As long as you don't stroll up to the street level and stay on the river walk path , you can enjoy any of your favorite alcoholic beverages along the river !!!

Beautiful walk. I’d recommend visiting around the evening for dinner just before it gets dark so you get to see it light up as it gets darker!

Jen S

Come down early in the day and you can leisurely stroll along the river walk without the crowds.

This is a must stop in San Antonio. So much to see and experience. Take the boat tour to hear about the history and just take in the sites.

Jared Rauh

This made it well worth the trip to San Antonio. Heads up for those with toddlers: there are quite a few bridges that make it difficult to travel with a stroller. Bring it, just be ready to lift ????

Nico Parker

The River Walk is beautiful, and if you can afford a hotel that connects to it then you should definitely stay in one. There's tons of restaurants and shops all along it and there's lots of birds.

Touristy ? Absolutely. But the magic of this part of town can't be denied. There's lots to do and the people watching is fabulous. Tip: Get up early and enjoy the canal in tranquility. Magical.

Beautiful at night and great for bar hopping but SO crowded ! Makes a little scary when walking along river with no space to walk.

Don't fall in! No guardrails along the river , so as you are taking in the spectacle that is this great spot . . . keep mindful of your step (I stayed dry, by the way!).

San Antonio River Walk at 23 miles drive to the southeast of San Antonio dentist Life Smiles Dental Studio

Bee Williams

The river walk is pretty awesome you can walk from the Alamo all the way to the tower of America

Regina

Crowded and noisy . Be careful because there are no guard rails so it's easy to fall in. I once saw a guy go swimming naked in the Riverwalk. He was arrested, so if you feel hot, just get a cold drink.
