“My wife and I had a great time on the train ride while we were here visiting San Antonio. It was so nice seeing and hearing all the families and their little peanuts enjoying life. We arrived at the park in the afternoon and it was pretty crowded. So, we’re going again next weekend earlier to take walks on the trails and visit the Tea Garden.” – New York Boricua

“Cool place to visit. After we visited the Alamo we only had time to visit one of the other missions and we chose this one. Offers a free Junior Ranger program for the kids. We enjoyed walking the grounds and through the beautiful church. Numerous Park Rangers on site were very kind and answered all our questions. There was even an active archaeological dig going on in the courtyard where they were thinking they were discovering a well site.” – David R.
