The things to do in San Antonio range from fun tours of historic neighborhoods to sightings of Teddy Roosevelt’s ghost. The city has so much to offer that anyone can have fun here regardless of their age and personal interests. 

Kids love the amusement and theme parks, young adults enjoy the colorful city center with fun shops and eateries, while proper adults can tour the Alamo and the historic Mission churches. Or have a blast at the largest Six Flags in Texas because adults can enjoy amusement park rides too.

1. San Antonio River Walk

San Antonio’s River Walk is the top attraction in this Texas city. Landscaped walking paths are available on either side of the San Antonio River for roughly 15 miles. Shops, eateries, and hotels line the promenade, which sits one level below the city’s main roads. The Downtown area of the River Walk is the most popular with tourists and locals, but the promenade extends many miles north, and you could continue walking for more than an hour. 

The River Walk can get awfully crowded in the summer months, but finding a more tranquil area shouldn’t be a challenge. Just keep walking past all the busy restaurants and bars; the further down the River Walk you go, the smaller the crowds you’ll encounter.

How iconic is the San Antonio River Walk? Enough that the San Antonio Spurs celebrate winning the title by doing a victory boat parade. 

Practical Information: San Antonio River Walk is a 15-mile promenade accessible for free at any time of day. 

2. Tour La Villita Historic Village

La Villita is a historic artsy neighborhood sitting one level above the San Antonio River Walk. The district is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places for its 19th-century buildings that serve as examples of early residential development in San Antonio.

This old neighborhood is home to art galleries, shops, and colorful sculptures. If you like the sugar skull motif, you’ll love it in this picturesque little village. 

La Villita assembly hall is also in this district, and it’s an iconic sight in the San Antonio skyline. The building is known for the painted flower on its concave roof, and you can easily spot it from the observation deck at the Tower of the Americas. 

Practical Information: La Villita Historic Village is accessible any time of day, for free. Most shops in the neighborhood are open from 10 AM to 6 PM.

The Historic Market Square is in western San Antonio, outside the center of the city. And it’s absolutely worth it to go out of your way to see it because it’s one of the city’s best destinations for souvenir shopping and cheap food. 

Come here for authentic Tex-Mex food, colorful clothes, jewelry, and all sorts of trinkets and crafts. Even if you’re not very hungry when you visit the Historic Market Square, I recommend you try at least the puffy tacos. They’re an iconic San Antonio delicacy and one of the best local foods. 

Bean burgers, chicken on a stick, and sweet potato fries are other San Antonio specialties to try if you’re doing a culinary tour of the city. I will say that it’s a good thing most of the city center is walkable because it will take thousands of steps to burn off all those delicious calories. 

Practical Information: The Historic Market Square is open from 10 AM to 6 PM. Entrance to the area is free of charge. 

4. Appreciate The View From The Tower of The Americas

The Tower of the Americas is one of two observation decks in Texas and the only one in San Antonio. It was built for the 1968 World Fair and took 18 months to finish.

It’s the centerpiece of HemisFair Park in Downtown San Antonio. Has an observation deck on top and a revolving restaurant where you can get a nice (but expensive) meal with great views. If you buy tickets for the observation deck, you also get access to the 4D theater, where you can take a ride in 4D over Texas.

Insider Tip: Come here after dark for a fabulous view of the San Antonio skyline. 

Practical Information: The Tower of the Americas is open from 10 AM to 10-11 PM. Tickets for the observation deck are $18.50 for adults. 

5. Walk The San Antonio Mission Trail

Head to the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park to discover one of only 24 UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the United States. San Antonio missions were important outposts for Catholic religious orders established by the Spanish colonists. The purpose of the missions was to help spread Christianity among the native population. 

Four out of five San Antonio missions are preserved in the park; the fifth is by far the most famous known, known as the Alamo. The Mission Trail is a walking path through the national park, which allows you to discover all four missions on the grounds. Bicycles are available, and they’re the best for getting from one mission to another quickly. 

It’s also possible to just drive from one spot to another, and this is the best option if you have very limited time in San Antonio. If you only have time to visit one of these landmarks, make it Mission San Jose. It’s the best-preserved building with period furnishings and an exhibit that offers insight into the lives of the local population in the early 18th century. 

Practical Information: San Antonio Missions National Historical Park is open daily from sunrise to sunset. Entrance to the park is free of charge. 

6. Go On A River Cruise

Don’t have enough time to explore the historic River Walk on foot? That’s fine because you can tour the entire pedestrian area in a boat in about 30 minutes! Go Rio cruises are available at multiple spots on the River Walk, so just walk along the river until you spot a Go Rio ticket booth or empty boats. 

