A creative, expertly written and well-designed travel brochure invites readers to cast themselves into a story that takes place in an exotic locale. In this article, learn how to make an enticing travel brochure that will have your audience fantasizing about-and booking-your travel packages.

Determining the Details of Your Travel Brochure

Step 1 Choose the destination of your potential clients.

  • A professional should already know what destination they are representing, or attempting to advertise for. Use this step to get to know the key features of your location: mountains, lakes, cabins, museums, parks, etc. Write each of these key features down on a piece of paper for use later on.
  • If you are a student, find an exciting place to advertise for. Some great examples are Mexico, Hawaii, Myrtle Beach South Carolina, the beaches of Florida, or Australia, to name just a few. Research the location you choose (using reputable sources such as online search engines, encyclopedias, library books, etc.) and find out key features about the location. Write each of these down on a piece of paper for use later on.
  • The lists for both students and professionals should be extra long at the beginning. It is better to create a long list to start, and then cross off items later on.

Step 2 Explore and locate the amenities of the location.

  • Travel around the website by yourself and write down what and where the particular amenity is.
  • If you are far away from where you are advertising for, look for maps online that might help you locate particular amenities. Sites like Google Maps often point out exactly what and where each of these is.
  • After you have created a detailed list of the amenities, put a star next to the items you think are most important (bathrooms generally are a top priority). Make sure to note whether these amenities provide additional accommodations, such as being handicap accessible. [1] X Research source

Step 3 Find out what the residents are saying, if your destination has residential accommodations.

  • Visit peoples' homes and ask them politely to give their opinion. Remember to bring a pencil and paper to write down exactly what they say. You can also bring a voice recorder if you do not write very fast.
  • If the destination is strictly for vacation (non-residential) try calling people whom have vacationed there in the past. As with the previous step, write down exactly what they have to say about their experience.
  • Students who do not have direct contact with persons whom live, or have vacationed there, should look online. Find internet sites that link you with local hotels, restaurants, etc. in the area of your destination. Look for reviews that have to do with the destination (Mexico, Hawaii, etc.) rather than a particular place of accommodation. Write down what they have to say. [2] X Research source

Step 4 Pick your target audience.

  • Vacation spots with lots of bathrooms, and restaurants available are great for an older demographic audience.
  • Destinations which are primarily vacation spots (non-residential) usually target a younger audience, or newlywed couples going on their honeymoon.
  • Vacation spots which have hotels furnished with WiFi and cable TV are great destinations for families.
  • Destinations which have large rooms are great for business workers, who are looking to conduct work from far away.
  • This is not an all encompassing list, but it will give you an idea about what to look for, and how to pick the right demographic audience. Something you might think is minor (a boardwalk for example) might make all the difference in the world for a particular clientele.

Step 5 Determine the price of your travel package.

  • Take into account the previous four steps, and in particular the target demographic group. Set a standard price to each of the amenities, and add them all up. Set a standard price for all of the key features of the destination and add them all up. Finally, add the price of the amenities and destination hot-spots together.
  • Adjust the vacation cost according to who the audience is. Younger clientele and families will most likely be looking for a cheaper vacation. Older clientele and business types will have more money to spend. Generally speaking, vacations for a family of four should run between $1000 and $2000. Go higher or lower as you see fit. How to Calculate Cost of Travel

Writing the Text of Your Travel Brochure

Step 1 Create a preliminary outline.

  • First, you’ll want to create a story. Just like a good novel pulls in a reader, the client wants to feel as if they are going on an adventure. In paragraph form (full sentences), write a convincing argument for why your vacation spot is the best place to visit.
  • After you have written down your argument, go back and proofread. More importantly, cross out extraneous information, keep what is critical, and add in to places that need a more exciting, or convincing argument.
  • This argument can then be split apart into different sections of your brochure. You might have to tailor the sentences to exist as a stand-alone argument in the different sections, but this will give you a good head start. It is important that the writer knows exactly why each of the individual pieces are critical, and how they come together to convince the clientele.

Step 2 Use specialized fonts and lettering.

  • Your heading/title should appear in bold lettering, underlined, and be large enough to read from far away. If someone is sitting in a doctors office, or at a coffee shop, they should be able to see the title clearly, at the top of the brochure.
  • Each of the subheadings/section headings should also be in bold, and underlined. They should be a slightly smaller font size than the title. They should all also all be the same font. If one subtitle is in Times New Roman, keep them all Times New Roman. This creates a nice flow to your brochure, and does not bog down the viewer in trying to comprehend the brochure.

Step 3 Write a captivating title.

  • Write down some adjectives you know that are not typically used, such as adventurous, pulsating, mind-boggling, fanciful, breathtaking, etc. Put these words first in your title, so that the readers eyes, reading left to right, will catch that key word.
  • Then, make sure to include the location in the title. If you advertising for a Hawaiian vacation, do not leave out the word Hawaii. Put the location right after the adjective.
  • Following the name of the place, you can finish the title with simply "vacation" or a synonym. End the title in an exclamation point, so that it appears that the person selling the vacation is just as excited as the potential clientele.
  • Bold the lettering, and underline the title. A good example is: Adventurous Mount Everest Vacation!

Step 4 Hook your audience with the opening sentence.

  • You want to make the argument for this vacation clear right up front. The reader is not going to look around the rest of the brochure if they are not convinced at the very beginning.
  • This would be a great time to simply list off a few of the accommodations/hot spots. For example: “An all-encompassing Hawaiian vacation that includes beautiful scenery, top-of-the-line hotels, and all the food you can eat!”.

Step 5 Write each of your sections.

  • You will want to include, at the bare minimum, the following sections: restaurants, hotels, scenery(appearance of the vacation spot), and shops. These are four of the most basic things people need to know about before they go on the vacation. In total, you should have around six to eight sections.
  • Make sure that what you are saying is necessary, succinct, and convincing. Consider what image you are using and make sure that the words match up. Feel free to highlight, italicize, or bold certain words or phrases.
  • This would also be a great time to add in those accommodations, such as handicap accessible, free continental breakfast, bike/walking trails, etc.

Step 6 Copy and edit testimonials.

  • To include block quotes in your brochure, start by indenting. Then add a quotation mark, and write in your quote. Finish by adding another quotation mark.
  • You will want to include only the most sensitive, valuable information. Do not include bad experiences, as this might turn off the clientele.
  • If you want to take out a sentence in the middle of a paragraph, simply highlight and delete. Then, in between the remaining sentences, add ... (three periods in a row). This will allow you to shorten the quote, keep what is necessary, and highlight what is most important. [5] X Research source

Step 7 Include a price section.

  • Include some simple terms in your 3-4 sentence price section such as: “Prices as low as $1000 for a family of four!” or, “Prices start at $1500, and include great discounts if you purchase by phone!”
  • Mention the different offers/deals vacationers can get through your particular company. Usually, there are family discounts, senior discounts, children discounts, etc.
  • This section should appear on the inside of the pamphlet, to the far right (at the end). You do not want to start the brochure by introducing price, nor do you want to put the price on the back of the brochure, as the clientele will probably look there first and never look inside.

Step 8 Link the viewer to other sources.

