Downtown Jacksonville Tour

Downtown Jacksonville History & Architecture Tour

Jacksonville is the largest landmass city in the United States. All of our history and artwork is spread across many areas. There is no better way to see and learn about our downtown history than on a tuk tuk. Our downtown Jacksonville landscape is ever changing but our history and how we have developed the unique spaces are strongly preserved. In 1901, the great fire of Jacksonville quickly swept through the area and destroyed our downtown. Thankfully architects from around the world heard about our plight and came to help us design our buildings. On this wonderful tour, you will also experience several memorials and the oldest living thing in our city, the great Treaty Oak. A fun addition is being able to ride in our luxury tuk tuk over our historic Main Street bridge.
