St Louis Car Hire

Founded in 1763, St Louis soon came to be known as the “gateway to the west” as it was the last major city pioneers stopped at before heading off to settle on the Pacific coast. Since then, St Louis has grown into a fun and friendly city, and is regarded as both a great place to live as well as visit.

Whether you are following in the steps of pilgrims heading for the west, or simply just exploring the US Midwest, St Louis is an excellent city to base yourself in while touring with your car hire.

Drive a Car Hire in St Louis

The icon and most famous site of the city is without a doubt the Gateway Arch, which is located on the riverfront by the city centre. Visitors can actually ride a lift to the top of the arch, where you will get a spectacular view of the St Louis from 192 metres above the ground below, a great way to get your bearings and become familiar with the city.

Jump in your St Louis Car Hire and drive west of here, where a few blocks away you can visit some more of the great attractions St Louis has to offer. The impressive Cathedral Basilica of St Louis is a must, and is actually has an interior decorated with the largest mosaic collection in the world. Also near here, is St Louis Zoo, a leader in animal management and conservation.

In the north of the city centre, is the highly regarded City Museum, a unique interactive museum with fun as a focus. A combination of museum, gallery and playground, its guaranteed fun for the whole family. For more interactive family fun, drive your hire car a short distance west and visit The Magic House, which is another hands on museum, however aimed at children, so perfect for those travelling with the family!
