Great tour and tour guide! - Alex was a great tour guide, going above and beyond! He gave us a lot of information about each mission and afterwards made a terrific recommendation for lunch. He called to ensure we could get a table and walked us in. He also told sis about the surrounding area for shopping.

San Antonio Missions Tour - We learned so much more than we would have by taking the tours on our own. Domingo was a great guide. So much great history. We are so glad we toured the amazing missions.

Alex was amazing! I have... - Alex was amazing! I have lived in Texas my entire life and learned things that I thought I already knew. Alex has a great personality for this line of work. He is relatable, funny, and informative. He is so good that at one of the missions, another visitor started tagging along to listen to the history. I would definitely recommend this tour
