7 Best Cruise Lines for Families

Here are seven of the best cruise lines for families, with itineraries that kids and adults will love.

family cruise destinations

With planned itineraries and excursions, a range of activities for all ages, and the ease of unpacking just once while visiting multiple destinations, cruises are a great option for family vacations and multi-generational travel .

“Cruises are ideal for family vacations . For starters, they offer exceptional value, as they’re inclusive of dining, lodging, and transportation to amazing ports around the world. On top of that, many cruise lines offer both family activities and things for kids and parents to do separately — so they can have a fun vacation that suits everyone’s tastes and needs,” Colleen McDaniel, editor-in-chief at Cruise Critic , recently told Travel + Leisure . 

Cruise vacation options range from small-ship expeditions to larger ships with pools , water slides, game rooms, and an array of restaurants, so the choice depends on your family’s interests and capabilities. Here are seven of the best cruise lines for families.

Hurtigruten

This Norway-based cruise company features voyages along the Norwegian coast, ocean cruises, and expeditions to the Caribbean, Antarctica, South America, and more. Exploring the Galápagos with Hurtigruten aboard the newly refitted expedition ship MS Santa Cruz is an ideal family cruise . A variety of cabins are available for singles, couples, and families, with amenities that include a Science Center, library, Sky Deck, fitness room, and hot tub. Trained naturalists lead excursions, hands-on projects, and tours, making the adventures engaging and educational for all ages. An onboard photographer shares tips so that everyone comes home with memorable photos.

Adventures by Disney River Cruises

River cruises offer many advantages, from visiting a variety of destinations to the intimate size of the ships. Recognizing their appeal largely to travelers in the 50+ age range, river cruise companies are taking steps to attract younger travelers. Adventures by Disney and AmaWaterways have teamed up to create river cruises especially designed for families, adding trained Adventure Guides and activities aimed at diverse interests. Disney’s Adventure Guides supervise young kids (minimum age five, suggested age eight and up) and teens with events like welcome parties, movies, and Disney-themed games. Adults-only dinners and events are also on the itinerary.

Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Cruise Line , with destinations around the world, features a wide range of family-friendly programs and activities. For children ages 5-12, there’s Splash Academy, with complimentary activities like sports, creative play, parties, and theme nights. Entourage, for 13-17 year olds, features complimentary supervised activities such as video games, movies, music, art, and a special lounge just for them. While the kids are having fun, adults have a spa, adults-only pool, theater, casino, and private beach club. Opportunities for family togetherness include mini golf, scavenger hunts, family nights, casual dinners, and shore excursions. The Norwegian Prima , the newest ship in their fleet, actually features a three-level race track that all ages will enjoy. 

Disney Cruise Line

Cruising the world with destinations in the Caribbean, Europe, Alaska, Mexico, and more, Disney ships were designed for kids of all ages, with entertainment, dining, and excursions perfect for all members of the family. Live theater, fireworks, character visits, deck parties, pools, waterslides, and nightclubs offer plenty to do. Staterooms are also arranged for families, with privacy curtains, abundant storage, and divided bathrooms. Dining options include restaurants from casual eateries to upscale steakhouses, ice cream and sweets shops, and 24-hour room service. In the Caribbean, Disney’s private island, “Castaway Cay,” features a family beach, snorkeling lagoon, walking trails, boat rentals, shopping, and adults-only Serenity Bay with cabanas and frozen cocktails. On board the ships, adults-only spots offer relaxation and quiet. The new Disney Wish includes an adults-only section on the upper deck, as well as lounges and special restaurants. 

Lindblad and National Geographic

Since 2004, Lindblad Expeditions and National Geographic have collaborated on exploration, research, conservation, and technology, joining forces to provide superb expedition travel experiences. The company offers adventures in world-class expedition vessels that offer both space and togetherness along with daily activities for a range of interests and fitness levels. Onboard naturalists inspire young travelers’ interests in science and nature. Whether paddling a kayak in Alaska, snorkeling in the Galápagos, or cruising in a Zodiac in the Arctic, travelers learn while they enjoy the adventure. Family-friendly dining choices and activity options are ideal for multi-generational groups. Every expedition includes a certified photo instructor and often a National Geographic photographer, so guests take home new skills (along with great photos). 

Royal Caribbean

Families with children of all ages are welcomed and entertained with movie nights under the stars, silent disco parties, archery tournaments, cupcake decorating, laser mazes, and many other activities to share.

For example, Power of Plankton investigates the world of tiny marine organisms and their importance. Art projects, cooking groups, competitions, and programs managed by counselors keep everyone engaged while they learn and have fun at sea.

Character greetings and Broadway-style productions (with a Disney twist) make this 4,000-passenger vessel a hit with the young and the young at heart.

Disney Magic

No. 7: Disney Magic - Disney Cruise Line

On the Disney Magic, AquaLab’s splashy play park plus two waterslides boost Magic’s fun quotient. Even more cool: kids can celebrate Marvel Day at Sea on select itineraries. Magic also includes the adults-only Cove Cafe, making Magic sweeter for everyday heroes: the parents.

Family Vacation Ideas For Cruises Everyone Will Love

Travel on a family vacation cruise like never before.

By Sherri Eisenberg | Published on April 25, 2022

Choosing a vacation destination both you and your kids will love may sound like a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be. The best family vacation ideas are the ones that are a joy for everyone individually and as a group. After all, most families share some similar interests like beaches and sunshine, the great outdoors and adventure, or museums and culture, so there's sure to be a perfect destination for you.

Vacation With The Whole Family

Perfect Day Island CocoCay Bahamas Snorkeling Family

As far as family vacation ideas go, give us a day of fun in the sun and keep the frothy beverages coming — and everyone in my family is thrilled. The good news is that cruise ships deliver these things in spades, all day long.

Case in point: My family of five may have somewhat diverse interests when it comes to movies or how to spend a weekend at home, but we can all rally around a trip that includes plenty of pool splashing and wave-jumping, sandcastle building, and endless frozen drinks — virgin beverages for the "little ones," naturally.

