Well worth it! - We did this our first evening and really enjoyed it. The small group was wonderful! And so was Jason our tour guide. He was very informative and personable. Loved seeing the city at night. We will go back to the Alamo today to be able to go inside. The river cruise at night is a must! The lights were amazing! Can’t imagine how it would look at Christmas time!

A beautiful night in San Antonio - Great tour, so happy that we did this on our first night. Now we know so many more places we want to see. Our guide, Renee (sp?) was very knowledgeable and took us to some unexpected neighborhoods to really get a feel for San Antonio. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Enjoyable tour - Austin made the tour relaxing and enjoyable. Four guests allowed for great informative interaction between Austin and the guests. He was enthusiastic about sharing the history of some of the San Antonio sites. We especially enjoyed being introduced to the Pearl. My husband and I plan to return to the Saturday Market that Austin told us about. He took us on a tour of the Emma Hotel, which was a real treat. Austin is a dedicated tour guide.

not so good - the sites were beautiful to see. The organization of the tour was very poor. The boat tour was beautiful but finding the boat was not easy. The driver had problems with finding the hotel that they were supposed to meet us at 45 minutes late.

Small group night tour review - Overall the boat cruise and getting to see the sights from the top of the tower of the Americas was great, however, there was a significant lack of coordination with the tour guide. It started out pretty rocky when it took much longer to pick up the group than expected so we began about 45 min late. We weren’t given the tour guides information prior to getting picked up so there was no way to get specifics until we got there. We weren’t able to view the Alamo due to a private event being held there so completely skipped this part before going to the tower of the Americas. We had to wait on an extremely long line to get upstairs and ultimately ended up leaving because otherwise we would miss our 9pm boat tour. We then went to the boat tour and following that went back to the tower of the Americas. What should have been an approximately 3 hour excursion turned into 4.5 hours.

I do not recommend this tour - Booked with Viator it was sub contracted with Tripshepherd we were emailed itinerary which changed because of final 4 and tower renovations we understood but no price reduction we were told to be in lobby at 6:45 they arrived at 7:10 only room for 1 person they sent another driver who called would be there in a couple minutes arrived at 7:40 we went to the Pearl a free cost to them land we’re walked through a hotel restaurant area we then went to see a courthouse and church where was supposed to be a light show waited 20 minutes it wasn’t operating and was posted on their website we later went to Riverwalk where we were provided a ticket to Rio River tours and waited another 15 minutes for boat to fill lastly we were taken back to Alamo which was where we were to start that was nice but only outside view at 11 pm basically a knowledgeable driver expensive uber ride we have booked with Viator before in many locations in fact Paris before the Olympics very disappointed I called to give them my feedback no follow up from management I do not recommend
