Looking for spring break ideas within a reasonable driving distance. Kids are 10-15. Don't want to spend too much. What are some good ideas for 3-4 days in mid April? We have already done the Williamsburg area in the past. Thank you. |

OBX in April? Only if you like wind and rain in the 30s-50s.
We have booked Bora Bora months ago. Tchüss! |
NYC

But take the Acela. |
Hershey/Lancaster |
NYC - stay in Jersey city for reasonable hotels,it’s 2 stops on the path train |
Not necessary with kids- its not as nice as it used to be anyway. |
Pittsburgh
Niagara Falls Norfolk/Virginia Beach Philly French Canada |
All of these are super rough. How about London or Berlin? |
Please post the driving directions. |
This is OP. That's a bit too costly for me. just looking for a quick getaway. |
Interested in Niagara. How many days do you think you need there. Also, any good hotels near Philly, besides all the museums and independence hall type stuff, anything additional that isn't obvious? |
We did a 5-day (4 night) trip for Niagara… but we slept in a different place each night. We also tacked on Toronto and did some stuff in Buffalo & Pittsburgh on the way home. It was chilly but very uncrowded, fun, and inexpensive. Philly: Penn Museum, art museum, Independence Seaport Museum, USS New Jersey battleship, Franklin Institute, historical stuff, Muetter Museum, US Mint. |
There’s another thread on Philly.
