Overview

The first stop of the day is an exciting visit to a local cultural icon, the Alamo, where you will stand in the footsteps of heroes before. Get up close and personal with some of the Alamo’s largest weapons and fortifications- the 16 pounder cannon, palisades, and barracks.

Next, take in an enriched combination of San Antonio’s history and region within national parks as you experience the stories of people who came into the Spanish missions in the 1700s.

For the thrill-seekers, take an elevator ride up 190 m (623 ft) to the top of Tower of the Americas to witness the most magnificent view of the city.

Finally, take in the world-renowned 15-mile urban waterway on a relaxing, 35-minute River Walk Cruise to immersive with the city’s culture, history, and architecture.

Once your feet are back on the ground, your tour guide will return you safely to your downtown hotel, or arranged destination.
