Transportation
Texas is big! Most things in Texas require a bit of driving to get to. Luckily we have services like Lyft and Uber to help us get a round a little easier. Check local rates to see if using a ride sharing service would be an option for your travels.
Lodging
Texas A&M University San Antonio is only a short drive from historic downtown San Antonio. The campus is on a remote piece of property on the south side of town. If you need accommodations feel free to use airbnb.com or vrbo.com, if that’s your thing. If it isn’t, there are a few hotels close by but we would recommend staying downtown so that you can experience the best of what San Antonio has to offer.
