Best experience; best guide! - My son and I were recently in San Antonio for our annual NBA stadium trip, and with limited time, we wanted to see and experience as much of the city as possible. Nancy picked us up right at our hotel and delivered the tour we were hoping for and then some. She took the time to get to know us and thoughtfully sprinkled in personalized experiences just for us. Nancy is incredibly knowledgeable about San Antonio’s history and the city’s efforts to preserve it, and she introduced us to local spots and experiences we never would have found on our own. This tour exceeded our expectations, and I 10/10 recommend it. And, ask Nancy about “puffy tacos”.

Great tour of the area - Our tour guide Sasha was very knowledgeable, informative, efficient and kind. The river cruise was not available for us so we toured the Pearl district and it was nice to see a whole new area.