  • This should be done as a series of bulleted points or dashes. Do not write this information in paragraph form, as it will all run together.
  • Check a second and third time that the information is up to date and correct. Look at the bottom of webpages to see when the last time the page was updated. Call the numbers you are listing on the brochure and see who picks up the phone. The information you are presenting needs to be accurate. [7] X Research source

Creating the Visuals for Your Travel Brochure

Step 1 Choose eye-catching photos.

  • Some good examples include: A smiling visitor hugging a dolphin at a sea life attraction, or a woman relaxing with a massage in an open-air spa that overlooks the tropical sunset.
  • Make sure the photos are in color, and have a high-quality resolution. Do not use stock photos which generally look fake, and off-putting. Use real life images, or photos you have taken yourself at the location.
  • People enjoy seeing others having fun, so try to include photos of people enjoying themselves at your destination rather than showing an empty hotel room or deserted beach. This will invite readers to project themselves into the photo. [8] X Research source

Step 2 Consider the color scheme carefully.

  • To convey a relaxed feeling appropriate for a spa, use muted pastel tones. Children's destinations are best marketed with bright, bold colors. Historical site brochures can be given an "antique" feeling with sepia and earth tones.
  • For each panel of the brochure, use the same color. If there are different colors for each panel, it can become distracting and gaudy.

Step 3 Add in borders, asterisks, and designs.

  • Use a thin border to contain each of the panels in your brochure. A thick border can become distracting. The border should be a color that is a slightly darker/lighter shade of the tone that you use for the rest of the brochure.
  • If you want to highlight key points of your story, use bullet points or asterisks. Generally, 3-4 is the range you want to stay in. Try to highlight things that are not written about in the sentences.
  • Designs can also help, such as stars, rainbows, arrows, etc. Add these where and when you see fit. Once more, do not overuse these, and bog down the viewer in the visuals. The clientele should want to read more, not necessarily look more.

Step 4 Organize the brochure so the copy and visuals work together.

  • Tell the printing company that you want the brochures printed on high-quality paper. Cheap, flimsy paper can easily be torn, ripped, or water-damaged. Thick, coated paper provides resistance to accidents, and can be carried around mush easier.
  • If you wind up needing to use your home or business printer, just make sure to use thick, heavy paper. The settings of your printer should be set to the highest pixel quality so that your pictures come out clean and crisp.

Step 6 Provide a final copy proof.

  • Do not use pictures unless they are of the actual destination. People do not want to be lied to about what vacation they are going on. This can result in problems/litigation with the travel organization, or potentially a lowered grade if you’re a student. Thanks Helpful 3 Not Helpful 1

About This Article

To make a travel brochure, start by identifying the main attractions in the area you're advertising, such as restaurants or movie theaters. Next, decide who your target audience is by evaluating the attractions at the destination, like by aiming for a young demographic if it's a vacation spot. To start writing, choose a catchy title and engage your audience with the first sentence on the opening flap by mentioning the destination's key strong points, such as good accommodation. Then, make sure you have great visuals to break up the text, since pictures are key if you want to grab people's attention.

How to make a stunning travel brochure – Templates included

Travelling is one of life’s greatest pleasures. A journey to discover new places, cultures, and traditions and a reflective self-discovery trip we get to embark on every time we go somewhere else. Sometimes, stunning travel brochures are the only tools you have to inspire travelers to visit new destinations worth exploring.

During the height of the pandemic, traveling of any kind was halted or severely restricted. That resulted in an interest spike as soon as the borders opened. No surprise there. There’s a hunger for it that the industry strives to satisfy.

But how do you grab the attention of all potential wanderers in the post-pandemic era? Do you follow the same pattern as before, or use optimized tools for your benefit?

How to make a stunning travel brochure banner

Whether you’re running an online travel agency , an independent travel agent, or just promoting your tourist attraction, travel brochures are a great promotional tool. Still, traditional marketing tools made their way into the digital world, and with the right online marketing tool , you can make any type of brochure digital in no time.

We’ll get into the details of how to make a travel brochure and more in a minute. Let’s just make sure we cover our bases first.

A travel brochure is the most commonly used promotional tool for the tourism industry’s marketing strategy. Its role is to promote a destination, service, or product to potential customers in an informative and commercial manner.

If you know how to make a travel brochure, you’ll inspire tourists to pack their bags and book their flight, hotel room, and adventure in no time. Due to that, the information travel brochures provide needs to answer fundamental questions about a destination. How’s the weather? What can you do once you get there? Which are the transit options? What are the prices? Coupled with appealing visuals that give tourists a taste of what the destination promises, the written content provides the educational part of the material. 

Knowing how to make a travel brochure can be the difference between a successful brochure marketing strategy and losses in revenue. Promote your services with a travel brochure, but understand exactly what is a travel brochure and what it isn’t, as there is much confusion among marketing materials. We’ll go over the main ones to make it easier to differentiate between them. To exemplify what a great travel brochure might look like, I’m going to mention the brochures from Bookatrekking.com , a hiking company that meets the needs of people interested in visiting famous mountains around the world. It comes as a branded travel brochure with travel destination services.

Brochure vs. other marketing materials

Travel brochures are probably the most diverse marketing material as you can fold them in different ways and bind them, and they are not limited in sizes like leaflets , pamphlets , or flyers . You can choose the one that fits your needs best based on factors such as budget, target audience, style, and overall marketing strategy.

Brochure vs. leaflet vs. flyer visual created in Flipsnack

Despite being the most popular choice for tourism service providers, even those who know how to make a travel brochure template often confuse it with other promotional materials. To clarify, we’ll go over the main differences in a few bullet points:

  • Travel brochures have a minimum of two pages containing images and written content. They are primarily used for selling and marketing services, containing details about them and activities available in an area. 
  • Pamphlets are much smaller in size, with a panel of written content and images. They are used to inform and educate, covering only one topic, and are similar in aspect to flyers. 
  • Booklets have more pages and are more expensive, but they are usually used for manuals and are always bound. 
  • Leaflets are similar to pamphlets and flyers if only a bit smaller and more sophisticated.

Still, printed marketing materials are outshined by their digital counterparts in the age of technology and the internet. Everything is made available and more appealing at the click of a button or the swipe of a screen, so why should your brochure marketing strategy stay in the past? Let’s see why you should look into digital travel brochures and some ways to reduce printing costs .

Travel brochures – why choose digital?

Travel agencies or visitor’s centers will have different types of printed marketing materials available to browse. That part is unlikely to change. Still, people leave them behind, throw them away, and they become waste before the next season comes around.

Digital travel brochures don’t fall into this trap as they are, well … digital. They stay on your devices. You have them on your phone, always on hand, and, once downloaded, you can consult them anytime. Digital travel brochures are also editable. You won’t have to recover stacks of printed copies, discard them, and replace them before clients still take the content as accurate. You can just change the content as you wish.

Printed vs digital brochures visual

Still, how can you decide which is better for you and your business? Just consider the costs and your needs and organize your marketing strategy accordingly. Printed materials are necessary only to showcase in information centers or travel agencies and for clients that don’t venture online for their traveling plans. Furthermore, given online services proficiency, you don’t need design experience to make a professional-looking travel brochure.

