The San Antonio River Walk is a must-see for all visitors to this south-central Texas city, but there are more fun things to do, too. Take a river cruise, see the Alamo, play around at the DoSeum Children's Museum, or tour the botanical garden. San Antonio is nicely located near so many family-friendly attractions, too, including the Schlitterbahn Waterpark and even the wineries of Texas Hill Country.
