Blogs about adventurous family travel

The global wizards.

We write the article, so I guess we can be on the list as well ;-)? We are Jurgen, Heleen, Yuna (2010), and Hanne (2011), also known as The Global Wizards Family.

As a full-time travel family, we are passionate about photography and creating content to inspire all of you with our Instagram and this blog.

Our home country is Belgium, which we love. But traveling has been part of our lives since the beginning of our relationship and we didn’t stop when we got kids. Our girls have been traveling since they were babies.

Over the past years, we have been all over the world, partly living the van life with our old VW bus. While traveling, we also work online and homeschool the kids.

Our blog is all about sharing our experiences, tips, and passions. We’re experts in adventurous family travel and photography. We write about the destinations we visit, give you advice on travel in general, photography, working while traveling, traveling on a budget and so much more.

5 lost together

We are a Canadian family of 5 that blogs about our travels at 5 Lost Together. Making travel a priority in our lives, we believe there is no one right way to travel with kids.

We specialize in independent, budget adventure travel around the world . We have taken our kids to go trekking in Nepal, chasing Komodo dragons in Indonesia, road-tripping across the Australian Outback, riding camels through India, lived on a sailboat in the Bahamas for 4-months, and more.

Travel Babbo

I’m Eric and have been blogging for eight years about adventurous family travel . I’ve taken my kids to 62 countries and all 7 continents and am always searching for the coolest, most unique kid-friendly activities around the world. Every year each of my three kids (12, 14, and 16) gets to choose any destination in the world for a one-on-one trip with me.

World Travel Family

My name is Alyson and I was the original creator of the world travel family website but these days my husband and son work for me and help with some writing and videography too. The tech stuff is still all me but I’m training them up.

Our site was born 8 years ago when we decided to take the kids traveling as a vital part of their education. We were on the road for 6 full years then hit a wall and had to go back to sort out house problems. My advice to anyone doing this is to get rid of your house and all your stuff, it’s a milestone you don’t need.

Our site is a travel resource covering 50 or so countries , it continues to expand. Where have we been, well, everywhere? We’ve crossed Europe many times, lived in Vietnam, Romania, London, and Australia, and have taken the kids to Everest Base Camp, Tibet, and Bhutan.

Our family loves cultures, food, wildlife, and people, not so much hotels and beaches. We cover the travel we love and we don’t travel on sponsorship, so we can keep it real and tell you honestly what we liked and disliked. Our website is our business and our freedom. It has changed our lives and given us so much. We hope you find it useful.

Travelynn Family

This family of four from the UK pushes the boundaries of family travel and believes that adventure should not wait until the kids are older. They have trekked the Himalayas, lived in India, traversed Africa in a Land Rover with roof tents, and are spending 4 months of 2022 slow-traveling through Morocco after deregistering their boys (age 7 and 8) from school. They also take on some pretty fun European road trips in their Mazda Bongo camper at every available opportunity.

Jenny and her husband both work remotely, which enables the family the freedom to travel when they want. However, they strive for a balance between long-term travels and basing themselves in the UK, as their boys love school. So when they’re not adventuring off the beaten track, you’ll find them hiking in the hills of the Peak District National Park where they live.

If you want to take your kids to Africa or Asia or love an epic road trip, TraveLynn Family is definitely one to follow.

Our Overseas Adventures

We’re a Canadian family of four who loves to travel. Our favorite adventures are the ones that take us to off-the-beaten-path locations. We love it when family and friends have to pull out a map to know where we’re going.

We’ve traveled to over 50 countries together, including Togo, Benin, and Burkina Faso in West Africa and the Guyanas in South America. Our long-standing favorite country though is Vietnam (we really love SE Asia!).

Our most recent adventure has been converting our Land Rover Defender into an overland vehicle. We plan to spend the next decade driving around the world.

Our family blogs about our adventures and is packed full of practical advice, budget information, and real-life tips for visiting the places we’ve traveled to.

Where is the world

We’re a Canadian family of four who loves to travel. Our favorite adventures are the ones that take us to off-the-beaten-path locations , and we love it, even more, when family and friends have to pull out a map to know where we’re going.

We’ve traveled to nearly 50 countries together, including Togo, Benin, and Burkina Faso in West Africa and the Guyanas in South America. Our long-standing favorite country though is Vietnam (we really love SE Asia!).

Our family blog’s a bit about our adventures and is packed full of practical advice, budget information, and real-life, tested by our tips for visiting the places we’ve traveled to.

An epic education

The website An Epic Education is designed to provide all the resources you need to plan an incredible family trip. Living abroad since 1997, blogger Jason Andrew Jenkins has been traveling with his kids since they were babies.

In 2013, he and his wife Keiko left their desk jobs in Tokyo, pulled the kids out of school, and started traveling full-time as a family. For the following six years, they lived in Taiwan, Malaysia, Spain, and Mexico, experimenting with homeschooling and local schools along the way.

In August 2019 they returned to Japan so their kids could reconnect with the country of their birth. They still travel as often as possible and are constantly planning the next trip.

Adventure and sunshine

Adventure and Sunshine are a family of 4 exploring the world together. Collectively we have traveled to 56 countries on 6 continents, 31 of these with our children. We are passionate about independent adventure travel, slightly obsessed with getting outdoors and love sharing practical advice on how to travel the world with kids .

On our family travel blog, we talk about how to plan a family gap year, the best road trips, RV travel, and the best travel destinations with kids. Because having kids doesn’t have to mean the end of adventure travel.

Mum on the move

Mum on the Move is a family travel blog, featuring family-friendly travel tips, reviews, inspiration, and destination information from around the world , with a strong focus on Asia and Australia.

At Mum on the Move, we feel strongly that having kids doesn’t have to stop you from engaging in adventurous and culturally interesting activities. Our kids have been bamboo rafting in China, snorkeling in Indonesia, kayaking with fireflies in the Philippines, climbing temples in Myanmar, and walking the canopy walkways in Borneo, on top of many more fun family adventures.

The Wandering Daughter

Astrid and her family have been travelling full-time since 2018. So far, their travels have taken them to the United States, Mexico, Costa Rica, Italy, France, and Indonesia.

The Jetsetting Family blog provides travel tips from Rodrigo, Jessica, Santiago, and Nora who have been traveling the world full time for almost 2 years. Their travels have taken them to Southeast Asia, North America, South America, Europe, and the Middle East.

Their blog also contains all 34 episodes of The Jetsetting Family Travel Podcast, which consists of travel tips, interviews with other traveling families, and ways to make travel more of a priority in life. Each episode is jam-packed with info and a great way to get family travel content on the go!

Full Suitcase

Jurga Rubinovaite is a mom of three and the founder of one of the world’s leading family travel blogs, Full Suitcase. Originally from Lithuania, she now lives in Belgium and takes every opportunity to escape the daily routine and travel with her family.

Full Suitcase is a travel blog for families who want to show their kids the world beyond beaches and theme parks . We travel to some of the world’s most exciting destinations with our three boys and share our first-hand experiences and practical tips with our readers.

Our kids have traveled ever since they were little and have been all over the world – from South Africa and Namibia in the South to Iceland and Greenland in the North, and from Australia in the East to the United States in the West….

We love seeing the world through their eyes and creating amazing memories together with them.

Small kids’ family travel blogs

Baby can travel – family can travel.

We are a family of 4 from Western Canada. We took our first trip with our firstborn when she was 3 months old from Canada to Barcelona. At the time there was very little information online about traveling with babies, aside from general tips on flying.

Traveling with a baby for the first time, and making plenty of mistakes along the way, was the inspiration for Baby Can Travel. Through our Baby Can Travel blog we hope to inspire other parents to keep traveling with babies and toddlers, plus provide information and advice on where to travel and all the best baby/toddler travel gear .

Since that first trip with our daughter, we’ve continued to travel with both our kids multiple times a year. We’ve experienced so many incredible things with them, from chasing waterfalls in Iceland to eating all the mango sticky rice we could get our hands on in Thailand. Our kids have hiked in some of the most beautiful places on earth. We continue to share all our travel adventures on our second blog Family Can Travel .

Read more on Baby Can Travel and Family Can Travel .

Our next adventure

Hi, we’re the Ishmaels! Matt, Laura, Evelyn, and Sophie. We’re a pretty typical American family, living in Omaha, Nebraska; that is, aside from our serious case of wanderlust. After realizing most of our best family moments have come while traveling, we’ve committed to a life of experiences over things, traveling in any spare moment we can find!

We like to travel slowly, really taking in one city at a time, so we still have a lot to conquer on our bucket list! So far our favorites have been Lisbon, Tulum, Florence, and Charleston (quite the eclectic bunch!).

We’ve traveled with babies, toddlers, and now two kids in tow, and through the entire process have learned how to stretch our dollars further, traveling more and spending less than ever before.

We love to share it all on our family travel blog, Our Next Adventure, where you’ll find family-friendly itineraries, packing lists, tips for traveling with babies and toddlers, plus tons of free printable travel planning resources to help keep you organized!

Our goal is to show other families that traveling with kids is not so hard. Or, at the very least, it’s worth the extra effort for the rewards on the other side!

Flip Flop Globetrotters

We started our family travel blog Flip Flop Globetrotters in 2015 to document our travels, share our travel experiences and inspire other families to travel with their young kids .

After 10 months of traveling around South East Asia when our son was a toddler, we now have a home base in the Netherlands.

We love to travel with our son and we love to write about it! Our dream is to travel full-time again, but for now, we travel whenever we can. Our most recent trips brought us to Mexico and Egypt.

The Funemployed Family

We’re Ben, Kelly, Liesel, and Mason! We call ourselves The FUNemployed Family. Here’s how it started!

In 2018, we realized the “American Dream” wasn’t for us. We had successful careers but we weren’t fulfilled by working our life away to be able to afford the things we THOUGHT we needed as a family. Due to the stress and work burnout we didn’t end up spending much quality time together as a family. It was neither healthy nor sustainable. We decided to sell our home and most of our belongings and hit the “reset button” on life.

Over the next two years, we full-time traveled around the world to 28 countries taking back all the lost time, bonding with our daughter, and planning our future. We welcomed Mason to the travel crew in 2020 and since then have moved into remote careers in financial consulting and brand content creation. We also own/operate two Airbnbs in addition to managing our family, lifestyle, and travel blog, Instagram, and TikTok channels.

We hope that we can inspire other families to think outside the box, push back on society’s “norms” and truly live the life you want . We’ve grown so much as a family and experienced more than we ever thought possible, and it’s all thanks to making that 1st decision to change our lives.

Big family travel blogs

Our globetrotters.

The Globetrotters are a British/Australian family of 5 living in the United Arab Emirates. Being long-term expats, they have used their Middle East posting to explore extensively the region, and their UAE airport hub for traveling around the world .

Their favorite holiday spots have included Cambodia, Oman, and Jordan, though Thailand and Bali are also family favorites for relaxing beach breaks.

Globetotting

Globetotting is a blog for families that love to travel run by Katja with lots of support from her husband Nick and three kids Alfie, Tess, and Sam. Katja started Globetotting when she was living in New Delhi and quickly realized there was a lack of information available for parents like her who wanted to explore India as a family.

What started as a family travel blog focused on India and south-east Asia has quickly grown to cover everywhere from Mongolia and Mexico to Guatemala, Finland, the UK, and more. A travel writer by trade, Katja brings her years of travel experience to her blog – and her travels – and is constantly searching for that next family adventure.

Wanderlust Storytellers

Wanderlust Storytellers family travel blog follows the adventures of the five enthusiastic travelers in the Ejmont family. The blog focuses on family travel destinations, tips for traveling with kids of all ages as well as all-important kids travel gear .

Their family travel adventures take them all over the world. They venture out from the kangaroo country of Australia, South Africa’s national parks, and Namibia’s deserts to Italian, French, and Polish old towns, and from bustling cities of Japan to remote tropical islands of Fiji, Vanuatu, and Thailand.

If you are after unique experiences that the whole family can enjoy then these guys are certainly the ones to follow.

Our 3 kids v the world

I’m Sally, the founder of our3kidsvtheworld, a family travel blog focusing on travel for larger families with a splash of luxury thrown in for good measure , who doesn’t love a bit of luxury!

We are Australian based and we travel during school holidays. We have traveled extensively in Asia but have also explored New Zealand, the USA, and the Caribbean. Our heart definitely lies in South East Asia.

We run two Facebook Groups for people interested in traveling in Asia, these are South East Asia Travel Planning and Hong Kong and China Travel Planning, we talk about everything related to travel in these areas, and of course, I love it when members share their photos.

Traveling with a larger family can be challenging as most hotels really only focus on the nuclear family of mum, dad and 2 kids. This is hardly the standard anymore and families come in all shapes and sizes and we’re here to show you that travel can be for all family sizes.

