Tour Boat and Spring Blossoms
Take in the beauty and history of San Antonio, TX with a Rio San Antonio Cruise; a 35 to 40 minute narrated boat tour along 2 1/2 miles of the famous River Walk.

The first sight you'll see is the Alamo, the famous Texas symbol of freedom and independence. It's where 200 Texas revolutionaries fought hard for 12 days in 1836 against General Santa Ana's Mexican forces, the battle was lost, but the spirit of Texas freedom remains at the Alamo today. You'll also see La Villita, San Antonio's first neighborhood in the heart of the city that is now a district with art galleries, shops, and restaurants. Then the tour goes by the San Fernando Cathedral, founded in 1731, and today draws 5,000 people to weekend masses. Also see the San Antonio Central Library, a colorful addition to the downtown area.

Wan't too exciting four our 6 year old. More for older crowd, I think. It was very beautiful and the restaurants were fantastic (we ate dinner there most of the time). You can get a great sense of history there, but no excitement for the kids.