I say "little ones" with tongue firmly in cheek because my teenage stepsons are easily a foot taller than I am. They love the comforts of home while traveling, especially when it comes to food — from pancakes to pizza, chicken fingers, French fries, and soft-serve — these teenagers love their American delights. These guys also marvel at the idea of watching superhero movies on deck under the stars, playing arcade games at sea, and all the amusement park-style rides. For my toddler on the other hand, who hasn't gotten to travel much yet, he loves live music and splash parks, so a warm-weather cruise ticks all the boxes for my family.

As for my husband? Well, the good Dad that he is, he's just happy when we're all together and all three kids are content. And me? This frazzled working mom is as thrilled as the pigs that swim off the coast of the Bahamas when I can leave the cooking, cleaning, and straightening up to someone else. And luckily, the best family cruises have kids' clubs , so there's always the chance for my husband and me to slip away for an evening "out" or at least a post-dinner toast on the balcony while the rest of the family is safely and happily entertained.

Share In Outdoor Cruise Activities & Adventures

For passport-filling families, a Mediterranean adventure may just be the trip you all talk about for years to come . Set sail from Barcelona or Venice, and you can rack up most of the countries in one thrilling week with calls in Italy, France, Spain, and even Greece, Slovenia, or Croatia.

Every day on a Mediterranean cruise is filled with experiences that are the stuff of history-loving families' dreams: Bend your head back as far as it goes to ogle the ceilings of Barcelona's Gaudi-designed cathedral before setting off for a feast of tapas. And to keep the young kids engaged, race up the steps to the Acropolis of Athens and take turns posing as the missing statue of a Greek goddess — it's currently in The British Museum in London, but you can fill in for her and pose for pictures while she's abroad.

Share an unforgettably good pizza in the city that celebrates this culinary art form the most — Naples. Then, set off on a multi-mile trek around the Sicilian port of Palermo while you learn about the history and culture and map out some of the world's best bakeries to sample crisp, creamy cannoli from along the way. From famous art to fascinating historical sites to delicious regional dishes, a cruise here will expand the minds — and palettes — of everyone in your family.

Take In The Moment Soak Up The Sunny Experiences

Tulum Beach in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico

If your family is anything like mine, you'll agree that the best family vacation ideas are the ones that give you a taste of summer when it's frigid back home. Mexican Riviera cruises offer their own magic . With underground cenotes that are perfect for a swim to exploring the clifftop Mayan ruins followed by mind-blowingly good fried fish tacos served up at roadside stands and chips with salsas that will redefine the condiment for you, there's truly something for everyone here.

And, after a week of toasting with margaritas and aquas fresca, you'll probably end up coming home with maracas and piñatas for your little ones and tequila and hot sauce for the grown-ups to remember the adventure by. Sure, everyone will bemoan the fact for years to come that the tacos are just not as good in your hometown, but that means you'll just have to plan another trip back.

Hawaii Oahu Honolulu Coast Waimea Beach

Cruise To A Private Island Water Park

Bahamas Nassau Woman Enjoying the Sunny Beach

One port you won't want to miss when cruising with your kids is the "private island" — a land-based water park filled with all the sun-drenched fun you've been dreaming of since the snow started falling back home. On Royal Caribbean's Perfect Day at CocoCay , for example, you'll hop a tram from the ship that takes you around the Bahamian island. There, the family can relax in the lagoon or at the pool — which is actually the largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean. Or, if you're feeling brave, you and the older kids can sail down the largest waterslide in North America — it's two times taller than the Golden Gate Bridge! If not, the good news is there are 12 other water slides to choose from.

You'll also find a splash park more suited for the little ones, with zip lines, a floating bar, cabanas, a wing bar with live music, snorkeling tours, and even a helium balloon ride. For families like mine, who like their toes in the sand and the breeze in the palm trees, a pool and water park day like this one really is our idea of perfect.

Intrigued by the idea of a Perfect Day at CocoCay with your crew? Book your next family adventure.

Paid moment from American Express and Delta

With complimentary summer-camp-like kids’ programs led by youth counselors, alongside a host of attractions, it's no surprise the best family cruises deliver an environment where every family member can have fun on vacation. In addition to family time, kids get to hang out with other kids while parents and grandparents are free to be adults.

Youngsters are a major part of cruise ship design, from play rooms and teen clubs to crew members who know how to keep young people happy. Choose your ship wisely, because newer and recently renovated ships tend to have the most exciting attractions (check out our list of best cruise ships in the world if you want to know more). Accommodations at sea can be tight, so splurge on the largest cabin or suite you can afford; there is such a thing as too much togetherness on any trip. Beyond that, read our picks for the best cruise lines for families—and get going with booking. (Fares shown are per adult, with reduced fares for kids sharing a cabin.)

Lindblad Expeditions

Lindblad has partnered with National Geographic for a kid-friendly adventure program.

Royal Caribbean

For families, a cruise on Royal Caribbean’s massive ships —some can carry more than 6,000 passengers—is as exciting as going to an amusement park. Collectively, the ships offer ice skating rinks, simulated surfing machines, zip-lines, bumper cars, laser tag, carousels, and thrill slides. The Adventure Ocean program (for ages 3-12) includes fun science experiments, while teens get to party in their own disco. The new largest ship in the world, the 6,998-passenger Wonder of the Seas , boasts a fantastical undersea-themed Wonder Playscape, an outdoor playground with climbing walls, slides, games, and interactive features — such as a mural featuring sea creatures that come to life at the slightest touch. The ship sails from Barcelona and Rome (the port of Civitavecchia) this summer and fall. Seven-night sailings from $952 .

Disney Cruise Line

The hot ticket for Disney Cruise Line fans is the 4,000-passenger Disney Wish , which debuts on July 14 as the line’s fifth ship and first new ship in a decade. All-new features include an animated AquaMouse attraction (a wet ride on a 760-foot track), a Star Wars bar, and an Avengers-themed dining experience. On all of Disney’s ships, princesses and other characters pose for photos and star in full-scale musical productions highlighting Disney hits, like Frozen , eliciting squeals of delight. The family-centric vibe includes waitstaff who are experts in dealing with fussy eaters, and cabins with one-and-a-half bathrooms. The Oceaneer Club and Oceaneer Lab (for ages 3-12) are themed with such attractions as a Marvel Super Hero Academy. Teens also have dedicated spaces onboard: Vibe for teens ages 14-17 and Edge for those between the ages of 11-14. Three-night Bahamas sailings from Port Canaveral from $1,751 in winter 2023.

