| Can anyone recommend ideas of museums/activities, etc. for me and my 15 year old son for Spring Break. Looking for places within an hour or so drive from the DC area. Thanks!! |
| Following, as we're in the same boat! I'm thinking maybe an overnight somewhere like Georgetown or Old Town Alexandria (we're in a NoVA suburb). |
| If the weather is decent and you're adventurous, I recommend a zipline canopy tour and adventure park climb in Harper's Ferry, WV (1 hour drive from Tysons Corner). They're having a BOGO 50% off deal right now so it would be $149 for 2 people. Not cheap but really really fun. This is one of both of my teens' favorite activities, even with their middle-aged mom! https://www.riverriders.com/full-day-adventure-pass |
My DS and I did that a few years ago and it was a lot of fun! OP- How about a day trip to Baltimore? Science Center, Aquarium, paddle boats in the harbor. |
| Go for a hike! |
|
Sandy Spring adventure park (MD - ziplines and more) is really fun
|

If you go to Baltimore, don't miss the "outsider" art museum. Amazing.

| I love Annapolis- cute little historic town with good shops/restaurants, you can take a cruise on the bay, etc. and it feels like you are far from D.C. |
