Loved Japanese gardens and they dropped off the Alamo. Mother and daughter traveled with us. Liked artist sculpture. Wish I had more than 30 minutes at Japanese gardens. The tour guide gave us a good history of art on the tour. Beautiful scenery of San Jose mission of the church.

Alex our guide was so knowledgeable about the area. Very considerate, funny and overall a pleasure to have as a guide.
We had eight of us, all family, and all of us had a great time. Thank you Alex for our tour.

If I could give zero stars, I would. It advertised that they would pick you up at your hotel if it was downtown. We were staying at the Marriott at Riverwalk, but it wasn't an option . I picked one i thought would be close, but not knowing the area, it was a 25 min walk to get on the tour. I messaged my driver about a closer pick-up location and got no response. I walked 25 min to the pick-up location and arrived 15 min early as instructed. There was no one there to pick me up, and I did not get a call that anything had changed. I waited 20 min and messaged the driver twice. After no response, I called the contact number on my confirmation email. After explaining my situation and being told to contact my driver, they finally found out my tour had been canceled. No information was given as to why, and no one seemed to know what was going on. They did issue a full refund, but it ruined my entire afternoon. I won't be booking with them again. I had limited time and was looking forward to seeing San Antonio.
