    Roger was 10/10. Tour was great and he showed me all over the city. Was able to see the arch, union station, forest park, cardinals stadium and tried bbq from salt and smoke. Roger is very knowledgeable of the city and provided a lot of great knowledge about the city. Highly recommend this tour with Roger.

    Our guide,Mark, picked us up at our hotel as scheduled and began our tour of downtown St. Louis. He showed us all the sites and had an interesting and informative comments about the city and its history. He escorted us to the entrances of the cruise and arch and made sure we arrived on time He was waiting at the exit of each of these these two activities and walked us back to his car. Top notch all the way.

    Our guide was knowledgeable and easy to understand. My husband wears hearing aides and heavy accents are hard for him. It was comprehensive and easy to follow! Wear comfy shoes!
