Driver/guide was dry. No passion to his delivery.
It was a great tour and overview of the city. We had friends in from out of state, and they thought it was wonderful.
Good tour of things to see and do while visiting St. Louis. Tour Guide had fun insights into living in St. Louis.
The guide did a wonderful job but the trolly is in need of some repairs. It was a warm day and the AC did not work. It was blowing hot air which made it worse. A leak on the roof left visible damage that needs repaired. That is why we had to leave three stars.
Showed many sites I want to explore further. Recommend highly.
The AC did not work very well so it was uncomfortably warm and it was also very very noisy rattle that made it hard to hear and was quite aggravating after a while. We were supposed to stop at the basilica and did not. We did see the Arch but from very far away. The driver was very informative and we did enjoy our tour overall.
I recently took the St. Louis Trolley Tour, and I highly recommend it. We parked across the street from the Four Seasons Hotel and the bus picked us up right in their covered driveway. The trolley itself is fantastic. It has the charming, classic look of an old-fashioned trolley but with modern upgrades that make a big difference. It had excellent air conditioning and a high-quality sound system so you could hear the driver. The ride was smooth and comfortable, even on some of the older city streets. Our driver was outstanding. He handled the tour beautifully, especially considering the fact that I am fairly certain that we had to take a completely different route because a sinkhole had opened up downtown that day. Despite the detour, he never missed a beat. His narration was engaging, informative, and full of details about the city’s history and landmarks as we passed them by. He made the whole experience fun and enjoyable. The route took us through Forest Park, one of the highlights of the tour. We passed by the St. Louis Zoo and several other beautiful areas within the park. Our driver even stopped for about five minutes in front of the museum, where we were able to enjoy the excellent views across the park. It was a perfect little break in the tour. After leaving Forest Park, we wound our way back through the city, traveling through Midtown and seeing many of St. Louis’s other notable sights to include a beautiful church. Overall, it was a very well-run, informative, and enjoyable tour. The combination of the comfortable trolley, excellent driver, and beautiful route made it one of the best city tours we’ve taken. I would definitely do it again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting St. Louis.
A very pleasant and witty tour guide. It was a very pleasant experience, a nice way to say welcome to St. Louis.
It was very informative just had hard time understanding the guide a bit. At times I understood but other times very unclear what was said.
Our driver was amazing! He knew so much history and shared it with us. I would have liked more time to get off and see things.
