Vacation Overview
Welcome to San Antonio, home of the infamous Alamo, where you spend four nights enjoying the city. Your San Antonio vacation begins with a city tour featuring the city’s historic sites and the Alamo, the most famous landmark in Texas—where Davy Crockett and Sam Houston died during the valiant attempt to hold off the Mexican army. Also, enjoy a cruise and time to explore San Antonio’s “River Walk,” an area with sidewalk cafés, shops, and restaurants. Spend the day being a cowboy at the Silver Spur Guest Ranch and take an excursion to Stonewell, where you learn about the life of Lyndon Johnson at the LBJ Ranch. Also visit a local vineyard for a tour and wine tasting. Your trip concludes with a farewell dinner, a perfect way to end a marvelous San Antonio escorted tour.

Standard Offers and Specials provided by Globus Tours

Discount for young travelers

Share the pleasure of a Globus vacation with your children and grandchildren and take advantage of a 10-percent discount on the land-only price. For eligibility, children must be under 18 years of age on the departure date and must be accompanied by an adult. On escorted vacations we don’t accept children under eight years old because we have found that they are too young to enjoy these vacations.

Pay less for your second vacation

We charge you vacation price for your first vacation in 2008, but for every additional Globus vacation you take in the same year, you pay US$35 under list. Our vacations are designed and scheduled so you can combine them almost any way you want. It’s fun to play the add-a-vacation game yourself or talk to your travel agent.

Triple room reduction

On most Globus vacations you receive a reduction when three people travel together and share the same accommodations. Triple room reductions, when available, are listed on the itinerary pages. A word of caution: Triple rooms usually are no larger than twin rooms and the third bed, if there is one, is often a rollaway put in a twin-bedded room.

Avoid the single room supplement

We do not take reservations on a “share” basis because we have found that strangers rarely enjoy sharing a room for the duration of their vacation. Avoid the single room supplement by traveling with a friend. It’s less expensive and much more fun!
