Since 1598, a government building has stood on this site with a view of the harbor landing, accommodating administrative headquarters and residences of colonial governors appointed by the Crowns of Spain, then Britain, then Spain again. After Spain ceded Florida to the United States in 1821, this current Government House served as a courthouse and briefly as a Capitol of the new Territory of Florida.

What a great experience! Amy and Alex were the greatest in making our experience so much fun. We started off at the brunch place that had fantastic drinks. They made us a special Tiramisu shake. Never even heard of that. Amy then guided us to 4 different chocolate places in the heart of historic St Augustine. Amy was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the information she provided us. It happened to be a beautiful 70 degree day, which made our adventure thru St. George St and around very pleasurable. I would highly recommend this tour to learn some unique facts about St Augustine and get some unbelievable Chocolate. I left there very full from all the goodies they gave us along with our own little travel cooler. Make this trip. Its worth it!Evolyn_V
