Historische Höhlentour durch St. Paul
Beschreibung
Sehen Sie sich auf dieser historischen Tour die einzige erhaltene restaurierte Stätte aus der Gangster-Ära an, die Sie durch ausgedehnte Höhlen führt, die im 18. Jahrhundert bei längst aufgegebenen Bergbauunternehmen in den Hang gehauen wurden. Später diente es als Pilzfarm und wurde während der Prohibitionszeit der 1930er Jahre zu einem Restaurant, einem Casino und einem Gangster-Hotspot ausgebaut. Zeitungen berichteten über einen ungelösten Bandenmord im Casino. Reiseleiter weisen auf die Einschusslöcher hin. Einige glauben, dass die Höhlen von ermordeten Gangstern heimgesucht werden, deren Leichen nie gefunden wurden. Die ursprüngliche Bar aus den 30er Jahren wurde vollständig restauriert – mit einer Länge von 60 Fuß war sie damals ein Rekord. Obwohl diese Tour für alle Altersgruppen geeignet ist, empfehlen wir aufgrund der kürzeren Aufmerksamkeitsspanne und der Unruhe Personen ab 5 Jahren.

The guide Ryan was amazing! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and very, very, funny. He made the whole experience just fantastic. This is a tour you shouldn't miss!
Easy, fun your for family or friends! Mary made the difference; she was funny, clever and full of information!
Great experience was very interesting. Can be little chilly in caves so bring a light jacket, but overall was great
I can't believe I haven't done this sooner. I'm a local and have been wanting to check out the Wabasha Street Caves for a decade now. We interested our out of state company in going. This was a PERFECT place to go on a hot summer day. It's cooler in the caves, but not cold. It felt good during 90 degree heat waves. So first let me say Lois was an AMAZING tour guide. Give her a raise! Be ready for a cash tip at the end for her, because she is worth it. The website says the tour is about 45 minutes to an hour long. I would say this is pretty accurate. I was a little concerned, because I have back pain and can't stand that long. Good news is you only stand for about half that time. You are ushered through the different rooms where in several rooms, the banquet rooms, you sit for a while and listen to a great story by the guide. Then you are ushered into the unfinished portions. The outside of the caves are pretty bare bones and could use some repairs, but don't let that sway you from it's rich history inside. I recommend this to anyone who is interested even slightly in history or is curious what hides in the bluffs along the Mississippi River. I will be bringing ALL of my guests here in the future. Well worth it!
Excellent experience! Even having lived in the area for 10+ years, it was a super interesting, worthwhile experience! Your guide Mary was phenomenal!
Tour guide was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun!! The tour was well worth the time and money.
I have been on many cave tours in my life and this was more of a restaurant tour that happened to be in a cave. I was excited to take my son on an actual cave tour he was so board and disappointed because he is 7 and wanted to walk around a cave. You are only in the natural caves for 5 minutess the rest is no longer even cave looking because it’s been made into an event space. The tour guide did a great job and I leaned some interesting stuff but this was not a real cave tour.
Lots of fun, tour guy was very knowledgeable and funny. We had a good time. Even learned something while we were there.
It was a lovely was to kill an hour on a hot afternoon in St. Paul. We learned some interesting things, saw some interesting things and it was a little less than an hour so it was just right!
Awesome tour. Tour guide was very animated and funny. Made the experience 10/10
