Blanco was an amazing guide! He's very passionate about what he does, which shows in his tours! 100% would recommend taking this tour with Blanco as your guide!
Ideal for families, this ghost tour of St. Augustine’s spookiest sites combines light-hearted fun with spine-tingling tales of the city’s past. Alongside a costumed guide, you visit cemeteries, the ground of the Old Fort, and other haunted locations to discover the little-known legends that surround the romantic venue. This tour is limited in order to maintain an atmosphere suitable for the ghost walk. • Haunted ghosts walk around historic St. Augustine • Ideal for families, the tour combines humor with spooky stories. • Visit allegedly haunted spots such as the Old Fort and local cemeteries. • Keep your eyes peeled for restless souls in two cemeteries.

I did a ghost tour in Nashville and had so much fun and thought I would add this to our itinerary in St Augustine. The first red flag was how poorly the guide handled a homophobic guest trying to get the guide to say the British word for cigarettes. There was an interesting story about the fort and the British, French and Spanish solders. However that was as good as it got. The guide was easily distracted and went from one story to another without completing a thought. It was impossible to follow and our group decided to drift away before the tour ended. Would not recommend.

What a fun way to spend a night! Our tour guides were Blanco and Zack, and they both had great stories, interesting evidence, and humorous takes. I especially appreciated Blanco being dressed as a pirate.

My boyfriend and I went to this tour last night (January 11th 8pm) and Blanco was incredible. He made the entire experience fun and spooky. He had an awesome personality, dry sense of humor and overall really fun person. His story telling was excellent and you could tell he really enjoyed his job and wanting to make your experience the best. Thank you!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
