San Antonio favorites
San Antonio can be enjoyed in so many different ways, so take care of the classic locations if it’s your first time.
The River Walk
It’s popular with tourists for a reason. This pedestrian path along the San Antonio River is packed with museums, shops, and great spots to eat, drink, and be merry. Start in the Pearl District for a less hectic experience.
Brackenridge Park
San Antonio’s largest green urban oasis offers walking trails, lawns for lounging, the San Antonio Zoo, a Japanese tea garden, a children's amusement park, and open-air theaters.
The Alamo
While a historical trip back in time to The Battle of the Alamo may seem hot and overwhelming, the nighttime ghost tour will give you a very different take on the national monument that’s been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Hit the road
Maybe you need to cool off from the desert heat, maybe you need more city life, or maybe you just want to get lost in nature. Grab your car in San Antonio, then leave the city center and parking lots behind and hop out to some of these excellent nearby locations.
Book the perfect carSan Marcos
A day at the San Marcos River inevitably means tubing. Yes, you can also kayak or swim, but the tube is king. Head northeast about an hour on Interstate 35 to get your splash on.
Houston
For all the cosmopolitan allure of big city life, make the three-hour drive east on I-10 to check out the Space Center Houston, where space shuttles still call in problems.
Big Bend National Park
It’s a hefty six-hour drive along the Rio Grande to get to this park, but the remote, mountainous wilderness along the border is stunning and magical.

The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance that is included in protection plans, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or [email protected] For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site.