The boats depart every 15-20 minutes, so you might have to wait a little while for a free seat. Buy tickets online if you don’t want to wait in line at the ticket booth, but keep in mind that they’re not timed tickets. Seats on the boat are given out on a first-come-first-served basis. 

I recommend doing the river cruise at night for the absolute best experience. The boats all light up in bright colors, and there’s something special about the River Walk after dark. All the cruises are narrated, and the guide will tell you a lot about the history of the River Walk and its importance for San Antonio and its residents. 

Practical Information: Go Rio cruises take place every 15-20 minutes. A ticket for adults is $14.5. 

7. Ghost Tour of San Antonio

San Antonio is an excellent destination for ghost hunts and haunted tours. If that doesn’t sound like something you would enjoy, just skip to the next thing on this list before I traumatize you with ghost stories. 

The most haunted building in the city is of course the Alamo, where people to this day report seeing ghosts of Texan soldiers. Opposite the historic fort is the Menger Hotel, another popular destination in the city for ghost sightings. Guests have reported hearing strange noises in the hotel, seeing faces in the mirror, smelling cigar smoke, and even encountering the ghost of Teddy Roosevelt at the bar. 

Visit all of San Antonio’s haunted sites on your own, or arrange a guided ghost tour of the city. They take place after dark, of course, and are my recommendation if you want to end the night terrified and lie in bed restless. 

Practical Information: Ghost tours of San Antonio take place at night and usually last for 2-3 hours. 

8. Get Lost At The Japanese Tea Garden

The Japanese Tea Garden is close to the San Antonio Zoo, north of the city center. The botanical garden dates back to the early 20th century and features koi ponds, stone bridges, a pagoda, and a waterfall. Countless plants and trees adorn this lush garden, and the mesmerizing landscaping is the best thing about it. 

Come here if you ever need to escape the busy streets of Downtown San Antonio. You can forget you’re in Texas for a moment as you roam around the grounds of the captivating botanical garden. 

Practical Information:  The Japanese Tea Garden is open from 7 AM to 5 PM. Entrance to the botanical garden is free of charge. 

9. Visit The Alamo

The Alamo is probably the most well-known landmark in Texas. The legendary fort is one of the first missions in Texas and was originally called  Misión San Antonio de Valero.

It became world-famous after the Battle of the Alamo, which was a turning point in the Texas Revolution. Today, the small fort is a museum with artifacts from the revolution era, one of the biggest events in Texas history. The Alamo is one of the most visited historic sites in the US so it’s always busy.

It’s small and doesn’t take long to see. But the lines are long, and you will have to wait in line at a place that is so popular. The church on-site is free, but you need to buy tickets for the other buildings.

Practical Information: Tickets for the Alamo exhibit are $14 for adults. A guided tour of the complex with entrance to all the buildings is $45. 

10. Sightseeing in The Pearl District

The Pearl District is the area of San Antonio surrounding the historic Pearl Brewery. Originally founded as the City Brewery in 1881, it would quickly become the largest brewery in Texas and the only one to survive the prohibition. 

The brewery closed down in 2001, and the building today houses shops and restaurants. Come here to discover a different part of San Antonio, one that’s full of history and interesting landmarks but away from the city center. 

The Grotto is also in the Pearl district, situated on the River Walk south of the brewery building. It’s an artificial riverfront cave with faces carved into the rocks, walking paths through the cliffs, and man-made waterfalls. 

Practical Information: The Pearl Brewery is approximately a 30-minute walk from the Downtown, accessible by walking paths on the San Antonio River Walk. 

11. Discover The Collection at  The San Antonio Museum of Art

The San Antonio Museum of Art is located in the old Lone Star Brewery building, just a 15-minute walk from the Pearl District. It has an amazing collection of Latin American, Greek, Roman, and Egyptian art spanning nearly 5,000 years. Paintings, sculptures, photographs, furniture, everyday objects, and more are all on display.

The American collection is on two floors and has a section dedicated to Texas artists. The Asian collection is the largest in the Southwest, so if you are an art lover in San Antonio, you have to see this museum.

Practical Information: The San Antonio Museum of Art is open from 10 AM to 5/7 PM every day except Monday. Tickets are $20 for adults. 

12. Amusement Park Rides at Six Flags Fiesta Texas

If you’re in San Antonio with kids, there’s no better place to take them than Six Flags Fiesta Texas. The theme park is also known as The Thrill Capital of South Texas with more than 60 rides throughout the grounds, including a water park with at least 15 slides. If you’re looking for even more water rides, I suggest you check out SeaWorld San Antonio instead. 

