Simple but fun! - Gary's tour was a lot of fun. The misc facts aout the area were great tidbits. Being it was just my family, he combined 2 tours into one and pointed out attractions you normally wouldn't see on a bigger tour. Def would take another tour with him again.

Highly recommended and informative - Gary is very friendly and always up for a joke. We got to know St Augustine better through him and received a lot of background information. We booked the 1 hour trip and ended up being on the road for 1.5 hours. Thank you very much Gary. Gabi & Andre Eggenschwiler

Pineapple Patty was awesome! - We booked a private historical city tour, for our party of six adults. Patty picked us up at our B&B (Carriage Way Inn) in our private golf cart right on time and off we went. We booked it for four hours and wanted to extend, as we had so much fun and learned so much. Patty was a wealth of information telling us history, stories, explaining political and religious reigns and even stopped for several (local only knowledge) photo opportunities. We stopped mid-day and included Patty with our family for a drink and some snacks at the Ice Plant. This tour was far above the touristy "train" ride experience you will get. Take the time to truly learn about St Augustines history with this group, and ask for Patty if she is available.

Wonderful Historic District Tour with Fabulous Guide ! - My wife and I had a wonderful Historic District Tour with Pineapple's guide/driver Patty last Friday.  She was personable, informative, experienced, and went the extra mile or two to answer questions and weave a wonderful route and story line about the area and its distinguished early settlers and inhabitants that we will remember for a long time.  This being our first visit to St Augustine, we did not know what to expect so all of this unfolded in such an interesting and engaging way due to Patty and her knowledge and personality.  We are so glad we opted for a Pineapple Tour vs the rambling tour trains that cannot access all the small nooks and crannies on the narrow cobblestone streets that your small vehicles can easily navigate. We will definitely return and will request Pineapple and your wonderful guide Patty in the future. John and Ann Youngbeck (active seniors)Santa Rosa Beach, FL
