Jacs2019-05-14 20:24:192019-10-01 09:59:15Centara Grand Island Resort & Spa - A perfect family-friendly Maldives resortHi, and welcome! We’re glad you stopped by. We are Ed, Jacs, Ernie and George, a travel family on a mission to travel the world together responsibly. We aim to show you that travel with kids is not only possible but also rewarding and enjoyable.
Please, have a browse around and we hope that you will find some inspiration and helpful tips here for your own family travels.
Here are our top picks for best family travel destinations, or you can find write ups of all of the destinations we’ve travelled to as a family here.
Canada is immensely beautiful and diverse and there’s the problem. You will want to see everything! From Banff’s jewel Lake Louise to the extreme sport capital, Whistler, the vast prairie lands of Alberta to the buzzing city life of Vancouver. But never underestimate the distances between destinations, especially if you’re considering a road trip across Canada.
Sri Lanka has been voted best country in the world to visit in 2019 by Lonely Planet. This is quite an accolade, and it is easy to see why. There are so many sides to the country, including Sri Lanka’s fantastic beaches, historic ruins, wildlife-filled jungles and quaint tea estates.
South Africa is one of our favourite places to travel with kids. It is vast with an incredible variety of landscapes and wildlife, and some of the best family safari options anywhere in the world. Simply put, there’s just so much to see and do in South Africa with kids.
Home to the iconic archaeological site Petra, we discovered there’s so much more to Jordan. From the Red Sea to the Dead Sea, the jaw-dropping beauty of Wadi Rum to the Roman ruins of Jerash. Read our Jordan with kids itinerary, and our piece on the best things to do in Jordan.

Jacs2019-10-01 08:41:522019-10-09 21:38:39The best things to do in Banff with kidsFAQ – What is ‘flashpacking’? Put simply, flashpacking is a mix of backpacking and luxury travel, with the independent vibe of backpacking and the budget to allow for some splurges. There will be family-friendly budget and mid-range hotels or hostels, along with the odd boutique hotel or nice Airbnb thrown in. And whilst there could be a 2nd class rail trip or a long bus ride, there’s just as likely to be car hire, taxis or short flights. We love the advantages of independent family travel, and like to mix things up. Read more on flashpacking.
