Remember the Alamo?
Not a problem–I can help because I’m still dreaming about it.
I was lucky enough to hitch onto a press trip to San Antonio, Texas recently, as Cool Mom Picks aims to cover more fun and interesting travel options and family vacation destinations by popular request, and boy am I glad I did. With international taxes and fuel surcharges making overseas trips more prohibitive, it’s great to know that there are so many cool things to do right in our own borders.
I admit that San Antonio isn’t the first place I necessarily think of when I’m considering booking a trip. But as it turns out, whether you’re traveling with kids or taking a much-needed kid-free trip, San Antonio has a lot to offer.
Getting Around San Antonio
I’m going to cut right to the chase and tell you my very favorite thing about San Antonio: You don’t need a car for 95% of the awesome stuff.
Bonus when you’re traveling with kids: The downtown area is unbelievably safe and easily traversed, whether you’re on your feet with a stroller, taking a bus or trolley, floating on a river taxi, or enjoying a Cinderella-esque ride in a horse-drawn carriage lit with sparkling lights.
The San Antonio River ripples right through the downtown area alongside dozens of hotels, all within walking distance of
the Alamo, museums, rides, shopping, hiking trails, art installations, and restaurants. You can even take a boat tour to learn more — or lure your kids to sleep.
That means that as long as your hotel has an airport shuttle, you don’t have to fiddle with a rental car and car seats and the GPS with a snotty voice telling you to turn left into a field full of steers–which is my biggest traveling fear.
But that also means you have to go when it’s warm, because when winter winds rip between the tall buildings, it’s like being in a freezing wind tunnel. Anything after March should be fine– they kept telling us, “It never gets this cold!” But for a couple of nights… boy, it was.
San Antonio Attractions
San Antonio seriously has something for everyone and would make a great multi-generational trip. There’s history galore, from the beautiful missions to the beloved Alamo, which is right smack in the middle of downtown, across from the helpful Convention and Visitors Bureau and the kitschy museums.
Now I am talking talking serious, full-tourist, more-for-kids-than-you kitsch: think Ripley’s Believe It or Not Odditorium of two-headed calves, Guinness World Records, and Louis Toussaud’s Wax Works, which got super creepy in the religious, historic, and fairy tale parts after the celebrity section. (It ain’t Madam Toussaud’s, but they’ve got a great Bumblebee Transformer that has convinced my children I’m cool, as you can see.)
Campy stuff aside, there is a San Antonio Children’s Museum, but I wasn’t that impressed; seemed like they were
missing a lot of parts and toys. The grocery play station should have food, right? There are also a host of downtown museums and if you grab a San Antonio city pass, they’re a lot more affordable. It can be a fun way to pass the time indoors.
The Best of the Attractions in San Antonion (imho)
If you want to let the kids run wild at the San Antonio Zoo or Botanical Gardens, there are quite a few sightseeing busses just for tourists that will get you to all of the sights for $4 a day per adult. (Update 2019: The busses start around $28 for adults now, with discounts for multiple day passes.)
The San Antonio Zoo has a great kids’ area where you can pretend to be a prairie dog or worm, and we got to see all the big animals. The reptile house had more venomous snakes than I’ve ever seen and an entire family of Komodo dragons.
The San Antonio Botanical Garden is beautiful with lots of room to run–but there is nothing specifically for kids. You’ll know whether yours are the types who appreciate nature or not.
The Witte Museum, on the other hand, is surprisingly kid-centric, especially when you get out back to the HEB Science Treehouse, Mt. Witte climbing wall, and SkyCycle.
If you like heights, the Tower of the Americas can take you up 750 feet for a beautiful view of San Antonio, and your
ticket price includes a hilarious 4-D film experience that will have
your little ones squealing about bull snot for days.
I was thrilled to get to hit Sea World (yes, there’s one in Texas) which was utterly phenomenal. It’s
the one attraction that requires a car, but if you’ve got teens who love roller coasters, kids who dig whales, or tiny tots that will freak when they get to hug the real Grover at the new Sesame Street Bay of Play, make sure to plan it into your trip.
(Update: We don’t recommend going to Sea World.)
Also keep in mind that just walking around San Antonio can be a cool cultural experience for kids, considering everyone in town is bilingual with English and Spanish. So even a trip to the drugstore can be fun and interesting for little ones.
