We thoroughly enjoyed the ride through historic St. Augustine. I would highly recommend it> We took the 30 minute ride, and Kurt, our driver put on an `improv` show the entire time. Most of the pedestrians thought it was hilarious, too. Watson, the horse was very friendly, also. Was very well worth it. More

We stayed in St. Augustine over the 2011 Fourth of July following a stay infield at Daytona in our RV. It was kind of a last minute stop so we had not made any detailed plans. We often times take a carriage ride to view the towns we visit. Some tourguides are great some are so so, and some are... More

Tickets are good for three days. Every time you get on you hear something new. Each driver has a new twist to the stories. We really loved traveling around the city hopping off and on at our whim. I do suggest that you do not sit in the seats directly behind the driver. the engine is there and it is... More

My Girlfriend and I took our second carriage ride with Kurt and Amos this past weekend. Our first tour with Kurt and Watson was in December and we knew that when we returned to Saint Augustine we must reunite with Kurt for relaxing ride and some laughs, so we made sure to ask for him by name. Kurt kept us... More

We took 2 trips with the St. Augustine Transfer Company. Both were very enjoyable. This is a very relaxing way to get a nice historical view of the city. We did a historic tour in the morning with Brandon & "Sherlock Holmes" and had a wonderful time. In the evening we took a ghost tour. As it turned out our... More

Christmas Eve, we took a horse & carriage ride with St. Augustine Transfer Company arranged by the fantastic folks at the Victorian house. Our carriage driver Curt & his horse Mr. Watson were outstanding, an entertaining blend of humor, history & holiday cheer. We learned a great deal about historic St Augustine from Curt all the while laughing out loud... More

We booked our ride with our B & B and were picked up right out front. From the time our driver John and his partner "Barney" arrived it was a lot of fun. We have visited St. Augustine many many times but had never taken a carriage ride until Saturday 03DEC2011. John asked if we wanted the romantic or the... More

Myself, my husband and our two children just spent an hour with Kurt and Mr. Watson the horse. Not only was Kurt EXTREMELY knowledgable about St. Augustine history but he was also very comical. Our shy children came out of their shells quickly with Kurt's humor. A carriage ride during www.nightsoflights.com is a MUST! Don't waste your $ on mediocre... More
