We really enjoyed the West Walking Tour - so much that we plan to book the East Walking Tour next season. Our guide, Rick, provided us with a great narrative of the history of Downtown St. Louis while also encouraging questions and additional commentary. We appreciated his group discussion approach, making the experience less of a lecture and more of a conversation. Thank you for a great experience!