Learning how to make a travel brochure has never been easier. You can simply upload a PDF file in record time and play around with the features available. A quick guide will help you through the basics, and you’ll be halfway there.

How to make a travel brochure?

So far, from this article, you have discovered what is a travel brochure and what the differences between print and digital are. We can move on to the more exciting part of this article and probably the reason you’re here in the first place.

Let’s see how to make a travel brochure! Creating your first can seem a bit daunting, especially if you don’t have much marketing experience. From design to content, people think it is overwhelming. But, hey! That’s what brought you here, so let’s start!

  • Think before you do
  • Develop a buyer persona
  • Organize your ideas
  • Choose the right format
  • Write a compelling copy
  • Make it visually appealing
  • Color outside the lines
  • Include branding elements
  • Reach your audience

But let’s take a closer look at them one by one and get into more details.

1. Think before you do

You know why travel brochures are important to a marketing strategy if you work in the tourism industry. Their main purpose is to market your services, but you don’t simply tell your customers about them. You make them as tangible as possible. Traveling isn’t a product that can be tested. You don’t get a trial version before you book your holiday, so you use travel brochures for that.

Of course, knowing what you’re promoting in your travel brochure is detrimental. Basing your written content on online information won’t guarantee success; what will is having experienced the things you write about. “Write about what you know,” as critics say, relates to the authenticity of the information. Imagination and creativity can take us only so far, but actual experience supersedes them. Explore the location and services for yourself as a simple Google search can tell a client about the best hotel in the area. You need to give them more. An effective travel brochure can make them feel like they are there, and first-hand experience is the best source for inspiring content.

An efficient travel brochure doesn’t only have the best images, design, copy, and color scheme. It must have all of that but focused on the customer’s needs. Otherwise, it’s a pamphlet. Interactive digital brochures do even more with added videos. Overwhelm your reader’s senses so that they imagine themselves experiencing those services. It will make the difference between browsing for services and buying them. Still, before writing your copy, get up close and personal with your targeted audience.

2. Develop a buyer persona

Knowing what you write is as important as knowing for whom you are writing. Developing a buyer persona will make you understand your audience better. You don’t want to promote skydiving to toddlers or a puppet show to adrenaline seekers. Know who will benefit the most from your services and address them. 

A buyer persona represents your ideal customer or target audience. This is a character you design based on what you sell and the characteristics of the person who buys your product. You need to know and understand your buyer persona like the back of your hand. Are they married? Do they have children? What’s their age group? Do you know their interests? What makes them tick? How do they book their holiday? What activities do they prefer? When in doubt, create several buyer personas (three is the recommended minimum) because you won’t only have one type of customer buying your products.

Developing a buyer persona exemplified with Flipsnack

Developing your buyer persona is like creating a character for a book you’re writing. The story is all about the character; if you don’t understand your character thoroughly, the story will lose its flow, meaning, and authenticity. Look at reviews, testimonials, characteristics of potential clients, and your services to develop your buyer persona. Once you know what they want, you’ll be able to better accommodate their needs. When in doubt, look for templates online for designing your buyer persona , and once they become as tangible as possible without being real, you can start making your travel brochure.

3. Organize your ideas

Before you continue your travel brochure, you need a general idea of what your travel brochure will look like. It’s important you tell a story through your content, immerse your audience into an experience, and take them with you on a teaser of their holiday. But how do you do that? Take all the information you intend to write about, and make a plan for your travel brochure. 

Your buyer persona is your target audience, and you need to excite them. Readers are drawn to a good storyline, and as the storyteller, you’ll take them on an adventure. Infuse an emotion through your front page, delve deeper into the main subject with an intro, give them the main attractions, and show them what they’ll experience there. You need to tickle a nerve. Give them the right reasons to be unable to scroll past your offer, and convince them to purchase your services through compelling arguments. 

But don’t forget while your aim is to sell an emotion, you must keep it brief, succinct, and to the point. It’s the simple words that carry the heaviest emotions. This compelling argument should be recurring throughout your travel brochure, reiterating more and more as they move past each page. Tell a story through text, imagery, page layout, and flow. They will have to book their holiday by the end of your travel brochure, and if done correctly, it won’t turn out to be a novel. Size does matter in travel brochures. 

4. Choose the right format

Once you know what your travel brochure will be about and who will read it, you can get into the more technical elements of making a travel brochure. Size, style, and format mostly apply to foldable printed travel brochures designs due to folding techniques. Still, if you design your brochure in a digital format, you should keep this in mind. Using the digital version of your brochure for any printed copies will be easier than designing two, and you’ll find many travel brochure templates for various folding styles . Consider using a really good laptop for graphic design so the result is high quality on paper, too.

Choosing the right brochure format visual

If you intend to print copies of your travel brochure, you should keep it simple, as custom shapes won’t save you money. That is if you don’t mind splurging on your marketing materials. The most common dimensions for brochures are A4, A5, and DL (dimension lengthwise), but for printed brochures, it’s the folding that takes the cake. You can pick and choose from the single fold, concertina fold, cross fold, open-gate fold, couple-gate fold, and roll fold, or make origami if you want to stand out. All that folding, however, can take away from the visuals you use.

Aside from the ability to print it, a digital brochure can come in various sizes. The basic option is an A4, horizontal or vertical, from which you can implement many folding techniques. Still, there is the letter format (916 x 1056 px) for a slightly wider variant, followed by the tabloid (1632 x 1056 px). The smaller sizes resemble the flyer (416 x 865 px) or booklet format (793 x 793 px). Still, you can make it multiple pages without considering paper quality, limited space, ink, and budget, especially if you want an informative copy. 

5. Write a compelling copy

As the most time-consuming part of how to make a travel brochure, you don’t want to rush through the copy. Words are an unlimited resource of magic in our world. They can hurt, heal, save, and push over the edge, making them a powerful tool to wield. Still, they make the intangible tangible, and thoughts can be made a reality through them. For the copy of a travel brochure template, get your grammar game on point. Check everything twice and be mindful of punctuation. Everything must work together, but without a good copy, even the most breathtaking images can’t save a travel brochure. When you think of the copy and the visuals, think of the heart and lungs of the travel brochure. One can not work without the other.

Be aware of who you’ll be addressing and how you’ll address them. Tailor your voice on your buyer’s personas. Address the copy as you would your friends. This makes the content more approachable for writers of any skill level and bridges the gap between you and your audience. Also, your travel brochure’s text (copy) must be descriptive. It has to paint a clear picture of the place where you’re inviting your readers. With interactive maps, your readers will get familiar with their surroundings and know what to expect.

Let readers visualize their experience. Transport them to your destination. Invite them over to try out new experiences. Enthusiasm is a contagious feeling, and you can transmit passion through words. Include a call to action once you drew them in by the written content like “Plan your adventure now!”, “Sign up for the latest offers!” or simply “Book!” Then the right visual will get them over the finish line in no time.

