Glenn was a friendly and passionate tour guide. I enjoyed the tour. I especially enjoyed hearing his perspective as someone who has lived in the city for a long time.

Sharon and Warren were absolutely wonderful tour guides! I have lived in STL on and off for a few years. I was surprised at how much I learned. Even with the tour being just over 2 hours, the time flew by due to the engagement and passion Warren and Sharon had for the information they were sharing about STL. I would recommend this tour to ANY visitors or STL residents. It was a wonderful look at STL history! Thank you Sharon and Warren!
