Hi! I am really excited that you are considering taking a tour with me! Visiting a different city for even a short period of time can be a life-changing experience. I know it has been for me. I love to travel! But, I like to stay home even more. Lol St. Louis has been a wonderful place to raise my family. I was born and raised in St. Louis and I've never known a world without the Arch! Whether guiding a group through Forest Park or driving the streets of Downtown St. Louis, I am equally in my element. While The Gateway Arch is not to be overlooked, you can customize your tour for an even more rewarding experience. Whatever your choice, my plan is to deliver you a comfortable, fun, and memorable adventure! I hope to see you soon!

Overview of your St Louis tour

The original footprint of Colonial St. Louis dating to 1764 can be imagined as we walk the Gateway Arch National Park grounds. St. Louis turned 260 years old in 2024! This 2 hour walk will focus on the Gateway Arch National Park and its historical connection to St. Louis. Join me and let me share with you the experiences I have had both as a St. Louisan and in my days as a National Park Service Park Ranger. Our walk will include a four square block area and I will point out the buildings of downtown that are also significant and why. After our walk, you'll want to ride to the Top of the Arch and see it all again from above!
