California – A lot of people deem this America’s most family-friendly state. There is so much to see and do. Of course, there are plenty of theme parks, including the world-famous Disneyland, and Legoland too. But, this is only the start of it; there is Columbia State Historic Park, Monterey Bay Aquarium, and Warner Brothers, Sony Pictures, and Paramount studios. You can also enjoy horseback riding at Point Reyes National Seashore and explore the many different national parks.

Galapagos Islands – This is the perfect destination for families that love wildlife. It is one of the few places left across the globe where human footprint is still minimal. It is filled with awe-inspiring biodiversity. There is nowhere else like it in the world. You can meet giant tortoises and go snorkeling with playful sea lions.

Greek Islands – For sun, sea, and sand, you can’t beat the Greek Islands for a family beach holiday. This type of holiday is ideal for children of any age. With hearty food, glorious relics, sleepy villages, and beautiful beaches, what’s not to love? The richness and simplicity of the Greek Islands are universally appealing.
