Exploring Texas ain’t no small vacation, it’s a lifetime endeavor. But what if you only have one day? Well that’s where we come in. Here is San Antonio's' chapter in the saga.
The Daytripper: I highly recommend the Institute of Chili run by Chili Queens, Anna and Jenn. Don’t miss “The Bomb”, a shredded pork sandwich topped with Chili and a fried egg.
The Daytripper: Head to the Beethoven Maennerchor, a German beer garden and singing club that’s been around since 1867! Most don’t think of the Germans when they think of San Antonio, but this will change your mind.
The Daytripper: If you’re looking for something to see in Southtown, head to the Blue Star Art Complex and check out the contemporary art at the Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum.
The Daytripper: So, everybody knows about the Alamo. But, those that want to head further south can visit the other 4 missions of San Antonio inside of the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park.
The Daytripper: Park about 50 feet before the tracks on Shane Rd., put the car in neutral and turn off the engine. Let off the brakes and be amazed as you travel up hill over the tracks.
The Daytripper: If you’re looking for a way to navigate all of this, hop on a B cycle – San Antonio’s bike share program. A simple fee gets you a bike all day with multiple stations all over the city.
