St. Augustine Boat and Walking tour
Our guides, Luis and Inez, were excellent, very personable and informative. We would enthusiastically recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Hi Robert, glad to see you enjoyed the tour. Rgds Luis

The boat ride was great! ...
The boat ride was great! Bob did a great job telling us about St. Augustine from the water. Chip was great for the land tour. Advertised as walking, but was a trolley tour?
Response from the operator: Hi Joan, Bob and Chip are excellent guides. Both are very passionate about St Augustine. Sometimes if we have the cart available and in case of rain we offer our guests to do a cart tour instead of walking. It’s always up to the guests. The golf cart tour is more complete.

1 if by land, 2 if by sea
The boat portion was scenic but very little narration. The pilot/captain gave the bare minimum. Our walking tour guide, Chip, on the other hand was very knowledgable & took us into several hotels, museums and Flagler College. We felt that we had a good handle on the various eras this city has gone through.
Response from the operator: Hi, I’ll pass your review to the boat operator. Glad to see you enjoyed the rest of the tour. Rgds, Luis

Boat relaxing but no info, walking tour much better
Relaxing boat ride. Some info given, Not as much as I would’ve liked. The boat ride would’ve been the perfect opportunity to talk about the history of Augustine. The walking tour was very good and did give a lot of information. Our guide was very knowledgeable.

Not good
By doing the tour! 30 minutes before departure the tour guide texted me to say tour cancelled! Disappointment resulted as from hotel to 170 St George is a 15 minute walk in the heat
Response from the operator: Hi, our apologies for the miscommunication. Unfortunately we had a medical emergency with COVID that forced us to cancel most tours this past week. When tours are cancelled in our system or any provider system such as viator or Airbnb a cancelation email is sent immediately to all participants. As long as your email address was correct you should have received this message informing of the cancellation. Normally we would follow up with a txt or call but this time we were caught off guards with one of our family members in the ER and two others diagnosed with the virus. Stay healthy!

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
St Augustine Boat and Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for St Augustine.
How much does St Augustine Boat and Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $59 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 St Augustine Boat and Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 St Augustine Boat and Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 34 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 St Augustine Boat and 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 St Augustine Boat and Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book St Augustine Boat and Walking Tour?
+
Around 12 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does St Augustine Boat and 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.
