Private Drunk History Tour

Overview

There are a multitude of walking and ghost tours to choose from in San Antonio. Most of which are led by costumed guides, reciting scripts while herding 30 people like so many cattle through ubiquitous franchises.

I offer an alternative. A boutique, historical bar tour.

My name is Emzy. I've been sharing my hometown with guests for over twenty years and I invite you to join me for an evening of cocktails and conversation all things history in two of the most storied bars in Texas.

After a few minutes in Alamo Plaza we will belly up to the same bar where Teddy Roosevelt recruited many of the famed Rough Riders in 1898, drinks in hand we then explore the oldest hotel in the Texas followed with a second round at another nearby historic bar chosen on your taste.

Warm welcomes, prompt service, heavy pours, exclusive access, unparalleled research and personalized service await you on the ultimate way to truly discover San Antonio: past and present.

Honestly this was probably the coolest experience that we’ve ever had as far as being on a tour in a new city!! We had no idea what we are getting ourselves into but it was so awesome, our tour guide Emzy was such a cool and fun guy to be around he had all the most interesting facts about San Antonio and we bar hopped around the city getting to know one another and had such a blast the entire night!! This is great for couples who love history, and just want to have an awesome time checking out bars they normally would not have if it wasn’t for this type of tour!! I would recommend taking us tour 100% even if we went back to San Antonio we would take this tour again LOL such a great night to remember!!!

Guide was very articulate and witty. The details helped us to acquaint the area with what we would have surely missed or the information would have lacked. Nice to talk with someone well versed in the area and its history.
