Climb aboard the San Antonio City Tour and treat yourself to the Alamo City’s most relaxing and complete sightseeing experience! Unlike hop-on, hop-off tours, this fully narrated, non-stop journey lets you settle into your seat and soak up the sights, stories, and scenery of San Antonio without ever worrying about routes, stops, or reboarding schedules. With convenient hourly departures, it’s easy to fit the tour into any vacation itinerary — from departure to return, your expert guide handles everything. All you have to do is enjoy the ride.
Hop aboard one of our trolleys and you’ll experience Transportainment®, a delightful combination of transportation and entertainment.
Then, as the sun sets, climb aboard the San Antonio City Lights Night Tour and watch the Alamo City transform into a dazzling display of lights, architecture, and unforgettable nighttime views. This package combines the flexibility of daytime exploration with the magic of San Antonio after dark for one incredible experience.
Your journey winds past the legendary Alamo, where the story of the Texas Revolution comes to life through your guide’s narration. Roll through downtown past the majestic San Fernando Cathedral — the oldest standing church building in Texas — and the vibrant Historic Market Square, the largest Mexican market in the United States. Glide by the King William Historic District with its stunning 19th-century mansions and catch views of the soaring Tower of the Americas at Hemisfair.
Along the way, your guide will point out the best places to dine, shop, and explore after your tour, so you’ll finish the ride with a perfect plan for the rest of your visit. It’s the ideal first thing to do in San Antonio — get the full picture of the city in one effortless, entertaining loop, then spend the rest of your trip diving into the places that caught your eye.
No maps to study. No stops to time. No buses to chase. Just San Antonio, beautifully told, from the comfort of your seat.
San Antonio truly sparkles under the stars — and there’s no better way to take it all in than aboard Old Town Trolley Tours!
This 1-hour 15-minute tour cruises through downtown San Antonio, showcasing the city’s most stunning sights at night: from the elegant glow of the Alamo to the lively colors of the River Walk, and the illuminated Tower Life Building. We will also make a photo-op spot towards the end of the tour to capture the stunning beauty of the downtown city skyline.
Our conductors slow down to spotlight each landmark, giving you time to snap that perfect photo while sharing fascinating facts and fun stories.
Throughout the tour, enjoy a curated selection of music inspired by San Antonio and Texas, adding a local soundtrack to your sightseeing experience.
