San Antonio - one of our favorite spring break ideas
San Antonio, Texas, is a great family travel destination with lots of things to do with kids. We recently visited San Antonio for a spring break vacation and loved our stay. There’s so much to do with families, and it's a bit of a hidden gem when it comes to spring break.
The San Antonio River Walk is a must-visit, with things for everyone to enjoy. Of course, I also recommend a visit to the Alamo - here are 4 surprising things when visiting the Alamo.
You can also visit SeaWorld San Antonio, which is open at select times in the early spring. If possible, I’d recommend staying on the River Walk - there's so much to do there, and it's easy to walk around for dinner and shopping.
