What you get

    About this experience

    Maybe you've taken one of the many tours offered in the wonderful city of St. Augustine previously. Would you like to hear about things you have NOT heard before? Learn something new for a change? Little secrets not usually talked about? Perhaps you will know some of them but pretty certain not all of them. This is not your typical "history" tour. You will hear about, and be shown, things on a variety of topics from history, crime, our many dead, buildings, plans, myths and truths. Group size limited to 12 for a more personal, intimate experience. This will take you little over a mile of walking, in the historic downtown area, and last about an hour. Tour takes place rain or shine.

    Great History

    Laura gave us the history as we walk through the old city. Very knowledgeable. Not as much walking as I expected.

    Response from the operator: I hope that's a good thing with not as much walking as you expected. LOL :D Your kind review is much appreciated, Thank You!! Laura

    Secrets of St Augustine Tour with Wendy

    Fabulous and so much richer than a big group tour! Stories were woven throughout the history. We heard what was not on standard tours. So goi g on a big tour and this tour was not a repeat of information.

    Response from the operator: This is exactly why we keep tour sizes smaller and design them to be engaging and unique--to give guests the BEST possible experience. Thank you so very much for your feedback. It is invaluable, just like you, a cherished guest!

    Great history tour of St. Augustine

    The tour was great with local history and knowledge. The tour was delayed for the parade, which made the experience much more meaningful.

    Response from the operator: Thank you much for the great feedback. I’m so glad we got to still make it work for your group! It was a pleasure 😊 Laura

    Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for St Augustine.

    How much does Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $31 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 Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 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 Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 17 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 Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour?

    +

    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 Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 6 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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Secrets of Saint Augustine Historical Walking Tour 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.
