San Antonio Tours
We are walking tour addicts; we often travel and add at least one walking tour to our itinerary, even in cities we often visit and know well. Given the size of San Antonio and its rich history over several centuries, I was quite surprised by how few options for walking tours I could find online, and of those few, only San Antonio Walks and Drives fit the bill — the other ... More s seemed rather mundane and kitschy. My 17-year-old son and I just spent the day with Gary— first on the amazing History Tour and then on the stunning Missions Tour. Gary’s tours were akin to crash college courses. He is well versed in the subjects and passionate about the accuracy of the information. He is a splendid storyteller, and we finished our day learning what happened, to whom, where and why. There is so much more to this dynamic city and its place in Texas, the USA and the world than I ever imagined. Spending time with Gary is an absolute must if you want to really learn about San Antonio and the history of South Texas.
Noshwalks
Our tours were about more than food: We also pointed out historical & cultural landmarks. In 1987, Prentice-Hall published The Food Lover’s Guide to the Real New York, written by me & Hungry Pedalers co-leader Mark Clifford. Hungry Pedalers folded when I went overseas (South Africa) for four years. When I returned, I wanted to resume my passion for exploring New York Cit ... More y’s neighborhoods. With new family responsibilities, I had no time for bike tours, but I did have time to walk around and write. Ergo, Noshnews. Publicity followed: It has been mentioned in The New York Times, The New Yorker and Newsday (a great half-page piece by Erica Marcus) and on WQXR. NY1’s Paul Messina did a great story on Noshnews, following me through Sunnyside.
