I have seen photos of the arch before, but it is amazing to see in person, I would recommend to anyone this is a must see American Symbol. While visiting with my family of 4 (wife and 2 girls) we took the tram ride to the top of the Arch, it was an experience I am glad we did, but there is no need to ever do it again, My wife had a hard time with the tram cars they are very small only 5 people to tram and we only had 4 in ours) and she had a hard time at the top, as it is a small observation space and a lot of people are up there. We also took the ferry ride along the Mississippi which was a nice ride, I would probably do that again. The museum at the base of the arch is free, though you must go through security there is a lot of information and interactive displays that both my wife and kids enjoyed, though we needed more time. We are all looking forward to coming back in the future.
