Nancy once again went above and beyond ensuring that the deal I booked on line was the best deal…read more She also untangled the mess I had made of my reservation. She did so with my just sending her an email, as I had to go to work. She stayed online with rep and fixed everything and saved me money to boot. I have had Nancy's assistance for over ten years and I wouldn't think of using anyone else. She is the best.

Traveling with TourTime has been a delightful experience. I have gone on two day trips (Winter…read morePark and NASA), and two overnight trips (Helen Georgia and Callaway Gardens) with Jim U and the TourTime group. Jim's planning and scheduling were perfect. All I had to do was get on the bus which was loaded with snacks, ice and drinks (water, sodas, sangria, Margaritas, and wine) and relax until we reached our destination. Wherever Jim took us, whether it was restaurants, boat docks (Winter Park), hotels, or theme parks, the staff was waiting for us when we arrived. Our bags were taken to our rooms, and what great rooms they have been! Our most recent trip was to Callaway Gardens. Our beautiful rooms had balconies overlooking the hills of Pine Mountain where the leaves were changing colors. Can't wait for the next trip.

I started flying here last year to earn my private pilot license. A few months ago, I was on a solo…read moreflight and had a hard landing that resulted in damage to the plane. It affected my confidence as a pilot and also I had a lot of (unnecessary) financial stress caused by the school and the owner Seth. If you are a new pilot seeking guidance and support, this is not the school to go to! In terms of their actual flight training, I can look back and realize that their instruction was very lackluster. Safety was not a top priority, rather it felt like everyone at the school was there to socialize. Now that I have experience at a new school, I can reflect on policies/procedures that were not implemented at JBA. One of the biggest things being that I didn't have an official personal weather minimums on paper. Frankly, I was a new pilot and didn't know how important this is for solo flights, but JBA instructors failed to teach me this. In fact, the morning before the flight where I had my hard landing, I had texted my instructor expressing concern about the weather/winds and was told I "would be fine". I was also taught to "salvage" my landings when I bounced, and there wasn't a strong emphasis on go arounds. This nonchalant attitude was pretty standard at JBA, which is dangerous when operating an aircraft (especially a student). Additionally, the financial turmoil that JBA and specifically the owner of the school, Seth, caused me was one of the worst parts of this experience. I had the insurance that the school REQUIRED me to have, so I thought that everything would be okay with the school when I had to use said insurance. I was very wrong because Seth came after me personally and sent me a bill for $81,000. He kept calling/texting my personal number even though I made it clear that I wanted everything to be handled with the agent assigned to my case through email. He also kept approaching me at the gym where I regularly go to (and he occasionally goes to) and tried to talk to me about personal matters in a very public setting. Seth's unethical handling of the aircraft damage claim and questionable billing was very disappointing. My conclusion for JBA is that its flight program is severely inadequate and does not promote safety. My experience is proof of that, and Seth's conduct and attitude further confirm my exceedingly low opinion of his operation.

The lady who volunteered there told us story of the first school house for colored people. How the nuns were assigned from France, etc. I enjoyed talking with the local guide and the staff are very informative.

I recall the first I visited this museum was in 2017. I had no idea that this museum ever existed…read more This place was recommended to me by my neighbor. My first was awesome and I did get the opportunity to learn a lot about Duval County history. I also love the random painted frogs that are randomly placed outside the adjacent park. Ironically, these are compliments of a local artists who painted them and took the time to randomly place them. They also have a gift shop where a few painted frogs are available for purchase. I managed to purchase one after my visit. If you love learning about history within Duval Cointy, then I highly suggest this type of museum.
