San Antonio is about an hour south of Austin (approx 45 minutes from our home) and most times when we have visitors we will take them down to see the famous Riverwalk and of course the Alamo. You can take a boat ride or walk along side the Riverwalk to see all the shops, restaurants, hotels and famous spots. The 30-40 minute boat ride covers 2.5 miles of the Riverwalk and cost $8.25 for general admission, $2 kids 1-5 and $6 for seniors 60 and older. They give discounts for large groups.
We usually take our guest and walk part of the Riverwalk and then dine at a restaurant sitting alongside the river.
In the evening time they have the river lit up with lights. It's a fun place to shop, dine and people watch.
During the day the kids love to see the ducks and boats passing by in the water.
And the historical Alamo is just a short walk up from the Riverwalk. It's really smaller than you think, at least that's what we thought when we first saw it. But it has pretty grounds with lots of history and info about what took place there. If you are interested in seeing these places, leave a comment!
