I lived to “whole” experience we were given! The history, holiday drinks, lights, boat tour, and cathedral was an amazing combination!

This was a great way to see the San Antonio Riverwalk. We were able to walk along the river, got on a boat right away, (the lines were 3 hours long without the tour). Also got to see the light show on the Cathedral. We enjoyed the tour.

very knowledgable guides.

The tour was great. Our tour guides Anthony and Claudia were awesome. They had a lot of knowledge regarding Christmas and Christmas Traditions that help shape San Antonio the way it is today. For example, we were unaware that there was a large German population in the area at one point. Also, we loved the fact that we got the boat tour and our tour guide had a lot of knowledge. The only downside to our tour was the simple fact that sometimes it was hard to hear the guides, especially if it was noisy in the area we were in. For example, when we went to the Biergarten for our holiday wine/hot chocolate, Claudia was talking about European holiday traditions and my party could not hear what she was saying due to the noise coming from the bar (other conversations and music) and people walking by going to the Riverwalk. So, we missed that segment which would have been very interesting to hear.
