To The Pearl!

What to Expect
Set out with “T” from historic Main Plaza in the heart of downtown San Antonio for a scenic walk to the Pearl. Following the Museum Reach of the San Antonio River Walk, this route reveals a captivating blend of local history, bold public art, and the city’s ever-evolving character.
As the group heads north along the river, “T” will point out memorable public artwork, including the Maverick Tile Mural, F.I.S.H., the Grotto, and many other. “T” will bring the route to life with stories of these creative landmarks and distinctive stops, including the Lock and Dam and historic VFW Post 76.
The walk concludes at the Pearl, where “T” will lead a tour of the grounds and share the fascinating stories of this landmark destination. Once a major brewery whose roots date to the 1880s, the carefully revitalized complex now pairs preserved industrial architecture with Hotel Emma, inviting public spaces, shops, restaurants, and a lively weekend market. Home to the Culinary Institute of America’s Texas campus and a diverse community of chefs and food entrepreneurs, the Pearl has become a vibrant center of San Antonio’s culinary scene.
When the guided tour ends, the experience does not have to. Stay awhile to browse the weekend Farmers Market, discover the shops, or settle in for a memorable meal at one of the Pearl’s inviting restaurants.
