Imagine the thrill of piecing together a puzzle while surrounded by the beauty of the River Walk. As you follow the storyline, you’ll uncover hidden gems and iconic sites, all while enjoying the refreshing morning breeze. The game is designed to be flexible, allowing you to take as many or as few hints as you need, making it perfect for both seasoned escape room enthusiasts and newcomers alike. One recent participant raved about the experience, saying:

“Amazing Escape Room Experience! This game was amazing to explore downtown with! It guides you through the city as you solve a mystery using multiple places, signs, and shops to help you solve the case!”

With the sun shining and the city as your game board, this is an adventure you won’t want to miss.

Begin your journey with a visit to the Alamo, where you’ll learn about the pivotal events that shaped Texas history. Stroll through the lush gardens and take in the serene beauty of the historic grounds. The tour also includes a narrated drive through the city, offering stunning views of the skyline and a chance to explore the beautiful Spanish colonial missions. One of the highlights of the tour is the River Walk boat cruise, where you can relax and enjoy the sights from the water. A recent review captures the essence of this experience:

“Fantastic Day out - What a fantastic day out! We had an amazing guide, Mike, who was very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. Our favourite part was the Riverwalk Boat and if you get Dan as your captain you are in for a great ride!”
