For $5, visitors can rent a hand-held player to listen to the 50-minute tour as they walk through the historic site. The tour incorporates stories about the famed battle and a narration of some of the accounts from Alamo survivors. You can hear a clip from the tour at http://www.antennaaudio.com/AlamoClip.
