The river walk seems more for the adult crowd. It's a place to eat, drink and relax. There is nothing for children to do and no ramps for strollers.You should know the hotels are expensive and eating and drinking on the river isn't cheep. If you can handle all that it's the most fun, most romantic and beautiful places my husband and I have been. Part of the experience is staying at a hotel as close to, or on the river as you can. We didn't notice the river being dirty with trash, actually it was very clean and well groomed for as many people that are there. Everyone was very friendly and there is a lot of history to be seen in San Antonio. Austin is about an hour and twenty minutes drive away with the famous 6th street to party on. Six Flags is maybe twenty minutes away from the riverwalk. If you do rent a car they are very proud of there parking, fifteen dollars a day. We heard of one for seven dollars a day but never found it. If you like to eat drink and be merry the river walk is the place to go, just take lots of money.