6. Make it visually appealing

While we’ve established that telling a story is detrimental to the informational part of what is a travel brochure, the imagery is the visual that shows the story and captures the attention. If the images are dull, you could write the next Romeo & Juliette, and no one will read it. As images are the first things people see when they look at examples of a travel brochure , include engaging visuals that showcase experiences and people having fun, giving your audience a taste of the sight-seeing part of traveling. 

We are visual creatures drawn to aesthetics. It’s in our genetic makeup, and by using appealing imagery of landscapes, you can relay a feeling, even if it’s only longing to be in that place. If you want to take your travel brochure to the next level, implement interactive features. Think of your buyer’s persona and target their fantasies. Whether it’s sunbathing while enjoying a cocktail, hiking peaks while the thrill of birds keeps you company, or something exhilarating like a skydiving video embed, provide for that fantasy through a virtual tour but keep it accurate. Don’t sell something you don’t have.

Appealing travel brochure example created in Flipsnack

Once you decide on the story, you want to tell, finding the right images will be easy. There are multiple websites for stock photos that you can use, many for free or for a fee. The quality of the images you use matters, and if you’re willing to go the extra mile, hire a professional photographer. Stock images can go a long way, but original imagery, commissioned to express a particular emotion, has a different impact. It will also help with how they perceive you in the field, increasing your position among competitors through original content. Combine the visuals with the color pallet for a harmonious travel brochure design.

7. Color outside the lines

After choosing your images carefully, make sure you select a color scheme for your brochure. When it comes to designing your own travel brochure template, the sky’s the limit. You can use branding, style, and imagery to create a color scheme. Firstly, the importance of a color scheme is relevant if color is a focus of your travel brochure. 

Knowing how to make a digital brochure doesn’t mean you must know or be proficient at travel brochure design. However, if you intend to use color to highlight some sections of your travel brochure or create a theme, you must remember the overall pallet you use. Again, if color is not an overwhelming part of your design, you can be relatively liberal with what colors you use. Still, if your travel brochure has plenty of turquoise images of ocean beaches with clear blue water, the designer can integrate blues perfectly throughout the travel brochure design.

A well-known fact, blue is one of the calmest colors. It communicates peace and tranquility. So, when advertising beach resorts or hotels, you may want to use lighter shades of blue to send the right message with your travel brochure design. That is the psychological effect colors have on us. Similarly, orange inspires action, and green can be soothing if it’s light or envy-inducing if dark. Red stands for passion but also anger, while purple is luxurious. You can use a color wheel to better understand which colors work best together to ensure an enticing combination. Use your brand colors, and your company will become synonymous with the best holiday of their lives in no time.

8. Include branding elements

You may know some businesses in the tourism industry by their logos, slogans, or images . Think of the font in Holiday Inn’s logo, “Sweet Home Alabama ”, “The city that never sleeps,” or “Finger Likin’ Good,” and tell me your mind doesn’t go places. Implementing branding in a brochure marketing campaign doesn’t only help with sales but will also increase the company’s and its services’ popularity. The message sticks with the consumer; if the overall experience is good, they come again. If not, they know to stay away from it.

That is why brand consistency throughout your marketing materials is essential. If your clients enjoy themselves, it will help them remember your brand and return when the next holiday comes around. Branding means everything from your company’s logo, slogan, brand colors, font pairings , or typography. Incorporate branding elements in your marketing materials to connect your brand to the message. Aside from standing out and being recognized from the millionth other brands, using them will breed loyalty.

Branding elements presented in a Flipsnack travel brochure

Keep your brand in mind throughout your travel brochure and other marketing materials. Maybe you can work with the colors, some cursive lettering titles, or simply a feeling that oozes from your brand. Whatever it is, work it throughout your travel brochure design with a branding kit . If your brand colors are pastels, keep to those hues and tints, but if it’s black and white, think carefully about adding color. What you have to say can also make a difference so keep the general idea of your written content in the back of your mind before you get around to hashing it out. Now all you need to do is send your travel brochure to people.

9. Reach your audience

Once you finish your travel brochure examples, you need to publish them. You save it in whatever editor you’re using and send it to the printer if you want to have physical copies. You can send traditional printed brochures to hotels, and trade events, in PR kits or through the post. 

A digital travel brochure lives online, and you can share it as a PDF link as far and wide as possible. Share a link that opens the page or a full-screen link to open the travel brochure in full-screen mode in your browser. You can easily share it through social media platforms, email, and embedded on websites and downloaded for further consultation in various formats. Like that, you won’t need an internet connection or to carry them in hand wherever you travel.

Some distribution paths incur additional costs, which is why digital travel brochures are gaining more terrain. We’re not saying that if you go digital, you won’t need a marketing budget, but when for 5000 printed brochures, you need around $2000 for design, printing, delivery, and distribution. A monthly fee of $35 is a bargain. Considering all the benefits, features, and design options you get from such a package, you’ll save money faster than ever . On top of that, once you share your published digital travel brochure, you can also update any pricing or information alterations in real-time. Talk about efficiency.

Design your travel brochure with Flipsnack

Congratulations! Now that you have everything you need to make a travel brochure marketing campaign like a professional, you can get to work. Everything from the section above will be applicable when you make a digital travel brochure. But now that you have the know-how let’s talk about the tool.  There are plenty of online tools for designing promotional materials , but with range, applicability, and usability, after 10 years of experience, none can overcome Flipsnack. Making your own digital travel brochure in our Design Studio will be easy. Our flipbook software offers you three paths you can take when creating a travel brochure. Let’s see more about these options, shall we?

One of the simplest ways to create a digital travel brochure in Flipsnack is to upload an already-made brochure. With the fastest PDF converter on the market , it’s no wonder many of our customers choose this option. Once your PDF file has been converted, you take it to the next level through the interactive features available .  Want to include a short video about your spa? Go ahead! Want a soothing sound for a more intense experience while people read sections about the wildlife in the area? You can have that. Include internal and external links for easier access to even more details. Add social media buttons so your customers can keep in touch with ease. Update the content easily when something changes and share it in HTML5 , video, or GIF versions to be accessible on any device.

When inspiration strikes, you can create a travel brochure from scratch . Organize your travel brochure from the first to the last page, and balance the copy and visuals in a seamless manner to tell the story you want to tell. Add styling elements and interactivity features that keep the flow of the brochure going. Creating your own travel brochure gives you free rein over the entire process so let your imagination run wild and design your vision into reality.

When the muse takes a break, you can browse through our travel brochure templates to find something that speaks to you. Once you choose the travel brochure template that fits best with your needs, you only need to fill the template with your original content. Make it your own through simple customizing options. You can personalize it through a simple drag & drop and then start adding interactivities. This will give your travel brochure a new dimension, capturing the attention and inspiring people to take you up on your offer.  Choose the path you want, but once you make your choice, it doesn’t mean you won’t have access to the others. You can add extra pages to uploaded PDFs, original designs, or templates. You can also use one page from a template to add in an original design and any other combination that you can think of. The borders of your imagination are the limits when it comes to our Design Studio . Just continue reading, and we’ll give you a taste of what Flipsnack can do for you through a few travel brochure examples.

Travel Brochures Examples

From here on out, we’re done with the technical aspects of digital travel brochures. Now we’ll show you that we don’t only talk the talk but also walk the walk. 