Carnival Cruise Line

Carnival got a lot of attention last year when it introduced the 5,200-passenger Mardi Gras , with the “wow” feature of the first rollercoaster at sea. Sister ship Carnival Celebration , also with a rollercoaster, debuts in November 2022. The line caters to families in a big way with waterparks and twisting slides, outdoor ropes courses, and video arcades. A “Seuss at Sea” program encourages kids to read Dr. Seuss classics, with The Cat in the Hat appearing at a Green Eggs and Ham Breakfast (complete with themed food). Family Harbor cabins and suites come with access to a private family lounge for breakfast, snacks, and video-game play. Camp Ocean entertains kids ages 2-11 with everything from crafts to dancing to video gaming, with separate clubs for tweens (ages 12-14) and teens (15-17). Seven-night Eastern Caribbean sailings from Port Canaveral on Mardi Gras this summer from $549.

RitzCarlton Yacht

Ritz-Carlton's all-suite Evrima yacht comes staffed with an on-board youth counselor.

Norwegian Cruise Line

Three of Norwegian’s latest ships are topped with two-deck racetracks where older kids and adults can drive go-karts high above the ocean (younger kids can ride as passengers). The line’s newest ship, the 3,099-passenger Norwegian Prima, debuting in Europe in August, has the world’s first three-level shipboard racetrack—plus two thrilling 10-story free-fall slides at Aqua Parks. Video arcades and interactive games also appeal to the family crowd. Norwegian’s Splash Academy (for ages 5-12) youth program entertains kids with creative play and games, while teens can also enjoy the ship’s virtual gaming complex, the Galaxy Pavilion. Norwegian Prima will be cruising from Port Canaveral (near Orlando), beginning in December. Seven-night western Caribbean sailings in winter 2023 from $849.

Princess Cruises

Princess Cruises’ affiliation with Discovery TV makes it an excellent choice for multigenerational families—especially in Alaska. Kids in Camp Discovery (ages 3-12) may participate in science challenges tied to programs such as MythBusters and Shark Week . Wearable OceanMedallion technology lets you locate the whereabouts of teens when they are not in their own beach club, and you can all gather for a virtual scavenger hunt or watch the latest movies on a big screen under the stars. Seven-night Discovery Princess sailings to Alaska this summer from $399.

Lindblad Expeditions

For multigenerational families who prefer a nature-focused, soft-adventure experience, Lindblad partners with National Geographic for a program that has kids collecting plankton, driving inflatable Zodiacs, and otherwise earning points to become a National Geographic Global Explorer. The program is available on cruises in the Galapagos, Alaska, Baja, Mexico, and Antarctica—all places you can spot wild creatures and the kids are encouraged to record sightings in a field book. Nine-night summer sailings in the Galapagos from $7,710.

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection

On the luxury side, Ritz-Carlton’s first yacht , the all-suite Evrima , launches in late August with year-round signature Ritz Kids programming. Kids ages 4-12 get a dedicated space staffed by a full-time youth counselor. The creative program features an environmental element—kids may participate an upcycle art challenge or a water-sampling science experiment. Unlike the complimentary programs on mainstream lines, this one comes with an additional charge: $45 each for three-hour morning and afternoon sessions, and $65 for early-evening programming. Seven-night Caribbean sailings from San Juan from $4,900.

11 Best International Travel Destinations For Family Vacations

By: Author David Chapman

Posted on Last updated: October 14, 2023

Categories DESTINATIONS , FAMILY TRAVEL

Are you ready to explore the world with your family?

While the Caribbean is a popular cruise destination for families, the world of cruising extends far beyond those tropical islands. There are countless exotic itineraries to choose from. And why limit yourself to just a cruise? Combining a land-based itinerary with a cruise can make for a truly unforgettable vacation.

Here are the 11 best international travel destinations for family vacations, regardless of whether you incorporate a cruise. Get ready to embark on a wonderful adventure with your family!

France , with its “joe de vie,” culinary delights, and twinkling lights, is a prime family destination for kids of all ages, and differing interests ranging from history, art, and science to rollercoasters.

While France has many hidden gems, let’s start with the City of Lights and the magical world of Disneyland Paris. Although it is smaller than the US versions in California or Florida, it’s still a fun excursion for your little ones.

family cruise destinations

Then head to the Louvre museum to see the Mona Lisa in all her enigmatic glory. Next, enjoy panoramic views from the Eifel Tower, tour ancient Notre Dame, and explore the marvels of science in the Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie.

Tip: Although visiting Paris is a must, it’s not a cheap family destination, and France has so much more to offer! 

So, consider traveling to the idyllic French countryside to see chic chateaus and explore the breathtaking Côte d’Azur. Then head to the lavender-hued fields in Provence, and explore the region’s ancient Roman ruins and the historic beaches of Normandy. 

family cruise destinations

Vietnam is an incredible, warm, and welcoming family destination, especially if your kids like the great outdoors, history, nature, and building sandcastles on the beach! 

There are so many unique regions to explore, especially the iconic Mekong Delta, which is perfect for adventurous kids. They can enjoy a canoe ride in the picturesque small village, play on the beach, and learn about the history of the Vietnam war, so it’s both educational and fun !

Other enjoyable activities, especially for adventurous kids, include crawling through the iconic Cu Chi tunnels in Ho Chi Minh like Vietnamese soldiers. However, you might battle to get them out of there as they will love it that much!

Best International Travel Destinations For Family

Then explore the 15th-century delights of Hoi An with its charming pagodas, ancient shrines, and vibrant tea houses dotted along the way. You can also chat with the friendly locals and ask for recommendations for the best silk clothing and “banh mi” in town!

Tip: using strollers in Vietnam is incredibly difficult. Instead, travel with a toddler or baby carrier if you have small children.

Norway is frequently ranked as one of the world’s happiest and most content countries. With unmatched natural beauty, majestic mountains, fjords, roaming reindeer, and bucket-list northern lights. So, it’s no wonder Norway is one of the best international travel destinations for families!

