Never thought I’d be touring my Southside San Antonio community but, a month ago, I joined a group of travel bloggers to show them some of the places their followers should visit. With attention being continuously drawn to other parts of San Antonio, the south side is full of growth, culture, and hidden treasures. Just as I’m passionate about learning new places to share with my readers, it was fun seeing others who feel the same way share about the area I live in.
We stayed the weekend at the Embassy Suites by Hilton San Antonio Brooks Hotel where we slept like royalty and had an amazing breakfast to start off our days. You can’t stay at the Embassy Suites by Hilton San Antonio Brooks Hotel and not spend time in the salt cave; that was the first thing we did upon our arrival to the hotel.
We had a busy weekend on the go, here was our itinerary:

If you are wanting to spend some time on the south side of San Antonio, this is a great itinerary you can use as a tool to see a lot of places in the area.
Disclosure: The weekend was hosted by the South San Antonio Chamber of Commerce and Live From The Southside but, all opinions are my own.
