Sean and I Near the Hotel

What makes San Antonio so special is the River Walk. The River Walk is about 4.5 miles long depending on where you start measureing from. We met a river taxi driver who said he walked the length each day round trip 9 miles.

We walked sections of the river every day. It's so easy to get to the River Walk area: there are access points going down to it just about every block. We had no trouble finding it or navigating around the paths.

Some sections of the walk are lined with bustling businesses, other areas are more peaceful. All the sections we walked were lovely. Here are some of the photos.