Blue Sea Tourism Brochure Template

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, if the image looks anything like the one in the travel brochure example below, it’s easy to see where that saying comes from. This blue sea travel brochure template will ignite any beach lover’s imagination.

Blue sea travel brochure template created with Flipsnack

As you browse through its pages, one thing that stands out is the turquoise color of water and sky integrated throughout the brochure. The page number is of a similarly shaded background. Make this work for any breathtaking visual by changing the color of other connected elements throughout the template. Once you have done this, introduce your logo, replace the images and text, add interactions to capture your audience’s attention, and personalize it for your business.

Pattern Themed Travel Brochure Template

A dynamic travel brochure template can help you organically highlight the most appealing activities if you have a theme in mind. With the spotlight on them, simplicity is essential as you don’t want other elements to distract the readers.

Pattern Themed Travel Brochure Template

Here we have a pattern themed travel brochure . The travel brochure design makes it look like a diary photo album, intentionally connecting a personal item so that the reader connects to it with ease. Cursive writing titles on polaroid photographs make it feel like a travel journal you make before your trip begins. It’s an inspirational and concise way to bridge the gap between the experience available and the reader who has yet to experience them.

Adventure Trip Brochure Template

This digital travel brochure example can come in foldable templates that work in both the printed and digital worlds. Select the main attraction for the promoted destination and inspire your readers’ curiosity enough to generate leads. 

Adventure Trip Brochure Template

This front-and-back adventure travel brochure template gives an immersive experience through visuals that continue beyond the page. A design created for the tourism industry ensures that travelers get access to all the relevant information while at the same time seeing a sneak peek of the attractions they can visit. Make it foldable in printed version or keep it digital for easy distribution. The choice is yours once you customize it with the most popular attractions, best-reviewed hotels, and highest-scoring restaurants.

Informative Travel Brochure Template

Marketing strategies come in different forms, and teasers work to ignite the spark, tickle curiosity, and demand action. You can use a simple, short, and content-limited travel brochure example if you include your contact information.

Informative Travel Brochure Template

The saying, less is more is the best way to describe a teaser brochure marketing campaign. Through this informative travel brochure template , you only give your readers a taste, the smallest sample of the experiences they could enjoy. Still, if you add a few more between the front and back, you can give them as much information as you want. Activate a form for access inside of it and easily gather contact information from them.

Double Gate Fold Holiday Promotion Brochure Template

You can fold printed travel brochures differently, but you can see this from the template. On the outside, you say what it’s about. Open it to start your story, and open it again to find out more.

Double Gate Fold Holiday Promotion Brochure Template

This double-gate fold travel brochure template comes with layers. Each layer takes the audience deeper and deeper as you provide more information about the offers available. While the main image starts on the front page in its folded format, it continues on the inside without creating a bigger image. It simply continues. Once it’s fully open, you can show different locations worth visiting and give your clients a choice. Break apart the text with relevant images, so they understand their options.

Before & After

Those templates are just that – templates you can easily personalize to promote your services. We discussed some of these features throughout the article, but this before-and-after section is where you see them in action. Changing the pictures and text is one thing, but there’s so much more you can do with Flipsnack. The before the template is the version without any customization. In the after template, you’ll be able to see the distinguishable changes and some that are not as visible.

Before and after customizing a template in Flipsnack

Travel Brochures

Whether you’re a boutique travel agency, a luxury hotel, or a local tourist center highlighting your city’s hidden gems, one thing is certain: You’re not advertising just any old trip! Getting tourists excited about your vacation experience starts with a thoughtfully designed, professional-looking, and perfectly customized travel brochure.  With its lightweight, handheld format—super easy to tuck into a travel bag, fanny pack, or purse—your tourism brochure will capture visitors’ imaginations and conveniently go wherever they do. Splashed with colorful images and alluring text, your bifold or trifold travel brochure could be just the thing that convinces them to stop off at that strange roadside attraction, select your cruise excursion over others, or sign on the dotted line for your full-service vacation package. No matter the destination, vibe, or price tag of your tourist experience, the right travel brochure design will set the tone for your guests—not only getting them excited but also providing helpful information to make the most of their long-awaited vacation. And MyCreativeShop makes it easier to create that perfect design! Instead of hiring a graphic designer to make your tourism brochure, you can make it yourself in our easy-to-use online editor. We have tons of professionally designed travel brochure templates, so all you need to do is choose one and then customize it with your own text, brand assets, photos, and more. Even with no design experience, you can quickly go from idea to print—which, by the way, you can order directly from us, too. From start to finish, your brochure can be done in minutes and ready to inspire vacation delight.

Creative Travel Brochure Examples and Ideas

The phrase “tourism brochure” may call to mind a specific type of thing, but in reality, the opportunities are unlimited! You don’t have to create the same basic pamphlet you’ve seen a million times before. For instance, here are a handful of ways that MyCreativeShop users have taken one of our travel brochure templates and turned it into a powerhouse marketing item:

  • General Travel Brochures : Heavy on gorgeous imagery and cultural highlights, a general travel brochure is a great way to introduce a destination. You can fill an entire rack in your hotel or travel agency by featuring prime locations like Spain , Japan , or Australia .
  • Specific Travel Guides : Go a little more in depth with your travel pamphlet by turning it into a detailed guide about one specific topic that your area is famous for. Maybe it’s a key historical event, a seasonal festival, or world-famous nightlife.
  • Travel FAQ Guides : Make your travel agency brochure stand out in tourists’ minds by providing pressure-free information on common FAQs such as travel insurance, airline refund policies, baggage allowances, and more.
  • Local Maps : Especially in local tourist centers or hotels , maps are indispensable. Even in the age of smartphones, many travelers enjoy the tactile feel of paper maps—and they make great keepsakes, too!
  • Foodie Guides : We all know that food is a sure-fire way to anyone’s heart, especially on lazy vacation days! Dish out some “secret” recommendations for fancy hotspots, fast-casual dining, and mom-and-pop dives.
  • Road Trip Guides : From South Africa’s Chapman’s Peak Drive to US Route 66 to Switzerland’s Great St. Bernard Pass, there are some drives that should be on everyone’s bucket list! Use your tourism brochure to captivate tourists who prefer to vacation behind the wheel.

To make your travel brochures more useful, you can add some helpful resources on top of the pretty pictures and welcoming text. Provide key information such as emergency contacts, nearby ATM locations, tourist safety tips, local taxi apps, free wifi hotspots, or common scam warnings—and you’ll turn your pamphlet into something that visitors will actually prioritize hanging onto!

Find the Perfect Travel Brochure Template for You 

However you plan to use your travel brochure, MyCreativeShop is certain to have a template to bring your vision to life. Each template has been made by a professional graphic designer and comes with cohesive color schemes, bold headlines, easy-to-read paragraph text, and placeholders for eye-catching imagery. If you’re worried about how to make a travel brochure look good, there’s no need! All you’ll have to do is fill in these spaces with your own information—and voila, your custom pamphlet is tourist-ready. If you do want to make more customizations, we make that easy as well. In any travel brochure template, you can experiment with:

  • Background Patterns

You can upload your own logo and other brand assets, and you can also browse our stock photo library for high-res images that’ll grab your viewers’ attention. Whether your vacation mission is beachy relaxation, historical charm, or outdoorsy tough, it’s easy to play around until you find the perfect design for you. If you don’t like something you’ve done, click undo or start fresh with a new template! You can make unlimited revisions to both sides of the page.

