… from air, land, and sea.

From hundreds of feet above sea level – with nothing but a starry night to distract you – a Nights of Lights tour from a helicopter certainly gives you a different perspective.

Then again, you can always view the Nights of Lights while remaining at ground level when you choose from a variety of land tours.   There are horse and carriage rides, or the Old Town Trolley or Ripley’s Red Train among others.   Or, what about a walking tour on your own exploring the twinkling display.

However, St. Augustine is a city unlike any other with an exceptional bay to match it!  So, if you’d like a truly different vantage point from the water, there are plenty of options to select from.