Rising to an impressive 205 feet, the Scream drop tower is the park’s scariest ride. If you want to feel adrenaline coursing through your veins, it’s THE ride for you. But the centerpiece of the amusement park is the Boomerang rollercoaster, featuring insane twists and turns at a speed of almost 60 miles per hour. 

The amusement park can be done in a couple of hours if you’re short on time, or you could spend an entire day here going on different rides and having the time of your life. If you decide to stay at the Six Flags Fiesta for at least half a day, consider getting a One-Day Dining Deal to save money on food. 

Practical Information: One-day passes for the Six Flags Fiesta Texas theme park start at $45. 

13. Explore The Natural Bridge Caverns

One of the best natural landmarks in Texas is just a 30-minute drive from central San Antonio. Come here for underground tours of the caverns but also to have some fun on the adventure courses above ground. 

The caverns are remarkable to see with all the different geological formations. However, I don’t recommend this tour for travelers with limited mobility because it can get very strenuous at times. Also, the humidity is constantly at 99% and the temperature is normally around 70 degrees, which is uncharacteristically warm for underground caves. 

The adventure park features a maze, rope courses, and multiple zip rails above the ground with panoramic views of Texas Hill Country. Everything here is kid-friendly, and there are even a couple of exhibits that are specifically designed for the youngest visitors. 

Insider Tip: Wear sturdy shoes because the cavern floor is wet and slippery. 

Practical Information: The fee for cavern tours is approximately $30-50, depending on the day you visit and the type of tour you choose. Natural Bridge Caverns Park is open daily from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM.

San Antonio Botanical Garden is a vast green space in the northern part of the city. Featuring ponds, landscaped walking trails, and lush greenery all around, the place is a sight for sore eyes if you’re tired of looking at the downtown buildings. 

Several conservatories are at the botanical garden, and they’re special not only for the plants you’ll see inside but also for their shape. The glass structures are practically pieces of art and wonderful to see. The plants and flowers inside are mostly the ones that are native to the region, but they’re nonetheless lovely. 

The botanical garden also features a cafe, and it’s a great place to sit down for a quick break before you move on to the next San Antonio landmark. 

Practical Information: The San Antonio Botanical Garden is open from 9 AM to 5 PM. The entrance fee is $18-22 for adults. 

15. Jump Into an LED Ball Pit at Hopscotch San Antonio

Hopscotch San Antonio is a modern art gallery with very fun interactive exhibits. There are only two Hopschotch galleries in the United States, so a trip to San Antonio is the perfect opportunity to discover this fabulous space. 

It’s unlike any art gallery you’ve ever visited. Many exhibits are interactive and extremely fun. You can play in an LED ball pit, walk around a rainbow cave, and jump around on a quantum trampoline. The exhibit also features murals and sculptures, but they’re far from traditional artworks. 

The art gallery is also one of the most Instagrammable places in San Antonio, so you must come here if you want to commemorate your trip to this city with epic photos. 

Insider Tip: To engage with some of the interactive exhibits, visitors must take off their shoes and wear socks. 

Practical Information: Hopscotch San Antonio is open Wednesday to Sunday from 12 PM to 10 PM. General admission to the art gallery is $24. 

16. Travel Back In Time At The Buckhorn Saloon & Museum

Go to the Buckhorn Saloon & Museum in Downtown San Antonio for a taste of the Wild West. The restaurant is a full-on Western saloon and has two museums on the property. One ticket gets you into both museums.

The Buckhorn Museum has a weird collection of taxidermied animals. I didn’t like it very much. I mean, it’s an interesting collection, and I’ve never seen anything like it in my life; I just don’t like taxidermy very much.

I liked the Texas Ranger Museum much better, with its recreation of a Wild West town, complete with a saloon and a jail cell. You can walk through those swinging saloon doors and pose for pictures behind bars, like a real outlaw. The exhibit has guns of famous Texas rangers, their badges, and photos.

Practical Information: The Buckhorn Saloon & Museum is open from 10 AM to 5 PM. Admission tickets are $22.99 and include entrance to all the exhibits in the building. You can book them here.

17. Tour The Spanish Governor’s Palace

The Spanish Governor’s Palace is somewhat of a hidden gem in San Antonio. Include it in your San Antonio itinerary if you want to see a fascinating stucco palace complete with period furniture and ghosts. The palace is rumored to be haunted, and it’s often included in San Antonio ghost tours. 