Eating. Oh, the Eating! : San Antonio Restaurants
San Antonio restaurants definitely spoiled my stomach. Zagat has a full 713 listings for San Antonio, so believe me, this is an eating mecca.
Families will love breakfast at the historic Guenther House, where the cinnamon rolls were approximately the size of my head (but tasted much better). If mom and dad can manage to get away alone, I recommend a romantic dinner at the Little Rhein Steak House (cake seen above) which has a beautiful outdoor terrace overlooking the San Antonio
River. The night we dined there, live music was playing across the river and they offered us ponchos to ward off the chill. I’ve also read good things about Rosario’s, which is near the Alamo and listed as one of the top 50 restaurants in the US.
But again, wherever you eat, you don’t have to drive there. So bring on the margaritas! Especially at swanky Q Restaurant, which is located in the Hyatt Regency, right on the river.
The Hotels of San Antonio
Downtown San Antonio has loads of hotels at a wide range of prices. If you’re into the haunted/historic thing where they
still use brass keys, try the Alamo-adjacent Menger Hotel or the Fairmount, which has a dog concierge named Luke– yes, an actual yellow Lab — and is across the courtyard from the best Italian food I’ve ever had at Tre Trattoria. And they have all the standards, such as the Hyatt and the Marriott, where I stayed.
The Marriott Rivercenter was good to me, with bath products from the Body Shop and a choice of colors when I lost my toothbrush. It’s also connected to a mall, which can be handy if you forget your swimsuit or need a trip to the
Disney Store to placate a tiny tired traveler. And there’s a Starbucks in the lobby, too. Another plus: The Marriott is so tall that you’ll always be able to find it, even at night.
Travel Tips for San Antonio You Might Not See Everywhere
If you can avoid a layover at the Houston Airport, by all means do. It was a lot like someone’s first day at Hogwarts, with changing gates and late flights and bad food and early flights and customer service lines so
long that people missed their flights before they could find their luggage. I’d also counsel you to check the San Antonio weather first, because I don’t think it would be much fun in the cold.
You can check the San Antonio Visitors Bureau website for special event information to plan your visit at just the right time, including the San Antonio Spurs basketball season between January and April, and the amazing Luminaria art festival in April.
I also suggest if you’ve got young kids, bring a stroller that can maneuver up and down a couple of steps without collapsing, since there are occasional stairs when you’re hoofing it.
My other personal favorite tip: instead of the stroller, bring a great buckle baby carrier like the FreeHand. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did.
If you’re looking for a fun and, more importantly, easy travel destination for the whole family, San Antonio really can be a great way to go. Check out the San Antonio travel deals right here for some cool passes that will get you into lots of the attractions mentioned above, and vit VisitSanAntonio.com or call toll free 1-800-447-3372 for help planning a trip.
Thank you to the San Antonio Convention Bureau for including us on this press trip, and covering Delilah’s expenses. Margaritas on her next time. Opinions are entirely her own, as always.
What a great prize. I think the River Walk looks amazing. The kids would love it.
I’ve always wanted to visit the River Walk
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2317
We love San Antonio with the kids! They love Sea World – https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2027
The Morgan Sounds like a great place to go with my 2 little ones!
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2744
We definitely go see the River Walk. https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx My friends went to cheer on our college football team for the Alamo Bowl and said they had so much fun and how pretty the river walk was – I’d have to go check that out since I was the only one that couldn’t go.
This IMAX show of the battle at the Alamo would thrill my elementary school aged kids!
https://www.imax-sa.com/
Thanks!
I would love to go to Sea World. When I was younger, my family would vacation to San Antonio, but never got the opportunity to go. I would love to take my kids one day!
I would love to go back to San Antonio! I visited there very briefly when I was 18, and I know that there is so much more to do and see. I’d love to revisit Enchanted Rock! It’s a beautiful place to visit.
https://visitsanantonio.com/visitors/shop/shopping-details/index.aspx?id=413