If you are looking for a kiddie-friendly destination, look no further, as kids rule the roost in this ancient Viking land. No one will bat an eyelid in cities like Oslo when they clamber over the Frogmore Park sculptures, sway over the sloped Opera House roof, or an ancient Viking ship!

family cruise destinations

Other must-see destinations include the historic Trondheim, its picturesque timber-clad fisherman warehouses, and historic Røros, Norway’s most beautiful town Ålesund with its Art Nouveau multi-hued buildings adorned with medieval turrets and ornaments.

Norway offers a wide array of fun outdoor activities for active families, from skiing and tobogganing in winter to kayaking, hiking, biking, and river rafting in summer. Even in Norway’s major cities, the great outdoors is always easily accessible.

If your kids love wildlife, head to the mountainous Langedrag farm. Home to wolves, lynxes, and foxes, and depending on the time of the year, they could enjoy cuddling with little wolf pups, so it’s well worth a visit.

Other great family destinations towards the west include Bergen, with its iconic fjords, via the spectacular and scary Trollstigen (Trolls Ladder) road, including whale watching and dog slaying in the north, or polar bear encounters in the North Pole’s Svalbard archipelago.

Tip:   if you are traveling on a tight budget, and your kids love camping, Norway’s freedom-to-roam act means you can pitch up a tent just about anywhere.

4. Singapore

Singapore might be a small country, but it is jam-packed with great family vacation activities and delicious food. It is a rich cultural melting pot of Chinese, Indian, and Malay influences just waiting to be explored.

family cruise destinations

While there are many fun activities, including must-see family-friendly attractions like Sentosa Island, the futuristic, incredible Gardens by The Bay, and a Universal Studios tour.

It is also incredibly easy to get around with their efficient subway. As English is commonly spoken, most signs are also written in English, so you should not get lost, which is a bonus in any foreign country!

Tip:   Singapore is also a prime destination for foodie families. So, no visit to this beautiful country is complete without tasting the vast array of local delicacies in a hawker center! 

5. Costa Rica

Costa Rica is undoubtedly one of Central America’s most popular family-friendly destinations with its outstanding natural beauty, pristine beaches, lush tropical forests, and biodiversity. It caters to parents who want to relax and kids of all ages who love new adventures.

There are several great resorts dotted throughout the country with great outdoor adventures. Popular activities include ziplining through forest canopies, hiking to spectacular waterfalls, climbing volcanoes, horse-riding, and life-affirming dips in hot springs, to mention but a few.

family cruise destinations

Other family-friendly activities include exploring stunning national parks and picking up shells on the Pacific and Caribbean beaches. Or learning to surf at the Peaks N Swell surf camp and getting to know the friendly locals who are truly happy to stop for a quick chat!

Tip :  while kids have a ton of energy, they get cranky by the end of the day, which usually ends with meltdowns. So, schedule thrilling adventures for the morning. And, let them nap, play on the sunny beach, or in the pool during the afternoons.

6. Thailand

Thailand is hands down one of the best international travel destinations for kids! Apart from the diverse range of fun family activities, the friendly locals are the country’s greatest asset, so no wonder it is called the country with a thousand smiles!

family cruise destinations

There is an abundance of family-friendly activities. Moreover, Thailand is steeped in history and rich in cultural and religious diversity, with bustling Bangkok streets, delicious food, and stunning deserted beaches. 

Your kids can experience the thrill of elephant encounters and snorkeling in the ocean. Visit Buddhist temples, explore lush rolling hills, enjoy spectacular evening fire shows, or celebrate Songkran and Yi Peng festivals with the locals.

Other incredible attractions include the historic temples of Chiang Mai, the Patera Elephant Farm, and the spectacular island of Ko Samui with its immaculate white beaches. And the best Thai massages you will find anywhere!

Tip: the best way to explore Thailand is by overnight train or bus ride. You will see a lot more of the spectacular countryside and truly connect with the friendly locals who always love welcoming foreign tourists to their beautiful country. 

Even though this Caribbean tropical paradise was off-limits for US tourists for some time, there was a brief window when restrictions were relaxed and U.S. cruise travelers could visit Cuba . That window slammed shut in 2016. For now, we are leaving this as a placeholder in hopes that American tourists will once again have the opportunity to visit.

While there are currently no cruises from the US to Cuba, flying there is ideal. You will need a lot of time to explore this incredible country’s stunningly diverse landscapes.

It’s the perfect laid-back place to spend relaxing days in the sun on the beach with warm aqua-hued water that is perfect for swimming. Apart from the country’s delicious food, lively salsa music, dancing, and friendly people, there’s a wide range of kid-friendly activities to enjoy.

family cruise destinations

Cuba is well suited to active families, with fun outdoor activities like mountain biking, fishing, horseback riding, ziplining, or exploring the stunning Viñales caves. 

This Caribbean Island is incredibly popular due to its outstanding landscapes ranging from coastal areas and idyllic rivers to majestic alpine peaks with a diverse range of colorful fauna and flora in protected areas like botanic gardens and national parks.

Tip : Cuba is one Caribbean island where U.S. dollars are most definitely not freely accepted. Nor can American visitors cannot use their debit/credit cards in Cuba.

8. United Kingdom

This list of the best international travel destinations for families would be incomplete if it did not include the United Kingdom . And there are far more local attractions and kid-friendly activities than Harry Potter movie tours!

family cruise destinations

Apart from exploring London’s iconic royal landmarks like Buckingham Palace, or the historic Tower of London, this buzzing metropole has a wide variety of fun activities for kids ranging from Legoland with its 150 rides to viewing sharks at Europe’s deepest Aquarium, aptly named “The Deep.”

London is also famous for its outstanding variety of tasty food from all over the world. In addition, it has some of the top UK Saturday markets to explore. 

The UK has so much more to offer than merely London. So, venture out to Stonehenge for a quick day trip or go on a safari at Longleat, which is consistently voted as one the best, and oldest safari parks outside Africa.

Tip: if you are traveling with small kids, it would be helpful to know that strollers are known as pushchairs in the UK, cribs are called cots, and diapers are known as nappies. 

Wearing layered clothing is a must as this region can have three seasons in one day, so be well prepared, and have fun!

Italy , with its moreish comfort food, spectacular architecture, illustrious history, and warm and welcoming people, is one of my favorite international travel destinations. And it should be on everyone’s bucket list! 

