  • “Amazing tour! Starts right on time and ends with a ticket to visit de Arch! I highly recommend it!!”

    Tania Ayala · Jul 2026 · via See Sight Tours

  • “Since it was my husband and my 40th wedding anniversary we were happy that our guide hit the ball out of the park. Our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. Since we are not from St. Louis he provided us with great tour. I would recommend him for anyone who is looking for a guide. The riverboat cruise was also amazing and though we decided to not go up the arch (fear of heights) we did spend time in the museum. Thank you for a delightful anniversary day...Jim and Debbie”
