San Antonio is a city where centuries-old missions, lively markets, and a strong sense of place come together in unexpected ways. At the heart of it all is the Alamo, the former Spanish mission that became a symbol of Texas independence after the pivotal 1836 battle.

What sets Kaikōura apart are the extraordinary marine encounters that begin just off the shoreline.

Dusky dolphins twist and leap in large pods, and colonies of New Zealand fur seals laze on rocky outcrops along the coast.