Go Live Young

Go Live Young is a family of five, with three boys aged 10, 12, and 14, who have a passion for travel and adventure. They’ve recently returned from a nine-month round the world trip, an adventure of a lifetime. Now living back in South Wales in the UK, and traveling as much as the school holidays will allow.

Their adventures include trekking with Komodo Dragons, road tripping around New Zealand, swimming with sharks in South Africa, and hiking 4444 steps in Norway!

Travel for Go Live Young is all about having an adventure as a family, creating lifelong memories by doing unforgettable things, and seeing the world .

World of travels with kids

World of Travels with Kids is a family travel blog that shares our love for this amazing planet and its people . We’re a multi-cultural family, the kids are half Nicaraguan, half Australian; with one born in Peru when we lived there.

We share honestly about places we’ve been and know well; especially Western Australia where we live, and Peru where we spend a lot of time.

Having recently lost our partner/father we’re learning to live again and to solo parent as well. In short, we share stories of love, connection, and adventures, as we travel the world to our own, unique rhythm.

Family Travel Blog World of Travels with Kids Solo Mom

Solo moms’ family travel blogs

Mumpacktravel.

Solo mum Evie and her 12-year-old daughter Emmie spent years backpacking Asia full-time, and since covid, they’ve returned to Sydney where Emmie has started high school, and as well as continuing their trips together, Evie is now doing trips alone.

So far this year they’ve explored Malaysia and Fiji, and Evie has traveled alone to Dubai, Hawaii, and cruised the Greek Islands with Royal Caribbean.

Evie and Emmie share their journey with practical tips about where to stay and what to do, how to pack up your life and start the best adventure you’ll ever have with your family, and now how to travel without kids (also super fun!) .

Lizzie Lau Travels

Our mission at Lizzie Lau Travels is to provide a family travel resource with stories, city guides, road trip routes, tips, and hacks to help parents and their kids make the most of their travels.

Though our focus is on traveling with kids, I spent my adult life before kids traveling the world and working as a chef on private yachts, so I have a lot of insight into solo travel, luxury travel, budget travel, and in between.

I caught the travel bug at an early age living a nomadic life with my parents. We moved 20 times before settling down in BC when I was 10. At 22 I left to work on a dive boat in The Bahamas and finally returned home at age 45.

My 9-year-old daughter was conceived in Guatemala, born in California, and has already been on over 50 flights. It’s safe to say she’s following in her mama’s footsteps and developing a passion for travel.

Learning to breathe abroad

A South African Mom and Son team traveling , homeschooling, and working our way around the world .

We spent 12 months backpacking around South East Asia, then bought a campervan in the Netherlands and spent 9 months traveling extensively through all the Eastern European countries, a few Western European countries, and spent 2 months in Morocco.

We’re just starting out on our next big adventure – a year traveling through South America. Join us as we explore new places, eat exotic food, dance in the rain and look for high adventure wherever we go!

RV family travel blogs

Otis and Us is a family travel blog; sharing travel tips, family days out, family travel, glamping, and campervan adventures with an aim to inspire others to travel with young kids and embrace the belief that life is an adventure.

Crazy Family Adventure

We sold our house in 2014, bought an RV, and have been traveling full-time around North America ever since.

On Crazy Family Adventure we share different things you can do with kids when you visit a destination with a focus on outdoor adventure and National Parks . We love encouraging other families to get out and travel more and live life the way they want to.

General family travel blogs

Four around the world.

Four Around the World are an Aussie family of four who fit in travel as often as they can. Holly and Simon have traveled to almost 30 countries and their daughters are quickly catching up, having visited 5 continents so far, with Europe being a favorite.

They love sharing family-focused travel tips, comprehensive kid-friendly itineraries, and destination guides with the goal of helping to make family travel easier for other families who want to do the same.

Thrifty Family Travels

We are Melissa, Andy, and Myla and together we run the blog Thrifty Family Travels. We have always had a passion for traveling, exploring new destinations, and making friends across the world. Between us, we have traveled to 38 different countries and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon!

We’ve had our blog for almost 6 years now which focuses on good value family travel; not necessarily the cheapest travel but rather we show families how to spend their travel dollar wisely, without ever compromising on experience .

We advise families on what components of travel they should go budget and where they should splurge a bit as well as how to pick up bargains along the way.

Unlike other family travel bloggers, we are not nomadic. We live in Brisbane, Australia but like to get out and travel as much as we can. While we prefer to get off the beaten track and explore the more adventurous destinations, we’re also just as happy to visit the typical family-friendly tourist destinations.

Most of our travels tend to be in Australia, South East Asia, and the South Pacific, but we have also traveled throughout Europe as a family as well as North and South America individually.

Pack More Into Life

Hi! My name is Chelsea and I am the writer and traveler behind Pack More Into Life along with my husband and young son. We are a military family traveling the US and Europe as we move around the world with my husband’s career.

We put an emphasis on spending quality time together as a family by traveling to new places, taking weekend trips, and exploring the areas where we live.

In my blog, I cover over 20 countries with ideas on where to visit, which restaurants have the best food, and family-friendly activities . We hope to inspire you to wander through the beauty of Plitvice Park in Croatia, relax on a cheese farm in the Netherlands or go on a 2-night river rafting trip in California!

Our Family Passport

Hello, I am Kam from @ourfamilypassport! Ourfamilypassport is an award-winning travel blog that focuses on showing how Insta-worthy family travel can be doable, affordable, and accessible to nearly everyone!

I am a mom to a blended family of six and an art history professor by day and a travel blogger and creator by night. We are a crazy circus with normal jobs, school schedules, and day-to-day responsibilities, but we make sure to carve out time to explore the world together and we love showing how you can too!

We have learned from experience that family travel is one of the greatest ways to grow together as a family and to help you and your children become global citizens! We show you how to have the freedom and ability to cultivate a life of discovery and fulfillment through family travel. We are all about experiences over things!! The memories and moments together are everything and they are possible!

If you are looking for practical and relatable ways to plan, book, and pay for those Insta-worthy vacations that you have always dreamed of then pop on over and say hi! We love new friends and would be so happy to have you part of our crew!

The learning escapes family

We are an international family of 4: Marta (mum), from Italy, Philip (dad) from Ireland, and two children, Mr. M and Little Ms. E. Living in Ireland, we love to travel and go on family holidays any time we can

Sometimes it is a short hop, like a weekend in Europe, and other times it is longer trips, up to about 3 weeks at a time. We need to follow school breaks but we always make the absolute most of them!

When we go for long, we usually do it via home swaps. We leave our home to a foreign family and, in exchange, stay in their place. It is a wonderful way to experience places like locals and we have also made great friends all over the world this way!

We have loved all our trips but we do have some favorite destinations: in Europe, we adore Rome (my hometown), Amsterdam, and Lisbon and in the US we are obsessed with National Parks and California, one of our favorite places on earth (the photo is from Joshua Tree).

We talk about all our trips on our website Learning Escapes: there, you find all our itineraries and tips for traveling as a family, based on personal trips and experiences near and far . Traveling and writing are our great passions and we show them both on the blog: we hope you enjoy it!

No back home

Karilyn is a writer, photographer, and social influencer providing detailed information for family travelers to inspire them to get out and explore the world, even if it’s only in their own city.

Karilyn and her nature-obsessed family members focus on outdoor adventures that the entire family can enjoy .

Since 2000, Karilyn has traveled to 49 countries on her own and to 32 with her son. The duo travel can be found anywhere off the beaten path like the Amazon River or closer to home in one of the US’s many amazing National Parks.

Flashpacking Family

Behind the scenes of the Flashpacking Family are Jacs (Mum and content creator), Ed (Dad and digital marketing expert), Ernie (wildlife enthusiast), and George (fearless explorer).

We have more than 20 years of travel experience pre-kids and have been traveling as a family since our children were babies. The boys have visited 15 countries so far and have started putting together their own bucket lists, including Australia and all its deadly animals.

Our family favorites so far are South Africa, Jordan, Iceland, and Sri Lanka but the list keeps on growing as we explore the world together. Above all, we have learned that it’s important to spend quality time together, making memories as opposed to collecting things. We live a minimal life, traveling as often as time and budget allow.

Since having kids, we’ve also developed a better awareness of the importance of traveling sustainably and are always thinking about the boys’ future when we book our travels. Through our blog, we aim to promote the benefits of family travel and inspire others to step out of their comfort zone and try something new .

Together we roam

Rene Young best describes herself as nobody special, together with her husband she wrangles two primary school kids aged 8 and 10 poorly and is fully entrenched in the hum-drum of mum life.

By night she’s scheming of new places for the family to go and uses her inarticulate words to escape to a world where she prefers to be; hunting down secluded beaches, getting lost in a city’s back alleys, and experiencing new places and faces through the eyes of my children.

Her award-winning blog is a small space on the internet that combines family and travel, her two greatest passions in hopes that it may inspire or help families to go and get out there .

Parenthood and passports

Damon and Melissa have been traveling the world with their daughter since right after she was born. From the charming streets of Europe to the dirt roads in Central America, their goal is to visit all seven continents as a family by the time their daughter turns ten years old. (Yes, even Antarctica is on their travel list!) Some of their favorite places to visit with kids include Japan, Colombia, and Scandinavia.

Founded by two award-winning journalists, Parenthood and Passports is a resource to help parents travel safely and easily with kids. They provide detailed reviews, well-researched itineraries, and tips learned through their own experience traveling the world as a family .

Although travel is their passion, Damon and Melissa haven’t quit their day jobs. Instead, they love showing other ordinary, working parents how to prioritize travel, budget, save, and see the world — one or two weeks off at a time.

Detail Oriented Traveler

My blog, Detail Oriented Traveler, is for busy moms who want to travel more with their kids before they move out . We feature authentic vacation ideas and practical travel planning advice.

Tonya Denmark, owner, coffee drinker, beer lover, and mom extraordinaire, and her family are based out of central Florida and are on a mission to visit all 50 states. Follow along as she shares authentic Florida destinations and unique US destinations that her teenagers love.

We love to follow Travel Babbo as well!

That’s quite a detailed list! When it comes to planning a family vacation, I am completely overwhelmed. Hopefully, these blogs will provide me with some useful tips for planning a fantastic holiday after Covid-19. I would absolutely have a look at these.

Thank you so much for your comment! Glad you liked our list and happy planning!

great blogs to follow specially if you are planning a family vacation.

It’s very touching to know about these family travel blogs. Reading this post has made me exclaim this thing ‘Family that travels together, stays together.’

Travel can be an enlightening and eye-opening experience for children of all ages: there are new foods, experiences, and sights, not to mention quality family time. But traveling with children can also be an overwhelming proposition — unpredictable schedules, long packing lists, and cranky kids are just a few of the challenges you may encounter along the way. But here we’ll help you make traveling with kids a breeze. After all, you and your children should enjoy every moment of seeing the world and create a lifetime of memories along the way. Isn’t that the point of travel in the first place?

I’m a big fan of EscapingThe Bubble Travel Family. The husband is an airline pilot and he gives the inside scoop on where airline pilots travel with their kiddos and family. They are entertaining to watch but they are definitely more of a travel vlog as opposed to a family life vlog.

thanks so much for bringing them to our attention. I will definitely check them out!

Have a great day, Heleen

Amazing blog, I really enjoyed reading your blog, it feels good to read something amazing after a long time, please keep on writing blogs like this.

Sounds Good..!

Travelling with kids is important, to create a stronger bond, family togetherness and memories. It also helps kids’ education to foster a worldview beyond their own backyards. Traveling together creates great memories and moments that will last a lifetime.

Travel Mad Mum is a family travel blog created in 2014 and was initially focused on maternity leave travels by a nurse named Karen Edwards.

It started off backpacking through Asia with newborn Esmé, and later, the family traveled from Canada to Argentina by land, again on maternity leave with newborn Quinn and toddler Esme over the period of 7 months.

Since COVID, the family has slowed the travel lifestyle down and opted to live in different destinations rather than moving around often, mainly since they have grown their family with the addition of twins and subsequently becoming a family of 6.

The blog focuses on off-the-beaten-track destination guides and parenting travel tips.

Since their recent move to Sri Lanka, the family has covered every inch of the country with family-friendly activities in the form of Instagram reels, stories, and written articles on the website, becoming one of the top Sri Lanka travel blogs for families.

2 Wonders within Reach

Family travel blogs to follow Wonders within reach

“You can take on the wonders of the world with wheels!”

Homepage: Wonders within Reach

Travel style: Accessible adventures, city breaks and theme parks

Authority: USA and Europe

Ok these guys have seriously inspired us. We mentioned that we would feature a variety of families. Some of the most successful family travel blogs nail a niche. And this is possibly one of the most inspiring niches out there! In their own words, Wonders Within Reach exists for the dual purpose of inspiring and enabling families with disabilities to get out and explore and raising disability awareness within the travel community. This is one of the best blogs about family travel for children with disabilities. We don’t even want to try and put this into our own words, so check out what Jennifer says about Wonders within Reach.

