We've done a couple Hop On Hop Off excursions here and there, St. Augustine is laid out well. While we only did one day this time, the two day is awesome for first timers.

All of the driver were well very knowledgable of the history of St Augustine. The trollys were clean. There was about a 15 - 20 minute gap between trollys so the wait at a stop for a trolly was minimal.
