Your St. Louis tour begins with your guide picking you up from your downtown hotel and heading out on a scenic drive in a comfortable Mercedes Metris van through the city, passing by notable sites such as Busch Stadium, City Hall, the St. Louis Art Museum, Tower Grove Park, the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Louis, King of France and the St. Louis Zoo. Along the way, your guide will share interesting facts and background about each one along the way.
The first stop is the Basilica of Saint Louis, King of France, one of the oldest churches in the city. This historic cathedral is simple but beautiful, has colorful stained glass, detailed artwork, and peaceful surroundings. It's an architectural masterpiece to marvel at.
Next, you'll head to the riverfront for a relaxing riverboat cruise on the Mississippi River (available seasonally from March through November). The serene cruise offers a beautiful view of the Gateway Arch and its surroundings. As you relax on a modern riverboat, you’ll take in the spectacular views of the Mississippi River and the city skyline.
You’ll then visit the Gateway Arch National Park and ride to the top of the Arch for 360-degree views of the city and surrounding area. It’s a true American icon that shouldn't be missed when visiting St. Louis.
Once you are back to the ground, you’ll have ample time to explore Gateway Arch National Park, including its museum, Museum of Westward Expansion, with interactive displays and exhibits about the city’s history.
At the end of the tour, your guide will bring you back to your downtown St. Louis hotel, leaving you with wonderful memories of St. Louis.
