If you are a lover of beer and what goes into it, you should check out the Budweiser Tour in St. Louis. They offer an all-inclusive tour of their massive brewery and even give you complementary samples at the end of the tour. After you’re done exploring, there’s a nice bar area where you can settle down and relax with a cold one.
Tower Grove Farmers’ Market
Farmers’ Markets are one of the greatest parts of summer. If you’re looking to buy some local produce, check out local artists, and spend time in a beautiful park – look no further than the Tower Grove Farmers’ Market this summer. The market operates from 7:30 AM until 12:30 PM. If you want to linger around after the market closes, there’s often events happening elsewhere in the park like live music and art displays.

The St. Louis Science Center is a favorite amongst locals and out-of-towners alike. They have a state-of-the-art OMNIMAX theater that always has a fascinating documentary running – the “Night Sky” film being a favorite for visitors. Not to mention, the St Louis Science Center is free! As a nonprofit organization, it relies on the help of volunteers and donors. The St. Louis Science Center is a great activity for the whole family this summer!
St. Louis Aquarium
While the St. Louis Aquarium is relatively new to St. Louis, it certainly appreciates its history. The St. Louis Aquarium takes you on an immersive ride throughout our globe’s waters. Starting with a prominent local river, the Mississippi, all the way down into the depths of our oceans. You don’t want to miss out on this experience this summer. It’s also settled in Union Station which houses plenty of attractions (like a giant Ferris wheel) and multiple dining establishments, so you can make it a full-day adventure!
Forest Park
If you’re looking to spend some time outdoors this summer, you should definitely head over to St. Louis’s Forest Park. You could consider this St. Louis’s version of Central Park.