https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2312
I love learning the history of the places we visit. Eating local foods, meeting and speaking with the local people.
I’ve never been to San Antonio, but have heard such great things. I’d love to go to the Riverwalk (https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx)!

My 3 boyz would absolutely LOVE Kiddie Park! https://www.kiddiepark.com/
I would be most excited about going to Sea World! My son’s two favorite toys right now are his whale and walrus figurines so I know he would be thrilled to see the real thing. 🙂 I looked at Sea World’s website and even found an early morning day camp that they offer for toddlers!

https://www.seaworld.org/adventure-camps/swt/day/camps/stroller-club.htm
I would love to take the family to see the Alamo. That would be the most intriguing place for me to see on the trip. Though I know my kids would love to visit the theme parks.
I would love to walk the Riverwalk. After a long Michigan winter, the loveliness of the water and the green would be very very welcome. https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx
I want to do a tour of all of the Missions! Including the baseball team… 🙂

I would love to visit the River Walk.
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2317
We’re born and bred Texans and have never taken our kids to SA! It was one of my family’s (and my husband’s) favorite vacation spots when I was growing up and I just can’t wait to show it to my children. I would love to hit Sea World and the Mercado along with the Alamo (of course)!
I would absolutely LOVE to take my kids to San Antonio. My 8 year old daughter just loves history and the Alamo. I would most like to see Sea World because all of my kids would really enjoy that 🙂 Thanks for such a great opportunity 🙂
The kids would probably say Sea World but River Walk looks great for me!
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/alamo/history.html
is it totally cheesy to say i’d want to see the alamo? it’s such an american icon!
I would absolutely love to win this prize. I have family in SA that I haven’t seen in a while as air travel is so costly now and I miss them dearly! I would love to take a sunset river cruise on the River Walk with my hubby!! https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx
There are so many amazing places to visit! I think that the Alamo would be a family favorite. Here’s the link! https://visitsanantonio.com/alamo/
I’d love to visit the Alamo https://visitsanantonio.com/alamo/ and take the kids there. I think it would be education and fun for them.
My daughter would love Sea World – not to mention her Dad and I. This would be one of our first stops!

Thank you!!

https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2027
Since it’s starting to warm up, I’d love to visit the Schlitterbahn Water Park. https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2025
Yummy – Food! My daughters are tolerant of large amounts of spice, and I think even they would enjoy it.
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/festivals-events/Culinaria/index.aspx
If we couldn’t do the trip at that time of year, though, we would enjoy the ghost tour:
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2004
A stroll along the River Walk & stopping for food/shopping looks awesome!
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx
The Alamo Riverwalk looks like a lot of fun.
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/explore-the-river-walk/index.aspx
The Transportation Museum sounds like it’s worth checking out:
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2148
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2027 — My son would never forgive me if I said anything but Seaworld. Both my kids think anything having to do with fish or the ocean is fantastic.
I went to San Antonio many years ago, before I had kids or even met my husband. I loved it and wished I could have stayed longer. Fabulous food, and everyone I met was unfailingly kind.
What an amazing trip! My whole family would love it!!
Would love to visit the kiddie park!!
https://visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2696
I went to SA with my dad when I was in like 5th grade. I remember the RiverWalk https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx and have dreamed of taking my 5 boys there someday. Can’t wait!
The Alamo! Great history! https://visitsanantonio.com/alamo/
I would love to visit San Antonio again. I went once when I was in 8th grade. I would most look forward to Sea World with my 18 month-old daughter. She would love it!
https://visitsanantonio.com/visitors/save/theme-parks/details/index.aspx?itemid=404
I hate to be so unoriginal, but we’ve never been to SA and would love to visit…(wait for it)…THE RIVER WALK!
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx
We’d definitely want to take the kids to the Alamo and all the museums, but I know they’re favorite would end up being Sea World and Six Flags https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/theme-parks/index.aspx
I LOVE San Antonio! One of the first things I would do is go to Casa Rio and have a margarita on the River Walk.https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/eat/restaurant-details/index.aspx?id=1304 I can taste the salt and lime already!
I just got done reading your article and loved it. I am looking forward to the restaurants since I went to culinary school…. but the River walk https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx is especially something I am looking forward to… and since I am Irish, I am going to hope the luck o’ the Irish is on my side! Thank you for such a great contest!

