Interesting and Comfortable
I enjoyed this experience. I live in St. Louis and was looking for something fun to do that didn't require a lot of walking. Even though I live here, I found the tour interesting and informative. It's affordable and the tour bus is comfortable.

Disappointed that more...
Disappointed that more history wasn’t covered. No reference to Lewis and Clark at all. Over all ok tour

Hit or Miss
Good route, nice vehicle, too bad the driver/guide was clueless. Incorrect facts, missed some great opportunities to provide local knowledge. Last time I did this tour the guide was much better. Take the tour, hope for a better guide…

Bad driver
We had a bad guide, blocked out his name. Spoke too close into his mike so that he wasn’t understandable, pointed at the arch as we drove away, slowed down in an intersection to point out Busch Stadium 2 blocks away, pointed at AB brewery as we drove by on the freeway. Spent a lot of time in Forest Park, where he lives, stopped for 5 minutes at the Museum of Art. Pointed at the million dollar block as we drove by. Showed us Union Station as we drove by but didn’t mention that all it is now is an aquarium. We have been on a lot of trolley tours in big cities across the country. This was the worst, another driver may be better. We like doing these when we visit new cities to find places that interest us. After this one my wife and I looked at each other and had no clue where anything of interest was or how to get there. We got better info from our waitress at the hotel restaurant, good job Taylor!

Fun day!
It was great. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area, and took us all around the city. Really enjoyed Forest Park and the surrounding area. I would recommend!

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for St Louis.
How much does St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $30 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in St Louis usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in St Louis is not rushed.
Is St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 539 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in St Louis, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour?
+
Around 189 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in St Louis can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in St Louis and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does St. Louis Narrated Trolley Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central St Louis within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in St Louis?
+
St Louis leads with Gateway Arch tram rides and riverboat cruises, then brewery tours, Forest Park museums, City Museum visits and Route 66 history runs. Arch tram tickets are timed entry, so we weight tours that secure them. On Outty we rank every St Louis experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lemp Haunted Neighborhood Walking Tour, St. Louis True Crime Tour: Soulard’s Murders, Mafia & Mayhem, Private Tour of St. Louis's Iconic BBQ Joints & Breweries. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit St Louis?
+
April to June and September to October. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in St Louis?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
