Excellent amenity; despite the heat and humidity we really enjoyed our stroll. Our hotel was nearby so we could retreat to cool off. Plenty of restaurants, bars and cafes: also very picturesque. Highly recommended as a core point whilst staying in the city. Visitors can also choose the boat tour , which looked neat although we preferred to walk.

Food is always great down here, and the locals are friendly. BEWARE Just don't get scammed by the monks! You think im joking, they put a bracelet on you like it's a gift then demand payment. And they get REALLY pushy I've seen it happen more than once.

You cannot go to San Antonio without a river walk. It is really nice, so well laid out and full of life. You can also choose more quiet areas if you wish so. A must-do for all.

There are lots of really neat shops, restaurants, hotels and bars all along the Riverwalk. Further, it offers some of San Antonio's most beautiful scenery. However, the whole thing is like a maze. We were constantly lost. Coming up on to the wrong streets in places we didn't plan and could never seem to get back to places we wanted to check out.

Fabulous walks with art, mosaics and historic markers going for miles. Downtown loop wasn't as nice as crowded and lined with chain restaurants. Further north, lovely cafes and restaurants that are unique and more spacious. Character

Absolutely amazing! So beautiful and fun at night! A must see while visiting San Antonio. We did the sunset river cruise, and although it was short, it was fun and informative. Lots of great shops and eateries. Loved it!

During a four night stay in Texas, we visited the historic city of San Antonio. We travelled from Austin on the greyhound bus, which is a dammed site better than the 56 from Durham to Bishop Auckland. After a walk through Travis Park we stumbled across the Buckhorn saloon and museum. An incredible collection of "wild west" artifacts and well worth a visit. Next was a short walk to the Alamo, passing some beautiful architecture on the way. Some people say they are underwhelmed by the size of the Alamo. The only remaining chunk of history is the Chapel. A great piece of American history. Personally, I loved the place. I remember watching the original movie (as a child), with Hollywood legends John Wayne and Richard Widmark, amongst others. ...a little footnote: Eleven Englishmen gave their lives trying to defend an Amercan way of life, something I'm incredibly proud of. After a morning sightseeing, it was time to head towards the Riverwalk, and join the hundreds of Sunderland fans congregated along the waterfront. Some excellent bars bars, with plenty of Guinness and some decent local brews. After a cracking afternoon, it was time to head up to Toyota Fields for a friendly that was cleverly advertised as SAFC v SAFC. This was my first taste of a "soccer" match and it certainly didn't disappoint, with the locals being very passionate and knowledgeable about football. Overall a brilliant away day.

This is my favorite part of San Antonio. Beautiful during the day and in the evening when lit up with all the twinkling lights. Lined with stores and restaurants which all have outdoor seating right alongside the water. Was lucky enough to see a Flamenco dancing rehearsal at the little Arneson Theater with the ampitheater seating on the other side of the water. It's a wonderful, unique experience. Do not leave San Antonio without seeing this.

Like most people, this was one of my top attractions and primary reasons to come to San Antonio. I walked the San Antonio River Walk everyday while I was in San Antonio, including a river cruise and watching the Day of the Dead parade. The only think I didn’t like, was the quantity of debris and garbage in the river, as I know the City of San Antonio can do a better job at clean up.

Beautiful lights, river, music and festive vibes with a stroll on the Riverwalk. Crowded during the holidays, but worth it. Restaurants and pubs on the river are pricey, but nearby areas and Market Square offer delicious Mexican meals, chicken and BBQ. Huge Riverwalk Mall is there also and has a good food court.
