Did another Tasting Tours food tour this past weekend! Our guide-Scott-was SO much fun, a wealth of knowledge, and took really good care of us! This was our first golf cart tour and really allowed us to cover some ground without walking super far in the process. Cannot recommend Tasting Tours and Scott enough!! We have done every good tour in st augustine and learn something new everytime-the PERFECT way to explore our favorite Florida town!! We will definitely be back!! .

View from their office in St A ... Can't touch this!

One of my absolute favorite things to do with new friends and old ... try out the ever-evolving ever-expanding food and restaurant revolution in the nations oldest continuously lived-in city! The incredible knowledgeable and competent staff under direction from Andi & Niki will guide groups from place to place while imparting fun facts about the Town. They have worked hard to develop strategic alliances with these small business owners and allow them to highlight a memorable food experience that will draw customers back time and again whether visiting or living local. They operate out of Jacksonville too! Don't miss this opportunity and foodie experience!

Beautiful views while tasting delicious wines!

ETA - went back for Vino for Valentine's. Just as wonderful! Did the Above the Lights Tour. Excellent! 6 wines with generous pours. Great boutique wines. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed!

My daughter and I had the best time on our Brunch Tour with Bonny. She was amazing! So friendly and informative. She told us a lot about the restaurants and chefs that we visited. I will definitely request her again.

www.thetastingtours.com ** Just remember that website ** So for my birthday, my wife surprised me by signing us to a Tasting Tour. This was a first time for both of us. As a foodie, it sounded very interesting. Then she mentioned wine, which I then became apprehensive about because I am more of a liquor/beer guy. I just don't have too much knowledge of wines. Fast forward to the tour, and I have to say I am more educated of The Wines 101. But that is just part of the tour, the others were sampling delicious foods/desserts/drink made by each shop. The Tasting Tours we went to was called "Saint Augustine Corks and Forks Tour" which is strolling tour. The tour includes 5 venues (I call them "pitstops"). It good to note that each tour is not equivalently the same and totally tailored and selected by your tour guide. Our fabulous tour guide, Laura took us the venues below. -- Athena Greek Restaurant -- Old City House Inn and Restaurant -- Casa De Vino 57 -- The Spice and Tea Exchange -- Chocolattes All in all, it was a fun and great experience. The weather was beautiful that day, which made this tour a very pleasant one. And it you have not been to one of these tours, I suggest you do. Come hungry and get ready to get your walk, eat and drink on.

My family and I did the Gritchmas! it was amazing and funny. St Augustine! The Grinch was 10/10 Thank You! Ken

We took a tour that was appropriately named, "Ghost with the Most" Pub Crawl! The Friday night tour was led by BeetleJuice! He was entertaining, friendly and had quick comebacks for every passerby! As we walked from pub to pub he gave us a ton of St Augustine history that even though I am a local, I did not know! Our group of 11 were entertained the entire time and went to new places that we had never been to. Overall, we made stops at 4 places. It was great because we were not rushed to "knock it down" but had time to talk, have a drink or two and use the restrooms. I recommend this pub crawl for tourists and locals. The tour guide was not corny - just a great guy to hang with for the night.

My husband and I did the Cork and Forks tour with Rachael. She was very pleasant and guided us to many local places. I felt we went to quite a few places we may not have seen and had enough time at each place to really enjoy it. I thought the food and all the cocktails/wine were superb. I highly recommend this to anyone that likes to try different foods and see local places. www.thetastingtours.com

We loved our Tasting Tour. We went to places we probably would not have discovered, and tried delicious foods we may not have ventured to try! Stress- free in a beautiful extended golf cart coach. Our guide Lisa was full of great stories, history, and insights of St. Augustine. Chef Angela prepared the best Tiramisu we ever tasted. At the end of the tour we got to enjoy the Wine Bar at the top of the Treasury building. Spectacular views, beautiful wines and foods. Great value- Looking forward to booking again soon with the Tasting Tours of St. Augustine- (They said they have partnerships with over 25 sites- and Tours can be different each time)

Ask the Community - The Tasting Tours

I am contemplating going on the corks and forks tour but wanted to know what locations you all stop at? Just want to compare one tour to another since the person I am going with has a limited pallet. Thank you!

