Was picked up directly from our hotel so that was great! Wayne was super nice and accommodating. He took us all around St Louis to see different things and taste a few select places. He was very knowledgeable about the city and the best part was he took our pics at each location and sent them to us after! Oh...The Basicillica is a MUST!!!!

A MUST DO EXPERIENCE

You must do this experience like we did, our first day in STL. This tour with the guide, Wayne will not disappoint. He was flexible with our start time, met all our desires of places to see and even had more recommendations not on our list. He met all of our expectations of being professional, engaging and entertaining with detailed knowledge and able to answer all our questions- all by driving us efficiently and safe in a comfortable, cool vehicle. We ended tour with a great admiration of STL.

Thanks so much for hanging with us! We hope to host you again someday!

Loved this tour

We had a great tour with Wayne. He brought a lot of enthusiasm and personality as well as knowledge of St. Louis history, food scene, neighborhoods and architecture. We loved the restaurant and food choices, especially the toasted ravioli at Guido’s and the ribs at Adam’s Smokehouse. Also, Wayne found great alternatives for the vegetarian in our group, especially the jackfruit barbecue sandwich at Adam’s. Getting time at the Gateway Arch Was great too. We are so happy we met Wayne. Next time we visit St. Louis, we’ll take his tour of the Hill (Little Italy).

It’s a date! Thanks so much for hanging with me!
