Discover the city’s oldest neighborhoods in this narrated bus tour of the east bank of the Mississippi River.  The town of St. Anthony began on the east side of St. Anthony Falls in 1849, several years before its upstart neighbor Minneapolis across the river. A guide will tell the stories of the people who lived and worked on the east side while visiting the location of historic flour mills, churches, red light districts, Victorian residences, pubs, immigrant enclaves, commercial centers, breweries, and more. The tour includes stops at significant historic places and two watering holes in historic buildings. Ages 21 and up only. Drink purchases are not included in the tour price. Drink specials will be made available at participating locations.
 
The tour includes three blocks of moderately-pace walking on uneven surfaces.   If someone in your party uses a cane, wheelchair, walker, or has otherwise limited mobility, please call at least two weeks in advance of your tour so we can do our best to accommodate their needs. Tours are held rain or shine. Please dress accordingly.

Future dates: June 23rd, July 7th & 23rd
