Hello! Thanks for coming to check out my info! My name is Laura. I am a Chicagoland native, but I've been in Florida for almost 19 years. Saint Augustine has become my home away from home and my true love. Being a tour guide is my passion and brings me such joy. I am a St Augustine certified licensed guide. I also spend time in our research library with the Historical Society to dig deeper, as I always crave more information. That passion is even stronger for the guests I interact with and spend time with. I am a total people person! Which is why I love Tours by Locals as all the tours are private; therefore it is a relationship between guide and guests, as opposed to other places where you are herded in large groups and just a number or a passive participant in a lecture. Here you are an active participant. And your satisfaction is my top priority. On that note, I'd also like to mention that I am open to customization of your tour, if you have any specific area of interest that is not covered here already, or a location or theme you would like visited or to gain knowledge of. PLEASE feel free to reach out and share that with me and I will do my best to accommodate but certainly will be able to communicate about it. Thanks again for visiting! I hope to see you soon in our beautiful, Oldest Continually Occupied City in the United States! Happy travels, Laura :D

Overview of your Saint Augustine tour

Stroll the historic district, getting wonderful tidbits of information and see the sites while also getting your photos taken at many different locations! Make it what and where you want! See the iconic locations but also the 'hidden' ones, or off the beaten path type. Your photos can be candid, posed, silly, fun, dramatic, serious. . . or all of the above! Let yourself loose and have a great time! I've even had people dress in costume for these :D Period type, pirates, you name it. I was a photographer long before I became a tour guide and after years of walking these ancient streets and memorable sites, it dawned on me: why not combine these two? It was a wonderful idea and has been so much fun. Please come join me and get some totally unique and different vacation pictures all while still learning some interesting facts.

Your Saint Augustine tour itinerary

This tour has no 'set' route.   We will discuss your likes or dislikes, your interests and places you may like to capture.  That will give us main goals and areas of town.   The tour itself is very much in-the-moment.  While we stroll, if we pass something that is interesting or sparks your attention, we can go grab a pic. But have no fear: if you really don't know or are stumped, I am happy to lead you to my favorite spots and great opportunities.   Here are some bigger iconic favorites: *Castillo de San Marcos *Bayfront and Bridge of Lions *iconic streets like Aviles & Spanish *Palm Row *Lightner Museum *Collector Inn, coquina walls and gates Little hidden romantic or quaint doorways, gates, courtyards, stairs. . .   Pets welcome ! Pictures are taken on a specialized device made specifically for mobile capturing, so lugging a heavy camera is not needed.   I look forward to creating fantastic keepsakes with you as well as interesting information for you to go home with.