With diverse landscapes ranging from the cobbled streets of ancient Rome leading to the stately Colosseum, the Instagram-worthy Leaning Tower of Pisa, breathtaking alpine peaks, and scenic Venetian landscape to Tuscany’s sun-kissed beaches on the Italian Riviera. 

Although it does not matter whether you explore the North or the South. There are several kid-friendly attractions throughout Italy, like fun “Arte al Sole” workshops where your kiddos can learn to make their own pasta, make chocolate, or create their own works of art.

family cruise destinations

Alternatively, if you prefer a more laid-back vacation where your kids can master the fine art of riding horses in the countryside or relaxing in the pool. Rent a farmhouse in the picturesque rolling hills of Tuscany. 

Then head over to the Italian Riviera with its charming array of old villages, incredible restaurants, and one of the most outstanding coastlines in Europe. With little hidden gems like Positano, Cinque Terre, and Portofino dotted along the way.

Tip: bug spray is a must if you plan a summer vacation in Italy! Especially if you are traveling with a tiny baby, mosquito bites can easily trigger nasty allergic reactions.

Once you have finalized your travel itinerary, book your main attractions and kid-friendly tours well in advance. Even if you are not exploring Italy during its pique tourist season. Italy is an all-year-round prime travel destination, so queues are generally long.

With its all-year-round balmy weather, tasty tapas, welcoming locals, and kid-friendly attractions, Spain offers families an abundance of fun activities!

Apart from the science museums, and spectacular beaches, it’s a prime destination for soccer fans with the likes of FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. And your kids can experience the excitement of watching a live soccer match if you book tickets well in advance.

Alternatively, suppose you plan to visit Barcelona. In that case, you can join a Camp Nou Stadium tour, a truly unforgettable experience for budding soccer stars.

Then head to Barcelona’s Gaudi Park to explore its rich abundance of colorful art scattered around the park’s lush landscape.

family cruise destinations

And remember to pop into a chocolate museum to indulge in Spain’s finest sweet treats. Then meander through Barcelona’s charming neighborhoods, and catch your breath at Park Guell. Finally, explore the tree-lined La Rambla and the spine-tingling ancient Gothic Quarter.

Once you have had your fill-in Barcelona , consider adding Madrid to your travel itinerary. Apart from being Spain’s capital, this bustling city is a prime family vacation destination with beautiful plazas, fun amusement parks, and stunning architecture.

The only downside of visiting Madrid is that you might need help to choose between the abundance of tourist attractions. Like the Plaza Mayor and the outstanding Prado Museum, which showcases the nation’s finest works of art.

Madrid is also a budget-friendly destination, and most locals speak English, so it’s easy to communicate and get around, which is a bonus when traveling to any international destination.

Tip: apart from major cities like Madrid and Barcelona, most Spanish towns have traditional siestas from 2-5pm each day when most shops are closed. So, don’t be surprised if you encounter closed stores from time to time in rural towns.

You will also notice that most restaurants don’t offer children’s menus. However, kiddie-friendly dishes like baguette sandwiches ( bocadillos ), potato omelets ( tortilla Española ), and tomato and garlic enthused fresh bread ( pan con tomate ) will satisfy many of the pickiest little eaters.

11. New Zealand

Home to breathtaking dramatic landscapes, snow-capped mountains, lush valleys, and enchanting Hobbit houses. New Zealand is a one-of-a-kind travel destination. Especially for active families who love the great outdoors.

family cruise destinations

New Zealand is incredibly safe and laid back. It offers numerous fun activities and attractions, including well-maintained playgrounds and baby-changing amenities, so it’s ideal for families with small children.

And should you find yourself in Auckland, New Zealand’s stunning capital city, head to the Sky Tower, the tallest structure in the entire Southern Hemisphere, for breathtaking views of the city and its surrounding islands.

Because many of New Zealand’s main attractions are far apart. The best way to quickly get around is by hiring a car once you arrive or booking a guided tour that allows you to relax and enjoy the magnificent scenery.

No trip to New Zealand is complete without experiencing the sheer magic of the Middle earth film location for The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit Trilogy. Your kids will love exploring Hobbiton, and its charming little homes, with rickety little doors carved into the lush hills.

Then head to the Hot Water Beach, located in Coromandel, where your kids can build their own little hot water pools with warm thermal spring water.

Even though there are numerous places to spot dolphins and whales in New Zealand. One of my favorite viewing spots is Kaikoura, on the beautiful South Island coastline, with an abundance of characterful seals, playful dolphins, gigantic diving sperm whales, and diverse birdlife. 

Kaikoura’s water can be choppy at times, especially for small kids, so a serene whale-watching boat tour in the picturesque Bay of Islands during the summertime is a great alternative.

A visit to the “Te Papa” Museum of New Zealand in Wellington is a must! Especially if you want to learn more about New Zealand’s rich culture and fascinating history with fun, play-based displays for kids under 12 and spell-bounding storytelling sessions.

Tip: New Zealand is a costly travel destination. While your kids aged five or younger will mostly be able to participate in fun activities for free, you will need to pay entry fees for your older kids. So, budget accordingly, and have fun!

Closing Thoughts

family vacations are a great way to create unforgettable memories and bond with your loved ones. Whether you choose to incorporate a cruise or not, you can use any of these 11 international travel destinations for wonderful family adventures. So, start planning!

Set Sail On This Captivating Cruise Experience Around Captiva Island In Florida

David Reeve

Ever feel like the best adventures could be lurking in your own backyard?

Florida’s Captiva Island is a sparkling gem that offers just that—a chance to embark on an escapade that’s both close to home and far from your everyday.

Whether you’re a seasoned local or a curious visitor, the promise of a delightful day on the water with Captiva Cruises is bound to pique your interest.

Let’s discover a different side of the Sunshine State as we glide along the tranquil waters surrounding Captiva Island!

captiva cruises 1

Captiva Cruises delivers an experience that combines the thrill of the sea with the discovery of natural splendors and the warmth of Gulf Coast hospitality.

Every excursion with Captiva Cruises kicks off with a sense of anticipation as you board one of their signature vessels.

Picture a day filled with sun-kissed skin, sea-salt hair, and the gentle rocking of the boat as you set out to explore.

This isn’t just a cruise but a gateway to an array of Floridian wonders.

captiva cruises 2

Seafaring adventurers, rejoice!

