The whole process was flawless, and very reasonable for pricing. Everyone we interacted with was on-time, incredibly professional and so kind! They really went above and beyond to make sure all communication was flawless to ensure our very scheduled day flowed without disruption. Our guests loved this option for our wedding day transportation, and will be using them again for any event! The driver was also amazing, and made our trip as great as it was. We had a great Tuk'n time! :)

    We have been so excited to try Go Tuk'n, and the opportunity finally presented itself!…read more We booked an afternoon tour of the architecture and memorials of downtown Jacksonville. While we are familiar with the city, it was really interesting to have the context of history to frame our knowledge. We arrived 15 minutes before our tour, and our guide Toni was waiting for us. The tuktuk was ready with a cooler filled with champagne, sangria and water (that we ordered as add-ons to our tour). She gave us a set of headphones and a speaker we could wear around our necks, so we could hear her narration clearly over the traffic. Our two hour tour was chock full of sights and sites! Toni was fun, knowledgeable and engaging. We had plenty of opportunities to comments, ask questions, and even get out of the vehicle to take photos or admire certain locations. We cannot WAIT to take another tour (or three!) Highly recommend - this is a fun date for couples, families, or friends!

    It was a great day on the water with the Amelia River Cruises & Charters company at the helm…read more It was my first time visiting Amelia Island and Fernandina Beach and wanted to get an overlay of the area and the river cruise seemed like the perfect thing to get an overview of the area. And I wasn't wrong! The tour lasted about 90 minutes (and it leaves promptly FYI) and takes you along the shoreline of Amelia Island - past the shrimping boats and past a Civil War era fort - before heading towards Cumberland Island National Seashore. This is where the true fun of the tour was for me. I had no idea really the history of the island and found it fascinating how the Carnegies and Rockefellers and more of the country's elite used this random Georgia seashore as their private escape. The history of both Cumberland and Amelia Islands is incredibly fascinating and the guides for both the Florida and Georgia sides respectively were well informed and personable. Plus - you'll very likely see a ton of great wildlife throughout including dolphins and wild horses and pigs. It's a great way to spend an afternoon in the area and a fabulous introduction to Cumberland Island National Seashore/Park.

On the walk you learn some history about the areas visited and/or even something new. I have personally been on the tour few times and they are the same, but different. The tour used to start at The Landing, but since that has been torn down, the tours now start at Hemming Park. Both tours included a walk through the tunnels under the city, through historical buildings, a view of a silent movie filmed in Jacksonville, the Jackson monument, history talk and a tour of the secret bank vault. However, where the differences are is on one tour we visited the Florida Theater and the 42nd floor of the Bank of America building.......it had amazing killer views of the city! On the other tour we visited the library and to my surprise there is a lot of history in there that you wouldn't know if you didn't take the tour. We also toured Hemming Park and the general area (yes, there is history there). Depending on what is going on in the city and/or buildings, your tour may be different than when we went. The tours are informative and well worth it. Notes: There is not a designated area for parking, however, you can park at the library, use street parking or any other public parking area. There are restrooms located inside the Library and later at the tourist office as well.

The one worker that is stationed at the house, was friendly and very knowledgeable. I just wish that there were more furnishings in the home, but there is a plaque that actually addresses this. Be sure to bring your phone with you so that you can follow the audio tour (again, free!), and you might even get a chance to see some bald eagles in the front of the house. You will definitely need your camera! TIP - there isn't a ton of parking, so be sure to go earlier in the day.

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.

She wrote Uncle Toms Cabin which was an important anti-slavery book at the time. She would create the clay statues at the Old Post Office in front of people over months. The cost of the "old wax process" then, bronzing, would be thru donations and be around $175k! I never thought our little museum would be able to raise that money but they did and the pre-unveiling was tonight; tomorrow is the public unveiling. The 3 pieces are beautiful; a masterpiece for Duval County! Brenda worked 1,000's of hours creating the treasure.
