4 /5 astrida mcfarland: We took a trolley tour to get here and got to enjoy the beautiful trees with Spanish Moss hanging from the branches as we entered the Historic Fountain of Youth park. You can buy your tickets at the entrance and either take the guided tour or do a
self-tour with the map they give you. We did the self tour and were there for about 3 hours in order to see everything. I watched as my daughter climbed up to the top of the water tower to see the beautiful views and photo ops. We also checked out the Fountain of Youth and drank from it. However, we have not become younger looking. Oh well. We also watched the cannon shooting demonstrations. The tour was worth going on. Tickets were $23 per adult.
The gift shop was great with all kinds of cool items about Ponce de Leon and the Fountain of Youth.
I loved the Southern BBQ restaurant on premises. Delicious BBQ sandwiches and more. You gotta try it!
There is a large parking lot for free parking.
