Things To Do
Float the Comal / Guadalupe River
If floating a river sounds like your idea of a good time, you and Kaitlyn would get along. The Guadalupe and Comal Rivers are the best place to rent a tube and spend the day floating through downtown New Baunfels. Its our go-to recommendation for people coming into town in the summer!
Gruene
(It's pronounced Green btw) This was the spot for all of my daddy-daughter dates in high school and also where Tristan and I went for our anniversary! Gruene is a historic German town with an iconic dance hall/concert venue. It has food, shopping, live music and some really neat Texas history!
San Antonio River Walk
The River Walk is a classic for a reason. It’s a beautiful and really fun place to walk, eat, and people-watch, and has plenty of restaurants and bars lining the water. The Alamo is right next to it too! We went for my (Kaitlyn's) birthday this past year and ate at Paesano's if you're looking for a yummy recommendation.
The Alamo
You kind of have to. The Alamo is a quick stop and an iconic piece of Texas history (literally every 7th grader takes a tour here), right in the heart of downtown. It’s easy to pair with time on the River Walk or a nearby lunch spot.
San Antonio Pearl District
The Pearl is one of our favorite areas in the city. It’s full of great restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques, all in a beautifully restored historic area. Perfect for brunch, dinner, or wandering around pretending you’re a local.
