Excellent way to explore San Antonio - We met Nancy in San Antonio for our tour and it was an excellent experience that gave us a lot of knowledge as well as confidence to further explore the Riverwalk and wider San Antonio area. Nancy had great knowledge of the history and sights of San Antonio. She communicated well and was fun to spend the tour with. We definitely recommend this tour for a fun way to get to explore San Antonio and see some sights that you would not find on your own. Thanks again Nancy

Great tour - Sasha was very knowledgable and interesting to listen to. This tour included so much history and information. Sasha took our picture at various locations and sent us information about other activities in San Antonio that we talked about. With a small group, she was able to dial into our interests and suggest activities based on that. Highly recommend!

Seascape Van Tour in San Antonia - From the get go I felt that we were going to have a great experience. There was a mix up but Dylan from Seascape took care of us & it was better than what we expected. The tour added a mission that helped explain the Alamo. Dylan was knowledgeable & met every need we may have had.

Dylan was phenomenal - Our San Antonio tour guide, Dylan, was o it standing - knowledgeable about the city’s history and full of engaging stories that made each stop come alive. From the Alamo to the river walk he provided the perfect mix of history and local insight. With our small group of three Dylan went above and beyond to make our experience feel personal and tailored to us even offering extra tips and recommendations. I’d highly recommend this guide to anyone wanting to experience the true spirit of San Antonio.

Great Tour - Very informative tour. Victor was great. Boat ride on river walk was fun and didn't know that a pass to go to the Tower of the Americas was included so that was a added bonus.

Worth the walk - It's a lot of walking and stairs so probably not great for younger kids. Bring water and a snack. Overall, great way to see a number of the hot spots while taking in a history lesson.

Disappointed San Antonio Walking Tour & Riverboat Boat Cruise - We were notified through WhatsApp , which I don’t use, at 10:44 am on Saturday January 17 for a 1:00 pm walking tour & river cruise that the river had been drained for cleaning and the cruise was not available. They wanted to “upgrade” us to a driving tour, we booked a walking tour, at no additional charge. We were in transit at this point and unable to make an educated choice. I was finally contacted by phone by our local tour guide. She, Sasha, was very understanding of my concerns and did the very best she could to make our tour as enjoyable as possible for all four of us. We were offered a tour of the Japanese Tea Garden to replace the river cruise. As it happens the Tea Garden was closed for a wedding and not close enough for a “walking” tour anyway. As I said Sasha did her very best to give us what we were expecting and had paid for which we appreciated. I can’t imagine that on the morning of the 17th the City of San Antonio suddenly closed the riverwalk section of the river and drained it nor do I believe the Tea Garden was just rented that morning for a wedding. The tour company was not on top of things and scrambled at the last minute to correct their shortcomings. We were given a small refund, $61.99 against our payment of $556.00. Not what I was expecting. We have used Viator to book tours in Paris, Vancouver, Florence & Milan with great success. They and their tour company fell down on this one.
