Half-Day City Tour in Downtown Jacksonville

Overview

In 1901, the great fire of Jacksonville quickly swept through the area and destroyed our downtown. Thankfully architects from around the world heard about our plight and came to help us design our buildings. On this wonderful tour, you will also experience several memorials and the oldest living thing in our city, the great Treaty Oak. A fun addition is being able to ride in our luxury tuk tuk over our historic Main Street bridge.

History, Business Architectural Achievements, Memorials and more. Your Downtown Jacksonville City tour has it all – plus hidden gems locals don’t even know about! Explore beautiful city landscape of Downtown Jacksonville and learn about the region’s rich and varied history at the beach and along the banks of the St. John’s River.

This was a fun, informative tour of Jacksonville. Toni was incredibly knowledgeable about the city and a great ambassador for it. Loved the small group size and the TUK transportation. This is a must-do for a visit to Jacksonville.
