••• An Essential Guide •••

The heart of the Alamo City is made for walking, but just seeing the River Walk and the big amusement parks would be like going to New York and just looking at the Statue of Liberty. Smart tourists will take in the peaceful missions, visit the newest museum, Museo Alameda, check out local TV chef Melissa Guerra's shop -- and find bargains to boot.

This guide puts you in the smart camp. The basics are here, plus a frequently updated list of new essentials.

Features:
-- GPS-enabled maps that tell you how far you are from a site and how to get there -- indispensable for walking around.
-- Phone numbers and Web sites at your fingertips.
-- Slide shows of many listings to give you a sense of what you'll see.
-- Attractions conveniently sorted by type, names or cost.
