Recommend! Fun tour - Our tour guide was very nice and super knowledgeable. This was a fun tour. Note: we went early March so there was no cruise involved. However, we saw and learned a lot so it was worth the price.

Great tour - Our guide Mike was friendly and welcoming. It was just my family on the tour, so we got to start early, and customize our experience. He even had an umbrella readily available for us when it started to snow/rain. We learned a lot about Saint Louis and saw several landmarks. The Arch ride experience was awesome and the new cathedral was breathtaking. Union Station was amazing too. No cruise this time of year, but still a great tour to get to know the city.

Excellent St. Louis tour with a great view from the top! - We had a fantastic time with our guide Melissa S.! She was fantastic to learn from, very knowledgeable about St. Louis history, and very pleasant. The arch museum was fantastic, I recommend spending a few extra minutes here to go through the history before heading to the top of the arch for astounding views of St. Louis.
10/10 would recommend this tour with Melissa!

Great afternoon excursion! - We enjoyed seeing St. Louis through a local’s eyes. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant to share the afternoon with. The only downside was not knowing in advance the boat tour was not an option this time of year. We were looking forward to getting out on the river. The experience is definitely worth doing if you are new to the area!

I scheduled this tour... - I scheduled this tour early in the morning for 2 o’clock. It was paid for and confirmed. At 2 o’clock I was waiting in the lobby for a pick up from the tour guide and I got a call saying the tour is canceled. This was my last day in town and I planned my day around this three hour tour. Customer service would’ve known early in the day that this tour was canceled but they waited until the last minute to ruin the day for me.