Suitably Sized for Hassle-Free Distribution

We offer two standard sizes of travel and tourism brochure:

  • 8.5” x 11” trifold and bifold
  • 11” x 17” bifold

Both sizes are portable and ideal for a variety of distribution methods. You can pass them out by hand at key tourist hotspots, leave them on freshly made beds for hotel guests to peruse, or stack them in a rack by the door of your travel agency. If you’re looking to entice the locals during the off-season, you could even send your brochures by mail or leave them on nearby doorsteps.

Order Prints with a Guaranteed Delivery Date

Once you’ve finished tailoring your travel guide design, you can order professional prints within a few clicks. You won’t have to mess with bleed settings or other document details, as our editor automatically makes your pamphlet print-ready. What you see when you design is exactly what you’ll get!  You can choose a quantity ranging from 50 travel guides to 50,000 and then select standard or premium thick paper. Both papers are flexible and easy to handle, and all travel brochures arrive pre-folded and ready to go. 

It’s Easy to Download, Print, or Share Anywhere

Although many MyCreativeShop users prefer to print with us, we believe that more options are always better! If you’d prefer to print your brochures locally, you can do that instead with no hassle at all. Just click download to get a high-quality PDF that can be taken and printed at any professional print shop.  At the same time, why not download a web-ready image, too? You can upload this image to your travel agency’s website, share it on social media, or send it out in an automated email blast to your newsletter subscribers. The more times your customers can see their dream vacation (literally!), the more ready they’ll be to get away. MyCreativeShop can help you market the trip of the lifetime to any corner of the globe—without spending a fortune on designing, printing, or shipping!

Tips to get you started on designing, printing & promoting your Travel Brochures

The most important part of creating an enticing travel brochure is having a set of high-quality, professional photos to draw from. You’ll also want to select a handful of location features to highlight in your brochure. Those features will differ depending on whether your brochure is focused on a landmark or attraction or on a general location (city, state, region, country). Once you’ve landed on your chosen features, make sure you have content to correspond with each photo. Using your local knowledge, determine how you will arrange your content and photos to tell a story that compels others to experience it for themselves. Next, check out our catalog to find the travel brochure template that fits your destination. Upload your photos to make customization quick and easy. Apply your own custom color scheme, then use the tools in our editor to replace the placeholder text and images so that your story is told instead. Choose a font that fits and insert text boxes, shapes, icons, and arrows as needed with just a click or two. Include all necessary contact information so that an intrigued reader can learn more, and consider utilizing a QR code that lands on your website  if you have more story to tell than space to tell it. Proofread your project and even ask one or two others to give it a onceover. Once satisfied, you’re ready to print! Related: How to use brochures for impactful travel agency marketing

Your travel brochure should include high-quality, professional photographs of the destination, well-written but brief text that makes the case for a traveler to plan a trip (including seasonal changes, budget considerations, and the best time to visit), and a call to action that enables the reader to learn more. You can also include glowing testimonials from past visitors if you have them. Tell a compelling story, then include a link to your website or a phone number for booking.

A travel brochure is a document that promotes a specific location, hotel, landmark, or destination. Often created by travel agencies, visitor bureaus, tourism departments, and chambers of commerce, travel brochures are designed to provide more information about a travel destination in order to encourage visitors to plan a vacation that includes that specific place. Travel agencies may also use travel brochures to advertise unique vacation packages.

As you visualize the layout of your travel brochure, begin with an eye-catching image on the cover panel, along with minimal text and a logo (if needed) - when in doubt, opt for more photos and less text. You can then use the inside panels to tell the story of your destination and why they should visit with lots of photos and the text necessary to spark their interest. The back panel of the brochure is an ideal (and expected!) location for you to provide contact information, booking details, and even a little bit about the company creating the brochure.

20 Travel Brochure Examples to Inspire Your Next Design

20 Travel Brochure Examples to Inspire Your Next Design

The warm sun on your cheeks, the cool wind at your back, the hustle and bustle of local street eats. Whatever kind of travel experiences you facilitate, there’s no better way to get potential clients in vacation mode than a well-designed booklet with stunning photos and captivating copy.

Learn why these simple marketing pieces matter so much and then check out some inspiring travel brochure examples below.

Why Travel Brochures Are Good Business

Photo of travel brochure examples in Chiang Mai, Thailand

If print marketing seems outdated in this glued-to-our-smartphone age, you’ll be surprised to find out how important travel brochures really are. Small but mighty, these handheld pamphlets often make a real difference in vacationers’ plans.

According to a study by Bentley University :

  • Print brochures are the second-most popular source of trip-planning information (behind internet sources like personal research or travel ads ).
  • 85% of participants learned about a new attraction by seeing it on a brochure.
  • 73% of participants would consider changing their plans based on a brochure.

Plus, for many people, planning is half the fun of any trip! The right travel brochure builds early excitement and contributes to a positive customer experience long before the experience actually begins. 

And, one final bonus: Because DIY travel brochures have gotten so easy, you can make a digital brochure and a print brochure at the same time. Create your custom booklet, export one file for print and one for web, and you’ll be ready to share it online and stock it in your lobby.

Sound good? Then get inspired to design by browsing the twenty beautiful city guides and creative tourist pamphlets below.

How to Create a Stunning Travel Brochure: Unleashing the Magic of Design  Image3

An in-depth understanding of the subtleties can only be gained with experience. We'll list the basic rules that apply to all types of pamphlets. Although this is a general guide, it will help you find the right way and make a working design. If you want to use a real photo for your brochure, remove backgrounds from images , and AI pictures to enhance will help you edit it.

Understanding the Purpose and Target Audience

How to Create a Stunning Travel Brochure: Unleashing the Magic of Design  Image4

Planning and Research 

How to Create a Stunning Travel Brochure: Unleashing the Magic of Design  Image5

  • Informativeness. You need to briefly explain what you offer, and the advantages of ordering services from you.
  • Brevity. Avoid long sentences and long headlines. There are other tools to detail the object of advertising, including graphics.
  • A reference to an attraction, event, or vacation spot.

If it corresponds to the traveling brochure, it is advisable to talk about the popularity or history of the place, or institutions providing unique services near the place you describe.

Choosing a Captivating Design 

How to Create a Stunning Travel Brochure: Unleashing the Magic of Design  Image6

A person who receives a pamphlet on the street or in a store will not take the time to study it carefully, but will certainly assess the content in a cursory glance. The easiest way to arouse the interest of the audience is through a good graphic. This can be a photo, geometric shapes, illustrations, or other options.

Quality visualization is the key to ensuring that your ad will linger in the hands of the recipient. The automated photo editing application will help you design and make your work much easier. Pay attention to Luminar Neo, and you won't want to replace it for anything!

