[.uk] 147 Fun Things to Do in San Antonio (ISBN 0965246493)

Not enough info to stand alone:
On a recent trip to San Antonio, I brought this book along with another guide. Unfortunately, I found that I relied on the other book quite a bit more because "147 Fun Things to Do in San Antonio" wasn't quite up to date and didn't contain enough information to stand alone as a guide. Also, the maps were not detailed enough to find things. Frankly, it did not contain any info that was not in the more complete guide and therefore was not of much use. I'm guessing that if you were already familiar with San Antonio, this slim volume might be fine as a reminder of what attractions are available, but don't try to use it as your primary guide if you are a visitor.

Good overall information but somewhat outdated:
147 Fun Things to Do in San Antonio is a great source of information on things to do while in the Alamo City for both visitors and locals. While the author has also included many fun things to see and do in areas outside San Antonio (Bandera and New Braunfels) some of the recommendations in the book are just plain horrible (Kiddie Park, Hard Rock Cafe, etc.) Additionally, the restaurant information, while fairly good, is somewhat dated, specially considering the fact that the San Antonio restaurant scene is in a perpetual state of change and growth. Perhaps the author should have limited the options to 100, instead of pushing it to 147. I gave the book three stars because I do think that prospective readers will find many off-the-beaten-path activities that are fun to both adults and kids.
