Donut Tour DTSA

It was such a delicious and informative tour. I loved learning so much about each stop as well as different locations downtown. Loni, our tour guide was amazing and allowed us to stay at each location as long as we wanted to. I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting San Antonio or a local like me.

We know to tip

it was not worth the price when your hosts habitually keeps stating we accept tips. Repeated multiple times and it took away. We were all there on business so it was obvious she was getting a big tip but it just got lower each time she kept stating it. $100 and now down to $20.

Operator response

Thank you for joining us in San Antonio. We're sorry the repeated mentions of tipping distracted from your experience. Our guides do rely on tips as part of their income, but we agree it should never become the focus of the tour. We'll address this with our team. We're disappointed such a small part of the experience overshadowed the rest, and we hope to make it up to you on a future tour.

Donuts, Donuts, Donuts… Sign Me Up

I did this tour on my last full day in San Antonio and it was a great experience. Leroy, my tour guide, was so nice and knowledgeable. The donuts themselves were delicious as well. Plus the surprise stop at an ice cream shop was amazing and great way to end the tour. The tour is recently new and definitely worth doing.