Wonders within Reach share their vision

“I’ve always been a lover of all types of travel, so when we first found out that our middle child would never walk, we had to do some mental adjusting. After I got over the initial shock, I was determined to stop focusing on the “problem” and find solutions – and to help other families to do the same! Now we share as we travel and learn to help other families navigate accessible travel. Through travel, we better understand the world we live in and the people it’s made of.

Instead of fearing the different and unknown, we learn through experience that different isn’t bad, or scary, it’s just different. The more we connect with people, the more our hearts expand to include them into our worldview, and to desire justice and equality. I don’t want to stop traveling, because I don’t want to stop growing. I need my children to see people who not only look different than them, but experience life in such a different way. Prejudice is steeped in a discomfort with the unknown… so let’s make it known!”

3 Top Flight Family

Top flight family Luxury family travel blog

“Traveling with kids doesn’t have to be draining or difficult or unpleasant.”

Homepage: Top Flight Family

Travel style: Fun, food and luxury family travel

Authority: Everywhere. Especially the Americas and the Caribbean

Looking for luxury blogs about family travel? Top Flight Family are best known for creating an incredible luxury travel lifestyle through their work. There’s so much to learn from Top Flight Family. They are leading experts when it comes to making travel more enjoyable. They share savvy tips for choosing what to prioritise and have developed some of the most clever ways to save on all things lux. Their awesome YouTube is packed with fresh travels guides and reviews from some of the worlds top destinations. If you’re planning a city break, luxury hotel stay or are even thinking about flying first class somewhere, hop over and check out their YouTube Channel . What’s really special about Top Flight Family is the way they are building phenomenal character and life-skills into their girls – and it really shines through. Check out their website to find out whey they are one of the leading family travel blogs.

Top Flight Family share their goals

“We travel with our kids, not just because we believe that travel offers incredible learning opportunities when it comes to culture, history and geography, but because we know that travel builds life skills. Through experiencing the ups and downs of travel alongside us, our daughters have developed important life skills like resilience, patience, flexibility, stamina, optimism and resourcefulness. These are skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives, no matter what type of career they end up having.

Anytime we have an opportunity to save time, reduce hassle and maximize comfort, we’ll take it. Sometimes we do it in big ways, by staying in a luxury hotel or upgrading to a business class flight. And sometimes we do it in small ways, like paying a few extra bucks to take a taxi instead of the subway, or by paying for an express lane rather than wasting valuable time standing in a line. The more we can introduce comfort, ease and time savings into our trips, the more we enjoy it.

One thing I hope that our audience can learn from us is that traveling with kids doesn’t have to be draining or difficult or unpleasant. Everyone has budget constraints, but it’s all about choosing wisely when deciding what to save on versus what to splurge on. Get clear on what matters most to you, and don’t be afraid to splurge on that by saving on other things! If you’re a big foodie, stay at a cheap Airbnb instead of a fancy hotel so you can splurge on great restaurants. If you absolutely live for a good luxury hotel, save on airfare by flying a budget airline or using points and miles smartly, so that you have the budget to splurge on your accommodations.

Just because we specialize in luxury family travel doesn’t mean we splurge on every aspect of our trip! We always decide which aspect of the trip we’re willing to splurge on, and we do other aspects cheaply to make it happen!”

She has now directed her talent, creativity and commitment to develop one of the most exciting projects in family travel. The Travel Mum is all about equipping and enabling families to travel on the tightest budget – and still have an AMAZING time as a family. With years of travel experience behind her, she has worked out ways to help families that are new to booking holidays independently do it well.

We are particularly impressed with the innovative “request a trip” concept. If you’re looking for an amazing family holiday on a budget – check out The travel Mum. Here is what Jen says about her amazing website…

The Travel Mum shares her goals

“Hi! I’m Jen, an ex NHS doctor and avid traveller. I run The Travel Mum alongside my partner João and our three year old son, Leo. João is Portuguese, we met and fell in love whilst I was travelling in his hometown of Portimão. We absolutely love travelling together as a family and have done since Leo was just a few weeks old.

We travel every month but always on a very tight budget. Clean and comfortable for the cheapest possible price is always our goal. Prior to The Travel Mum we would post videos on TikTok of the trips we were taking, many people would comment wanting to know how we could afford to travel so often. We started sharing the prices of our trips, how we found them and tips on cutting costs. From there The Travel Mum was born.

The aim of our website is to help people travel more but spend less. We spend hours each day looking for the cheapest possible flights out there, we then pair them with a great value hotel to allow people to get away on a tight budget. This helps couples, families and solo travellers with low income get away and explore the world. We regularly find trips for less than £100pp!

The Travel Mum ha s a premium side to the website that allows people to “Request a trip” – This is a personalised service where we will search everything that is available and provide the cheapest options for the member’s specific needs. We check DIY deals (booking flights and hotel separately) alongside package prices, to make sure the prices we provide are the best value. A nd we have kept the annual subscription fee at just £24 for the whole year, making it affordable for everyone to access the service.

We have a new website being developed that will be released in April 2023. It will have some major updates that will make finding cheap trips simple for all.”

6 Hangry by nature

If you are looking for giggles, inspiration and some awesome family travel content check out Hangry by Nature. This legend, mummy and family travel influencer has an epic website, a youtube channel and a super-successful TikTok. Hangry specializes in Australia, Japan and Southeast Asia. Tina runs Hangry by Nature and we absolutely love her way with words.

Hangry by Nature shares her vision

“People always say that life ends after having kids, I mean – it’s true to an extent, but I refuse to accept such a miserable and bleak prospective future. It’s probably the end of sanity as you know it, but I like to also think that life begins. We can’t nearly begin to tell you how much travel means to us. From the memories we hold onto dearly from the days our parents gallivanted us around the world until this very day – our nomadic tendencies never left us. When we settle in one place for too long, we get a serious case of FOMO.

Travel inspired us to leave our traditional jobs, harness our creative talents and turn Hangry By Nature into our full-time jobs. It has taught us how to tolerate one another 24/7 without strangling each other, it has given us cultural awareness and blessed us with the ability to reflect on our strengths and weaknesses. Most precious of all, it has allowed us to spend time together as a family and create memories that matter.

The FUNemployed share their story

“We’re Ben, Kelly, Liesel and Mason and we’re The FUNemployed Family! After a decade climbing the corporate ladder and settling into an unfulfilling suburban life, we realized our current path wasn’t mental health sustainable and we needed a change. We quit our jobs, sold our home and took off on a yearlong, 25 country trip around the world with our toddler. Our goal was to reset our lives, focus on what’s most important, spend more time together as a family and experience the world.

Three years later, we’re still going strong as a digital nomad family experiencing the world with our kids while we work remotely in finance and content creation along the way. Our goal is to encourage others to live a life of “experiences over things” and to not wait until retirement to travel. Our time with kids is fleeting and it’s worth making tough life changes now to ensure we live with no regrets. We share tips for traveling with young kids and family friendly destinations and hotels around the world!”

“What if we didn’t really want to spend time at work away from the kids during their most formative years, just so we could accumulate savings that would allow us to buy our “dream home” years down the line, just in time for the kids to leave the house anyway?”

In 2018, Jess and Rod were at a crossroads. They could continue their careers as accountants and aerospace engineers, or they could take a leap of faith to chase their dream of freedom, flexibility, and spending more time together. They made the decision to quit their jobs, sell most of their stuff, and start traveling the world full-time as content creators with their two young kids. Since then, they’ve visited over 50 countries while working on photography, videography, and social media campaigns with travel and hospitality brands. During the pandemic they settled in Florida and are now constantly planning their next trip as well as helping other families travel more together.

Their blog, The Jetsetting Family, provides recaps of their adventures, family travel guides for various destinations, and tips & tricks for traveling with kids. They also host a weekly podcast highlighting must-visit places for families as well as chats with family travel experts and fellow adventurers. For those that are looking to learn how to get free and paid sponsored trips, they launched a digital course called “The Art of the Pitch,” where they share the strategies and techniques that they use to pitch collaborations with brands. Aside from their blog, Jess and Rod are very active on Instagram (@thejetsettingfamily), where they share stories and reels about their lives as family travelers, parents, and entrepreneurs.

“People always told us to travel before kids because after kids you can’t travel. Those people are missing out. Traveling as a family has allowed us to create so many awesome memories! We take Olivia and Everett everywhere with us. Occasionally, we’ll do a couples trip, but for the most part we feel there’s nowhere we can’t take them. You can truly make any destination kid-friendly. Though, we do try to find family friendly hotels or rentals and activities that will be fun for them in every place we visit. The kiddos have become quite the rockstars at traveling. We often have to be flexible and they just roll with the punches. Part of the hope for this blog is to inspire other families nervous about planning a trip with kids (or maybe you already travel with kids, which is awesome!).”

outdoors as a family. We started our RV travel life in 2020 after planning it all out for two years. Initially we just wanted to travel and see all the places in the US but our journey quickly turned into much more than that. Plunging into a lifestyle so extreme (no RV or camping experience + no remote jobs) took a lot of courage and a whole lot of faith! We’ve always had a mindset of “it’ll work out one way or the other” and this lifestyle really put this mindset and our faith to the test. It’s been 2.5 years of growth, bonding, connecting, overcoming trials with some adventure

sprinkled in between. We truly believe that life was meant to be lived, felt, experienced and shared with your loved ones. Everyday is a gift and we ought to use it, not just hope to use it one day.

Boston Tribe Travels is an inspiring story of a family who is living their dream of traveling the world. They are a great resource for families who are considering their own world travel adventure.

Boston Tribe Travels Share Their Goals

“We’re a typical family from the UK, at least that’s what we’d like to believe (though opinions may vary!). For the past decade, we’ve lived, worked, and wandered across international borders, all the while looking for any and all opportunities to travel with kids.

Our story began in 2010, pre kids, when we made life changing choice – booking a one-way flight to Malaysia (an enticing offer from AirAsia at a mere £99!). With a head full wanderlust and insufficient bank balance, we embarked on an adventure that would impact our choices forever, traveling for as long as our funds would allow.

Six months later, reality caught up with us, and we found ourselves counting pennies. In pursuit of this dream, we discussed how could we make this our full time life, we ventured to South Korea, where we embarked on a new chapter teaching English.

Two years and a baby later, we realised that teaching could be our gateway to maintaining an international lifestyle. We briefly returned to England for fully qualified teacher training and welcomed another little rascal into our family before finding ourselves in North Cyprus, teaching at an international school.

From Cyprus, our journey took us to the lush landscapes of Brunei in Southeast Asia, where we spent the next five years surrounded by the jungle. However, when the grip of the pandemic locked down the country, we were stuck within its borders. It was during this time of reflection that we made a commitment to truly living life (didn’t we all?) “

For them, a life without travel is like trying to drink water from a straw with holes in it. It just doesn’t work. So, putting travel at the center of their life has been a necessity, more than a want. When everyone gleefully tried to tell them their “travels were now over” once they had kids. They gleefully said, “We’ll show you!

Since 2010, they’ve been blogging about their family’s global travel adventures, which has included an 18-month road trip around Australia and an 11-month USA RV trip. They recently took a 2 week trip to London and will be kickstarting 2023 with a vacation in the Bahamas. Yep, we’re a little jealous of this one!

These Aussies are now settled in Raleigh, North Carolina, but continue to travel on shorter style vacations (sometimes sans kids!). They’re really proving that travel does not have to stop once you have kids, and it can evolve with your lifestyle.

This experience inspired us, and as of November 2023, we have started a new chapter of our travel adventures with our two wonderful daughters, Georgia and Eva.

Our Globetrotters share their story

“In a prior life I worked as a Chartered Accountant in Melbourne, Australia then London, UK but I have put my full-time career on hold to focus on my young children, writing, share trading, joining countless committees and in my remaining time learning more about the world through the friends I meet and of course, my travels. From street stalls in Asia to beer cafes in Belgium I regularly traveled for over 10 years prior to having my first child in 2010.

I assumed from this point onward my travel days would be numbered; but as my daughter’s passport is testament to, she had already visited five continents and clocked up 100,000 air miles with us by the tender age of three. With three children now in tow, my travel experiences have certainly changed – and our combined air miles sit well over 1,000,000! – but our travels are still rewarding. The Globetrotters Blog draws on my own travel experiences and the advice I have gathered from fellow traveling parents, as well as what I have learnt about different cultures and how the expatriate life affects parenting.”

World Travel Family share their story

“We decided travel was the best possible lifestyle our family and we have no regrets at all about travelling with the kids for so long. It was all wonderful and everything worked out just as we hoped it would. We travelled full time for almost 7 years with 2 kids until Covid caught up with us and we found ourselves stuck behind closed borders in Australia for a while.

