I am passionate about our beautiful, quirky, historic city and its famous river. I'm a Native Texan and a downtowner for 40 years - come with me to discover surprising secrets, scandalous stories, hidden art, vibrant murals, and handsome architectural details that will enrich your visit to San Antonio. The urban environment rewards those with a keen eye who are curious and appreciate what many never see, tend to overlook, or know very little about - this is the San Antonio you will experience on my satisfyingly real tours. One of my greatest pleasures is sharing San Antonio and enabling others to experience its charming peculiarities from a local perspective. Everyone on my tour receives a list of my recommended places to eat - all locally owned and all places where the real people go. Also, I can adapt and create tours for larger groups via bus or van, if desired. Please join me - I look forward to meeting you.

Overview of your San Antonio tour

I would love to share with you my favorite of San Antonio's delightfully quirky, overlooked secrets - I have collected them for years and they are what make our city extra special. My goal is getting you off the tourist track. Let me show you unique views, share scandalous stories, and reveal hidden-in-plain-sight discoveries that will enhance your visit and appreciation for our antique downtown. Look closely (really closely) and find historic graffiti, broken noses, urban dragons, a secret entranceway, ghost signs, 9 month hotel, where and why Lebron James pitched a fit, and many more. If you appreciate the odd and unusual, and if you want to encounter what you will not see on other tours, come along with me. One of my most favorite tours!

Your San Antonio tour itinerary

We will begin near the Texas flag on Alamo Plaza in front of the Alamo, sometimes called the Alamo Church. There are lots of discoveries to be made on the plaza and opportunities for photos. From Alamo Plaza, we will meander by La Villita and then a lovely, quiet corner of the San Antonio Riverwalk. Our comfortable walking tour will meander both indoors and outdoors. We will travel across multiple surfaces, including stone, concrete, and some slightly uneven surfaces; however, the route is fully accessible for persons that are mobility impaired. Along the way there will be opportunities for refreshments and restroom breaks.
