Family travel is one of the largest travel segments, but it continues to evolve. Kids are helping shape the vacations themselves, weighing in on wants and needs, and parents are listening. As such, ALG Vacations is focusing on the meaningful trips and experiences that today’s families are seeking. Here are some sample ideas for booking your next amazing family adventure for your clients.

Japan comes alive for families, with the vibrant pace of Tokyo and the culture that appeals to adults and children alike. Calm, familiar places like the Conrad Tokyo or the Andaz Tokyo Toranomon Hills give the family a balance between their home base and the busy city beyond—which is always within easy reach. They can up their experience with visits to attractions like the Tokyo Tower’s 820-foot-high observation deck or Super Nintendo World, part of the expansive Universal Studios Japan in Osaka.

Hawaii’s beaches are always a draw, and luxury properties like the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa or Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea are perfect for families exploring the islands and their Aloha spirit. Whatever the age of the children, there are exciting options for learning about the islands, from helicopter flights over volcanoes to nighttime swimming with manta rays. Experiences like these are unique to the Hawaiian islands, and will become lifelong memories. 

Mexico’s culture comes alive at Grand Velas Riviera Maya, and the resort provides plenty of natural opportunities for families to connect. In addition to the lovely beaches and area attractions like cenotes, families can enjoy the in-resort movie theater, spend time by the pool, and enjoy the wide variety of restaurants on property.

An escape to London is perfect with paired with staying at a property like The Milestone Hotel & Residences, located close to Kensington Gardens. Here, families can balance things like the Harry Potter Studio Tour and exploring London’s historic neighborhoods with the home-away-from home suite-style accommodations. Parents will find many thoughtful touches for younger travelers, making them feel well cared for.
