ST. AUGUSTINE • LIGHTNER MUSEUM
• DINNER • THE LIVES AND WIVES
OF HENRY FLAGLER PERFORMANCE
• VILANO BEACH:
Jekyll Island has a
fascinating history, and a tram tour is a
great way to explore it. Known as
Millionaire’s Island, it was once home to
a hunting club frequented by wealthy
families such as Vanderbilt, Rockefeller,
Morgan, Pulitzer and more. We stop by
the Jekyll Island Club for a delicious
lunch. Then we depart for St. Augustine,
known as the oldest city in the US and
frequently called the Ancient City. Our
first stop is the historic Hotel Alcazar
to visit Lightner Museum. Filled with
an extraordinary collection of antique
pieces from the Gilded Age, Lightner
offers an experience in not only art but
also architecture history and design.
We have an included
dinner at Raintree
followed by a rousing
performance of The
Lives and Wives of Henry
Flagler, the famous
industrialist and founder
of Standard Oil. Our
hotel is located at Vilano
Beach for the next two
nights. (L, D)
