Tours in Beeville

As a San Antonio native, Shelly Reynolds has been exploring the city all her life. Luckily, she doesn't miss out on a global perspective: While sharing her lifetime of knowledge through Historic Texas Tours, she and her staff get to meet and befriend travelers from all over the world. The company's tours focus as much on forming new friendships as discovering the local sights as they expose visitors and locals alike to area wineries, restaurants, and landmarks at the direction of friendly guides. Food tours unearth local eateries with a tour itinerary that varies often to reward visitors who go on repeat trips, and journeys into the Texas Hill Country offer complex tastes of locally made wines. Mission Trail tours explore edifices that date back to the 1700s, including the oldest unrestored stone church in the United States and a used-horse dealership.

An expert guide will recreate the insightful history and detailed accounts of the "Battle of the Alamo," one of the city's and the nation’s most significant historical events. The tour meets directly across from the entrance of the Alamo—just look for the red "Walks" shirt and go introduce yourself to the history-buff tour guide. Distinguish fact from fiction as your engaging tour guide tells the history and lore surrounding the city and its rich cultural heritage. Other attractions covered in the tour include the Main Plaza, the art community of La Villita, the river, and history surrounding the Cowtown Saloon days. The tour travels just under one mile, so you can enjoy a brisk workout in the San Antonio binary sunshine while working up an optional sweat. As an added bonus, San Antonio Walks will give Groupon buyers a complimentary gold card from Destination Dining to present at participating local eateries and receive a surprise or welcome gift from the chef.

When horror movies like the Paranormal Activity franchise need a supernatural adviser and The Atlantic Paranormal Society needs a recruiter, they turn to Robert. A former cast member on SyFy's Ghost Hunters International, he draws on his extensive paranormal know-how to lead 90-minute nighttime treks with Ghost Hunts of San Antonio Texas Tour.

Exploring the dusky streets of downtown San Antonio, the tour stops at more than 10 locations with verified ghost activity, including the Flannery House, the Crockett Hotel, and the Casino Club building, where apparitions can be spotted mulling over the same poker hand they've been holding for more than 100 years. Rob showcases modern ghost-hunting equipment while helping guests detect spirits by seeking out cold spots and snapping photographs. When he's not commanding the hunt, he regales visitors with factual accounts of the deaths of famous San Antonio spirits including Mae West, Davie Crockett, and Roy Rogers.

SegCity has ridden the wave of segway popularity to become one of Texas' largest distributors of segways and a leader in segway-authorized tours. With topics ranging from ghosts to breakfast, six public tours escort visitors and locals alike around San Antonio's most famed sights such as the Alamo, the Main Plaza, and The Riverwalk. The staff guides each represent slices of the city itself and share stories of their upbringings in the city on each excursion. As an authorized segway dealer, the business can also outfit riders with their own segways and requisite bassinets.

San Antonio's distinctive cityscape of modern marvels and ancient architecture unfurls before sight-seekers during City Sightseeing San Antonio's one-hour tours. Visitors clamber aboard one of the company's fleet of candy-apple-red double-decker buses and listen along with pre-recorded commentary as a savvy driver escorts the group around the city. Among many other stops, The Buckhorn Saloon and Museum awaits budding Texas Ranger historians, and the Blue Star Contemporary Art Center satisfies the tastes of those who prefer Walker's impressionist phase. Though San Fernando Cathedral and the Spanish Governor's Palace takes natives and tourists alike into the past with centuries-old stone, the fast pace of Market Square brings them to the cacophonous now with working street artists and musicians backdropped by colorful stalls filled with clothing and produce. Each wagon boasts complimentary mineral water and a recorded commentary brimming with local expertise, though, true to its double-decker roots, the bus itself sports a posh British accent.
