It was a wonderful experience to visit these historic missions and get a perspective of life back then. Claudia (our guide) and Don (our driver) were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. They made our experience even that much more pleasant. I’d highly recommend the trip — and a great change from the hustle and bustle of downtown San Antonio.