Your options for exploration are as diverse as the marine life beneath the waves.

Opt for a shelling cruise to nearby islands where the sands are lined with treasures waiting to be unearthed.

Each shell is a free souvenir from Mother Nature, and the variety is simply astounding.

captiva cruises 3

Eco-tours are another crowd-pleaser, offering a glimpse into the vibrant ecosystems that thrive here.

Dolphins have a way of turning even the most sophisticated traveler into a wide-eyed kid again.

There you are, cruising along the water, when these aquatic acrobats decide to put on an impromptu show right on your boat’s bubbly track.

It’s like they know they’re the stars of the sea and we’re just the paparazzi in life jackets, hoping for a selfie.

captiva cruises 4

Now, if you’re holding out for something a little more Zen, keep your eyes peeled for the manatees.

These gentle giants are the ocean’s version of a lazy Sunday brunch, just floating through life at a pace that says, “I’ll get there when I get there.”

If one glides by, it’s basically the universe telling you to slow down and soak in the moment.

Bird watchers, you’re in for a tweet…I mean, treat!

This place is like a bird’s version of Times Square on New Year’s Eve, minus the giant glittery ball and the noise.

Feathered friends of every color and call are hanging out and strutting their stuff.

Bring your binoculars, because you’ll want a close-up of the avian A-listers that call this ecosystem their home.

captiva cruises 5

Sunset cruises are the jewel in Captiva Cruises’ crown.

You’re there, the sun is doing that thing where it can’t decide between blush pink and fiery orange, and everything is so beautiful you start wondering if you accidentally walked into a painting.

The water’s calm, like it got the memo to behave because you brought a date and you’re trying to be smooth.

It’s not just a sunset but a performance art by Mother Nature, and she’s outdone herself.

You can’t help but feel a bit smug because you’re in on the secret—this is the place to be when the day decides to call it quits.

And if you’re sharing this with someone special?

Well, let’s just say if the evening had a mic, it would drop it right into the sea.

But let’s not litter, the fish don’t need a mic, they’ve got bubbles and stuff.

So, you grab a drink, toast to the sky’s kaleidoscope, and let the moment sink in.

This isn’t just a cruise but a love letter to the end of the day, and you’ve got front-row seats.

captiva cruises 6

Feeling a bit more adventurous?

Embark on a sailing trip to Cabbage Key or Useppa Island.

These little-known locales are steeped in history and charm.

Enjoy a leisurely lunch at a rustic inn or take a stroll along paths that whisper tales of bygone eras.

Educational jaunts are not only informative but also a blissful way to spend the day.

Learn about the cultural and natural history of the area from knowledgeable guides who are passionate about their home turf.

Safety is paramount on all Captiva Cruises’ outings.

You’ll feel secure knowing that the capable crew is well-trained and the vessels are maintained to the highest standards.

Comfort is also key, with amenities to ensure your journey is as pleasant as possible.

Customized private charters are available for those seeking a more personalized adventure.

Celebrate a special occasion, or simply treat yourself to a day of luxury on the water.

  • Its complimentary, year-round staffed kids club, Nautilus Club, hosts children ages six to 17.
  • Families can enjoy off-ship activities like 41-foot super-raft rides around Kona.

The ship also helps arrange kid-friendly shore excursions enjoyable for parents too, including private tours of Mazatlán in an open-air car or 41-foot super-raft rides around Kona for the "ultimate blend of luxury and adventure," per the company's website .

You won't find any kids menus at the restaurants serving food that's "largely European and indulgent," but they do provide highchairs, according to Bloomberg .

Travel Itinerary For One Week in Moscow: The Best of Moscow!

I just got back from one week in Moscow. And, as you might have already guessed, it was a mind-boggling experience. It was not my first trip to the Russian capital. But I hardly ever got enough time to explore this sprawling city. Visiting places for business rarely leaves enough time for sightseeing. I think that if you’ve got one week in Russia, you can also consider splitting your time between its largest cities (i.e. Saint Petersburg ) to get the most out of your trip. Seven days will let you see the majority of the main sights and go beyond just scratching the surface. In this post, I’m going to share with you my idea of the perfect travel itinerary for one week in Moscow.

Moscow is perhaps both the business and cultural hub of Russia. There is a lot more to see here than just the Kremlin and Saint Basil’s Cathedral. Centuries-old churches with onion-shaped domes dotted around the city are in stark contrast with newly completed impressive skyscrapers of Moscow City dominating the skyline. I spent a lot of time thinking about my Moscow itinerary before I left. And this city lived up to all of my expectations.

7-day Moscow itinerary

Travel Itinerary For One Week in Moscow

Day 1 – red square and the kremlin.

Metro Station: Okhotny Ryad on Red Line.

No trip to Moscow would be complete without seeing its main attraction. The Red Square is just a stone’s throw away from several metro stations. It is home to some of the most impressive architectural masterpieces in the city. The first thing you’ll probably notice after entering it and passing vendors selling weird fur hats is the fairytale-like looking Saint Basil’s Cathedral. It was built to commemorate one of the major victories of Ivan the Terrible. I once spent 20 minutes gazing at it, trying to find the perfect angle to snap it. It was easier said than done because of the hordes of locals and tourists.

As you continue strolling around Red Square, there’s no way you can miss Gum. It was widely known as the main department store during the Soviet Era. Now this large (yet historic) shopping mall is filled with expensive boutiques, pricey eateries, etc. During my trip to Moscow, I was on a tight budget. So I only took a retro-style stroll in Gum to get a rare glimpse of a place where Soviet leaders used to grocery shop and buy their stuff. In case you want some modern shopping experience, head to the Okhotny Ryad Shopping Center with stores like New Yorker, Zara, and Adidas.

To continue this Moscow itinerary, next you may want to go inside the Kremlin walls. This is the center of Russian political power and the president’s official residence. If you’re planning to pay Kremlin a visit do your best to visit Ivan the Great Bell Tower as well. Go there as early as possible to avoid crowds and get an incredible bird’s-eye view. There are a couple of museums that are available during designated visiting hours. Make sure to book your ticket online and avoid lines.

Day 2 – Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the Tretyakov Gallery, and the Arbat Street

Metro Station: Kropotkinskaya on Red Line

As soon as you start creating a Moscow itinerary for your second day, you’ll discover that there are plenty of metro stations that are much closer to certain sites. Depending on your route, take a closer look at the metro map to pick the closest.

