Follow along with me on my 2 days
I was lucky to have 2 days to see so many fun attractions in this beautiful town. There is so much to see, so I decided to be right at Old Town Trolley when it opened at 9:00 am. Exploring St. Augustine is a breeze with the Old Town Trolley and is the perfect way to experience all the charm and history of the nation’s oldest city. With convenient stops at iconic landmarks, the trolley makes it easy to explore each destination at your own pace. Your driver is not only getting you to each spot, are also your knowledgeable tour guides. If you want to get off and explore at a stop you can do so, or you can choose to remain on the tour and continue learning about the town. Here is what I did at my favorite stops:
Old Jail
 Step back in time and learn about law enforcement history at this historic jailhouse. Guided tours feature fascinating stories about its past, complete with eerie tales of the inmates who once lived there. The preserved cells and artifacts give visitors a chilling glimpse into 19th-century justice. Some facts that will stick with you is that death row cells face the galley’s where prisoners are hung, so they can see their fate. It is also sad to see the names carved in the walls of the death row cells. You will get chills as you walk in to the cells after hearing the stories.
Oldest Store Museum
As you step through the doors, you’ll be transported to a time when steam-driven tractors were the latest innovation and health elixirs promised miraculous cures. The museum’s extensive collection includes vintage farm equipment, corsets, tonics, and even a goat-powered washing machine. The costumed guides don’t just show you these items; they demonstrate them, providing a hands-on understanding of early 20th-century life.
