Expecatations were high based on reviews but the tour was better than anticipated. . Gary brought history alive through great story telling which all comes together as the tour progresses. San Antonio has far more history than you hear on the other tours in town. The Alamo is explained in great detail as well as cause and effect of the... More

This was soooo beautiful! It was Christmas time and the lights on the walk were awesome! You can take a boat ride down the middle of them all and it is well worth it. Several places to stop and enjoy some food or drink.

I recently took the history tour; which after visiting San Antonio regularly for the last 25 years was the first time I truly understood the rich heritage. He made history come alive with his dramatic narrative, coupled with seeing the sites. Although Gary has obviously given these tours hundreds of times, he spoke with freshness and enthusiasm! It was bittersweet,... More

My wife and I met Gary on the first morning of our two-day stay in S.A., for the history tour. Gary did an excellent job of bringing both the big picture and some of the little details to life. His presentation of the Alamo battle, while sitting in the middle of the battle site, was especially impressive. There was just... More

Therefore I was intrigued when I learned of the San Antonio Walks, King William’s tour. I hesitate to recommend something if I haven’t tried it myself, so I took... More

I saw this tour recommended on the Westin Web site. As stated, it is one of the best tours I have done. The History tour gives you not only the Alamo stories, but why the city and culture developed the way it did. There were several stopping and sitting spots along the way (very shaded). Gary, my guide, truly shows... More

San Antonio is one of those places where if you want to do something different every day, you can. Between the River Walk, the Mi Tiera 24 hour bakery and resturant, the Mexican shopping area (the largest Mexican shopping area outside of Mexico!), the 2 hour drive to the Border (make sure you have a change for the Border crossing,...

I grew up in Texas but have lived in N Tahoe California for the last 14 yrs...I have always loved history, so on a trip back to see family I decided to spend a couple of days looking around San Antonio. Saw a good review on this so decided to give it a try. I'm so glad i did..I learned... More

This tour is short on walking (about a mile) and long on historical details. Gary was extremely knowledgeable about San Antonio history and was able to dispell myths and expand on commonly held beliefs, such as why the Alamo is so named, why Santa Ana was so set on taking no prisoners, and why Germans immigrants were at one time...
