Government House Museum & Visitor's Information Center

n
  While the museum has very good displays and information about St. Augustine’s early history, it’s all contained is just one room which makes the admission price of $8.00 per person high compared to other museums of the same size.

  Everything is accessible.

  Parking is limited in most areas of St. Augustine especially for oversized vehicles.There’s a free parking lot for RVs only on the corner of West Castillo and Riberia Street, west of the visitor center and parking garage ( which has all day parking for cars – $10.00 or free with a handicap permit ). The signs in the lot are a little confusing. There is no fee except if you’re staying twenty four hours but sleeping overnight in the lot is prohibited. The lot isn’t close to anything so expect to walk or roll at least 1/2 a mile or more to any of the attractions. Most of the sidewalks and curb cuts are in very good condition and the terrain is flat so it’s fairly easy to get around. Another option is to park at the Old Jail and buy a pass for the Old Town Trolley. Wheelchair access on the trolley sounds less than ideal.They require 24 hour notice, can not use the ramp at all of the stops and do not have on/off service for wheelchair passengers.  Museum
