Check out this perfect extended weekend in St. Louis! This 3 day itinerary hits all the highlights, but it isn't rushed! You'll take in views from the top of the Arch, sip on beer at the Anheuser-Busch brewery, and more! Pick and choose what you're most interested and get ready for a great visit to the "Gateway to the West." This trip was planned for a 3-day holiday weekend but could be adapted for any 3 day travel window. Additionally, this trip is a great example of what you could expect if you book my "Standard Itinerary" travel services. 🧳Trip highlights Day 1 - Fly in Day 2 - Forest Park & Gateway Arch Day 3 - City Museum & Anheuser-Busch Day 4 - Jewel Box Custard & Fly out Why this guide? 🎟️ Advance ticket purchase recommendations.
