The St. Charles Business Alliance announced updates to the self-guided “Tortilla Tour” on the free Travel St. Charles App. To make the experience even more accessible and enjoyable, the required number of restaurant “Check Ins” needed to complete the tour and to win your exclusive bottle of hot sauce from Gindo’s has been lowered from six to three.

This adjustment makes it easier for more people to participate, encourages more visitors to explore the amazing local Mexican restaurants, and ensures everyone has a chance to earn a delicious prize from Gindo’s without needing to commit to as many stops.

To get started, users will first download the Travel St. Charles App and create an account. The Travel St. Charles App can be downloaded for Android and Apple devices on its website.

How it works

• Once downloaded, users will be able to view the “Tortilla Tour” located under the “Challenges” tab.

• To complete the tour, order from and “Check Into” three of the thirteen Mexican Restaurants.

• Once completed, participants will be able to pick up the bottle of hot sauce at the St. Charles Municipal Building (2 E. Main Street) between Monday and Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

The “Tortilla Tour” is year-round and can be completed over any duration of time.

St. Charles Business Alliance Executive Director Jenna Sawicki commented on the recent relaunch:

“With Cinco De Mayo being right around the corner, we felt this was the perfect opportunity to shine a light on this initiative that we introduced last year,” said Sawicki. “We encourage everyone to visit your current favorites and to also venture out and discover new establishments, as there are numerous wonderful Mexican eateries around town.”