I love history, so would love to visit the Alamo. I’ve never been to Texas!
https://visitsanantonio.com/alamo/
I would love to visit many of the historic missions and the Alamo! https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/plan/featured-stories/san-antonio-missions/index.aspx
My husband and I visited Sea World in San Antonio before we had kids, and we had a great time. I would love to take the kids there now.
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2027
The food is definitely the best part of San Antonio – I’d plan a girls’ weekend with my mom and sisters that might include a cooking class at the Culinary Institute, as well as eating lots of yummy Mexican food!
https://visitsanantonio.com/visitors/eat/index.aspx
The River Walk just sounds too relaxing and fun-filled to pass up.
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx
Would love to take my baby Kenzie to Sesame Street Bay of Play https://www.seaworld.com/sanantonio/
I’ve always wanted to see the River Walk!
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx
We’d love to win! We would love to go to Seaworld! My husband and son have never been!
The Fiesta San Antonia festival looks like one of those INCREDIBLE cross-cultural experiences.
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/festivals-events/fiesta/index.aspx
BTW, the San Antonio Convention Bureau may not want to brag about this but we thought it was very cool that Austin was ONLY like an hour away and there is an incredible waterpark in between in New Braufels
https://www.schlitterbahn.com/nb/
and outlet shopping if that is your thing. If you wanted to explore nature with a car there are excellent tubing opportunities on the river!
https://visitsanantonio.com/alamo/
Basement of the Alamo anyone? Would love to go and check it out!
I always wanted to go to Texas!! I think my boys would LOVE Sea World! It looks like so much fun. I can’t believe all the fun things there are to do in San Antonio.
The safari sounds wonderful! https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2012
The Zoo of course!!
San Antonio is our favorite place. Things not mentioned here are the wonderful things that are just outside of town like the Natural Bridge Caverns in New Braunfells (need a car for that one) but worth the trip.
It is unfortunate that the contest is only US as it is our dream to go back to San Antonio and we live in Canada.
Would love to take my daughter to see the River Walk! https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/the-river-walk/index.aspx
Great prize. My husband and I have always wanted to see the Almo and to be able to take the kids even better. Thanks for the chance.
Like I said we’d like to see the Almo, but I know the kids would LOVE SeeWorld since we don’t have anything like that here in Minnesota!
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2027
What an AWESOME giveaway! Of everything listed, the Kiddie Park looks like something everyone in my family would enjoy, and be low-key enough at the same time: https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/plan/featured-stories/old-fashioned-family-fun-in-san-antonio/index.aspx
Thanks,

I haven’t been to San Antonio since my mom was life-flighted there during a trip to Cancun. She received such great medical care that my dad and i were able to go enjoy the river walk while she rested. I would love to bring my children to San Antonio to see SeaWorld.
We’d do Sea World for sure – https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2027 – my kids can’t get enough of Shamu, and it’s been almost 2 years since we’ve seen him! Quite an impression he made.
Love Texas! Hubby and I visited the Alamo 8 yrs ago, but would love to go back with the kids.
Would love to time the trip around Noche del Rio festival – https://www.alamo-kiwanis.org/FiestaNoche.html
The Alamo, for sure. My boys are totally into battles. https://www.visitsanantonio.com/alamo/

I’d love to see artpace in San Antonio! https://www.artpace.org/
We lived in Dallas for 10 years and often traveled south to Austin, San Antonio, and even Corpus Christi.
For us the BEST Tex-Mex food (yes we really miss it) is at https://www.chuys.com/ …they have 2 locations in San Antonio. This place has really great food and it works very well for kids. Oh, and don’t forget to order the Sopapillas for desert!
I’ve been to San Antonio once and it was fabulous! Would love to take our kids there! My husband and I love the River Walk, but I think the kids would love Sea World the most! https://www.seaworld.com/
San Antonio is such a great city. Schlitterbahn Water Park is a great water park. We had so much fun when I went there several years ago.
https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2025
I love Texas! What a great giveaway. I would love to visit Sea World. I haven’t been in like 20 years and didn’t even realize San Antonia had one. Here’s the link: https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/attraction-details/index.aspx?id=2027
I have longed for a trip to “The Riverwalk” it seems like such a romantic place to visit – my husband and I have never head a honeymoon and think this would be a fantastic place.

Boy, oh, boy do we need a vacation! I love the idea of taking our kids to Kidde Park. https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/plan/featured-stories/old-fashioned-family-fun-in-san-antonio/index.aspx There was something similar here in our hometown, but it closed last summer. I’m a sucker for a carousel.
There is so much I would want to do, but we are a geeky family and would most definetely want to catch all the historic landmarks featured on the site. The Alamo and San Fernando Cathedral are my 2 top picks. My kids think Tower of the Americas would be a fun place to dine! https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/history-heritage/historic-landmarks/index.aspx

The river walk sounds so neat. It seems much more young family friendly and more interesting than hiking. I think my daughter would love it. https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/play/explore-the-river-walk/index.aspx
This is right up my alley, I am from Texas but live in Florida now, my husband and I honeymooned in San Antonio, a second honeymoon to celebrate 11 years of wedded bliss would be amazing 🙂 No visit to San Antonio is complete without a meal at Mi Tierra, the best TEX-MEX!! https://www.visitsanantonio.com/visitors/eat/restaurant-details/index.aspx?id=1573
