The fabulous Wednesday,
April 10, event will be a
Rolls-Royce and Bentley
Fiesta Parade! We’ll start at the
host hotel, with a police escort to downtown
San Antonio, where the Kings of
Fiesta will join us as we drive through
downtown San Antonio on our way to
Hemisfair Park. At Hemisfair, our cars
will be watched over while we enjoy the
day exploring the sites and sounds of
downtown San Antonio with professional
tour guides to lead the way.

Downtown
San Antonio
Our first destination will be the world
famous San Antonio River Walk where
we will board river barges for a
private tour. After disembarking the
barges, we will walk a short distance
to tour The Alamo, the mission where in
March of 1836 the historic battle took
place in the War of Independence from
Mexico.
Tour the
Famous Alamo
and the
Historic
Menger
Hotel
After our tour, we will walk across the
street to the Menger Hotel (completed
in 1858) where Teddy Roosevelt formed
his Rough Riders in the Menger bar. The
Menger is where we will eat a delicious
lunch while taking in the historic, Victorian
beauty of the hotel and bar.
