Let the Holidays begin!
One of St. Augustine’s most anticipated traditions offers ticket holders the opportunity to view the decorated interiors of some of the City’s most beautiful homes while taking in exquisite floral arrangements and displays throughout.
This year’s Tour of Homes will be held on Sunday, December 2, from noon to 5pm. Tickets are $30 and include: a walking tour, a program, with map, highlighting each of the 6 homes decorated by members of the Garden Club, and a formal Tea and Boutique located at the River House from noon to 4pm. You won’t want to miss this exciting event!
This is a walking tour however, if in need, limited complimentary trolley service is available from the parking garage on West Castillo. The trolley will run from noon to 4:30pm from the garage to the River House and the homes in between.
Service is provided by “Old Town Trolley” (green and orange trollies).
These lovely homes, generously offered by their owners, showcase an array of architectural styles from various periods and are all conveniently located in downtown St. Augustine, South of King Street, in the neighborhoods of Lincolnville and Bayfront.
At the River House, in addition to delicious, complimentary, homemade refreshments and the stunning view on the terrace, you will find a raffle and a dazzling array of handmade gifts, decorations and treats available for purchase.
