Public Art Tour in Jacksonville
Description
The Certified Public Art Tour is the first of its kind collaboration with the renowned ArtRepublic Global. Go Tuk’n is proud to be the certified provider of this in-depth experience of our public art throughout the urban core of Jacksonville, Florida. Jessica Santiago, CEO of ArtRepublic, has stated “this tour makes us and the artists themselves proud to have Go Tuk’n bring this tour to our city. This will allow locals and visitors alike to see the works of art we have so passionately contributed to our city. The word “tour” doesn’t do this experience justice.” You will not only see the art itself but you will learn about the artists and the inspiration behind each and every piece. By continuously collaborating with ArtRepublic Global, Go Tuk’n will maintain our ongoing knowledge of new pieces of artwork, the accuracy of the information is straight from the artists themselves and allows us to give back to our artists community.

Toni is just awesome. She started out by guiding we 2 lost Vermonters to her venue- via phone- who'd missed a turn on the way there, then gotten spectacularly lost in Jacksonville (prior to calling Toni). Got the full tour apon our arrival. Outdoor murals + sculptures were superb. (Note: the pictured "Mouth" sculpture has been moved to a private home, + can no longer be viewed.) Toni is extemely knowledgeable, friendly, nice, + funny. :) :)
Thank you for taking our Certified Publix Art tour. We are so glad you spent time with us exploring all the amazing Public art (over 80 murals, mosaics and statues). We hope you will visit us again and take one of our other 17+ tours we offer. The "Mouth" is at the home of Dr. Wayne Woods whose home is our Jacksonville Residential Architecture & History tour. Dr. Wood's wife restored the Mouth after graffiti had caused damage to it. Some of the student artwork does get moved which is a wonderful way of seeing new installments. Thank you again for allowing us to show off all these amazing works of art! Steph Dale Founder/Chief Tuk'n Officer
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable of the art, the artists, and the Jacksonville area in general. She really turned around our perception of the city and we highly recommend!
Thank you for taking our Certified Public Art Tour. This unique tour allows us to provide the details of over 80 murals, mosaics and statues right in the heart of Downtown Jacksonville. The beautiful stories behind each piece is truly magical. And we hope you'll come visit us again soon and take one of our other 17+ tours we offer. Each of them show off the community so uniquely and the architecture/history are expansive. Thank you again, Steph Dale Founder/Chief Tuk'n Officer
We are longtime residents of Jacksonville and have seen but not SEEN much of the public art downtown. This tour alerted us to the many art organizations and artists providing art installations in the public sphere. Toni, our guide was pleasant and very informative. The weather was pleasant- The Tuk- larger than a golf cart and smaller than a van - had shading but had open sides might be less than ideal if too hot, cold or rainy. All in all, a great way to spend the afternoon. Would recommend for Jax residents or visitors to the city. Never knew about this company but look forward to taking another of their tours.
Thank you so much for taking the time to experience our Certified Public Art Tour! It’s truly a joy to share the beauty of over 80 incredible murals, mosaics, and sculptures with our guests. We’re thrilled you had the chance to dive deeper into the stories and talents behind these amazing works of art. Just a quick note — our Tuk Tuks are ready for any weather! We provide covers and blankets when it’s chilly, rain protection when needed, and ways to keep you comfortable through the summer heat. Plus, for larger groups, we offer our Executive Coach, which seats up to 14 guests. We hope to see you again soon on one of our 17+ unique tours — or join us for one of our seasonal experiences too! Thank you again for your support. It truly means the world to us. Warmly, Steph Dale Founder & Chief Tuk’n Officer

Amazing to see over 40 murals and sculptures and hear about the artists and their methods. Guide never referred to written materials but knew all the facts. Also saw all sides of the Jaguar stadium plus learned about churches, new greenway trail ,government buildings, and much more. Guide was awesome and whole experience well worth the money.
The tour was awesome. Toni was a wonderful tour guide. It was nice to see all the work done by these very talented artists 🎨.
