When we first started planning our trip to Elba with kids, we knew very little about this Italian island beyond the fact that it looked like a great beach destination for families. It turns out this beautiful Italian island is well worth considering for an Elba family holiday, especially if your family likes a mix of beaches, easy hikes, bike rides and small-town exploring..

Rome is an incredible place for a family vacation, but finding playgrounds in Rome is not always as easy as you might expect.

This Dahlandia Hotel Review is based on our six-night stay on Isla Múcura, a small Caribbean island in Colombia’s San Bernardo Islands.

Cartagena with Kids: Best Things to Do
Cartagena with kids is a fun and colourful stop on a family trip to Colombia, especially if you base yourself in Getsemaní.

It was easy to walk to Cartagena’s Old Town, but Getsemaní also had plenty to keep us happy close to our hotel, including street art, casual restaurants, small shops and a lively neighbourhood feel.

It’s not an easy trek to Ciudad Perdida and, unlike hiking the Inca Trail with kids, there is no train or shortcut to make the journey easier.
