Private Tour of St. Louis's Iconic BBQ Joints & Breweries
Overview

Mobile ticket
St. Louis is one of America's great beer and BBQ cities, and this private tour takes you straight to the heart of both.
Your guide Wayne drives you to a hand-picked lineup of the city's best smokehouses and breweries, from nationally acclaimed spots like Side Project Brewing to the legendary Anheuser-Busch Biergarten. Each stop is chosen for what it does best, whether that's a perfect rack of ribs, a small-batch sour, or an American Lager in a beer hall with 170 years of history.
Between stops, Wayne fills in the story of how German immigrants turned St. Louis into the beer capital of America, why the city's BBQ style is its own thing, and where the locals actually eat everyday.
Food and drinks are purchased by your group at each stop, so you choose exactly what you want.
***Larger private group tours (up to 55 guests) are available. Please contact us for options, pricing, and availability***

5.00Wayne is the GOAT. This private BBQ and brewery tour in St. Louis was incredible—he clearly loves the city and has so much knowledge to share. The tour is super flexible and he even took us to places not on the list to make sure we had the best experience. His car is amazing, and he made everything easy and comfortable, even dropping us off at a different hotel. You could try to Uber around to these spots, but it wouldn’t compare—you’d miss all the history, insight, and hidden gems.
Gotta do this tour!!

5.00My daughter and I had a amazing tour. Wayne is the tour guide and the tour is private. We weren't sure what to expect, especially since we aren't beer drinkers. However we are bbq lovers. With that said he understood and adjusted the tour to fit our liking. We started off at Pappys bbq and it did not disappoint. Being from St. Louis helped with the sightseeing. He is very knowledgeable and proud of his city. We went to Anheuser-Busch, and that was very nice. I got to try four different beers. I must say the St. Louis Catholic Cathedral. Is a must see, and you don't have to be Catholic to appreciate its beauty. We went to another restaurant and other amazing places around the city. My daughter and I enjoyed our tour and highly recommend it. Bonus note. He takes your picture at every spot. I can't wait to see ours. And one last thing to keep in mind. Your tour is private so don't be afraid to let him know you like wine and not beer. Or you just want to sightsee and eat.
Highly recommend

5.00Wayne was a great guide for a tour of the city's breweries and BBQ joints. Clearly knowledgeable about each spot and flexible as to schedule and input as to tastes. Knew the people and histories of each spot and could share anecdotes on everything. More than anything he blends into a group like he has known everyone for years and becomes just an additive member of your group for the afternoon. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to spend a great afternoon touring some of STL's food and beverage highlights. Come hungry and leave happy.

5.00We were in stl to visit my brother and sister in law and I love doing tours anywhere new we go. When I went looking for tours this tour really stood out to me. And for good reason, it was a great tour, it's was private which I say is one of the best ways to do a tour in a new city. I recommend this tour whole heartily. We had Soo much fun. Wayne custome built aspects of our tour to accommodate a conflict of scheduling and still made this tour awesome. A must do tour for sure
Best tour in town!