The white marble walls of Christ the Saviour Cathedral are awe-inspiring. As you approach this tallest Orthodox Christian church, you may notice the bronze sculptures, magnificent arches, and cupolas that were created to commemorate Russia’s victory against Napoleon.

How to Get a Decent Haircut in a Foreign Country

Unfortunately, the current Cathedral is a replica, since original was blown to bits in 1931 by the Soviet government. The new cathedral basically follows the original design, but they have added some new elements such as marble high reliefs.

Home to some precious collection of artworks, in Tretyakov Gallery you can find more than 150,000 of works spanning centuries of artistic endeavor. Originally a privately owned gallery, it now has become one of the largest museums in Russia. The Gallery is often considered essential to visit. But I have encountered a lot of locals who have never been there.

Famous for its souvenirs, musicians, and theaters, Arbat street is among the few in Moscow that were turned into pedestrian zones. Arbat street is usually very busy with tourists and locals alike. My local friend once called it the oldest street in Moscow dating back to 1493. It is a kilometer long walking street filled with fancy gift shops, small cozy restaurants, lots of cute cafes, and street artists. It is closed to any vehicular traffic, so you can easily stroll it with kids.

Day 3 – Moscow River Boat Ride, Poklonnaya Hill Victory Park, the Moscow City

Metro Station: Kievskaya and Park Pobedy on Dark Blue Line / Vystavochnaya on Light Blue Line

Voyaging along the Moscow River is definitely one of the best ways to catch a glimpse of the city and see the attractions from a bit different perspective. Depending on your Moscow itinerary, travel budget and the time of the year, there are various types of boats available. In the summer there is no shortage of boats, and you’ll be spoiled for choice.

exploring Moscow

Travel Itinerary for One Week in Beijing

If you find yourself in Moscow during the winter months, I’d recommend going with Radisson boat cruise. These are often more expensive (yet comfy). They offer refreshments like tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and, of course, alcoholic drinks. Prices may vary but mostly depend on your food and drink selection. Find their main pier near the opulent Ukraine hotel . The hotel is one of the “Seven Sisters”, so if you’re into the charm of Stalinist architecture don’t miss a chance to stay there.

The area near Poklonnaya Hill has the closest relation to the country’s recent past. The memorial complex was completed in the mid-1990s to commemorate the Victory and WW2 casualties. Also known as the Great Patriotic War Museum, activities here include indoor attractions while the grounds around host an open-air museum with old tanks and other vehicles used on the battlefield.

How I Planned My Trip to Vietnam

The hallmark of the memorial complex and the first thing you see as you exit metro is the statue of Nike mounted to its column. This is a very impressive Obelisk with a statue of Saint George slaying the dragon at its base.

Maybe not as impressive as Shanghai’s Oriental Pearl Tower , the skyscrapers of the Moscow City (otherwise known as Moscow International Business Center) are so drastically different from dull Soviet architecture. With 239 meters and 60 floors, the Empire Tower is the seventh highest building in the business district.

The observation deck occupies 56 floor from where you have some panoramic views of the city. I loved the view in the direction of Moscow State University and Luzhniki stadium as well to the other side with residential quarters. The entrance fee is pricey, but if you’re want to get a bird’s eye view, the skyscraper is one of the best places for doing just that.

Day 4 – VDNKh, Worker and Collective Farm Woman Monument, The Ostankino TV Tower

Metro Station: VDNKh on Orange Line

VDNKh is one of my favorite attractions in Moscow. The weird abbreviation actually stands for Russian vystavka dostizheniy narodnogo khozyaystva (Exhibition of Achievements of the National Economy). With more than 200 buildings and 30 pavilions on the grounds, VDNKh serves as an open-air museum. You can easily spend a full day here since the park occupies a very large area.

Moscow sights

Places to Visit in Barcelona That Aren’t Beaches

First, there are pavilions that used to showcase different cultures the USSR was made of. Additionally, there is a number of shopping pavilions, as well as Moskvarium (an Oceanarium) that features a variety of marine species. VDNKh is a popular venue for events and fairs. There is always something going on, so I’d recommend checking their website if you want to see some particular exhibition.

A stone’s throw away from VDNKh there is a very distinctive 25-meters high monument. Originally built in 1937 for the world fair in Paris, the hulking figures of men and women holding a hammer and a sickle represent the Soviet idea of united workers and farmers. It doesn’t take much time to see the monument, but visiting it gives some idea of the Soviet Union’s grandiose aspirations.

I have a thing for tall buildings. So to continue my travel itinerary for one week in Moscow I decided to climb the fourth highest TV tower in the world. This iconic 540m tower is a fixture of the skyline. You can see it virtually from everywhere in Moscow, and this is where you can get the best panoramic views (yep, even better than Empire skyscraper).

top things to do in Moscow

Parts of the floor are made of tempered glass, so it can be quite scary to exit the elevator. But trust me, as you start observing buildings and cars below, you won’t want to leave. There is only a limited number of tickets per day, so you may want to book online. Insider tip: the first tour is cheaper, you can save up to $10 if go there early.

Day 5 – A Tour To Moscow Manor Houses

Metro Station: Kolomenskoye, Tsaritsyno on Dark Green Line / Kuskovo on Purple Line

I love visiting the manor houses and palaces in Moscow. These opulent buildings were generally built to house Russian aristocratic families and monarchs. Houses tend to be rather grand affairs with impressive architecture. And, depending on the whims of the owners, some form of a landscaped garden.

During the early part of the 20th century though, many of Russia’s aristocratic families (including the family of the last emperor) ended up being killed or moving abroad . Their manor houses were nationalized. Some time later (after the fall of the USSR) these were open to the public. It means that today a great many of Moscow’s finest manor houses and palaces are open for touring.

one week Moscow itinerary

20 Travel Tips I’ve Learned From Travelling The World

There are 20 manor houses scattered throughout the city and more than 25 in the area around. But not all of them easily accessible and exploring them often takes a lot of time. I’d recommend focusing on three most popular estates in Moscow that are some 30-minute metro ride away from Kremlin.

