Злий святий Августин: контрабанди, публічні будинки та азартні ігри в стародавньому місті

Огляд

The Wicked St. Augustine tour delves into the unwritten history of the nation's oldest city. You will hear stories of the illicit industries that made the town a financial success, all while avoiding the reputation of a sinful city. From its founding St. Augustine had a thriving tavern, gambling and prostitution industry, even while portraying a city founded on religious principles. See the locations of high stakes gambling, speak easy taverns, and private clubs which skirted around the laws of the day, like prohibition. Learn how the political powers knew of these activities, secretly supported their providers, all while keeping a squeaky clean image.

The tour started off with problems. We started early and there was one person came up just before the start time she was given. The guide supposedly had been told a different time then the rest of us. The guide told many tales. Most of the time these stories are based on some truth but embellished for effect. But when another person in the group has family with direct contact with the person in the story and no history of such tales one has to wonder about some of the other stories as well. Also at this time I have not found any documentation of said tales. (Still Checking)The guide did say at the end of the tour that this was his first tour on this subject. Would recommend more research. I went on several walking tours while in the city and no other history ever referred to some of his stories.

So sorry you did not enjoy your experience. Our stories are based on the Wicked St. Augustine book. The stories have been exhaustively researched by the author and we stand behind her research. The subject matter of this tour is not usually covered on most tours, which is what sets it apart.

He was very knowledgeable about the area and who lived there at that time in history. Really enjoyed the tour!!! Took us around the downtown area and gave interesting information in regards to the behind the scenes of the wealthy and also no so wealthy. How some of the most powerful people weren't the elite
