Minneapolis gets a lot of attention, but this tour gets you a proper introduction to the other half of the Twin Cities: Saint Paul. The capital city of Minnesota has a history full of intriguing stories like tales of the illegal alcohol production during Prohibition. You’ll join a guide for a walk around Saint Paul, through both quiet neighborhoods and bustling downtown as you learn about the city’s secrets; including the secret caves that are closer than you’d believe.