During that period (after quietly losing our sanity through being stuck) we bought a farm with the aim of being as self-sufficient as possible while maintaining and improving the land and supporting our native wildlife. We all got involved in volunteering and conservation efforts locally, particularly protecting The Great Barrier Reef, which is on our doorstep. We just had to make the most of the hand we were dealt during those years and some of it wasn’t easy. We’re about to set off again. We have a big trip booked for just after Christmas, at least 6 countries on the itinerary so far including Bali, Thailand, Greece, Jordan and home to the UK.”

With our blog we want to inspire other parents to travel and share the wonders of the world with their kids. We write about the destinations we visit, share our tips for family travel, talk about responsible travel and discover worldschooling on the way. From our home base in The Netherlands we discover the world one country at a time. Flip Flop Globetrotters shows the reality of travel with kids, the good and the bad and everything in between.”

From RV living in the US to traveling around Asia for several months at a time, we learned so much along the way.

“We’re Sweet Little Journey, a family of 4 with two sweet girls ages 4 & 6! We’ve been traveling since before having kids and couldn’t show them the world the moment each was born. We both work full time as software engineers and have been strategically using parental leaves, holidays, and personal time off to schedule in as much travel as possible.

We’re both from Eastern Europe and grew up in various parts of the world until we met each other in Canada during our first year of college! We truly believe that travel and experiences shape who you are as a person, and really opens and expands your mind.

One of the most common things we hear is people telling us “why bother, the kids won’t remember”. And while that may be true, it also builds a foundation of resiliency, adaptability, open mindedness and so many other great aspects of your life. Also – these memories are as much for them as they are for us! We love sharing new experiences with our kids and seeing them see the world for the first time 🙂

We run a website and Instagram page where we share about our adventures big and small. Our website is a great place to get ideas for itineraries, read about places in much detail, and get some photography tips. Our IG page is primarily used for inspiration and creating fun short videos!”

Wanderlust and Wet wipes bio

“Since I started this blog, it has become my passion to talk to other families like us about how to make travelling with kids not just easier but something that is super fun for everyone. I truly believe in the many many benefits of family travel (as long as it isn’t stressful!) and in how you can make lasting, positive memories with your children.

I want to empower you and your family to take holidays that you might think are beyond your reach now that you have kids because until recently that was ME! Now don’t get me wrong, this is not (necessarily) about having the same holiday that you had pre-children, nor is it to say that everyone should take their kids backpacking in India for 6 months. Although… if you want to and can do either of those things then good for you!

It’s about understanding that there are ways to have the holiday YOU want to have but that also works for your kids. There’s truly is no right or wrong to family travel. Every person and every family is unique and it stands to reason that the holidays that they take will be too. And that’s exactly as it should be.”

Our Next Adventure share their story

“In 2015, we had achieved the American Dream: a beautiful home in the suburbs, good paying jobs, and a baby on the way. We had it all, yet still felt discontent. We’d done everything we were supposed to do, so why’d it still feel like something was missing? That’s when we realized, in this life of schedules and predictability, we had lost of our sense of adventure. We knew we needed to make a change. So 3 weeks before our daughter Evelyn was born (probably not the most opportune time, eh?), we decided we would finally make travel a priority! Even if it meant doing so while navigating this new adventure in parenthood!

Now, 4 years and 2 kids later, we’re adventuring more than ever before! And we’ve learned to balance our life at home with a life of travel, having the best of both worlds. We’ve also learned along the way that life is short, and we want to give our kids the world. Spending our time and money on experiences, rather than things, is what makes us feel whole. Whether your family is completely new to travel with kids, or simply searching for your next adventure, we hope you’ll find some practical advice and inspiration here! Because it’s never too late to choose adventure.”

Nicola shares how she started Jetlag & Mayhem

“The Jetlag & Mayhem story started in 2009, as a new mum living in Hong Kong. I was about to set sail on my first solo long haul flight with a 4 month old baby. H owever, I couldn’t find any resources online that resonated with me about how to travel with a baby. I mean, where do you put the baby? How do you sterilise bottles? What do you pack? How do you stop the baby crying? Help!

I soon figured it all out (wet wipes are the answer to everything) and friends started to ask for all my tips. Rather than continually send out the same email, inspiration struck. I knew I wanted to bring together a site that shared the true story of traveling with a baby; the vomit, jetlag and beyond! Thus Jetlag & Mayhem was born and I have loved writing it ever since.”

Travel has been in my blood since I was 10 years old, I was lucky enough for my parents to take my sister and me to America and Mexico for a couple of months. Though I had a wait a long time before my next adventure the moment I finished university and one year of teaching I was off. The next 12 years were about adventure and experiencing what the world had to offer.

During this time I met my wife and together we travelled the world and lived in various countries.

By the time 2010 rolled around the first of our two kids arrived and within 4 months Lukas was travelling. When Sawyer arrived he had to wait a little longer for his first adventure… 6 months.

We love travelling with our children. Sure the party life has mostly disappeared but the excitement of planning, visiting new destinations, watching our kids grow as world travellers especially their confidence and most importantly creating precious memories. you can’t beat family time!

By Diva Anwari July 6, 2022

As the weather warms up, I know we’re all looking for places to get away to. Maybe you’re looking for a close spot the whole family can enjoy for a weekend or you’re searching for an opportunity to check off a bucket list vacation and get some good family fun in at the same time.

Well, family travel blogs can be a great place to start your planning. They’re a one-stop destination for empowering moms through lived travel experiences. From hacks and tips to travel do’s and don’ts and everything else you need to know before you embark on your next adventure with your little ones, these blogs will give you information you didn’t even know you needed.

And while some of them can be specific to certain regions or certain types of family vacations (see number 2) there are more than a few that tackle worldwide getaways. Bookmark these family travel blogs for the next time you’re feeling wanderlust.

1. Trips With Tykes

Leslie, mother of two and founder, gives the low-down on everything TSA related and logistical statistics. Of course, traveling with little ones is no easy feat but she makes it seem like a breeze! This California-based mom has great advice on everything to do in California, the different Disney theme parks around the world, and all things skiing. Along with tips for cheap tickets, she’s also adding more global travel to her list with places like Cancun and Panama.

2. Wonders Within Reach

As far as accessible travel goes, this mom has got all of the tips and tricks you need to take on the world in wheels. Jennifer Allen is a mom of three who gives travel advice for families with disabilities. Check this blog out for wheelchair accessible cities, budget travel tips and more!

3. The Mom Trotter

This mama is a homeschool and traveling pro because she and her family travel the US full time in an RV! She has another blog dedicated to families of color traveling with their kiddos, that’s garnered over 18,000 loyal followers on Facebook, and she even helps families plan their own vacations.

For large-scale travel hacks and tips from all over the world, look no further. Kayak covers all of the bases, like finding flights, hotels and doing it all on a budget.

5. It’s a Lovely Life

Heather, her husband and her two daughters all contribute to their family-run blog. One daughter provides reviews from the perspective of an elementary school-aged kid and the other writes articles with a more mature college-aged point of view. Together they all make their popular blog a one-stop destination for the luxurious side of family travel.

6. Traveling Mom

You may have heard of this one on Good Morning America or CBS Radio. Mom and founder, Kim Orlando has created a super blog complete with practical and expert advice for all kinds of traveling families.

This mom of two shares packing tips, road tips and everything in between. And with over 75,000 followers on Instagram, this is definitely the kind of family travel blog you’ll want to check out.

BabyQuip Baby Gear Rental

Why lug 800 pounds of gear you may or may not use? One of the slickest tricks to save you the struggle is to rent the things you need instead! Strollers, car seats, even cribs and toys can be delivered directly to your destination via the pros at BabyQuip. (They’ll even meet you at the airport!) Not only do they deliver it–they set up everything for you, and pick it up when you’re done—all at your convenience. All rental gear is clean, safe and insured so you can rest easy and just enjoy your vacay!

8. Pit Stops for Kids

One of the harder things to plan for when you’re on vacation is knowing which kid-friendly places to stop at. Well, this site has got that covered for you. With tips on travel across the US and many other countries, this is the site to bookmark for everything from how to pack a stroller to finding wet wipes at a moment’s notice.

9. Trekaroo

This site is a travel resource for families looking to make the most of their adventures. Whatever your destination is, chances are that they’ve got it on their list of thousands of kid-friendly activities, hotels and much more—all reviewed by parents who’ve been there, done that and learned from their mistakes.

10. Baby Can Travel

This is the blog that’ll convince you that traveling with a baby is not only possible but it’s also a must. Not only will you find all kinds of advice on how to travel with a baby but you might also be inspired to book your first trip with your little one.

View this post on Instagram “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” — Mahatma Gandhi⁣ ⁣ 🌎 I’ve been thinking these past few weeks/months about how the tourism industry is managing throughout the world. With travel at almost a standstill around the world, how are all the independent businesses managing? ⁣ ⁣ 🐪 During this time I’ve heard from tour guides in Egypt who shared their country with us, rickshaw drivers in Delhi and this week I got an email from the camel safari that took us to the Thar Desert in Rajasthan. Some messaging just to say hello and see how we were managing, some asking for help to sustain their own small business or like the @wanderlustcamelsafarijaisalmer , needing help for their camel drivers. Thankfully they all know how to use the internet and have connections to try to raise funds. ⁣ ⁣ 🌟 But what about the individuals who work in roadside stalls selling local foods? The artisan crafters? The hostels and small family run hotels? How are they all surviving during this unprecedented time? ⁣ ⁣ These people have given their all to start businesses in tourism and are now left wondering if they have a future doing what they love. ⁣ ⁣ ✨ Does anyone know if there are organizations working to give back to these small businesses throughout the world who don’t have government assistance? If you know of any please share. I’d love to help drum up support for folks in the tourism industry who are really struggling right now. ⁣ ⁣ ❤️ Thinking of you all, my travel industry friends. I hope the tides are shifting and hopes are rising. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #incredibleindia #incredibleindiaofficial #incredibleindia🇮🇳 #rajasthan #rajasthandiaries #rajasthantourism #rajasthan_tourism #rajasthantrip #indiatourism #india_ig #india_undiscovered #familytravel #travelwithkids #familyadventures ⁣ #familyvacations #travelbook #our_everyday_moments #enchantedchildhood #travelinggram #lifeisoutthere #adventurelover #travelbuddy #travelingkids #borntotravel #amazingplaces #childhoodwonders #flashesofdelight A post shared by Karilyn | Adventure Travel (@nobackhome) on Jul 22, 2020 at 5:51am PDT

View this post on Instagram We've passed Brohm Lake Interpretive Forest countless times on our way from Vancouver to Whistler, and vice versa. Every time we pass the sign we say, "one of these days we should check out Brohm Lake". A few weeks ago, we finally decided to pull over and check it out. The lake is much bigger than we expected. We assumed it was similar to Browning Lake in Murrin Provincial Park, but we would guesstimate it's about 5 times the size. There are a few hiking trails that can be accessed from the parking lot at Brohm Lake Recreational Site. We decided to do the loop trail that circles the lake, thinking it would take about 20 minutes or so. We were wrong – it was much longer than expected and took us over an hour to complete. It's a nice hike, aside from the section that runs parallel to the Sea to Sky Highway. It was the right amount of time and effort for a hike with our boys. A few leg burning sections but mostly a rolling trail with lots of viewpoints. A post shared by Cam and Nicole Wears (@travelingcanucks) on Aug 16, 2020 at 8:50pm PDT

View this post on Instagram Can you se the double L-O-V-E? It’s been fun finding the love statues around Virginia and this one at the state’s oldest remaining covered bridge was our favorite. It was deserted and the creek was perfect for some water play. . Speaking of love, I got dozens and dozens of messages yesterday after a quick story I posted about all the things I DON’T do in our home and in our lives. I’m not superwoman; far from it. And so many of you needed the reminder to LOVE what you do and who you are – what you do, and also what you don’t. . Especially during this time, it’s so easy to feel overwhelmed. There’s so much going on. Too much. Between family concerns and health concerns and school concerns and community concerns, it’s just so much. . You’re doing great. If you have a Pinterest-worthy distance learning setup, that’s great! If you’re sitting outside doing zoom calls on a phone, that’s great! You’re doing GREAT. . My friend @aboutprogress shared yesterday that doing our best changes over time. Our best can look different depending on our circumstances. And that’s true for our kids, too. Our capacities and our capabilities evolve. And that’s okay. . Soooo let’s hear it. What is one thing you’re GOOD at right now, and one thing you’re NOT and not worrying about? I’ll start – I’m terrible at playing with my kids. I didn’t even really do toys or imagination games as a kid, so I definitely don’t now. I’m good at distilling information and explaining it so kids can understand. Your turn! . @visitvirginia . . . #harbuckiesacrossamerica2020 #visitvirginia #uniquelyalleghany #travelingwithkids #travelingfamily #familyadventures #rvfamily #rvliving #rvlifestyle #homeschooling #exploretheworld A post shared by Preethi | Education & Travel (@localpassportfamily) on Aug 14, 2020 at 6:41am PDT

Family Travel Blogs. The phrase itself resonates with excitement, adventure, and the joy of exploring the world with your loved ones. Family Travel Blogs are not just a collection of stories; they are a testament to the bonds created, memories shared, and the countless discoveries made as a family. In this Family Travel Blog, we will delve into various aspects of family travel, from tips and destinations to culture and much more.

