Where to Travel This Spring Break

A lot of expectations get bundled into a family vacation, especially spring break. “Spring break needs to feel good by day one, not day three,” said Kristin Diehl of Kristin Diehl Travel. With teenagers in the mix, “Teenagers are a special class of their own and require an added layer of entertainment,” said Maria Diego, founder of Diego Travel.

For a city break, San Antonio delivers with its 15-mile River Walk, the Alamo and four preserved missions, interactive spots like the DoSeum and Hopscotch, evening projections at the San Fernando Cathedral and hands-on science at the Witte Museum. Natural Bridge Caverns offers cave tours and an aboveground ropes course and zip rails, and downtown dining ranges from street-style tacos at La Gloria to the Pearl District’s Pullman Market.

Budget-conscious families can consider Fairfield Inn & Suites Alamo Plaza or the all-suites Hotel Contessa with a rooftop pool.
