This was my first time here and it was quite a site to behold. The Arch is colossal and the entire area is well taken care of. Plan on doing a lot of walking. Fortunately, we had a hotel that was about a mile from the Arch so we decided to walk. Make sure you have sunscreen with you. The Arch Cafe is really pricy. We had 2 drinks, a hamburger and a chicken sandwich for $30. We then rode up the Arch in these little 5 man pods, and believe me, they are small and tight fitting. They are only 4 feet tall but the trip up is only about 5 minutes. The trip down is even faster. I am around 320 lbs. and was worried I wouldn't fit, but I did with no problem.
