It was a wonderful day! Nancy was very knowledgable and really made sure we were cared for. Cold water and snacks were a plus! She kept us on schedule and went out of her way to educate us on all things San Antonio! Great experience!

Nancy was wonderful and a wealth of information! You could tell she was passionate about what she was sharing and did her research. She was friendly and kind and a pleasure to take the tour with.

Too much time spent at the mission and not enough time to look around the Tour of America. The tour said it was an intimate river cruise but we had to stand in line and do the normal river tour. Very disappointed with that. Our guide said the small boat tour was denied which the company should have let us know before the tour.