Wine shop, italian, sandwich shop off the beaten path, caribbean or peruvian place and dessert shop. Wine or liquor offered at each stop. We were wonderfully boozy and full of the good food.

Corley was a lot of fun and traveling from place to place in his cute little red roadster really added to the experience.

Whether…read moreit's specialty truffles, chocolate bars, coated nuts or classic chocolate seashells, you're sure to be amazed. They have fudge, popcorns, brittles & even a variety of chocolate based wine & liqueur. While the delectable scent of fresh chocolate draws you in, the loaded displays around you are sure to keep you there. They've recently undergone some renovations which are finally done & the new store looks great. The floor has really been opened up & they did a great job at utilizing the space. Everything is organized nicely, prices are listed clearly & the store itself is spotless. While it may not be the biggest, it's easy to get carried away here as you look at the deliciousness surrounding you. I haven't personally tried them yet but their hot chocolates definitely caught my eye, they offer a nice handful of varieties. Even the coffee lovers, like myself, are recognized. They have a chocolate-flavored coffee that sounds interesting so I'm thinking about grabbing a bag on my next visit. The chocolate covered espresso beans are also delicious, although I like the milk chocolate ones way more than the dark. Every time I've visited this location the employees are so friendly. They acknowledge you as soon as you enter, they almost always offer help & they're efficient at handling crowds. Customer service goes a long way & they do a great job here. If you're just passing through or staying in St. Augustine then you need to give them a visit. In a world full of mass produced chocolate, it's a breath of fresh air to find a company that cares about serving amazing products. You can even do a factory tour at this location to find out all about their process!

This review is for the Christmas Light Tour…read more I had a very disappointing experience with St. Augustine Land and Sea Tours due to poor communication and a lack of integrity. I received a text message at 3:00 PM (sent at 1:15 PM, but not seen until later) stating that they were having mechanical issues with one of their carts and wanted to move my reservation to 8:00 PM. This did not work for me, as I cannot drive at night and the person driving me was unable to change his plans. They then asked if 6:30 PM would work, which I agreed to, but this change meant I now had to take an Uber since my driver had already made other arrangements. I requested a refund for the one person who could no longer attend due to their schedule change and was told the cancellation policy is 24 hours. I explained that the 24-hour policy should apply both ways, especially when the company is the one changing the reservation the day of the tour. To add to the confusion, I was then told I had been put back on my "original" time of 6:30 PM--however, my original reservation time was actually 7:30 PM. I would have gladly paid my $40 ticket and the additional $25 each way for Uber transportation if they had refunded the second ticket. However, paying $130 total just to look at Christmas lights is excessive. The fact that the company changed the schedule and still refused to refund the one ticket speaks volumes about their integrity. I highly do not recommend using this company for any tours.

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!

Very disappointing. This is advertised as a karaoke and holiday light tour with bubble machines and…read more3-D glasses, but none of that was provided--no bubble machine, no 3-D glasses, and only one microphone for a large group. There were 12 of us paying $45 each and taking up all the seats for this time slot, and the tour lasted just 19 minutes. We arrived only 6 minutes late, tours are booked on the hour, yet we didn't depart until 7:11 pm and were brought back at 7:29 pm--even though the next tour wasn't until 8:00. We did get hot cocoa and treats (as advertised), but overall it felt rushed, overpriced, and poorly run. Do NOT recommend. We were all very disappointed.

Our first stop was an adorable little wine shop where they had a table set and ready for us as we entered. We were treated to 4 different wines and a delicious charcuterie plate. We had a hard time choosing from their many cute wine themed gifts that we wanted to take home for souvenirs (shopping was optional but hard to resist). Our second stop was a quirky little duck stop where we were served a fun bubbly drink! There was a nice shop there too. But the best was saved for last where we enjoyed a fabulous chardonnay along with a gourmet beef tenderloin kabob and potato pave (I believe). The restaurant was closed and we had the patio to ourselves along with the attention of the chef and the wait staff. It was a wonderful way to end the tour. Jennalee made sure she kept us on schedule throughout the tour without rushing us. En route to each stop, she shared her knowledge of the town, landmarks, and history-so interesting! And her laugh is contageous! We would recommend this tour to anyone visiting St. Augustine!
