Cruising The San Antonio Texas River Walk (Paseo del Rio) In A Tour Boat
I shot this video with a handheld camera during a visit to San Antonio in June 2013. The city is most famous as the home of the Alamo, but in recent decades has also become known as a great tourist destination. One of the unique and most charming features in the downtown area is the River Walk (also known in Spanish as Paseo del Rio). And one of the most fun things to do on the RiverWalk is take a tour boat cruise.
The boats, which are really more like small barges, can carry 30-40 passengers at a time and hit all the most interesting sites along the river.
If possible, I'd recommend going in early spring or late fall when temperatures are more agreeable. Summertime temps are consistently in the 90s.

San Antonio's Hilton Palacio del Rio on the River Walk
Take a tour of the Hilton Palacio del Rio River Walk Hotel in San Antonio.
Originally built in 1968 for HemisFair, each room was completed off-site with everything including the plumbing. Then a crane lifted each room and stacked each in place.
Now conveniently located across from the San Antonio Convention Center and close to the Alamo and Tower of the Americas.
Don't forget Durty Nelly's Irish Pub in the Hilton, a long time favorite along the River Walk.

San Antonio landmarks
San Antonio is the second largest city in Texas. As the gatekeeper to the Rio Grande Valley, Hwy 10 and Hwy 35 carve a giant X across the face of the city.
With a population almost topping 1.4 million, you would expect San Antonio to be aloof, haughty and spoiled. Not the case! This friendly metropolis welcomes visitors with offerings of activities to please the most discriminating tastes.
Visit the historic Alamo, walk along the famous River Walk, stroll HemisFair Park and shop at the booths at Market Square.
Getting around is easy and inexpensive with the Via Trolley or hop on one of the BCycles (bike share program) from one docking station to the next.
Food is remarkable. Dine at the famous Mi Tierra or go totally upscale at the Guenther House.
For adult beverages, check out Blue Star Brewing Company or head over to the old Pearl Brewery (closed in 2001) which now houses restaurants and a culinary institute.
Think about a visit to San Antonio when making plans for your next travel adventure.

Starting Point: .
Houston Street is the name of one of San Antonio's oldest and most popular streets. Being adjacent to The Alamo where the Battle of the Alamo occurred, some buildings on the street sustained cannon fire during the war. The historic Majestic Theater is located on this street.
San Antonio, officially the City of San Antonio, is the seventh most populated city in the United States of America and the second most populated city in the state of Texas, with a population of 1,409,019. It was the fastest growing of the top 10 largest cities in the United States from 2000 to 2010, and the second from 1990 to 2000.
San Antonio was named for Saint Anthony of Padua, whose feast day is on June 13, by a 1691 Spanish expedition in the area. It is notable for Spanish colonial missions, the Alamo, the River Walk, the Tower of the Americas, the Alamo Bowl, and Marriage Island. Commercial entertainment includes SeaWorld and Six Flags Fiesta Texas theme parks, and according to the San Antonio Convention and Visitors Bureau, the city is visited by about 32 million tourists a year. The city is home to the five-time NBA champion San Antonio Spurs and hosts the annual San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo, one of the largest such events in the country.
The US armed forces have numerous facilities in San Antonio: Fort Sam Houston, Lackland Air Force Base, Randolph Air Force Base (which constitute Joint Base San Antonio), and Lackland AFB/Kelly Field Annex, with Camp Bullis and Camp Stanley located outside the city. Kelly Air Force Base operated out of San Antonio until 2001, when the airfield was transferred to Lackland AFB. The remaining portions of the base were developed as Port San Antonio, an industrial/business park and aerospace complex. San Antonio is home to six Fortune 500 companies and the South Texas Medical Center, the only medical research and care provider in the South Texas region.
The missions of the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park along with the Alamo, became part of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites on July 5, 2015.[citation needed] The San Antonio Missions became the 23rd U.S. site on the World Heritage List, which includes the Grand Canyon and the Statue of Liberty.
Economy
San Antonio has a diversified economy with about a $96.8 billion metropolitan Gross Domestic Product. This ranks the city 4th among Texas metropolitan areas and 38th in the United States. San Antonio's economy is focused primarily within military, health care, government civil service, financial services, oil and gas and tourism sectors. Within the past twenty years, San Antonio has become a significant location for American-based call centers and has added a significant manufacturing sector centered around automobiles.
Attractions
San Antonio is a popular tourist destination, often referred to simply as SA.
The Alamo Mission in San Antonio (the Alamo), located in Downtown, is Texas' top tourist attraction. Because of the mission, San Antonio is often called the Alamo City.[53]
The River Walk, which meanders through the Downtown area, is the city's second-most-visited attraction, giving it the additional nickname of River City. Extended an additional 13 miles between 2009-2013, the landscaped walking and bike path line the San Antonio River from the Museum Reach beginning at the Historic Pearl Brewery through downtown, Downtown Reach, past the Blue Star's Eagleland to the Mission Reach ending at Loop 410 South past Mission San Juan Capistrano.[54] Lined with numerous shops, bars, and restaurants, as well as the Arneson River Theater, this attraction is transformed into an impressive festival of lights during the Christmas and New Year holiday period, and is suffused with the local sounds of folklorico and flamenco music during the summer, particularly during celebrations such as the Fiesta Noche del Rio.

San Antonio Riverwalk Texas HD
A great place to eat, drink, relax and be merry. The Riverwalk came about from the 1926 damming of the San Antonio River to prevent flooding. Initially it was going to be a covered storm sewer which the San Antonio Conservation Society protested. In 1929 architect Robert Hugman submitted plans for the Riverwalk but it wasn't until 1939 and funding from Presidents Roosevelt's WPA that construction began.

Tower Of The Americas - Fun Things To Do In Downtown San Antonio TX
The Tower Of The Americas is one of the top tourists attractions not only in downtown San ntonio, but in the entire state of Texas.
The Tower was built as part of the World's Fair in San Antonio in 1968. The structure itself looks the same as it did during the World's Fair, but the City of San Antonio has done a lot in recent years to beautify the grounds with fountains, trees, plants and shrubbery to make the entire experience more appealing to visitors. You'll see a lot of those improvements in this video, which I shot with a cell phone camera in June of 2013.
The tower is surrounded by other interesting things to do and places to see. It's within easy walking distance of the historic Alamo, the charming River Walk, La Villita (the Little Village dating back to the city's early days), and HemisFair Plaza. The Alamodome and the henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center are also just a few steps away.
The Tower's official website says Located in downtown San Antonio, the 750-foot-tall Tower of the Americas provides guests the most spectacular view of the Alamo City. Enjoy the gorgeous panorama from the Tower's revolving Chart House Restaurant, take in the scenery from the Observation Deck or experience the thrilling 4D Theater Ride.
