Family Holidays Top Tips

Ashley Lutz on 24 February 2022
Family travel is a hot topic right now, with so many families booking their precious holidays this year, many that are long overdue a nice holiday with guaranteed sunshine and that ‘holiday feel’.

Having a young family myself, I naturally think about and plan my own travels and constantly talk to friends about their trips too. It is also a top enquiry from my clients, so I wanted to share my top tips with you on travelling with a family.

1. Book in advance as much as possible – you will give yourself the ultimate choice for you budget and style of trave, especially in school holidays 2. Be open with where you go – so many lovely places that can give you what you want, some with more choice than others. I can help you navigate where to go and make sure you get the best match possible to what you are looking for maximising experience & family budget 3. If you don’t need to travel peak season then don’t – simple advice but really think about when Easter / half terms and summer holidays are as that can save you a lot of money if you don’t need to travel then 4. Be flexible on dates – if you can look into holidays with a level of flexibility as changing by a day or two can make all the difference 5. Agree as a family your top couple of non-negotiables for your holiday – this helps to narrow down where you go and makes the searching much easier! Is it a must have to be by the beach but have your own pool? Do you mind being remote and driving around more to get more space? 6. Consider travelling short haul and long haul – the thought of a dreamy Caribbean beach might be perfect for you or for what you actually want you might be able to get that same experience a lot closer to home and potentially make your budget work harder for you

I love nothing more than getting to know my clients and finding the absolute best holiday for their needs. My job is to provide the best options showing them how they can get the best value for money for the experience that they want. Booking the perfect family holiday is more than just booking flights and accommodation – it is about choosing the best place that will help you create amazing memories!

I have lots of great ideas for family holidays both in and out of school term time, so get in touch and let me know how I can help you this year with planning your next trip!
