The Quackery tour was interesting, but not COVID safe. With the current rise in cases in the area, I was surprised to be the only person wearing a mask in such a small space. I would have left had there been more people in my tour group (there were only 4 plus the guide). If you are concerned about COVID transmission, I'd skip this one for now.

We are sorry you did not feel comfortable, but our tour is limited to only 15 persons. We have complimentary hand sanitizer throughout the museum for guests, and we sanitize the rooms between tours.

This was one of the BEST night time tours you will find in St. Augustine! This tour was engaging, entertaining, funny, and I learned quite a few things at the same time! Our tour guide was awesome, and even gave time to answer questions. This is hands down the best evening tour I have taken in St. Augustine, and I HIGHLY recommend.
