It was definitely informative. I was able to learn about St. Augustine and its past. Trying to find where it was located was a bit hard and the “tour” was pretty short.

Very historical! Alot of information! Would have liked for the museum to be larger and have more information. And maybe even someone there to guide you through and answer questions. Clean and good air conditioning inside! Overall. Very nice!

This is inside Gator Bob's Trading Post. This is a free museum, don't know why it says there's an admission. This also the first stop for the Trolley Tours, so if you have some time check this out. This has a time line from the prehistoric native americans to present day St Augustine. I was very interested in the artifacts from the Spanish era. A lot of interesting things. There's also a big silver bar on display. I didn't spend as much time as the couple behind me, but I enjoyed it!

Free with Old Town Trolley tour. Takes you through St. Augustine history, from Native Americans, Spanish control, civil war and Henry Flagler contribution to the area. It takes between 45 minutes to an hour to tour.

This was not a worthwhile experience. The ores stairs weee shallow and it left out critical contributions of the enslaved population. It glossed over history in a way that I found incredibly misleading.

History of the town is so interesting and the scenery is beautiful. If you’re a history buff like us it’s a must see.

A decent small museum with through history of Saint Augustine. There aren’t any guides to take your ticket or to questions which is not necessary as it’s small. On that note, there were people who were walking inside the lobby area who saw the entrance and just walked in without a ticket.