Family Travel Blogs: A Gateway to Adventure

Family Travel Blogs serve as a gateway to adventure, providing inspiration for families to embark on memorable journeys together. One of the key tips for successful family travel is planning. Start by researching family-friendly destinations that offer a blend of excitement and comfort. Places like Disneyland, with its magical ambiance, or national parks that provide a natural playground for kids, are excellent options.

Tips for Stress-Free Family Travel

Family Travel Blogs emphasize the importance of planning, but flexibility is equally crucial. While it’s essential to have an itinerary, be open to spontaneity. Sometimes, the most cherished memories are the unexpected ones. Another tip is to pack wisely. Carry essentials, but remember that less is often more. Lightweight luggage and versatile clothing make traveling with the family more manageable.

Destinations for Every Family

Family Travel Blogs showcase a variety of destinations suitable for different family preferences. For those seeking sun and sand, beach destinations like Hawaii or the Maldives might be perfect. Families interested in history and culture may find Europe’s cities, with their rich heritage and museums, to be an ideal choice. Asia, with its diverse landscapes and vibrant cultures, also offers a plethora of family-friendly destinations.

Cultural Immersion: A Key Aspect of Family Travel

Family Travel Blogs often highlight the significance of cultural immersion. When traveling with family, embrace the local culture to make the experience richer. Attend local festivals, try traditional cuisines, and engage with the community. This not only broadens your family’s horizons but also fosters a deeper understanding of the world.

Budget-Friendly Family Travel Tips

Contrary to the misconception that family travel is always expensive, Family Travel Blogs provide numerous tips for budget-friendly adventures. Consider accommodations like vacation rentals or family-friendly hostels. Plan meals strategically, opting for local eateries rather than tourist-heavy restaurants. Take advantage of public transportation and explore destinations on a budget without compromising on the experience.

Educational Opportunities for Kids

Family Travel Blogs emphasize the educational value of travel. Every journey is an opportunity for children to learn about geography, history, and different cultures firsthand. Plan visits to museums, historical sites, and nature reserves to make learning a part of the adventure. Many destinations offer interactive exhibits and programs designed specifically for kids.

Making Travel Sustainable

Sustainability is a growing concern, and Family Travel Blogs are quick to address this issue. Encourage eco-friendly travel practices within the family, such as minimizing single-use plastics, supporting local businesses, and choosing eco-friendly accommodations. Teach children the importance of respecting the environment and leaving a positive impact on the places they visit.

The Joy of Family Bonding Through Travel

Beyond the destinations and activities, Family Travel Blogs celebrate the profound impact travel has on family bonds. Shared experiences create lasting memories and strengthen the connection between family members. Whether it’s overcoming challenges together, celebrating achievements, or simply enjoying a beautiful sunset, these moments contribute to the unique tapestry of family life.

Family Travel Blogs: Capturing Moments

Family Travel Blogs often emphasize the role of storytelling in preserving memories. Encourage family members to keep travel journals or create digital albums documenting the adventures. These personal accounts not only serve as cherished keepsakes but also inspire other families to embark on their journeys.

Navigating Challenges as a Family

Family Travel Blogs do not shy away from addressing challenges. Traveling with family, especially with young children, can be demanding. From jet lag to homesickness, Family Travel Blogs provide practical tips for overcoming these challenges. Maintaining a positive attitude, staying flexible, and involving children in decision-making processes are effective strategies.

Family-Friendly Outdoor Activities

Outdoor activities play a significant role in family travel. Family Travel Blogs often suggest engaging in activities like hiking, biking, or wildlife safaris that cater to all age groups. National parks, nature reserves, and scenic trails offer opportunities for adventure while fostering a love for the outdoors.

Culinary Adventures for the Whole Family

Food is a central aspect of travel, and Family Travel Blogs celebrate culinary adventures. Encourage children to try local dishes, and explore markets and street food stalls together. Many destinations offer cooking classes for families, providing a hands-on experience in preparing traditional meals.

Celebrating Milestones on the Road

Family Travel Blogs showcase the joy of celebrating milestones on the road. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or a significant achievement, families can make these occasions memorable by incorporating local traditions or organizing special activities. It’s a unique way to create lasting memories while embracing the spontaneity of travel.

Building Global Citizens Through Travel

Family Travel Blogs often emphasize the role of travel in shaping children into global citizens. Exposing them to diverse cultures, languages, and lifestyles fosters open-mindedness and empathy. Family trips provide a real-world education that goes beyond textbooks, creating a foundation for a more interconnected and understanding future.

Maintaining Health and Wellness on the Go

Family Travel Blogs stress the importance of health and wellness during journeys. Encourage a balance between exploration and relaxation. Prioritize sufficient sleep, stay hydrated, and incorporate physical activities into the itinerary. Many family-friendly destinations offer wellness-focused activities like yoga on the beach or family-friendly spa experiences.

Traveling with Teens: A Different Adventure

As children grow, family dynamics change. Family Travel Blogs recognize the unique challenges and joys of traveling with teenagers. Involve teens in the planning process, allowing them to have a say in the itinerary. Choose destinations that cater to their interests, whether it’s adventure sports, cultural experiences, or simply hanging out in trendy urban areas.

Creating Traditions Through Travel

Family Travel Blogs often highlight the opportunity to create lasting traditions. Whether it’s a yearly beach vacation, a winter getaway, or a special destination for each family member’s milestone, these traditions contribute to the fabric of family life. They become cherished rituals that everyone looks forward to.

Family Travel Blogs: A Community of Inspiration

Family Travel Blogs serve as a community where families share their experiences, tips, and recommendations. Engage with other families through social media, forums, or local meet-ups. Building connections with like-minded families provides additional insights and a sense of camaraderie in the shared adventure of exploring the world together.

Conclusion: Family Travel Blogs – A Chronicle of Love and Adventure

In conclusion, Family Travel Blogs are more than just accounts of vacations; they are a chronicle of love and adventure. From the initial excitement of planning to the shared joy of discovery, every aspect contributes to the unique tapestry of family life. So, as you embark on your family travels, let this Family Travel Blog be a source of inspiration, guidance, and a reminder of the incredible experiences that await you.

Best family travel destinations and family friendly vacation spots worldwide

Some of the best family travel destinations worldwide:

1. Daintree Rainforest, Australia

Recommended by Caz and Craig from YTravelBlog.

One of our favorite destinations for families is the Port Douglas Daintree region in Tropical North Queensland .

Port Douglas has the largest reef system and the oldest rainforest in the world to explore. What more can you ask for? Our girls loved snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef, zip-lining over the canopy of the Daintree Rainforest, playing on stunning beaches, searching for wild crocodiles on riverboat cruises, and enjoying delicious exotic ice cream made from the rainforest fruits.

It’s a relaxed and beautiful tropical destination with plenty for all members of the family to love.

TIP: You can also easily visit Daintree as a day trip from Cairns or Port Douglas. You can find the best selection of organized tours here .

Here you can find everything you possibly may want to know about visiting the Daintree Rainforest .

3. Bali, Indonesia

Recommended by Eric from Travel Babbo.

Bali has become one of our favorite family travel destinations the past couple of years. There’s a perfect mix of beaches and culture, and there’s always something to do, from attending festivals (which seem to take place all the time) to visiting water parks to hiking through rice fields.

The weather is warm year-round, although the rainy season (November through March) is exactly what it sounds like. The food is excellent and inexpensive. My 10-year-old’s favorite restaurant in the world is Cuca, near Jimbaran Beach.

Bali’s hotels are amazing, and virtually all welcome kids. We’ve stayed at hotels on the beach, but also in villas with private plunge pools overlooking river valleys and villas surrounded by rice fields. We always try to do activities through our hotels, like fish feeding, anti-gravity yoga, rice planting, ceramics, and local walks. We’re never ready to check out.

Even though there are more tourists every year, Bali never feels touristy. Ubud retains a really cool, artsy vibe. Plus there’s a monkey forest there – what kid doesn’t want to be surrounded by monkeys?

You can find more tips for visiting Bali with kids on Eric’s blog.

4. Costa Rica

Recommended by various families, including us.

Costa Rica is one of the most recommended family travel destinations in the Americas. It has all the ingredients for a perfect family-friendly travel experience: tropical climate, beaches, rainforests, lots of sightseeing possibilities, fun adventurous activities, and a big variety of wildlife.

No matter what kind of a family travel experience you’re looking for, Costa Rica makes it all possible.

Looking for a relaxing family vacation at a beautiful resort? Head to one of the many coastal destinations.

Looking for an adventure and action-filled vacation with teens? Check out the La Fortuna – Arenal area , aka the adventure capital of Costa Rica.

Want to see wildlife? Visit the famous Manuel Antonio National Park !

Or plan a road trip and see the best that Costa Rica has to offer, and add some relaxing pool/beach time to make it fun for the whole family.

The good thing about Costa Rica is that it’s an extremely family-friendly destination. And – if you’re coming from the USA, you won’t have to cross too many time zones. It’s also a place that you can visit the whole year round (a tropical rain shower is always possible, however).

Here you can find a sample 2-week Costa Rica itinerary that covers some of the best places, gives you plenty of opportunities to see wildlife, get to know the culture, try some fun activities such as zip-lining or wild water rafting, and also plan some relaxing time by the pool or at the beach.

5. Crete, Greece

Recommended by Paul from A Luxury Travel Blog.

The Greek island of Crete is somewhere we’ve frequently holidayed as a family. Crete has everything we could possibly want – a lovely climate, pure relaxation, great beaches, excellent food, and a beautifully slow way of life. There are some superb hotels on the island too!

We’ve often been drawn to a small fishing town Elounda which has some excellent luxury accommodation and plenty to see and do.

If you are looking for a family-friendly destination in southern Europe, a place that has is all, then you can’t go wrong with the Greek Islands and especially Crete!

Check Paul’s blog for all things luxury travel .

6. Whitefish, Montana, USA

Recommended by Nicole – The Passport Kids.

If you are thinking about experiencing what a winter wonderland would be like, our recommendation is the Whitefish Mountain Ski Resort in Montana, USA. The resort offers many family-friendly amenities and activities including daycare and kids ski & ride school directly on the resort.

Enjoy some outdoor winter fun with snowboarding, skiing, snowshoeing or sledding; then cozy up by the fire with some hot chocolate.

The resort and city of Whitefish offer a small-town American feel where life slows down for a while but still offers a great selection of hotels, restaurants and shopping.

Check Nicole’s blog for more information about Whitefish ski resort .

7. Gulf Shores, Alabama, USA

Recommended by Karen from Family Travels on a Budget.

Gulf Shores, Alabama is perfect for families because it’s got all the beach without all the crowds!

We love Gulf Shores for its white sand, seashells, sunsets, and seafood. But what makes it special is the space — wide beaches and smaller crowds mean we have more space to unwind.

Gulf Shores is more than a beach, though. We also enjoy hiking and biking the trails at Gulf State Park, catamaran day trips, paddle boarding and sunset dinners at local restaurants. It’s our home away from home — at the beach!

8. Cape Town, South Africa

Recommended by Keri from Baby Globetrotters (and one of our personal favorites too).

Everything about Cape Town is simply breathtaking! Nestled beneath the unmistakable Table Mountain, many start their South African adventure at the lively V&A Waterfront.

Near to the city, you will find the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens and Tree Canopy Walkway, the Table Mountain Cable Car or why not take a ferry and tour around the now infamous Robben Island?

Heading further out of Cape Town for a couple of days is a must – head to where the oceans meet at the Cape of Good Hope, visit the Penguins at Boulders Beach and spot the seals at Hout Bay.

Next head east to the Stellenbosch wine region – so many family-friendly wine farms it’s hard to choose where to start. Finish off your Cape Town adventure with a simply breathtaking sunset over the Atlantic Ocean from Signal Hill or Camps Bay.

Find out more about Cape Town family vacation on the Baby Globetrotters blog.

Our experience: We completely agree with Keri – Cape Town and the whole of South Africa is amazing with kids and one of our own personal favorite places in the world. Here you can find more tips for visiting South Africa with young kids and here you can find a sample itinerary for the best of South Africa .

Cape Town in South Africa is one of the favourite family travel destinations

Recommended by several families, including us.

If you are looking for a truly unique family vacation destination, then definitely consider Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. It’s such a special place (and totally different from anything else on this list), but it has so much to offer for families!

