San Antonio E-Bike Tour: Murals, Street Art and Hidden Gems

Skip the crowded River Walk and see a side of San Antonio most visitors miss. The Mural Ride is not your typical city tour. We’ll hop on e-bikes and ride through San Antonio neighborhoods filled with street art, local history, and some of our favorite hidden gems. Along the way, you’ll see more than 30 murals, many tucked down backstreets, alleys, and corners you wouldn’t find on your own. And no, we don’t ride the same route every day. Murals change. New ones go up. Old ones disappear. Neighborhoods evolve. We adjust the ride so we can show you what’s worth seeing right now. Your guide will share the stories behind the art, introduce you to some of the artists shaping San Antonio, and connect the murals to the neighborhoods and culture around them. We’ll also point out where we actually eat, drink, grab coffee, and hang out, because you're probably going to need plans after the ride. Come ride bikes, see some incredible art, and get to know San Antonio a little differently.
