A friend of mine had actually booked this mini vacation to San Antonio, to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in our city, we are from Texas also but we played tourist in a new city. We arrived early for the hop on, hop off bus tour, had great help getting our tickets (already pre-purchased) and away we went, looking for the perfect bus...the perfect bus for us...top deck, front row, feet up, sun shining, phones off and pure relaxation. Our plan....take the full tour, then decide..where do we want to get off first. Our bus ride starts and we have this friendly voice coming thru the speakers, talking to us as if we are face to face in a conversation, this voice that is very knowledgeable of the landmarks, the stops, the history......this friendly voice telling stories about a location how he may have spent time there or took his daughter there and what they did to enjoy themselves or just the history about the location, or the history of a Texas landmark that fed into the location of the stop. The knowledge that this friendly voice had of every stop was very impressive. Once we had completed the first tour of the Hop On Hop Off and got back to the original starting point, we requested the time of the same exact bus with the same exact friendly voice once it got ready to leave again...Believe me folks when I say that our driver was the best, because he truly was, he wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stops and told us that was all that mattered, that WE the tourist enjoyed ourselves. if you decide to take this tour...look for the guy with the friendly voice and smile who absolutely loves his job, ride his bus and learn the history or hear the stories......he is absolutely amazing. Look for JOSH on this tour....
