San Antonio River Tours, San Antonio

Address Historia (Under Market St. Bridge & Alamo St.) Map, Website

We visited San Antonio at Christmas time (after Christmas and before Jan 1) and the river is lit with christmas lights. We took this boat tour at dusk with 6 little kids and it was great. We were able to enjoy the lights the kids thought the boat ride was fun. it was a little long but we brought snacks so that saved us at the end. The tour boat driver was very interesting and my 3 YO old learned a valuable lesson from him - if you drink too much beer, you can fall in the river. Be aware that they drain the river once a year in January for cleaning/maintenance. They have a Mud Festival during that time which sounds like a lot of fun to the mom of 2 little boys!
