My husband surprised me with a long weekend trip to San Antonio for our 8th anniversary. On our first day, we became aware of the 2 day pass which included Alamo Trolley Tours. This was the best investment we made. Leroy was the best tour guide EVER! A native of San Antonio, Leroy was very informative about the history, the... More

We got this tour for two days. They took us to several places, dropped us off and picked us up when we were finished. No time limit. Joe was our guide and he was sooooooooooooo good, funny but so informative. If you get the chance to do this, wait for Joe and let him guide you. He's a hootg.

The hopper lets you get off and on. With 45 minutes for the next trolley you have time for the stop. Informative but one driver added much about his home life.

I used both days of my two day pass - the first day I did the complete tour in one go, then went back a few days later and got off at the places I was most interested in. I was impressed that the two guides I traveled with were knowledgeable and didn't give a standard talk. I would say... More

We chose this trolley because of the reviews and the option to use the 2nd free day at anytime rather than having to use the next day. First day, the driver Phillip spent the first 5-10 minutes telling us what a great narrative speaker he was and then told my dh that "sir, you don't need to talk because I... More

Dear Sandj1850, I hope you did use the free pass that was given to you. I am sure that your experience would have been better on Saturday. I would like to comment on each of the issues that you had. First of all Phillip did not mean to be "sexist". I am sorry if you took his comments in that... More

We only rode the Trolley one day despite having a free ticket for the second day, however even without using the second day's ticket the bundled price that included a Riverboat Cruise and the 4D ride over Texas and Observation Tower ride made the tickets a good deal. Note that 45 minutes is not long enough to see many of... More

Our first trip to San Antonio was thoroughly enjoyable and our Alamo Trolley Tour driver, Alex, was not only knowledgeable from furnny, entertaining and helpful. We would recommend the hop-on/hop-off ticket.

We thoroughly enjoyed our first Trip to Texas! Our tour on the Alamo Trolley was very informational. Alex, and later Robert, were terrific. Alex gave us an in-depth look as only a native son could do. He gave much info about the river walk-past, present and future. He gave insight to the mission system and how it changed the lives...