From beaches to deserts, impressive skyscrapers, and sensational attractions for the whole family, there’s so much to see and do in Dubai that you can easily fill several family vacations here and never get bored.

Visit the world’s highest building, ride a camel in the desert, spend time at one of the many theme parks, or go swimming at some of the world’s most impressive water parks… These are just a few of the amazing things to do in Dubai with kids !

And while visiting a destination like this with the whole family can quickly get quite expensive, there are quite a few really nice free and cheap things to do in Dubai as well.

Furthermore, Dubai enjoys warm weather the whole year round (albeit a bit too hot in the summer months), and it’s a perfect family vacation destination for off-season travel as well.

What we also love about Dubai is that it’s extremely multicultural, and kids can get in touch with different traditions. We were pleasantly surprised by the food in Dubai as well! With so many cuisines and middle-eastern touches, the food is absolutely delicious. It’s also another great way to introduce your children to different cultures.

Here you can find more information and fun facts about Dubai , read more about the best tours in Dubai , and also find out how expensive Dubai is .

10. Cambodia

Recommended by Alanna from The Travelling Hams.

Most people don’t think of Cambodia as a family-friendly destination, but we wholeheartedly disagree! The country is full of stunning nature and some of the most beautiful temple ruins in the world.

Our toddlers loved exploring the ruins as much as we did! For our kids, the ruins were the ultimate playground. Each equipped with crumbling stairs to climb, plenty of rocks and leaves to play with, and even some wildlife to watch. It’s a great way to challenge their senses and it gives you a chance to enjoy them yourself – a double bonus!

Cambodians are some of the friendliest people in Southeast Asia. They love to stop you and chat about your children and give friendly pats and pinches. For those with really young ones- they even help to watch your children while you get a few mouthfuls of food in!

11. Rovaniemi, Finland

Recommended by Erin – Travel with Bender.

If you ask our kids out of the 67 countries they have been to in their 6 years of life, which was their favorite, they would unanimously agree – Finland . More specifically Rovaniemi to the North of Helsinki. Why? So many reasons!

First, it’s where the real Santa lives. When you send a letter to Santa it goes here. You can see all the pigeon holes from around the world with letters to Santa. You can even post your own! You can spend an evening with the elves in the forest, decorating trees, baking cookies, and learning Santa secrets.

In addition, when you are not visiting Santa, you can spend days doing all kinds of fun winter outdoor activities. Ride husky sleds through a winter wonderland, take a reindeer sleigh through the forest, opt for a snowmobile safari that also visits reindeer and huskies, or go snow tubing down giant hills and through ice caves.

Top that with snowmobiles to capture a glimpse of the Northern Lights and a hot dinner of reindeer meat and what could be more perfect?!

Here you can read more about winter holiday in Roveniemi Finland .

12. Portugal

Recommended by Alex – My Life Long Holiday.

Central Portugal has been a family favorite for us since my parents emigrated there a few years back. The area has such a laid-back vibe, great food, culture, and beautiful scenery.

For adventurous families, there are activities like cycling, hiking, and kayaking. But my kids equally like exploring little old villages up in the mountains which haven’t changed for ages, so long as there’s ice cream at the end of it!

The Portuguese love children and you’re welcomed wherever you go with genuine smiles and warm hospitality. Add to this the warm sunshine and you have the formula for a relaxing, easy holiday.

Check Alex’s blog for more inspiration for a trip to Portugal.

Our experience: Inspired by Alex’s suggestion, we decided to visit Portugal with kids . And we were hooked – it’s one of the most beautiful and family-friendly travel destinations in Europe! In fact, we loved it so much that we went back to Portugal and the Portuguese islands several times.

Nowadays, we go to Portugal a few times a year and the whole family loves it. Here you can read about one of our absolute favorite destinations – Algarve with kids . And here, you can find an overview of our Portugal travel tips .

13. Philadelphia, USA

Recommended by Eileen – FamiliesGo!

Philadelphia is close enough to home that it has been a frequent day trip for us. Now that we travel with a child we have begun to stay for a night or two, which has given us a new appreciation for all that this city has to offer for families.

Federal Hall is a must-see on your first visit (the Declaration of Independence was signed here). The city also has a lot of family-friendly museums.

Please Touch Museum will be a hit with younger kids, while school-going children will appreciate the Franklin Institute and the sprawling Museum of Art.

Philadelphia is also known as a great city for eating out. I recommend Federal Donuts near Rittenhouse Square, Hawthorne’s near South Street and Reading Terminal. Great city break for families.

Here you can read more about Philadelphia with kids .

14. The Canadian Rockies

Recommended by Melissa – Parenthood and Passports.

As a family who wants to see as much of the world as possible, it’s rare for us to visit the same destination twice. But there is one place we return time and time again: The Canadian Rockies .

The Canadian Rockies are one of the most naturally beautiful wonders on earth. The mountains have a rugged, majestic appeal. Nestled between them are glacial lakes that shimmer a vibrant shade of blue.

Banff National Park, located in the heart of the Rockies is one of the most family-friendly places we’ve ever visited. The establishments are very accommodating to children, and the area is great to explore with kids.

Banff is a playground for outdoor enthusiasts. You’ll find everything from easy hikes to backcountry camping and winter mountain sports. We love exploring outdoors and hope to instill that same passion in our daughter. I can’t think of a better place to do so.

15. Cook Islands

Recommended by Karilyn – No Back Home.

One of our favorite family destinations is the Cook Islands in the South Pacific . For West Coast travelers it’s a short overnight flight with only a 3 hour time change.

The largest and main island, Rarotonga, is actually quite small with a ring road only 29 miles long! You will be welcomed to the island by beautiful white beaches with excellent snorkeling in calm lagoons and lush green mountains as your backdrop.

With plenty of adventure activities from hiking to buggy driving to kayaking to private islands, your family will have the time of their life in this island paradise!

16. Glacier National Park, USA

Recommended by Craig and Bryanna – Crazy Family Adventure.

Glacier National Park is one of the most visited National Parks in the USA and for a good reason. It’s also an amazing family travel destination! The views are out of this world, hiking is amazing, and there are so many fun activities for the whole family!

We really enjoyed driving the scary yet breathtaking beautiful Going to the Sun Road. You can see glaciers, waterfalls, and stunning mountains. There is also so much wildlife and you may even see a mountain goat, bighorn sheep, or a bear! We really enjoyed hiking to Hidden Lake, on the Trail of Cedars, and Apakuni Falls.

Each hike has something to offer from being able to step into the frigid cold glacier water, to seeing amazing waterfalls, or a lake surrounded by mountains. Everywhere you turn in Glacier National Park you are met with a view more beautiful than the last!

17. Big Island, Hawaii, USA

Recommended by Bethany – Flashpacker Family.

Our family’s new favorite destination is the Big Island of Hawaii . Hawaii is such a special place but the Big Island really takes the cake. You can do everything here!

You can swim with turtles , stay in beautiful resorts, enjoy a luau, go whale watching and snorkeling, hike to waterfalls, visit a volcano, and even sail in a submarine.

The Big Island is great for families because it’s easy to rent a car, drive around and enjoy something new every day. There’s no excuse to be bored on the Big Island!

TIP: If you are planning a trip to Hawaii, don’t miss Maui – one of the most beautiful islands. Here you can find Maui itinerary suggestions and here you can read about the very best Maui activities . It’s a wonderful destination for families as well!

18. Florence, Italy

Recommended by Scarlet – Family Focus Blog.

Our favorite family travel destination so far has been Florence in Italy . And yes, it’s a city, but Florence is wonderful for families because there is so much to do and see both indoors and outdoors!

It is a great city to walk around in and explore and make memories that will last a lifetime. The whole family will enjoy the delicious Italian food, culture, and attractions.

In addition, Florence is located in the heart of Tuscany region with the beautiful rolling hill landscapes, charming little towns, and the most friendly locals that absolutely adore children!

More tips for a family trip to Italy .

Our experience: It’s not a secret that Italy is one of our absolute favorite countries in the world and we have visited with and without kids countless times. Tuscany is indeed a wonderful region for a family vacation and Florence is the most beautiful of the Tuscan towns . Rent a villa or look for a nice hotel with a pool, and you can have the best family trip ever – a perfect combination of sightseeing and a relaxing vacation.

19. Hamilton, New Zealand

Recommended by Nadine – Le Long Weekend.

Our favorite family travel destination is Hamilton in New Zealand . Hamilton is New Zealand’s best-kept secret when it comes to family holidays.

Our favorite activities include the Waikato Museum with its dedicated kid’s discovery areas; the Zoo where cheeky Kaka land on your shoulder in the walk-through aviary; and the themed Hamilton gardens which will transport you into a new civilization at every turn!

But what really sets Hamilton apart are the many ‘destination playgrounds’. These amazing parks have the usual fun fixtures, water features, in-ground trampolines, and multi-story playhouses. Great for keeping the little ones busy while you enjoy coffee from a nearby cafe!

Read more about Hamilton, New Zealand on Nadine’s travel blog.

20. Florida Keys, USA

Recommended by Carrie Anne – Everything Mom .

When thinking about traveling to Florida with the kids the first place to pop into your mind is probably Orlando. Perfect if you’re looking for thrill rides, but the Florida Keys can offer families the chance to experience the more natural side of the state, specifically Marathon .

Take in a little history exploring the oldest home in the Florida Keys outside of Key West as well as remnants of the Flagler Railroad that connected all of the Florida Keys.

Kids, especially those too young to enjoy more adventurous water pursuits, will love a nature scavenger hunt, swimming with fish, or meeting rescued birds at the Wild Bird Sanctuary. You can even enjoy lunch under a large tiki hut restaurant just off of the scenic Seven Mile Highway.

Marathon also makes a great family destination due to how close it is to the other islands such as Key West and Islamorada. This amazing place proves that your Florida family vacation adventure doesn’t have to include any roller coasters.

21. Dordogne, France

Recommended by Kirsten – Kids are a Trip.

The Dordogne region in France is one of our favorite places to explore as a family. With beautiful castles, rivers for canoeing, and medieval towns for exploring, it is the perfect place to get away from everything and spend some quality time with your kids.

We especially enjoyed the bucolic landscape and the friendliness of the locals and found there was plenty to do for families.

If you want to learn more, please read Kirstin’s post about her family visit to Dordogne .

22. Swiss Mountains

Our personal recommendation.

This list wouldn’t be complete without me sharing at least one of our personal favorite family destinations as well. And if I have to choose just one, it has to be Switzerland!

Switzerland in general, and the Swiss mountains , in particular, has been one of our favorite travel destinations for years. We just love the Swiss Alps!

We try to go to Switzerland at least twice a year: skiing in winter and hiking in summer , and every time we don’t want to leave. Kids have asked several times if we could just move to Switzerland…

Charming mountain villages and small towns have such an amazing atmosphere that is hard to find anywhere else in the world. Add to that stunning landscapes, great food, and a huge variety of things to see and do for families with children, and you cannot go wrong planning a family trip to Switzerland.

TIP: Some of our favorite places include the Lucerne area , Zermatt , Mt Titlis , Grindelwald , Jungfraujoch , and Schynige Platte , to mention just a few.

Here you can read more about some of our favorite places in Switzerland .

Hi, we are a family of 4, kids aged 19 and 14 and have been to switzerland, dubai, milan, honkong, paris, istanbul already. We are unable to decide our next travel destination for November. What would you suggest?

Saturday 24th of June 2023

Hi Chitra, that's a tough choice indeed. Purely season-wise, I'd look into Southern Hemisphere for November I suppose. South Africa is amazing for a family trip and Namibia as well. Also Thailand could be a great option or Australia if you have more time. There are so many options. It also depends on where you live and how much time you have. We have quite some articles about the destinations mentioned above on our website, you can use the search button for some inspiration. Good luck!

What an amazing article Wish I could go to all these places Your suggestion for sightseeing that is not tropical for August around the world? Cities and sightseeing is the focus

Monday 22nd of May 2023

There are many places that are not too warm in August. UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Scandinavia, also pretty much anywhere in Poland or Baltic States. If you are looking for destinations around the world, consider South Africa or Namibia (more nature), and certain parts of Australia (also cities). There are plenty of options. :) Good luck!

Tuesday 25th of April 2023

Beautiful locations, please share more.

Ha ha, I could easily add a few dozen other places to this list. There are so many amazing destinations all over the world, and more places are family-friendly than people tend to think. Our personal favorite countries to visit with kids are Italy, Portugal, and Switzerland. Happy travels!

Thursday 3rd of March 2022

Hi Jurga, thanks for all the suggestions. It's not easy to decide where to go next. We are a family of 4, kids age 8 and 11, and were thinking of Costa Rica, but are also considering Iceland. Thoughts?

