There is a new and innovative way to experience St. Augustine, Florida. GPS multimedia pedicab tour – “Shivers and Awe Ghost Ride” – enhance the haunted tourism experience of North America’s oldest city in an environmentally friendly way.

Using GPS technology, originally scored background music, professional sound effects, and voice narration of the highest cinematic quality, the tour takes visitors on a one-hour riding adventure that captivates with ghost stories and paranormal phenomena on a riding tour experience that intertwines with St. Augustine’s rich history and magnificent architectural ambiance.

St. Augustine Pedicab’s mission is to provide safe, fun, and convenient transportation throughout downtown St. Augustine while keeping the city, its residents, tourists, and the environment in mind.

“We are excited about the opportunity to team up and deliver innovative and rich tour experiences that offer visitors to St. Augustine compelling stories and outstanding audio theatre experiences,” said Jeff Tabor, President and CEO, SAGPS Adventure Tours. “I envision that this tour will add to our success that we are already having here with the Shivers and Awe walking tour.”

St. Augustine Pedicab provides a comfortable, safe, and environmentally friendly way to see St. Augustine. The bicycle cab is equipped with surround-sound stereo speakers, leather seats, and a bike “cabbie” that is at their service.

“I am very excited about working with ‘Shivers and Awe’ Ghost Tours. I believe that integrating our Pedicab services will add a unique element to the tour that allows the customer to explore on their own while also enjoying the comfort and convenience of riding in the Pedicab”, said Josh Thompson, Owner of St. Augustine Pedicab

Tours trigger content automatically around St. Augustine’s paranormal sites, providing location-based experiences on a one hour tour route that is available in Spanish as well as English.

“We are thrilled to launch this tour guide system in St. Augustine,” said Jonathan Stanley, President and CEO of AudioConexus Inc. “We worked closely with SAGPS Adventure Tours to deliver fun and entertaining experiences, presenting a series of ghost stories that turned me into a believer. We’re very excited about our continued success with SAGPS Tour Adventures and being a part of entertaining and educational stories for visitors seeking a whole new way to experience the paranormal phenomenon of St. Augustine.”
