The building architecture and the gardens are beautiful. There were many collections to peruse, which were housed on 3 levels. It took us about two hours to make our way through, but you could easily spend 3 if you take your time and read everything. The floors all have a front and rear. The best suggestion we were given is to start on the 3rd floor an make our way down. The staff on hand were friendly and readily available to answer any of your questions. You can make a reservation for lunch at the Cafe, which is located on the lower level of what was once a pool.

Nice Festival with a lot of variety of beers. I/we had a good time, but there definitely needs to…read morebe some improvements and changes. We bought the VIP passes which included all the stuff as general admission and in addition to this it offered parking, a t-shirt, an air-conditioned area and a food buffet. The t-shirt was pretty cool. We ended up not using the parking since we made arrangements to be dropped off and picked up. The air-conditioned area was nice to have. The issue was with the food. By purchasing the VIP tickets we thought it would alleviate standing in long food lines. If you state that you are having a buffet, then you should have a buffet and this is the fault of the planners. It was far from a "buffet". The Mellow Mushroom provided pizza and a few other things like sandwiches and another company (can't remember the name) offered fresh oysters. It wouldn't have been bad, but the Mellow Mushroom ran out of food immediately and the waits were awful to get more. Once food did come, it was gone in minutes, if not seconds. We never got anything and a lot of other folks didn't either due to the incompetence of the Mellow Mushroom staff. The Mellow Mushroom was paid to provide food and one male Mellow Mushroom employee, in particular, was making fun of customers who were expecting to get what they paid for who simply asked when food would be arriving. The Mellow Mushroom company should never be invited back in my opinion and were absolutely awful. My only hope is that they didn't get paid since they didn't provide what they should have. After all, the VIP tickets were sold out, so it's not as if they didn't know how many customers they were having. They didn't make the food there either, they were relying on delivery. The oyster company was absolutely amazing. They hustled and didn't stop shucking until the last oyster was served. We all clapped when they were done. I suppose we all expected that the food from the Mellow Mushroom and oyster company were temporary until the buffet was put out. But the buffet never happened. If you are gluten intolerant and/or have a shellfish allergy you were just out of luck to begin with and you didn't even know it until you got there since you were expecting a "buffet". I must say, the attendees were all very cool. Things really could have gotten dicey with the Mellow Mushroom issues and attitude. But folks seemed to enjoy their beer and relax. We met some great people there and had a nice time. I believe we'd go back, but I should hope this was a learning experience for the planners as well. In my opinion, if you choose to buy a general admission ticket...just bring your own chair. The lines to buy food weren't bad. The lines to get beer seem to go quickly and no matter if you are general admission or VIP...you all get your beer in the same place. I really wish I could give a higher rating. I would give them a 5, but since we paid for the VIP tickets and basically didn't get what we paid for fully and had to endure the attitudes from the Mellow Mushroom staff I can only give it a 3.5. And since you can't do half numbers...it doesn't warrant a 4, so a 3 it is! (End Note: sorry for the delay, I didn't realize I never finished this review)

This museum, though small, is quite well done. I wouldn't bring young kids under 7 or 8, though,…read morebecause the interactive activities require reading and writing, but my 12 year-old enjoyed it. There is a treasure hunt throughout the museum that requires writing down the hidden treasure found. At the end, kids can get "treasure" (a plastic gold coin) for completing the hunt. There are several exhibits that they claim are one of only a few in the world such as a genuine "Jolly Roger" flag and a treasure chest. The stories of about 20 pirates are shown throughout the museum. If you go through the museum, taking your time, it takes about an hour. For that, I think the price for kids ($9.99 if purchased from the website) is reasonable. However the adult price ($18.99 online) is too much. If you are in St. Augustine, especially on a hot or rainy day, it is worth an hour of your time.

He gave a thorough and helpful explanation of how everything would work and encouraged us to ask questions at any point. The experience was very interactive, we were texting back and forth with the hosts throughout the hunt, sending pictures, asking questions, and submitting answers. They were extremely responsive and accommodating. It's clear they are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about what they do, which really adds to the experience. The scavenger hunt itself was fun, engaging, and packed with interesting stories, and we loved that it's designed to go at your own pace. We took our time, even stopping for drinks along the way, which made it even more enjoyable. It's a fantastic way to explore the full downtown area, get some steps in, and experience the city in a unique way. We're already looking forward to the future app/online version and would love to see this come to Savannah, GA!
