What you'll do

Experience 300 years of Texan history on this 3.5-hour guided tour of San Antonio. Your guide will walk you through the colorful La Villita neighborhood, regaling you with fascinating tales of the city’s 300-year history.

Discover how influences from Europe and Mexico have shaped the downtown area into a diverse cultural hub. Visit San Fernando Cathedral – one of the oldest in the States – with its striking gothic and colonial architectural styles. The cathedral overlooks the Main Plaza towards the tranquil, tree-lined San Antonio River.

Head over to El Mercado, where you’ll have free time to explore locally owned stores. Treat yourself to a unique piece of artisan pottery or local wood carving. The market is bursting with cafés, bakeries and other dining options. After your tour, why not go traditional TexMex and grab a spicy beef taco for lunch?
