World Travel Destinations, for Families Who Love Adventure!

Keep scrolling down for a full list of family world travel destinations we cover. Where do we fit in the family travel blog market? We’re not just about travel with kids, we were, but our kids are older now and travelling with them is super easy. They’re still expensive, as I’m sure your kids are, but they’re not hard to travel with. We travel to find the education, sure, but what makes our travel blog unique? I think it’s adventure. We love a challenge and we love going to the places not so many families go.  We’ve been on the road full-time with them since they were 4 and 6, here are our featured world travel destinations and places that we think you’ll love.

You won’t find much content here about beach vacations, but we do enjoy resorts, pools and sand in moderation. Mostly we’re looking for more. If, like us, you want to explore and learn from cultures, food, history, mountains, adventurous activities, unusual family destinations and incredible ways of life, you’re in the right place.

Jump straight to a place in our round the world travel blog. Places and destinations for travel, some easier, some harder, some cheap, some expensive. We’ve spent the last 4+ years travelling full-time round the world to help you travel more and better with your kids. We’ve visited 50+ countries, the kids 35+. Not everything has made it onto the website just yet, these are the biggest and best travel destinations on our blog, we’re constantly adding more.

Where will your family’s next adventure be?

Sri Lanka

One of our very favourite countries, we’ve spent weeks and months touring Sri Lanka, from the popular tourist beaches, to the historic sites to the almost tourist-free north. We’ve been taking the kids from 6 years old and they always ask to go back.

Nepal

Yes, we’ve taken our kids trekking in the Everest region. They were 10 and 12. We’ve also trekked Annapurna and spent weeks in Pokhara and Kathmandu, possibly my favourite city in the world ( but I also say that about Bangkok and London)

Thailand

Thailand is the easiest country in Asia for travellers or holidaymakers. Cheap, beautiful, accessible. One of the world’s favourite travel destinations.

Guatemala

Want to learn about the Maya? Then go to Guatemala! As my kids will tell you, the Maya are still with us today. Explore ancient sites like Tikal above, visit classy Antigua or hang out in backpacker favourites, Lake Atitlan and Flores.

Wales

Wales is my home country and it has a lot to offer. We cover much of south and west Wales on this site.

Vietnam

We’ve visited Vietnam for a month as a couple and lived there for 3 months as a family. A wonderful country, kind, happy people and so much to see, learn and do. A top pick for family travel and a great, cheap, world travel destination.

Istanbul

We can’t list Turkey because we’ve only been to Istanbul, but we spent several weeks there and absolutely loved it. It’s one of the world’s truly great cities.

UK

We list the UK, Wales and London as separate sections because I’m from the UK, we spend a lot of time in London and Wales is the country of my birth. We have a lot of content on the UK so it’s easier for you if we split it up.
