In addition, the VIC is staffed with friendly fully licensed tour guide hosts who gladly share information on attractions, museums, tours, accommodations, restaurants and unique shopping opportunities. The VIC is where a St. Augustine vacation begins, whether you plan to stay a day, a weekend or an entire week.

Adjacent to the VIC  is the Historic Downtown Parking Facility, a 1,200 car facility that has proven to be visitors' favorite location for quick-and-easy parking. Open 24 hours a day every day of the year the parking facility is convenient to St. George St. and San Marco Ave. as well as the Castillo de San Marcos National Monument.