Monday 7th of March 2022

Iceland vs. Costa Rica? They are so different... CR is warm, tropical, with beaches and pools, lots of fun outdoor activities, wildlife, and it's rather cheap compared to Iceland. Iceland is amazing but in a very different way - incredible vast landscapes, the most beautiful waterfalls, glaciers, great hot springs and geothermal pools to swim in... But - depending on when you travel - it can be really cold and - in winter - also dark. Even in summer, you'll usually need sweaters, jackets, etc. Iceland is also much more expensive... I think you should do a bit more research and see what interests you the most, or let it depend on the season - Iceland in summer and Costa Rica in winter. But if it's your first family trip, I honestly think that the entire family, and especially the kids will enjoy Costa Rica more, even if just for the weather. But after you do that trip, definitely do Iceland next - it's one of a kind!

Figuring out where to take your family for a vacation is no easy feat when you have a baby or young kids. If you’re like me, you’re thinking about the “family-friendly” factor, and if it will be easy to bring a stroller around.

I’ve looked into where to travel as a young family, and the answers are varied. So, what better way to figure out the best family-friendly travel destinations than to ask my friends?

The list that follows comes from the real experiences of some awesome parents I know. Their travels started as early as when their babies were a few months old. Some of them continue to travel with kids, up to three of them!

I hope you get some great ideas for trip destinations by reading about these real trips that range from US towns and regions to international cities that require a flight.

Let’s jump right in!

Halifax, Nova Scotia (Canada)

Halifax, Nova Scotia, blew away our expectations for a family-friendly travel destination just up north in Eastern Canada. It was our first time flying with a baby as well as our first time traveling in the Canadian Maritime region.

A few family-friendly things we were able to do were eat at restaurants that offered us high chairs, feed our baby anywhere on the Halifax Waterfront without anyone batting an eye, visit the Discovery Centre (science museum geared toward children) and mostly always find a restroom with a changing table (especially public washrooms).

While our hotel wasn’t necessarily a family-friendly hotel, we were delighted with the thoughtful touches for coming with a young child. Reception presented us with a hotel teddy bear upon arrival for our baby, as well as a baby toiletries set. It was so sweet. For more on that, see my review of the Muir Hotel .

You can see all our trip photos, as well as the exact places we went in our family-friendly guide to travel in Halifax . For more inspiration, check out the list of day trips to take from Halifax in Nova Scotia, Canada.

Litchfield Hills, Connecticut

Neither Dan nor I knew much about the Litchfield County region of Connecticut, despite having grown up within a two-hour drive of the area. In my Googling of Litchfield when we decided to go, I found mostly upscale hotels, wedding information, girls’ weekend inspiration and dining guides.

After a three-day long weekend in Litchfield, though, Dan and I realized we had taken the best family-friendly trip we’d taken all summer. We saw lots of families with kids eating ice cream at Arethusa Farm Dairy , walked easy nature trails in the White Monument Nature Reserve with our baby in the baby carrier, visited Kent Falls State Park (older kids can go toward the water or up the steps near the waterfall) and took our stroller all around little towns like Kent.

One relaxing thing we did that children might like is the flower farm at White Flower Farm Store & Gardens . It’s a great place to teach kids about different types of flowers and plants.

For a full list of what to do on a family trip, see our travel guide for the Litchfield County region , and our Litchfield County photo gallery .

New York City (+ Brooklyn)

NYC is an intensely exciting place for travel. Based on our experience going into NYC with our child, we wrote a guide on how to plan a trip to NYC with a baby to show you!

I think you’ll get lots of different opinions on this, and I’d say it depends how you “do” a trip to NYC . The downsides of a family trip to NYC are limited space when it comes to accommodation, LOTS of walking, lots of traffic and subway stations that have LOTS of stairs and might lack elevators.

Aside from these (very crucial) aspects, NYC has loads of activities, sights and landmarks that kids will love. Just take it from my friends who traveled all the way from Dublin, Ireland, to check NYC off their bucket lists, with their toddler ! They stopped at every playground in every park, marveled at the skyline with him and walked for miles (and were very good sports about it) with their stroller.

As someone who grew up as a kid in NYC (that’s me!), I can tell you that my favorite things to do as a kid in the city were visit the Bronx Zoo , the New York Hall of Science (where I had my fifth birthday party) and the New York Aquarium (an absolute must).

Other incredible things to take small kids to in NYC are the Central Park Zoo (I’m quoted in this Best Life article about one secret thing to see there) and the Brooklyn Children’s Museum . If your child is into playgrounds like I was as a kid, check out all the places to play at Brooklyn Bridge Park (there are 9 in total!).

If you’ll be going to NYC soon for your first trip, see my guide to what to know about NYC travel for first-timers .

Northern New Jersey (Essex County and Jersey City)

Now that we live in Northern New Jersey and have chosen to raise our daughter here, all the child-friendly things to do stand out to us. For starters, we know that if there’s a nice day out, we have a heap of choices of family-friendly things to do nearby.

As we mention in our list of the best day trips from NYC , a cute kid-friendly hiking path near us is the Fairy Trail at South Mountain Reservation (Millburn entrance). This easy hiking route is short, mostly flat and lined with tiny “fairy houses” made mostly by children! Plus, look at these gorgeous fall foliage photos of NJ nature reservations to inspire a trip!

For a place the whole family will enjoy, check out the Essex County Turtle Back Zoo . Parents from far and wide bring their kids out for a day at “Turtle Back,” and the highlights for us are the train ride, the giraffes, the bears and the small sea life pavilion.

Venturing closer to NYC will get you to Jersey City and the locally famous Liberty Science Center . This impressive museum has everything to amuse and entertain kids in an educational environment. There’s a planetarium, 3D films, rotating exhibitions and tons of cool things to see, hear and get your hands on.

Point Pleasant Beach, NJ & the Jersey Shore

For a lot of parents (and a lot of friends of mine), a beach vacation is where it’s at. Point Pleasant Beach in New Jersey comes recommended by my friend Jamie AND my friend Jordan .

Jordan told me, “We rent a house down there every year. Jenkinson’s Boardwalk is amazing for kids, and the beach is clean.”

When Jamie and her family rented a house at Point Pleasant, she came in from out of state with a 20-month-old and her three-year-old toddler. We came down for a day to visit with our seven-month-old baby! The beach is wide, the boardwalk has kids everywhere and for kids who like mini golf, there’s no shortage of that.

The Jersey Shore is where most families in the Philly-NJ-NY area choose to vacation for the summer, and you’ll see why.

Cancún, Mexico (Yucatán Peninsula)

Cancun and the Yucatan (where we’ve been to Valladolid and Mérida as a couple) is always going to be a travel favorite for American families. There are lots of resorts that cater to families with children of all ages, and quite a few friends of mine have made this part of Mexico their winter escape vacation destinations .

My friend Lauren stayed at Villa del Palmar in Cancun , and it also has a location in Cabo. Lauren rated this vacation by saying, “It’s a great kid-friendly place, and fantastic for kids with their water slides, and free kids clubs from 9-4!”

As for the “kids clubs,” Lauren said it was a “great escape for the kids from the sun, and for me, (an escape) from them! These resorts have babysitters so you can go out at night.”

Cancun was also the first vacation my friend Kruti took with her young baby. Her family went to Cancun and stayed at The Grand at Moon Palace , an all-inclusive resort that they definitely found to be family-friendly!

Kruti said that the resort had “something for everyone, with lots of activities for kids, and it’s stroller-friendly.” Their baby was only three months, at the time (they are all-star travelers!), so they kept her in her bassinet most of the time with a stroller fan, and she was able to kind of “lounge and hang out alongside us.” The resort also had an amazing kids club and water park.

Last year before the baby, Kruti and her husband went to a different all-inclusive resort in Cancun, with her sister’s two kids (ages 6 and 3, at the time). They stayed at Finest (part of the Excellence collection) and found that it was an awesome resort for having little ones!

At the Finest in Cancun, Kruti says the food was great and always easily accessible with room service options, too. The hotel was super accommodating to allergies and dietary restrictions, which is helpful for children who are eating the hotel food.

Her family also had a swim-up suite (great idea!), which was brilliant for toddler naps: “The kids could be sleeping inside the room, and we’d be right outside with a monitor, hanging poolside!”

Lisbon, Portugal (and other parts of Portugal)

Lisbon is one of my favorite European travel destinations, and Dan and I stayed in Lisbon before road tripping to villages in the south of Portugal . We went back a second time a few years later because we love it so much, and have dreamed of going there as a family one day.

My friend Bona beat me to, it though, and went to Portugal as a family of three with her husband and their baby. They went to Portugal because doing a longer trip is more budget-friendly than the same amount of time in neighboring European countries. Bona said that of all the European countries, Portugal seemed to be the most affordable. I agree!

Additionally, Bona reminded me that there’s very little language barrier in major cities in Portugal: English is widely spoken, so it’s easy for American travelers to get around. Especially with having a baby or children, I think one of the greatest fears for traveling is having an unexpected situation and not being able to communicate about it.

Starting in Lisbon, they took my recommendation for accommodation and stayed at the Lisboans Apartments . Bona detailed all about how it was great for having a baby, which you can read in my review of the Lisboans Apartment-Hotel .

At the Lisboans, Bona and family stayed at a large one-bedroom apartment for about $250 a night. As the Lisboans is located right next to the Alfama District, it was central to nearly everything in Lisbon.

Hotel accommodation in Portugal with a baby

Bona said that regarding hotels in Portugal, “Every place we stayed provided a clean high chair, baby bathtub, and Pack’N’Play . There’s also a service called Let’s Go Baby where you can rent baby gear and they will deliver it to your hotel or Airbnb. They SAVED us when we were looking for a specific baby bottle brand after our baby was rejecting the one we had switched to, just weeks before!” Sounds like she chose right and did her research!

Priority service in Portugal for young families

In Bona’s experience, families with babies can cut the line for any tourist attraction or government facility.

“As soon as we landed in Lisbon, there was an employee pointing young families (including those with toddlers) to an expedited customs line. Then for sightseeing with our child, we got priority for the Belem Monastery, Peña Palace and more!”

Getting around with a baby in Portugal

When I was in Lisbon, it was soon apparent that public transport was plentiful and easy to figure out. Dan and I rented a car in Lisbon to drive to the Algarve, and that was pretty straightforward. Bona and her husband rented a car and noted that they could keep a car seat in the vehicle.

“It’s worth noting that Lisbon is mostly cobblestone and hills, so it’s tough for littles, but a good way to wear them out!” she says.

Restaurants in Portugal if you have kids

Bona said that after dining in restaurants in various parts of Portugal, “They literally don’t care if you have a kid. We went to a nice restaurant, and our table had a high chair waiting for us. We did not expect that! And all the wait staff came to say hi to our baby!”

A few more child-friendly places in Portugal

A couple more places that Bona traveled to in Portugal with her baby were:

This is a historic town outside Lisbon with castles. She did a day trip, but noted that you can easily go longer. Her favorite was the Quinta de Regaleira , “as there was more nature and places for kids to run around (versus Peña Palace, where it’s an indoor guided museum, so there’s lots of standing around and feeling stuffy).”

Morgado do Quintao

This is a vineyard (and also a hotel to stay at) in the Algarve. The restaurant does a lunch with wine pairings on the vineyard under a 2000-year-old tree. “We actually met another couple with a baby who was born the day before our baby!” Bona says.

Chicago, Illinois

While I haven’t gone to Chicago yet as a parent, my friend Marisa from The Neon Tea Party sure has, with her toddler! She cited the Shedd Aquarium and going to a Cubs game as the top things to do with a little kid in tote.

Marisa told me, “ The Field Museum and Shedd Aquarium are next to each other, so you can do them back to back! And, the Cubs game was a blast.” If you’re into baseball, you can bookmark the Cubs games schedule .

Chicago also is home to lots of kid-friendly food options for families, like the places with kids menus in this list of kid-friendly restaurants in Chicago from Eater .

Like many big cities in the US, Chicago makes a great spot for taking your kids. Just make sure to go in spring, summer or fall, unless you have a love for the bitter Chicago winter!

If you’re walking around Chicago and looking for things the parents may enjoy too, be sure to see our guide to the coolest spots for photos in Chicago .

Medellin, Colombia

I know what you’re thinking: Medellin? Colombia? Our friends Alex and Ryan are American expats living in this city with their toddler daughter and have all the kid-friendly recommendations for Medellin. We went to visit them when our daughter was 14 months old and we had a BLAST!

For couples who want to experience South America safely and in a family-friendly way, Medellin is a cool choice. The city is a growing hotspot for international expats and nothing is stopping families with young kids from calling it home!

According to Alex, there are lots of child-friendly things to do in Medellin, and for that reason, it’s an adventurous (yet also safe) place to travel once you have a growing family.

Things to do with your littles include visiting the Sunday Ciclovía (closed roads for walking, running and biking), Chocolate Tour , Botanical Gardens & Parque Explora , Plaza Mayorista market and taking day trips to the countryside, like to Guatape .

