The snow was coming down before we began our trip. Cindy our driver, and Glenda our concierge, were not only a fantastic team but made even the nervous passengers feel at ease. Glenda came around with candy for everyone and had a little trivia to pass the time for the up'ing travelers. Traffic was so backed up, because of the weather, but Cindy maneuvered around the traffic and got us to the show on time. It was wonderful to be dropped RIGHT at the door. The snow continued while we were at the show. When we came out, she was again Right at the door. How convenient! Especially with all the little "Elsa's" not completely dressed for the weather. We had to wait to start the snowy trek home. There were 3 passengers missing for quite a while, and Glenda went on a hunt for them. She and Cindy were patient and polite to the absent passengers, and Cindy attended to us waiting patiently on the coach. Cindy was an EXCELLENT driver and made everyone feel very safe. The driving conditions with crazy semi's zooming by was nerve wracking, but Cindy handled it with ease. Glenda brought the Frozen DVD to watch on the way home. It was a great distraction for anxious passengers and the tired young uns. When we arrived back, Glenda helped people clean off the 3+ inches of snow mounded on their vehicles. Cindy waited in the coach with passengers while their cars warned up. WOW....these ladies were impressive!!! If I could give 10 stars I would!!!

I want someone to wet my appetite for what St Louis has to offer. I have to say the guide did just that. He told stories, he interacted well and told corny jokes. Just plain vacation fun. Afterwards I found myself looking up the places he talked about and recommended. Totally worth it. I would go again on my next visit.

Great tour to take to learn about St Louis sites quickly I…read morerecently 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.

Pea soup and meat pie 4 nights in a row Bus lavatory not dumped at all timely.....Bus smelled like an outhouse after the fourth day Smelled even worse when the lavatory door was opened No prepared insights as to what we were going to see Passengers making many calls to Sunrise to complain Day after I got home had a letter from Sunrise offering a refund of $250 or $500 off future trip I do not plan on giving Sunrise any of my business in the future Never received the check so I went to Sunrise offices The employees there were great BUT then a Mr Brent Dalrymple came forward to ask us why we Were in the office Told him how awful this tour was And he asked us to leave Said we were loitering We were waiting for our checks as a month had already passed In my opinion terrible treatment to 3 of us dissatisfied customers who collectively spent around $15.000 on this awful tour Sunrise Tours must have gotten many complaints because that letter arrived immediately I've heard that Sunrise used to be one of the best But certainly not the Crème de la Crème

*One-Hour Sightseeing Cruise Review* If you're visiting the Gateway Arch, adding on the Riverboat…read moreTour should be on your to-do list. Located just a few minutes walk away from the Gateway Arch National Park, the tour takes you on a leisurely ride up and down the Mississippi River in a refitted historic paddleboat. Seating is available inside in the AC or outdoors on two decks (upper and lower). In this indoor area are tables to sit at and concessions for sale. If sitting outside, there are plastic lawn chairs you can move around to get your preferred view. The tour could be a little difficult to hear at times (even though i was trying to sit close to a speaker) but what I did hear provided interesting details about the St Louis riverfront downtown area that you won't learn during a visit to the Arch. Of course you'll also receive a gorgeous view of the arch from the river as you pass by it. If you have the time and you're there to do the whole Gateway Arch experience this is a can't miss!

I can honestly say, it was the best trip I've ever been on. I was super nervous because this was the first time I would be traveling outside the country, but Shelly most definitely put my anxiety to rest. In preparation, she presented my husband and I with a handful of great options based on our price-point. She was extremely thorough and made sure we were notified immediately if any travel details had been updated/confirmed (flight changes, resort confirmations, etc.). Additionally, I know plenty of family and friends that have used Classic Travel and Cruises in the past and have loved their experiences as well. I 100% recommend choosing them for your next trip - they have plenty of options to choose from in whatever price point you're looking for.

There was a lot of information about St. Louis history and culture, not just the usual but also the unusual, which was fun. I would have liked a little more detail about the specific architects and buildings themselves, but there was a lot to get in. The tour lasted exactly 2.5 hours and that was enough. We went to the Hotel St. Louis for lunch afterward so we could spend time in that fantastic art deco space. The restaurant is open breakfast through evening, so it would be a good spot to take a break whenever you might be downtown. The sheer number of truly beautiful historic buildings in downtown St. Louis is so impressive. Yes, some are neglected, but their elegance and scale are stunning. It was interesting to see up close the neighborhood and streets that I read about in the news. I recommend this tour for anyone, but in particular it would be great for locals to take it and see our city for the jewel it is. The walk was easy, the guide (Glenn) was fun and informative, and I was surprised at how spotless downtown is.

A fantastic way to spend a Saturday morning!
