Review by Lee Ann P, May 2012

Doing what: San Antonio Grand Sightseeing Tour

It was a great deal for the money. We were able to see highlights of the city without renting a car, etc. our tour guide was knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. Loved the river cruise and the mission tours and sunken gardens.

Doing what: Alamo Hop-on Hop-off Trolley Tour

We have taken several hop-on hop-off trolley tours in the past and this was by far the worst. The trolley only came by every 45 minutes, which wasted a lot of time, and one time did not come at all. It turned out that one of the two trolleys in service had broken down and we were left to walk home. The next day the single trolley ran a 1 hour timetable, resulting in even longer waits. I would not recommend this trolley.

Tour was excellent and worth the price. Tour guide was very informative and knowledgable. It latest entire day but you definitely get our money's worth by visiting 8 different sites. Fantastic tour for those first timers visiting San Antonio.

This tour was excellent, and the boat cruise was the highlight. The Japanese Gardens were beautiful and the old Spanish missions were very interesting. The tour included some opportunities for shopping, meals and washroom breaks.

I am looking forward to sightseeing with Viator in other locations.

Doing what: Alamo Hop-on Hop-off Trolley Tour

We were disappointed with this trip. Some of the stop off points were closed so we couldn't visit and the buses were not as frequent as we would have liked.

Fair at Best.
Did not see governor house and alternative to boat tour was quite boring. You can do all this on your own except the 2 missions. A hop on and hop off would be much better than this long tour - with too long stops at nointersting places and short stops for the most interesting. No Alamo Tour it is done on your own.

Amazing tour with a wonderful, professional, personable, and knowledgeable guide! Yes, many of the sites viewed are free (i.e. tea gardens, market square, and Alamo) but others like the Buckhoorn Saloon museum, the boat ride, and the mission visits do cost money, so the trip is worth it. I liked the air conditioned bus--it was nice in the 95 degree heat. Also, the guide answered all questions. It was awesome and I took great pics of everything! Lunch was on your own, but you were by the Alamo and local mall, so plenty of options. A great day, and the tour was totally worth every penny. I went on my own, and it was safe and enjoyable. If you visit San Antonio, this is a MUST-DO! You will not be sorry. I loved every moment of it. My fave was going to Market Square...lots of shops and cheap eats! Once I learned where stuff was...I went back later on my own to spend more time there! This is great for the beginning of a trip so you can suss out the best things to do!

I went on this tour with my parents. They had lived in San Antonio 44 years ago and things have changed a bit since then. It was nice to have someone drive who knew the city and we didn't have to find our way around. The driver was personable and knowledgeable. We had a good time.l

Doing what: San Antonio Highlights Tour

Informative tour. The tour guide seemed knowledgeable about the missions. The day before we did the Hill country tour, with a different tour guide, both were very informative, most especially at San Antonio's festival time downtown.

Review by Mary Jane D, USA, June 2010

Doing what: San Antonio Highlights Tour

The first hour and a half was on our own at the Alamo prior to meeting the guide. The missions were free and the market as well. We could have done them as well on our own. We thought this would be more an overview of the San Antonio area. Not worth the money paid for 1 12 hour bus ride. We left the tour at the market.