For where to stay with a baby or kids in Medellin, we 100% recommend Casacol’s Loma Verde Aparthotel building , which is where we stayed. We got a two-bedroom apartment for four nights, and our daughter had her own room. We cooked in the kitchen so that we could always prepare her food. Our room had a baby bath, travel crib and high chair. See more at our Casacol accommodation review .

We even were able to get a medical referral from the concierge, for a doctor for our toddler when she had a fever (which led us to this list of tips for what to do if your child is sick while traveling ).

Check out this list of the best kid-friendly things to do in Medellin from Alex’s experience.

In collecting this list of kid-friendly vacation destinations, my friend Sarah reminded me about Boston! Boston is somewhere my family went when I was a kid, and we’d stop on the way when we’d visit my cousins in New Hampshire.

From Sarah’s experience visiting Boston with her toddler and baby, she says that, “Boston has a nice children’s museum and aquarium!” Other family-friendly ideas include a whale watching tour , walking in Boston Common and Boston Public Garden, and visiting the cute Make Way for Ducklings sculpture . For older children, follow the “Freedom Trail” walking path through the city. It leads to all the great historic landmarks.

I have two friends ( Ariella and Masha ) who live in Boston with babies and toddlers, too. My friend Ariella noted that, “Things are relatively close by in Boston, which is nice!”

Masha said families visiting Boston for vacation should check out the Boston Children’s Museum , The New England Aquarium in Boston , beautiful towns north of Boston (with lots of ice cream shops!), local coastal beaches and farms all over the greater Boston region. She recommends Connor’s Farm in Danvers, MA, and next to it is the (seasonal) Topsfield Fair , which is really fun for kids.

”We also just went to a whale watch,” Masha said. “I wouldn’t take my “non-chill toddler” there again until he’s older, but if he was chill, it’d be more fun!” To top off her suggestions, Masha said that, “ Southwick’s Zoo is amazing for kids.”

York, Maine (Southern Maine)

Maine is a lovely destination for vacations of any type, but my friend Breanne has the suggestion of York, Maine, as a family-friendly travel idea. York is only 10 miles into Maine from the border with New Hampshire, and if you were to keep driving, you could take the family onward to Portland, where I’ve gone on vacation!

“I grew up going to York, ME, and it was natural that was one of my daughter’s first trips. It has beaches, outdoor restaurants, candy and taffy-making stores and picturesque walks,” Bre says.

As a few highlights or sights to visit, Bre’s list of where to go with her baby or kids near York, Maine, includes candy shop Goldenrods , the easy ocean-side walking trail Marginal Way , Long Sands Beach , Chauncey’s Lobster Pound and the famous Nubble Lighthouse !

Lastly, Breanne’s infant daughter really liked visiting York’s Wild Kingdom , a zoo and amusement park that also has a mini golf course.

The Dominican Republic

Every winter, the white beaches and blue ocean waters of the DR beckon me. And for some of my friends, they chose a family-friendly resort vacation in Punta Cana!

My friend Alex and her husband took their toddler to Finest Punta Cana , an all-inclusive resort also by the Excellence Collection. Traveling with a toddler is far from easy, and staying at a proven place for families like a kid-friendly hotel is key.

Alex’s resort had quite a few specifics just for little kids, from the Imagine Kids Club to three different pool areas, including a splash pool for the smallest children, to mini water parks for older kids. A “Stay & Play” area is the indoor-outdoor location for small kids to play while adults can supervise and stay safe.

There’s also a naptime room, and the “Imagine Lounge” where childcare is available if parents want to soak up some alone time.

We went to the North Coast of The Dominican Republic before we had our daughter. We’d totally go back with her and show her everything we liked about our trip.

My friend Becca and her husband Jacob, who we know from the Remote Year traveling community, went away with their infant daughter for a month, to work remotely and travel in the warm sun of Costa Rica.

They stayed in Playas del Coco , which is a family-friendly area of Costa Rica’s coastline where families with a baby or young kids can hop into a range of tropical activities. To learn more, I’d guide you to this list of family activities to do in Playas del Coco from Letstravelcostarica.com.

But wait, my friend Ariella went to Costa Rica with her baby and her husband around the same time, for more than two weeks! They were looking forward to this family vacation for months , ever since their baby was born.

“We went to Costa Rica partially based on stability, the medical system and the weather,” Ariella told me. “Then, we did not do much while there, which was what we wanted. I would say it was baby-friendly other than the non-major roads, but our daughter seemed cool with bouncing around in her car seat!”

French Riviera & South of France

My world-traveling friend and mom friend Kruti said her and her husband’s France trip with their 9-month-old to St. Tropez and Cannes was great.

“Overall, we felt that France was super baby-friendly!” she said. “There were clean changing facilities everywhere, high chairs at every single restaurant, and baby food options were available at every restaurant and hotel.”

In true European style, she said it felt like kids were encouraged to join so many “seemingly adult activities.” They were able to bring the baby on wine tours, and even to a bunch of day clubs in Cannes and St. Tropez.

“We brought her to Nikki Beach , but a friend of ours went to Gigi, a day club that has a section of their venue called Gigi Circus , a whimsical play area just for kids of all ages!”

Montego Bay, Jamaica

My friend Becca (yes, I have a friend Becca!) went on a family vacation with her young toddler daughter to Palladium in Montego Bay . Jamaica is another favorite for getting away from cold parts of the US during the cooler months of October to March!

Like other resorts, the Palladium has a kids’ club that offers theater shows, face painting, arts and crafts and a baby club for children between ages 1-3. There is supervision from caretaker staff so that parents can get some alone time at the beach or pool.

Atlanta, Georgia

I probably would not have considered Atlanta as a family-friendly city until my friend Melissa mentioned it. She highlighted the walkable areas and spacious restaurants you’ll find in Atlanta that make bringing her three kids there a treat!

Atlanta has “tons of playgrounds, the Georgia Aquarium , Coca-Cola Museum , sports museums and the zoo ,” she said. “Plus, it’s dog-friendly!”

“We had a great day once doing pottery, having lunch and then going to a playground,” Melissa concluded, about a visit to Atlanta with three kids under 10 years old, including a toddler.

What makes a destination “family-friendly”?

I asked myself this as well, as I was writing this list and interviewing my friends (who are very good travelers). What comes to mind for me, as a parent with an infant, are things like restaurants that don’t mind babies, restrooms that have changing tables and being able to freely feed a baby on the go in various spots.

For a toddler, my friend Ariella reminded me that children who can walk will be curious, and will always want to stop and play! “Family-friendly” for having a toddler means factoring that into car trips to stop at kid-friendly places where there are playgrounds.

With older kids (who have opinions), they will want to be part of the vacation planning, and will groan if something isn’t exciting enough. Traveling with older toddlers or elementary-school-aged kids means lots of action, fun and engaging activities.

To “resort” or not “resort?

One thing is for sure and that is that traveling with a baby, a toddler or kids is hard . While Dan and I are not the “resort types” of travelers, we know that a lot of parents want their first (or second or third) trip with a baby or kids to be at a resort because it can be simple. At a resort, especially an all-inclusive, your room ate already includes everything, and there are even kids clubs and babysitting options!

Going to a resort can also be great for traveling with extended family, so that everyone can relax, be near the beach and hit the pool, too.

If you’re not a traveler who books resorts, don’t worry. This list includes big US cities for family-friendly travel ideas, as well as smaller and lesser-known destinations that will keep kids happy and will be easier with a baby.

Domestic or international?

Deciding to travel domestically within your home country or internationally is ultimately up to parents, when looking for a family-friendly vacation! Dan and I love traveling internationally and seeing other parts of the world. We also like staying within the US and visiting friends and family, while doing things that are new for us in those places.

If you choose to take one of your first family trips outside the US, see our guide on how to get your baby a passport .

When I started this blog I had toddlers. It was all about the funny anecdotes all families will recognise as part of the joy of having a young family. Over the years, though life has grown no less amusing, we have added back in some of the more grown up pursuits we used to enjoy before we started a family; mostly that involves travel! Showing our kids the world – and more, watching how they enjoy the world – has been an immensely happy thing to write about, and I feel privileged to now be classed as a family travel blogger. Often I’m asked for recommendations of other family travel bloggers to read for inspiration, or to work with. So a group of us who often work together decided to put together this guide to some of the best UK family travel bloggers. I hope you will find some in this feature who are new to you, and enjoy exploring their adventures with children around the world.

5 Hacks to Pull Off an Affordable Family Adventure

These tips can amp up the value of your outdoorsy vacation.

Courtesy of Hipcamp

Campgrounds at Yosemite and other popular national parks can book up months in advance. Thankfully, there are several online platforms that make finding alternatives easy. Hipcamp has tent sites at farms, ranches, and private camps, plus spots on public lands managed by the U.S. Forest Service and other agencies. It also has listings with stepped-up stays, like an A-frame cabin in Oregon with a swimming hole and a creekside farm in Mississippi where guests can collect eggs for breakfast. Pitchup.com catalogues roughly 100 campgrounds in the U.S., including West Beach Resort, on Orcas Island, Washington, which offers safari-style tents and whale-watching. France-based Huttopia has a handful of glamping locations in Canada and the U.S. that have sturdy wood-and-canvas tents and plentiful amenities. Huttopia Southern Maine , for example, about a half-hour’s drive from Kennebunkport, has a cafe, camp store, swimming pond, and hammocks slung between the pines.

Check out newcomers.

Several new hotel brands are targeting nature lovers with locations close to national and state parks. Many also have gear to rent, including bikes and child-carrier backpacks. Loge has 17 locations open or in development, including one near Montana’s Glacier National Park, which puts guests within striking distance of 700 miles of hiking trails. Field Station now has two locations, one in Moab, Utah and another in California, near Joshua Tree National Park; each has a selection of quad rooms, a gear shop, and a swimming pool. Trailborn Rocky Mountains is close to Rocky Mountain National Park; a sibling property is slated to open in Highlands, North Carolina, in the Blue Ridge Mountains, this summer.

D.I.Y. your hotel.

Recreational vehicles are another option to consider — even if you’ve never driven one before. Most of the rental RVs listed on Outdoorsy can be delivered by the owner to a campground or driveway of your choosing, and many of those who list on RVshare will do the same. If you’re open to driving yourself, one of the best ways to find high-quality parking spots is through Harvest Hosts , which tracks u-pick farms, breweries, drive-ins, and other businesses that welcome overnighters.

Step up your search terms.

Use filters to find some of the most interesting options on Airbnb . Click on “Domes” to narrow the choices to geodesic homes, including one overlooking the Potomac River in the mountains of West Virginia. “Play” turns up a Colorado cabin with an indoor climbing wall and an outdoor kids’ fort. “Treehouses” pulls up an off-grid dwelling on a wooded farm in rural Ohio.

Reconsider the extended-stay hotel.

Often thought of as no-frills, these properties can be surprisingly well appointed, with family-friendly amenities including en suite kitchens, playgrounds, and pools. Atwell Suites , for example, is an IHG Hotels & Resorts brand with locations in Austin, Denver, and Miami that serves free breakfast — including churro doughnuts — and has games and puzzles in the lobby; more than 40 locations are in the works. Choice Hotels has launched the pet-friendly Everhome Suites , with eight locations scheduled to open in 2024, including one in Bozeman, Montana.

A mom who's been traveling with her kids for 19 years opts for cheap, unique accommodations over all-inclusive resorts

Tara Cannon's family has traveled to over 30 countries.
She books unique accommodations over all-inclusive resorts. She said they're cheaper and more fun for kids.
The family has stayed in a tree house, a train car, and a lighthouse for less than $200 a night.

Tara Cannon and her husband Rand have traveled with their two kids for 19 years — since they were babies.

The Vancouver, Canada-based family has visited more than 30 countries. Cannon documents their experiences and provides tips and travel guides for parents on her blogs, Pint Size Pilot and the Better Beyond .

When researching prospects for a trip, Cannon said she doesn't begin with selecting a destination.

"My process usually starts with trying to find an interesting place to stay," Cannon told BI of her trip-planning strategy. "I tend to start with unique accommodations and boutique hotels ."

Many families with young kids tend to book stays at all-inclusive resorts , and Cannon said she sees the appeal.

"They really make it easy for you. There are change tables, and everything is generally safe and set up for you," she said, "At that toddler stage, it is very rewarding. But it's all hands on deck."

The accommodations Cannon has opted for instead of resorts have been larger than typical hotel rooms — giving parents a sense of privacy. Cannon added that it's crucial to ensure the safety features yourself when researching these types of accommodations.

"We could put the baby and toddler in a separate room for naps," she said, "or so they could go to bed early, and we could still enjoy our space."

Cannon found that atypical accommodations were more fun as the kids got older. They've stayed in places with farm animals, wildlife, and firepits on the property.
