The guide will meet you at the entrance to the Emily Morgan Hotel to start your tour. Known for its Gothic Revival architecture, the Emily Morgan Hotel is a historic gem located near The Alamo. Often considered one of the most haunted hotels in America, it offers a blend of luxury and intrigue. Its prime location makes it an ideal meeting spot for exploring San Antonio’s rich history.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, The Alamo is a symbol of Texas independence. This historic mission and battleground tell the story of the 1836 siege, where a small group of Texans valiantly fought against a much larger Mexican army. Visitors can explore its museum, lush gardens, and the iconic chapel.
The River Walk is a vibrant network of walkways along the San Antonio River, offering restaurants, shops, and entertainment. Lined with colorful umbrellas and lush greenery, it’s perfect for leisurely strolls, boat rides, or dining by the water.
Adjacent to The Alamo, the Menger Hotel is steeped in history and elegance. Established in 1859, it’s one of Texas's oldest continuously operating hotels and has hosted presidents, celebrities, and dignitaries. Its Victorian charm and ghost stories make it a must-see.
Standing tall in downtown San Antonio, this bold red sculpture symbolizes the unity and shared heritage between Mexico and the United States. A striking landmark, it’s a popular spot for photos and a reminder of the city's cultural ties.
A defining feature of the San Antonio skyline, the Tower of the Americas rises 750 feet and offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and beyond. Originally built for the 1968 World’s Fair, it remains a symbol of innovation and culture. Visitors can ascend to the observation deck, where high-powered telescopes and informative displays provide insight into the city’s landmarks and history. The tower also features a thrilling 4D theater ride, offering a dynamic and immersive journey through Texas landscapes and attractions. With its iconic presence and interactive experiences, the Tower of the Americas is a must-visit destination for all ages.
This vibrant neighborhood, once one of San Antonio’s first settlements, is now a hub for arts and culture. La Villita features galleries, boutiques, and artisan shops in a charming village-like setting, perfect for discovering local craftsmanship and souvenirs.
One of the oldest cathedrals in the U.S., the San Fernando Cathedral becomes a canvas for an awe-inspiring light show called San Antonio|The Saga. This 24-minute projection tells the story of the city’s history with stunning visuals and music, creating a magical nighttime experience. (Please note: the light show does not operate on Mondays).
Dylan was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable about the history and culture of San Antonio. He was also a great resource for must sees and restaurants. The laser light show at Cathedral San Fernando was amazing!
A wonderful way to see the city and learn a little bit about its history. You hit all of the main spots. Warren was really knowledgeable and shared interesting stories as we walked. I highly recommend wearing sneakers as it is a lot of walking and some stairs.
First of all, Renee was very accommodating and great with communication to be flexible with the tour according to what I wanted, since it was a small group. He kept the pace according to what was reasonable. Answering all my questions to the best of his ability, while keep me entertained. I highly recommend this tour to help with getting to know San Antonio and be able to see all the lights (since it is a night tour).
Sasha was terrific and very knowledgeable about the history of San Antonio. Sunset from the Tower of the Americas was stunning . We absolutely recommend!
This was our first time in San Antonio and truly enjoyed this walking tour through downtown learning about the history and culture of the city from the architecture, battle of the Alamo, energy of the Riverwalk and ending with a great light art show on the cathedral. Our tour guide Renee was knowledgeable and personalized our experience.
Wow, Sasha was awesome. The tour ended up being just me and my wife so it was essentially a private tour. Sasha was so knowledgeable and full of history. It was our first time being in Texas and we learned a lot about San Antonio. She was very accommodating - definitely recommend Sasha as your guide!
Our tour guide Sasha was great. She accommodates our plans and made the tour work for us. Highly recommended!
I would give this tour a 10 star review! Sasha was phenomenal. She knew the history of San Antonio so well! She had lovely stories and took such good care of us. We did the tour on Halloween and it was so beautiful. Definitely sign up for this tour! The Riverwalk at night is magical!
Disappointed. We had hoped for a walking tour to get a better sense of the city, but an hour before the tour we were told they were changing it to a minivan tour. The tour did not include the light show at the cathedral as advertised. The description of the tour is misleading because it also did not include entrance into the Alamo. The Tower tour was very interesting. And we enjoyed the river boat cruise. Our tour guide was very friendly, but we did not feel that we got our money’s worth on this tour.
Sasha was an amazing tour guide learn a lot of the history of San Antonio. Very informative knowledgeable. Great experience.
I had a great time learning about the San Antonio area and the history of the Alamo, the Tower of Americas and the River Walk. Had a nice walk along the river with a nice breeze. My tour guide Elisa was fantastic.
My tour guide was great. I was the only person signed up. It was cool to have a private tour of the area. There were so many beautiful sights. The tower of America was fantastic. I enjoyed all the beautiful views. Thank you for a wonderful evening last night Rene!
This was an amazing tour, I thoroughly enjoyed the different locations and our guide, David, took the time to explain each place. I would highly recommend this tour if you are visiting San Antonio.
Our guide was wonderful! Super informative, fun, and did a great job keeping up with antics. It was a very memorable experience.
The tour guide was very knowledgeable. This tour showed us some history of San Antonio we had never learned before.
Well, it all started when we got a call 20 minutes before the tour telling us that the Tower of the Americas was closed and that they would offer us a boat ride on the Riverwalk and give us our passes to the Tower of America that we could do on our own, or we could cancel. Since we were on our way to the pick up point, we decided to drive on. . The tour guide did not meet us at the location, and we had to call her to remind her where we were supposed to meet. Well, she knew a good bit about the Alamo, however it seemed like we were meandering around the Riverwalk rather than seeing anything in particular. She could not find the lock bridge. She just pointed in the direction of La Villita and we decided to part ways as we entered the boat. It was just disappointing.
A great walking tour. It had rest stops and the guide (Rene) was very conscious of staying hydrated. There’s a lot of history and stories on this tour and going at night was really cool.
It is a great walk to explore different areas of downtown San Antonino. Seeing the Lights show and walking the river walk was amazing!
Scott was great the tour was fantastic we had a great time and learn allot. No waiting no long lines. Scott shared info and made our experience enjoyable.
