About us: Providing The Best Family Travel Reviews
About us
Who We Are
We’re a family of 4 from East Tennessee, but we’ve also lived in Australia, Texas, Missouri, Wisconsin, and Florida. We’ve been traveling with our kids part-time for 12 years across the U.S., Mexico, the Caribbean, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
We’ve been traveling with our kids since they were born, and make several international trips each year, along with a few shorter trips around the United States. We’ve also spent decades working in travel, including running a small travel agency, aviation, and several airlines.
Ideal Vacation
Here’s our perfect vacation:
- Somewhere we haven’t been before (though there are a few places we make exceptions for!)
- Great scenery
- Opportunity for the kids to experience a new and learn something in the process
- Fun things to do in the area
- A break from our current weather, escaping the summer heat or winter cold!
This makes a summer vacation to Switzerland or New Zealand (Winter in NZ) some of our favorite trips.
But don’t worry, not all our vacations are expensive or far away destinations. We’re just as happy camping or making a day or weekend trip to Gatlinburg.
Favorite Destination: Easy choice, the South Island of New Zealand
Second Favorites: Australia and Switzerland
Best Beaches: Turks & Caicos, Maldives
Blog Goal
Our idea for this blog is to cover all forms of family travel: from budget ideas like the best camping destinations to luxury travel like overwater villas in The Maldives (we’ve done both, and still enjoy both!). We’ll also try to give comparisons to help you choose what to do. Feel free to contact us with any questions or suggestions.
Nearly all of our posts are from places we’ve visited and spent a lot of time researching. We prefer researching and booking everything ourselves. We’d rather take a taxi from a cruise port and explore a destination instead of booking an organized cruise excursion. But when we find them, we’ll provide links to highly-rated excursions and day trips!