You won’t see any ghosts if you visit during the day, and you can focus on the impeccable colonial architecture and stunning antique furnishings. Beautiful artworks adorn the interior of the palace and its grounds, but I personally found the kitchen area the most interesting.  I’ve never seen anything like it before, especially in such good condition. 

Insider Tip: The Palace is situated between the San Fernando Cathedral and the Historic Market Square, so you can see three popular San Antonio attractions in one afternoon. 

Practical Information: The Spanish Governer’s Palace is open from 9 AM to 5 PM. Tickets are $5. 

18. Day Trip to Austin

San Antonio is only an hour and a half from Austin. The bustling state capital is one of the best places to visit on day trips from San Antonio, both for the proximity and wonderful attractions it offers. Austin is known for its excellent cultural scene, great food, live music, and just a great atmosphere all around.

If you consider yourself an art lover, you’ll have the time of your life in Austin. The city is home to many wonderful museums and art exhibits, which range from a museum dedicated to Charles Umlauf’s works to a modern art installation named Cathedral of Junk. 

The Texas Capitol is an iconic building that you can’t miss while you’re in Austin. It is absolutely incredible to see and visitors can get free, 30-minute guided tours of the landmark complex. 

Practical Information: Austin is 80 miles northeast of San Antonio. It takes about an hour and a half to reach the city both by car and local bus.

The Witte Museum is located in Brackenridge Park and is one of the oldest museums in San Antonio. It tells the story of Texas from prehistoric times to today. The museum has a vast collection of historic artifacts and some of the highlights are dinosaur bones and Sheriff’s badges from the 1800s.

It’s great, and there’s something for everyone, no matter what age. Kids love the giant dinosaur replicas, and adults have more fun with the Texas art, textiles, and everyday objects from a bygone era.

Not in downtown San Antonio but public transportation is available. Bus from Alamo to Witte Museum is 20 minutes.

Practical Information: The Witte Museum is open from 10 AM to 6 PM. Tickets are $16 for adults.

San Fernando Cathedral is yet another in a string of historic landmarks to be found in Downtown San Antonio. The landmark church was initially constructed in the early 18th century and serves as a wonderful example of Spanish colonial architecture. 

The opulent altar and marvelous stained glass windows are the highlights of San Fernando Cathedral. Free guided tours are available to all visitors, although you won’t get to see the interior of the church. Instead, the tours take you around the cathedral grounds while the local guide recounts the church’s history. 

This church is often included in ghost tours of San Antonio. If you come here at night, you’ll get to see a spectacular light and music show, and you might even experience some paranormal events. 

Practical Information: San Fernando Cathedral is open from 9 AM to 5 PM and is accessible free of charge.

Best Time To Visit

The best time to visit San Antonio is from November to April. March and April are generally the most popular months for trips to this Texas city because of the mild, warm weather. It’s perfect for long walks around the city center and excursions to nearby parks and national landmarks.

Avoid traveling to the city in the summer if you can. San Antonio has very hot summers, and the temperatures often exceed 90 degrees throughout the day. That’s too hot to be comfortable when you’re outside most of the day, especially with the city’s high humidity. 

Getting There

Look for flights to San Antonio International Airport. It’s only a 15-minute drive from downtown San Antonio, so you’ll be at your hotel in no time. Buses also run from the airport to the city center; tickets are inexpensive at $2.5, and the ride is only 30-40 minutes long. It’s worth considering if you’re on a tighter budget and don’t want to spend money on taxis. 

Alternatively, you can fly to Austin and then get a ride to San Antonio. The airport in Austin is bigger and busier than the one in San Antonio, with more domestic and international connections. The capital is just an hour and a half from San Antonio by both car and bus. 

Getting Around

Much of central San Antonio is walkable, so you can explore a large portion of the city on foot. Cycling is popular here and an excellent alternative to taxi rides and car rentals. San Antonio has a good bike-sharing system, and you can visit most of the attractions listed in this guide on a bicycle. 

A rental car would help you get around San Antonio quicker, but it’s not a necessity. The public transport network in San Antonio is good and can even help you get all the way to Austin. So, consider renting a car only if you have very limited time in the city and you want to visit as many landmarks as possible. 

How Much Time Do You Need

Three days is the perfect amount of time for a San Antonio trip. It’s more than enough time to cover all the top landmarks in the city, as well as a day trip to a nearby city or national park. I recommend incorporating a day trip to Austin in your three-day itinerary because it’s very close to San Antonio. 

The city can be done in two days, but you’ll need to choose between a day trip or city attractions for the second day of the trip. And if you only have one day in San Antonio, prioritize all the historic places and buildings. 

San Antonio City Pass
