

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for St Augustine.
How much does Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling) cost?
+
Prices start at $135 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in St Augustine usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling) take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in St Augustine is not rushed.
Is Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 796 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in St Augustine, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling)?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling)?
+
Around 279 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in St Augustine can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in St Augustine and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Corks & Forks Pairing Tour (St. Augustine, Strolling) start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central St Augustine within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in St Augustine?
+
St Augustine is walkable history: Castillo de San Marcos, Spanish quarter walking tours, trolley loops, lighthouse climbs and some of the best-attended ghost tours in the country. Guide storytelling quality is the main variable. On Outty we rank every St Augustine experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Medieval Torture Museum with Ghost Hunting and Tiny Art Gallery, St. Augustine's Wine, Cocktail and Food Experience, Dolphin and Wildlife Adventure of St. Augustine. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit St Augustine?
+
February to May and September to November. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in St Augustine?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
