SIX EVENINGS TO REMEMBER
A journey with room
for the two of you.
Trade your everyday routine for scenic miles, charming towns, and time together. The Katy for Two is a self-guided cycling getaway combining the adventure of the Katy Trail with premium lodging and personalized service.
Settle into historic St. Charles the night before departure. The following morning, our shuttle takes you to Clinton to begin six days of riding back to St. Charles, with overnight stops in Sedalia, Boonville, Jefferson City, Hermann, and Augusta or Washington.
Ride beneath tree canopies, alongside Missouri River bluffs, and through the heart of wine country. Pause for lunch, explore local shops, and take in the views together. Each evening, unwind in thoughtfully selected premium accommodations.
Your six included nights begin in St. Charles the night before departure, followed by one night in each trail town. Add a second night in Hermann or a St. Charles stay after you return, each priced separately. Your final itinerary and lodging will be personally arranged and confirmed with you.
Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, planning a honeymoon, or simply making time for each other, The Katy for Two is an invitation to enjoy the journey together.
