Thanks for any suggestions- looking for the must see/experiences items/places events that define your city- first time in Texas as well-

San Antonio has 5 of the top 10 tourist attraction in the state of Texas, more than any other city in the state:
At a minimum, I recommend seeing the first two and doing a Riverwalk boat tour. That much is doable in a half-day, with no driving required if your hotel is downtown.

thanks!
If you want to check out the Riverwalk, I'd start at the Pearl Brewery and walk along the extension towards downtown. That way you get to see the peaceful, pretty part of the river along with the touristy part.
thank you!
By the alamo is the Ripley' s museum. I always thought it was cool.
Eat everything you can get your hands on...
looks great- thank you

Go to Pico de Gallo instead.
Good restaurants include Rosario's Café y Cantina. Great ceviche, shrimp nachos, pozole, and fantastic margaritas. Address is: 910 South Alamo 78205.. The other place is called Beto's. This one is a little farther away, but the drive is worth it. Empenadas that will blow your mind. If you get anything, get their dessert empenada with banana and leche quemada. Address is: 8142 Broadway 78209. If you want any special kind of food, PM me. I know most of the joints in town.
