28 days in Saint Louis Itinerary

Test the local claim that Saint Louis is second only to Washington, D.C.

Venture out of the city with trips to Elephant Rocks State Park (in Belleview), Hermann (Stone Hill Winery & Adam Puchta Winery) and Hannibal (Mark Twain Cave and Cameron Cave, Tom Sawyer' Statue, &more). There's much more to do: take in nature's colorful creations at Missouri Botanical Garden, relax in the rural setting at Grant’s Farm, get to know the resident critters at Saint Louis Zoo, and take in panoramic vistas at The Gateway Arch.

For where to stay, maps, ratings, and other tourist information, refer to the Saint Louis day trip planning website.

In August, daily temperatures in Saint Louis can reach 87°F, while at night they dip to 66°F. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 19th (Thu) to allow time to travel back home.
