San Antonio Getaway

Land-only San Antonio city break with a 2-day trolley tour

San Antonio Getaway, a rail journey with Amtrak Vacations

Amtrak Vacations sells this San Antonio Getaway as a 3-day, 2-night land-only package, with rail fare quoted and booked separately at your chosen class of Coach, Roomette, or Bedroom. The $299 USD price covers 2 nights of hotel accommodations and a 2-day San Antonio Old Town Trolley Hop-On Hop-Off tour, which lets travelers hop off at attractions including the Alamo, the historic Buckhorn Saloon, and the Texas Ranger Museum, then rejoin the trolley when ready. Free time is built around the trolley stops for wandering the Riverwalk and downtown San Antonio at your own pace. This suits travelers who want a short, self-directed city break with one flexible sightseeing pass rather than a fully escorted tour, and who are comfortable arranging their own rail booking.
