Be prepared to be wet! Be prepared to learn a lot! Our guild was wonderful and he knew so much about the history
Joseph, our tour guide, was excellent. Very knowledgeable. Tour covers the 4 Missions outside downtown core.
The experience was so good, our guide , Mat made it all so special. He brought the missions to life with his stories and historical facts.
Matt was an excellent guide, and explained all kind of details and curiosities. The visit was really interesting, and I enjoyed it a lot. Many thanks to Matt!!
We had a wonderful time on this tour. Matthew was so great at story telling and made the trip educational and fun. He took into account that we were there on a very warm day and told stories in the a/c before we walked to the different missions. This was one of the best tours we have ever been on.
Wonderful tour. Our guide, Matt, was very knowledgeable and fun. It was a great experience!
Our tour guide Matt was so knowledgable and passionate, and we were lucky to be the only 2 people on the trip. Really interesting history for us, being Sunday, mass was on in a couple of the missions, but we were able to peak in which was a humbling experience. A really great trip, banboozled with history and culture!
We had a great half-day with Matt as our guide. We learned a lot about San Antonio history and the missions.
This was an excellent tour with Matt leading the way. His knowledge of mission & San Antonio history is remarkable & his personality is perfect for the job. He’s witty & funny & we probably talked his ear off too! We would love to do another tour of any type with Matt. He went over & above his duties with us several times.
