Though it's tempting to while away your entire San Antonio vacation strolling, cruising and dining along the renowned River Walk, this destination has a fascinating history that includes the sites of five missions established along the San Antonio River in the early 1700s. Start your tour downtown with the Alamo, then pack a picnic lunch and venture out to San Antonio Missions National Historical Park for a scenic trip back in time to the area’s Spanish Colonial period.
