Our tour guide Michael was exceptional from his historical knowledge of the four San Antonio Missions we visited to his superb level of customer service. I would highly recommend Michael Robinson’s private Mission Tour. Check him out!

This tour company is the best. Our guide, Michael, was extremely knowledgeable and has a true passion for sharing accurate information. We learned so much and he was so much fun, we were sad when it ended. Thank you for such a fabulous day!

Awesome Missions tour with Michael
Teresa_R, Apr 2022
I toured the missions with a girlfriend. It started with a greeting from Michael when he picked us up at our resort. He personalized the tour by answering any questions we had. His ability to make us feel comfortable and giving us his background added to the event. He was a middle school teacher and also a comedian. The combination of these jobs made him the perfect person to give us great information as well as add some comedy to the tour. He was very knowledgeable about the missions and went above and beyond with his information. He asked if we had plans for the evening and when we told him we didn’t he told us about the Pearl district and the information behind the district. It sounded like a fun place so we went and enjoyed it tremendously. If you get a chance to take this tour make sure you get Michael as your tour guide. He is a guide as well as the owner. I’d give him a 5+ star rating!
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Teresa! Thanks for your kind words and it was wonderful to show y'all the missions. I am contacting Trip Advisor now to see if they can add a "+" section for reviews;) haha! Thanks again and best to you! Michael
Great Anniversary Treat
GUADALUPE_M, Aug 2021
Expect the best from this tour. From the time we were picked up from the hotel, until the drop off time; my husband and I felt like we were touring with close friends. The Missions are spectacular, not crowded, and we’ll taken care of. Our tour guide was a young former history teacher with a strong passion for San Antonio History and facts, he has a great sense of humor and patience. We should have taken the next level tour, maybe next time.
Response from Host, Aug 2021
Get back here and do the "Hot Spots" tour! haha! I appreciate your kind words and hope to see y'all again in the future. Best!
Fantastic tour leader.

Response from Host, Aug 2021
