The Alamo

Originally built in 1744 as a Spanish Mission, the Alamo was later abandoned, then occupied by military forces. The famous Battle of the Alamo took place in 1836, when the forces of President General Antonio López de Santa Anna laid siege to the Texian defenders, wiping them out entirely. Today, the Alamo gathers over four million tourists a year. Visitors can tour the chapel, the barracks, and the grounds, as well as view weapons, paintings, and objects from the period. The Alamo is a World Heritage Site, one of only twenty-three in the United States. Educators would be hard-pressed to find a richer destination for a school bus rental than this San Antonio, TX landmark.

Mission San José

Mission San José, now part of the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, was originally built in 1782 as a Catholic mission. The church was built from local limestone and is still in place today thanks to restoration efforts dating from 1933. Even the surrounding granary and walls have since been rebuilt. The Mission San José originally served the Coahuiltecan Indians, and was built to relieve overcrowding of the nearby Mission San Antonio de Valero. Today, visitors can book a San Antonio minibus rental and see the blending of Spanish and Coahuiltecan culture, personified by the architecture of this beautiful mission.

Natural Bridge Caverns

The Natural Bridge Caverns are located in the Texas Hill Country near the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch. Brave spelunkers can delve into this living cave and take a public tour, which ends at 180 feet below the surface. The Natural Bridge Caverns are considered living, as rainwater still travels down the limestone to the interior and slowly alters the makeup of the cave. Features of the cave include flowstone, switchback descents, and even a single living fern, the only known living plant in the cave. Feeling like taking your next party underground? Book a party bus rental in San Antonio, schedule a tour, and head to San Antonio’s largest commercial cavern.
