This walking tour explores the Gilded Age period of history, when St. Augustine became known as "America's Riviera."

Flagler's magnificent hotels, the Ponce de Leon Hotel (now Flagler College) and the Hotel Alcazar (now the Lightner Museum), as well as the magnificent Memorial Presbyterian Church, are all stops on this 75-minute guided walking tour.