Sandwiched between the Moscow River and the Andropov Avenue, Kolomenskoye is a UNESCO site that became a public park in the 1920’s. Once a former royal estate, now it is one of the most tranquil parks in the city with gorgeous views. The Ascension Church, The White Column, and the grounds are a truly grand place to visit.

You could easily spend a full day here, exploring a traditional Russian village (that is, in fact, a market), picnicking by the river, enjoying the Eastern Orthodox church architecture, hiking the grounds as well as and wandering the park and gardens with wildflower meadows, apple orchards, and birch and maple groves. The estate museum showcases Russian nature at its finest year-round.

If my travel itinerary for one week in Moscow was a family tree, Tsaritsyno Park would probably be the crazy uncle that no-one talks about. It’s a large park in the south of the city of mind-boggling proportions, unbelievable in so many ways, and yet most travelers have never heard of it.

The palace was supposed to be a summer home for Empress Catherine the Great. But since the construction didn’t meet with her approval the palace was abandoned. Since the early 1990’s the palace, the pond, and the grounds have been undergoing renovations. The entire complex is now looking brighter and more elaborately decorated than at possibly any other time during its history. Like most parks in Moscow, you can visit Tsaritsyno free of charge, but there is a small fee if you want to visit the palace.

Moscow itinerary

How To Stop Procrastinating When Trip Planning

Last, but by no means least on my Moscow itinerary is Kuskovo Park . This is definitely an off-the-beaten-path place. While it is not easily accessible, you will be rewarded with a lack of crowds. This 18th-century summer country house of the Sheremetev family was one of the first summer country estates of the Russian nobility. And when you visit you’ll quickly realize why locals love this park.

Like many other estates, Kuskovo has just been renovated. So there are lovely French formal garden, a grotto, and the Dutch house to explore. Make sure to plan your itinerary well because the estate is some way from a metro station.

Day 6 – Explore the Golden Ring

Creating the Moscow itinerary may keep you busy for days with the seemingly endless amount of things to do. Visiting the so-called Golden Ring is like stepping back in time. Golden Ring is a “theme route” devised by promotion-minded journalist and writer Yuri Bychkov.

Having started in Moscow the route will take you through a number of historical cities. It now includes Suzdal, Vladimir, Kostroma, Yaroslavl and Sergiev Posad. All these awe-inspiring towns have their own smaller kremlins and feature dramatic churches with onion-shaped domes, tranquil residential areas, and other architectural landmarks.

Two Weeks In Thailand: The Perfect 14-Day Itinerary

I only visited two out of eight cities included on the route. It is a no-brainer that Sergiev Posad is the nearest and the easiest city to see on a day trip from Moscow. That being said, you can explore its main attractions in just one day. Located some 70 km north-east of the Russian capital, this tiny and overlooked town is home to Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, UNESCO Site.

things to do in Moscow in seven days

Sergiev Posad is often described as being at the heart of Russian spiritual life. So it is uncommon to see the crowds of Russian pilgrims showing a deep reverence for their religion. If you’re traveling independently and using public transport, you can reach Sergiev Posad by bus (departs from VDNKh) or by suburban commuter train from Yaroslavskaya Railway Station (Bahnhof). It takes about one and a half hours to reach the town.

Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius is a great place to get a glimpse of filling and warming Russian lunch, specifically at the “ Gostevaya Izba ” restaurant. Try the duck breast, hearty potato and vegetables, and the awesome Napoleon cake.

Day 7 – Gorky Park, Izmailovo Kremlin, Patriarch’s Ponds

Metro Station: Park Kultury or Oktyabrskaya on Circle Line / Partizanskaya on Dark Blue Line / Pushkinskaya on Dark Green Line

Gorky Park is in the heart of Moscow. It offers many different types of outdoor activities, such as dancing, cycling, skateboarding, walking, jogging, and anything else you can do in a park. Named after Maxim Gorky, this sprawling and lovely park is where locals go on a picnic, relax and enjoy free yoga classes. It’s a popular place to bike around, and there is a Muzeon Art Park not far from here. A dynamic location with a younger vibe. There is also a pier, so you can take a cruise along the river too.

The Kremlin in Izmailovo is by no means like the one you can find near the Red Square. Originally built for decorative purposes, it now features the Vernissage flea market and a number of frequent fairs, exhibitions, and conferences. Every weekend, there’s a giant flea market in Izmailovo, where dozens of stalls sell Soviet propaganda crap, Russian nesting dolls, vinyl records, jewelry and just about any object you can imagine. Go early in the morning if you want to beat the crowds.

All the Bulgakov’s fans should pay a visit to Patriarch’s Ponds (yup, that is plural). With a lovely small city park and the only one (!) pond in the middle, the location is where the opening scene of Bulgakov’s novel Master and Margarita was set. The novel is centered around a visit by Devil to the atheistic Soviet Union is considered by many critics to be one of the best novels of the 20th century. I spent great two hours strolling the nearby streets and having lunch in the hipster cafe.

Conclusion and Recommendations

To conclude, Moscow is a safe city to visit. I have never had a problem with getting around and most locals are really friendly once they know you’re a foreigner. Moscow has undergone some serious reconstruction over the last few years. So you can expect some places to be completely different. I hope my one week Moscow itinerary was helpful! If you have less time, say 4 days or 5 days, I would cut out day 6 and day 7. You could save the Golden Ring for a separate trip entirely as there’s lots to see!

What makes Moscow worth a visit are it's colorful and remarkable structures and the warmth of the inviting capital city. Have a tour of the city which is generally known as the ‘Fire Square’.

Best time to visit

In summers, Moscow generally offers a warm climate along with a little downpour. It is a great time to roam around the city in light, cotton clothes and witness many exciting tourist attractions around you. A tour to the Red Square, St. Basil Cathedral, and Kolomenskoye museum on a nice sunny day would be perfect in Moscow city.

The New Year’s Eve in Moscow’s winter is a great deal and is worth witnessing in a visit to the Russian capital. Many games, contests, and Russian cultural traditions take place in Red Square area every year while it is covered in snow. Make sure to pack loads of warm clothes to beat the freezing temperature while you give a tour to Moscow during winters.

Best Way to reach

The one and only way to reach Moscow from India is by air. There are 5 airports in Moscow city out of which 3 are connected to international airports of cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Lucknow, and Bengaluru through flights.
