St. Augustine's Not Just a Chocolate Tour invites visitors to experience the rich tapestry of America's oldest city in a delightfully sweet way. This walking tour is perfect for those who enjoy their historical exploration paired with delectable treats. Operated by St. Augustine Experiences, the same team renowned for their #1-rated Beer & History Crawl, this tour offers a unique blend of culinary indulgence and historical storytelling. The 90-minute journey begins at 210 St. George Street, at the Ancient City Brunch Bar, where guests will meet their guide. With a small group of no more than eight participants, the tour promises an intimate and engaging experience. As the group meanders through approximately 0.8 miles of the Historic District's cobblestone streets, they will stop at a selection of the city's beloved local shops. These stops include candy shops, bakeries, and confectionery destinations that are often hidden from the typical tourist path. At each location, participants are treated to tasting sessions that feature an array of chocolates, pralines, and other locally crafted confections. To complement these sweet delights, coffee, tea, and bottled water are provided throughout the tour. One of the highlights is the take-home insulated bag given to each guest, which gradually fills with goodies collected at each stop. This feature ensures that the sweet experience continues long after the tour concludes, making it akin to a grown-up version of trick-or-treating. The tour is not just about satisfying a sweet tooth; it is also a journey through time. As participants enjoy their treats, the guide shares captivating stories about St. Augustine's storied past. The narrative includes insights into significant landmarks such as the Cathedral Basilica, the Governor's House Cultural Center, and the St. Photios Greek Orthodox National Shrine. These stories are woven together through the lens of the city's food culture and culinary heritage, offering a unique perspective on how these elements have influenced St. Augustine over nearly five centuries. St. Augustine's Not Just a Chocolate Tour is family-friendly and provides an excellent alternative for those who prefer an immersive experience without the bar scene.
