Check out The Alamo with Your Tour Group
It’s hard to picture “San Antonio” without thinking about the famous Alamo. This historic fortress is one of the United States’ most popular historic sites and houses hundreds of years of Texas history. Visitors can take a guided tour of the grounds, explore the museum’s collections, and see special events that commemorate the 1836 Battle of the Alamo.
While buses aren’t permitted to park at The Alamo, your bus driver can drop off your group at the Houston Street gate and return when you’re ready to head on to the next stop. Check out the City of San Antonio’s bus parking guide for instructions on the best place to store your bus in between stops!
