Taking the ride up to the arch and just overall taking in the scenery was a fun way for me to enjoy a much needed break. The cafe is also worth going to.Full review by Bethany C

Q:
URGENT QUESTION. i am ina child care class, and we are doing a bay unit, i have recoived the baby and i am going to st louis, specifically the arch, can i bring that baby with me? and if so, am i allowed to leave the restraint im keep[ing my baby in? or do i have to bring it with me.
A:
There are some tight places if you want to go to the top of the arch. I've been to the top three times, and I don't recall seeing any babies. I suggest you call the Gateway Arch and ask them.
Q:
how do you buy tickets ahead of time?
A:
Buy on line or at the door. Definitely worth seeing.
Q:
where can I park? How early should I get there for 9:20 tickets?

Try to buy your tickets online days before. We thought we would be out of luck but found a last minute slot. If you don’t have tickets you can still get in and see the great museum but you can’t get to the top- and that’s the point. Kiener Plaza East and West are good parking spots. Not a long walk…about 1-2 blocks, cross the street, then walk down to the Arch entrance. Checkout the old courthouse on this walk and the Kiener Plaza park is a great photo spot while on your walk!

It says you there are stairs to walk up to the top- does the tram only go up so far and then you have to walk the 6 flights of …
Q:
It says you there are stairs to walk up to the top- does the tram only go up so far and then you have to walk the 6 flights of stairs the rest of the way?
A:
goes all the way to top.
Q:
Plan to visit later this year,heard there are 96 steps to climb to observation deck and worried I may not be able to manage that!
A:
You can't climb to observation deck, you have to ride up make a reservation in advance.
