There are a multitude of walking and ghost tours to choose from in San Antonio. Most of which are led by costumed guides, reciting scripts while herding 30 people like so many cattle through ubiquitous franchises. I offer an alternative. A boutique, personalized, historical bar tour. Imagine having an old friend who has spent their entire professional life researching their home show you around all washed down with craft cocktails. My name is Emzy. I've been researching and guiding guests around my hometown professionally for twenty plus years. Most over them washed down with craft cocktails, it's been a blessed life. While I have had many magical moments with guests over the years, I've also spent hundreds of hours in the archives and libraries for proof of the history I share on tour. I believe that passion shows. I invite you to join me for an evening of drinks and conversation of all things history in two of the most storied bars in Texas. Join me and Drink up the history!

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this history pub tour?

A: The tour is primarily for adults since it involves craft cocktails, but minors can join if accompanied by an adult. Just make sure they’re okay with the bar environment. Emzy is pretty accommodating, so I’d recommend checking with him directly if you’re uncertain.

Q: What do you wear to this tour? Is it casual or more dressy?

A: I’d say go with smart casual! The bars are pretty relaxed, so you don’t need to be super dressy, but you might want to avoid flip-flops. Emzy himself is usually pretty laid-back, just like the vibe of the tour. I wore jeans and a nice top and felt perfect!

Q: What happens if the weather is bad? Can we reschedule?

A: If it looks like rain, Emzy is usually pretty flexible about rescheduling. He really wants everyone to enjoy the experience! Just reach out to him as soon as you know so you can find a new date. Most of the tour is indoors anyway, but it’s nice to walk between the bars.

Thinking about gifting the Private History Pub Tour in San Antonio!

Hey everyone! I’m considering getting the Private History Pub Tour for my dad’s birthday. He loves history and craft cocktails! I read that Emzy is super knowledgeable, and the tour goes to the Buckhorn Saloon and Texas Ranger Museum, which he’d love. Do you think it’s worth it? Any tips on making it a special experience?

Just did the history pub tour, and it was awesome!

Wow, I just got back from the Private History Pub Tour with Emzy, and it totally exceeded my expectations! We learned so much about San Antonio’s history while enjoying some delicious cocktails at the Buckhorn Saloon. Emzy’s passion really shines through! Highly recommend it for anyone looking for something unique.