Compelling Content Creation 

How to Create a Stunning Travel Brochure: Unleashing the Magic of Design  Image7

Since the brochure often acts as an invitation card, try to indicate the benefit it gives to its owner. It should be something that will make you put it in your pocket and then come to the event as well. For example, free admission or a cocktail, or maybe a discount on services. Be sure to highlight this information. If you are adding graphical elements and need to remove items from pictures , use the handy AI-based tool.

Visual Elements and Imagery

Organizing and Structuring 

How to Create a Stunning Travel Brochure: Unleashing the Magic of Design  Image9

How to Choose the Perfect Design for Your Travel Brochure 

How to Create a Stunning Travel Brochure: Unleashing the Magic of Design  Image10

In some cases, it will be correct to use either a leaflet with pictures or a purely text booklet. However, most often experts recommend combining the two types of information presentation. Make sure that the ratio between pictures and text is about the same.

How to Write Compelling Content for a Travel Brochure 

Give preference to double-sided pamphlets. Printing a one-sided leaflet will of course be much cheaper. However, making the most of the free space on the professional travel brochure is more efficient. Proper presentation of information. Structure your entire text by inserting talking points, headings, and subheadings where possible.

I hope you got enough information to create a great pamphlet that will help tourists during their trip. I'm sure you will definitely succeed, and you will be able to make the perfect booklet.

What Key Elements Should I Include in My Travel Brochure?

Laconic and quality design! No one will read the pamphlet long and carefully. It should attract attention and deliver information quickly.

How Can I Make My Travel Brochure Stand Out From the Competition?

Quality and inspiration are the keys to success. The better you work out the design and graphics of your booklet, the more likely it is that it will appeal to tourists during their vacation. 

Should I Focus More on Visuals or Content in My Travel Brochure?

Of course, on the visual part, since it is the first thing people pay attention to.

Travel Brochures: Highlighting the Setting of a Story

Travel Brochures: Highlighting the Setting of a Story

  • Resources & Preparation
  • Instructional Plan
  • Related Resources

Imagine the images and detailed descriptions of the places depicted in a book you've read recently—whether a far-away land, a historical location, or a city just like the one you live in. Settings transport readers to these places, inviting them to consider what it would be like to visit these locations personally. This lesson plan takes that imaginary tourism one step further by asking students to create a travel brochure for locations in texts that they have read. The activity requires students to think about and collect the details mentioned in the text that should be highlighted and conduct additional research on the location as they design their own brochures. This lesson plan uses Al Capone Does My Shirts by Gennifer Choldenko as the example; however, any text in any genre would work well.

Featured Resources

Travel Brochure Rubric : Use this rubric to evaluate the organization, ideas, conventions, and graphics of travel brochures students have created. Recording the Setting Bookmark : Students use this reproducible sheet, which can be cut into bookmarks, to record details about a story's setting as the read. Printing Press : Use this online tool to create a newspaper, brochure, booklet, or flyer. Students choose a layout, add content, and then print out their work.

From Theory to Practice

Often, students end a unit of study by writing a traditional research paper. While this is a good way for students to summarize what they have learned, it may not be the most interesting. Beyond that, it frequently results in summary and rote repetition rather than deep critical thinking. In this lesson plan, students go through the research process, but will take that information and turn it into a travel brochure. In her English Journal article, Janet Northrup says, "Unlike a research paper that usually has two readers, the teacher and the student, a pamphlet encourages ownership of a topic, a topic which each student knows will be shared with (and taught to) others. Also, class members develop research skills. They learn how to find information, develop a sense of voice and audience, write an arguable thesis statement, select relevant facts, create an interesting layout, and edit carefully." This project will meet the needs of both students and the teacher. Further Reading

  • Have a copy of the Example Bookmark , Example Research Notes , and Example Setting Brochure to share with the students.
  • Test the Printing Press on your computers to familiarize yourself with the tools and ensure that you have the Flash plug-in installed. You can download the plug-in from the technical support page.

Student Objectives

Students will

  • learn what makes a good travel brochure by examining commercial brochures.
  • think critically about text details from a text they have read.
  • create a travel brochure that incorporates research skills and text details.

Session One

  • Where did they go?
  • How did their families decide to go to these places?
  • What kinds of brochures, travel guides, books, and/or advertisements did their families explore before traveling?
  • If students have experience with travel guides and travel brochures, invite them to share what they remember about them.
  • Explain that the class is going to create travel brochure about one of the texts that students have read, focusing primarily on the setting of the story.
  • Display a variety of travel brochures. Provide time for students to look through the brochures, in groups, pairs or individually. Ask them to pay attention to layout, the highlighted features, illustrations, and the style of the included text.
  • Are there maps? photos? diagrams? other illustrations?
  • What kind of language and vocabulary is used?
  • How is text presented? paragraphs? bulleted lists?
  • Are there specific places highlighted? What kind?
  • Ask the students if they would like to visit any of the places in the brochures. If the students answer affirmatively, ask them to share what in the brochures made them want to visit. If students answer negatively, ask them to share why they would not like to visit that locale.
  • Have students brainstorm what make an effective travel brochure. Record their responses on the board or on chart paper. Some answers may be the pictures, the supporting text, the quotes from visitors, and so forth.
  • Explain that while the pictures and photos are added bonuses on travel brochures, the text plays an important role in persuading people to visit a certain place.
  • Review persuasive writing with students: In a persuasive writing piece, students begin by determining their goal or thesis. They then identify three reasons to support their argument, and three facts or examples to validate each reason. The Persuasion Map Planning Sheet makes a good visual for the students.
  • Brainstorm the kinds of information students need to include in their travel brochure. Record this information on the board. You can also refer to the Things to Include in a Travel Brochure handout.
  • Show the students the Travel Brochure Rubric so they know the requirements for the project.
  • Once students know the expectations for the assignment, ask them to choose a text for their brochures. Try not to have too many students using the same text. This lesson plan uses Al Capone Does My Shirts by Gennifer Choldenko as the example.

Session Two

  • When all of the students have selected a text for the project, invite them to revisit the text to look for examples and passages about the setting.
  • Demonstrate how to use the Recording the Setting Bookmark to note the examples from the text. Display the example bookmark and discuss the details that are included.
  • Pass out copies of the Recording the Setting Bookmark for students to use.
  • Give students the rest of the session to collect details from their books.
  • As students examine their texts for examples, circulate through the room. This is a good time to take observational notes or ask students questions as they are working.

Session Three

  • Once students have found examples from their text about the setting, explain that it’s time for them to conduct research on the setting using the Internet, reference materials, magazines, newspapers, etc. Students can visit Notes from the Road and Travel & Cultures for information on many areas of the world. If the students are using a Science Fiction or Fantasy text, they may have a more difficult time with the research. In that case, they should rely more on their findings in the text.
  • Invite students to record their research findings on the Things to Include in a Travel Brochure handout. Share with them the example research notes .
  • As students are researching, help as needed.
  • Briefly demonstrate the Printing Press for students. Show the students how they can use the tool to create their finished product. Place students’ emphasis on thinking about the content for the brochures and flyers, as the Printing Press will make the process of making the final product a simpler one.
  • You can also share with the students an example setting brochure of a book that the class has read so they can see what they can include in their own brochures.

