See the Most Popular Sites in San Antonio!
This 60 minute tour takes you through some of the most popular historic sites in San Antonio, from The Alamo to the Mission Concepcion. On the Alamo Trolley Tour you will begin by visiting the Alamo, a historic landmark of amazing significance. Next you will drive by some more modern sites, the IMAX Theatre, Rivercenter Mall, and the docking area for riverboat rides. After this dash of modernism you head to multiculturalism at the Institute of Texan Cultures where you can learn about 27 different ethnicities (admission to the museum is not included in this tour. Check out the hop on add-on if you want to check out any of these sites in depth.)
From a museum to another historical site, the tour continues to the Mission Concepcion which is the oldest unrestored stone church in the United States! From here the tour heads to a central part of San Antonio, the Market Square. Here you can learn about the Mexican culture by doing, not just seeing. Next the tour heads to the San Fernando Cathedral which was founded in 1738 by the Catholic Church. The final stop on your tour is La Villita, which is San Antonio's oldest surviving neighborhood, founded in the 1750s.
