Stay for a St Augustine Food and Wine Tour

The culinary scene in St. Augustine has never been better, so this is the perfect time to stay for a St. Augustine food and wine tour. There are several St Augustine tour companies that offer culinary tours in the oldest city. 

There are still a couple of weeks left in January to see of the "Nights of Lights" in St. Augustine and The Tasting Tours offers nightly tours.  Their 'Vittles and Vino' tour is offered as a walking tour or as a carriage tour.  This food and wine tour was voted best crawl in St. Augustine.  Other tours offered include a 'Pub and Grub" tour and even a 'wine, chocolate, and cheese' tour.

'Tour de Chocolate' is offered by St Augustine City Walks Tours.  It offers a 2-hour exploration of the history of chocolate from the Aztecs and Mayans to Europe via the Spanish Conquistadors.  City walks also offers a wonderful pub crawl.

Whetstone is the original St Augustine chocolate family and they offer a daily tour of their St Augustine chocolate factory.  The 1 hour tour covers the history of making chocolate, the whetstone history, and a tour of the factory.  Their 4-tiered sampling that matches dark, milk and white chocolate.

Food and wine tours are an excellent way of discovering the quality of the culinary diversity of the St. Augustine restaurants and confectioners.  Staying in the heart of the historic district in a St Augustine is the perfect match for a food and wine tour of the oldest city.  Carriage Way bed and breakfast is the better way to stay!