Session Four

  • After students have gathered clues from their texts as well as completed research on their setting, they are ready to begin working on creating their travel brochures, highlighting the setting of a text using the Printing Press .
  • Assist students as needed.
  • Remind students that they cannot save their work on the Printing Press so they will need to work diligently on their project.

Session Five

  • Once all of the students have completed their brochures using the Printing Press , allow time for the students to share their brochures with the rest of the class.
  • Assess the students work using the rubric .
  • Instead of making a travel brochure about their setting, students could design a postcard highlighting one of the locations mentioned in their text. Students can publish this postcard using the Postcard Creator .
  • Pairing the brochures with the text they accompany would make a good classroom or library display.

Student Assessment / Reflections

  • For formal assessment, use the rubric . Additionally, you can ask students to freewrite on the following reflective question: After completing this activity, what role do you think the setting plays in a text? Will you pay more attention to the setting now that you have completed this activity?
  • Informal assessment can come from observations, interviews, and examination of the students' bookmarks and notes.
  • Lesson Plans
  • Calendar Activities
  • Student Interactives
  • Professional Library

Students read a section from On the Road that deals with cross-country travel and reflects Kerouac's unique writing style. Students then attempt to write a narrative using Kerouac's stream-of-consciousness style.

The interactive Printing Press is designed to assist students in creating newspapers, brochures, and flyers.

These are the 4 best family travel insurance plans

Find coverage that fits your family's travel plans with these four companies..

thumbnail

Family vacations are a special time, and ensuring they go smoothly is essential to making memories that will last forever. Travel insurance is one way to ensure that any bumps in the road can be smoothed over, from a lost bag to an injury abroad.

CNBC Select reviews the best travel insurance plans for families based on coverage, cost and plan variety. (See our methodology for more information on how we choose the best family travel insurance companies.)

Best family travel insurance  

  • Best for families with young children : Allianz   
  • Best for affordability : Faye   
  • Best for CFAR coverage : Travel Insured International  
  • Best for cruises : Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection  

Best for families with young children 

Allianz travel insurance.

The best way to estimate your costs is to request a quote

Policy highlights

10 travel insurance plans make it possible to customize your coverage. For families, Allianz's OneTrip Prime package covers children age 17 and younger when traveling with a parent or grandparent.

24/7 assistance available

  • Trip cancellation benefits can reimburse your prepaid, nonrefundable trip payments if you have to cancel your trip for one of the covered reasons stated in your plan documents. 
  • Limited coverage for risky sports

Who's this for? Allianz is great for families with young children as its OneTrip Prime travel insurance policy offers free coverage for children ages 17 or under when traveling with a parent or grandparent. Though this benefit isn't available to Pennsylvania residents, it could help families with younger children lower the cost of their travel insurance coverage.  

Standout benefits:  Allianz's cancel for any reason (CFAR) coverage has an enhanced version available that can cover up to 80% of trip expenses if you have to cancel for a reason that's not covered.  

[ Jump to more details ]  

Best for affordability 

Faye travel insurance.

Faye offers travel insurance with a convenient online buying experience and an app with real-time travel alerts. It's one simple plan includes coverage for common issues, like trip cancellation, emergency medical expenses and trip delay coverage. It also offers coverage for pre-existing medical conditions when plans are purchased within 14 days of an initial trip deposit.

  • Covers Covid like any other medical condition
  • CFAR is available for up to 75% of trip costs for an additional cost.
  • Additional coverage options like vacation rental damage coverage and pet care coverage.
  • Not all benefits are available in all states.

Who's this for?  Faye travel insurance stands out for families on a budget. Its policies start at just $4.64 per day (for 14 days) for domestic trips and $5.16 per day (for 14 days) for international trips. It's also great for those who want a completely digital experience and would rather manage a policy through an app than an agent or by phone.

Standout benefits:  Faye's intuitive interface makes it easy to get travel insurance coverage on your own time, and quotes are available entirely online. On top of the standard trip delay, cancellation and interruption coverage, you can purchase CFAR coverage, coverage for adventure and sports activities and a pet care add-on, which can cover illness or injury for your pet when traveling with you, or extra kenneling costs if your trip is delayed if you leave your pet at home.  

Best for CFAR coverage 

Travel insured international travel insurance.

Travel Insured International has two simple travel insurance plans — the Worldwide Trip Protector and Worldwide Trip Protector Gold. Its plans are affordable and offer the option of cancel for any reason (CFAR) coverage.

  • Optional CFAR coverage and interruption for any reason coverage
  • Medical coverage can be lower than other options

Who's this for?  Travel Insured International could be a great fit for families looking for the flexibility of a CFAR addition to ensure they'll be covered for any reason they need to cancel. The company's wide variety of reasons for cancellation includes coverage for school year extensions with all plans.  

Standout benefits:  Travel Insured International's Worldwide Trip Protector can cover all children 17 and under for free when traveling with related adults.  

Best for cruises  

Berkshire hathaway travel protection.

Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection has multiple plans to cover vacations from luxury travel to adventure travel. The brand's LuxuryCare offers the highest limits of travel insurance coverage offered by the company. Quotes and policies are available online.

  • Wide variety of policies available
  • Strong financial strength rating by AM Best
  • Cancel for any reason only provides reimbursement for up to 50% of non-refundable trip payments

Who's this for?  Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection offers cruise-specific packages for families setting sail on a cruise.  

Standout benefits:  Cruise plans include coverage for missed connections and unique challenges you could face on a cruise vacation, like cruise disablement and diversion. 

More on our top family travel insurance companies 

Allianz offers 10 different travel insurance policies for travelers and trips of all types, including single-trip and multi-trip coverage. It also offers quotes and claims online, making the experience simple.  

CFAR coverage available?  

Yes, up to 80% of prepaid, non-refundable trip costs 

24/7 assistance?  

[ Return to summary ]  

While relatively new to the space, Faye's travel insurance plans combine affordability and easy access. Policies are backed by the United States Fire Insurance Company.  

Yes, up to 75% of prepaid, non-refundable trip costs 

Travel Insured International 

Travel Insured International has been offering travel insurance for over 25 years. It has two tiers of coverage (available in most states) that can help you meet all your travel protection needs.  

Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection 

Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection offers several tiers of travel protection and insurance, including packages specifically designed for road trips and cruises. Its strong A++ financial strength rating also helps it stand out against the competition.  

Up to 50%, only available on LuxuryCare packages 

Does travel insurance cover family members?  

Generally, you can insure your whole family on one travel insurance plan, so you won't have to buy separate plans for every traveler. Your travel insurance plan will cover every person listed on the policy.  

Does travel insurance cover cancellation due to a death in the family? 

In many cases, travel insurance can help you recoup the cost of your vacation if you have to cancel due to a death in your family. However, you'll want to carefully read your policy's definition of a family member, as not everyone in your life could be included.  

Bottom line

A family vacation can be a big investment, so it's important to protect yourself in case anything goes awry. Having a travel insurance plan that's easy to access, provides 24/7 support and fits your specific travel concerns and budget can help ensure your trip will go smoothly.
