5/5

Whether you’re new to Minnesota or have been a lifetime resident, the secrets sitting in our capital city are sure to surprise you. Join an expert local guide as you explore the rags and riches of this incredible city — from the wealth Summit Hill neighbourhood, to the secret caves that stored illegal booze-making facilities, you’ll learn that there’s lot more to this city than meets the eye. 

Meet your guide for the Complete St. Paul Walking Tour at the front steps of the St. Paul Cathedral. From there explore the iconic neighbourhood of Summit Hill before making your way toward an amazing coffee shop for a cup of joe. 

Next, your guide will lead you toward Minnesota’s gorgeous state capital. Learn about the fire that burned a previous capital down, and what makes our current seat of government so remarkable. 

Then, head into the heart of downtown passing iconic sites such as the 1st National Bank building, the Landmark Center, and the St. Paul Hotel. 

Explore more of downtown as you learn about the history of this incredible place, then wrap up with a beer. 

By the end of this tour, you’ll have a newfound appreciation for the city of St. Paul and Minnesota as a whole.

Yes — St. Paul is known as the city of seven hills, so there will be some hills to climb, but stairs can be avoided at your request.
