Great tour to know San Antonio - Alex was a kind and knowledgeable guide. If I had visited the missions by myself, I would not have been impressed by San Antonio's visit so much.

San Antonio #1 - Very nice place to visit with family , the visit of the "missions" is a must. “Market Square” is a must visit. Mi Tierra Cafe y Panaderia for lunch supper or dinner is perfect (stop at Mariachi Bar) otherwise go for a walk along the canal.... A little touristy but still very pleasant

Missions Tour - We recently took The Missions Tour with Alex. It was very informative and gave us great insight in to the history of the missions. We appreciated all the knowledge Alex had to offer.

San Antonio Missions - The tour of the Missions was really nice and the narrative excellent. We enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it as the missions are outside of the city and spread out so this tour takes you to them and allows you to visit them.

Super Guide! - Domingo was so, so knowledgeable about the Missions and their history. There wasn’t a question he couldn’t answer! There were only 4 of us so it was like a private tour.

Cancel and Refund - I was in Cali Colombia for COP16. I mistook the San Antonio of US as San Antonio, Cali, Colombia because the information on the website is not clear that it is a tour in US. So, I booked a city tour of this tour, costing 600$. They provide the list of pick-up hotels without the information that they are in USA. I paid full tour by 17:20. Then I found out my mistake and successully cancelled by 18:20. Tripadvisor send me an email said that because I cancelled within 24 hours so NO REFUND. I found trip Advisor did not support the client properly. I wrote them an email to explain why I mistook because there are no detais telling it is in USA. So, I highly request you to consider the propriate refund.
