Cypress canopy portrait
The River Walk is shaded by massive bald cypress trees that arch over the water. Find a stretch where the canopy fully shades the path and take a group photo looking up.
GO RIO barge wave
GO RIO barges loop the river constantly. From the riverside path, time a group wave at a passing barge and capture the moment in a photo or short video. Bonus points if the barge waves back.
Local San Antonian tip
Convince a local San Antonio resident to share a tip about the city. Take a photo with your impromptu guide and remember the tip.

Pearl brick tower portrait
The Pearl Brewery's original red-brick tower still stands at the centre of the district. Find a flattering angle and take a group photo with the historic tower behind you.

River Walk bridge pose
The downtown River Walk is crossed by dozens of small stone bridges. Find a bridge with a great vantage point and take a group photo from the bridge looking down at the river.

Tex-Mex classic taste
