HOLIDAY FAMILY TRAVEL ON A BUDGET - KidsLoveTravel
Our budget travel tips for making Holiday Getaways more affordable.
Besides using one of our guidebooks to get unique ideas for places to go, here are some other suggestions we offer.
1. PLAN 2 – 4 ACTIVITIES within a one hour drive time of each other. Base you choices on the season of year. Holiday Trolley Tours are so fun – singing carols and sipping hot cocoa…invite cousins, grandparents, etc. along.
2. If your budget allows, have the VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH A TV unit. Play Christmas movies all the way…
3. Choose FAMILY FRIENDLY LODGING. Our family “vacations for a living” so we found budget hotels the norm. We joined hotel memberships and charge cards. We look for hotels with indoor pools and free breakfast. For some reason, if they offer both, they are more likely to be clean and family-friendly environments.
4. HISTORY is easy, if you SNEAK IT IN! Engage your kids by learning with Santa and his elves. Historical homes are basically boring to tour in the summer, but near the holidays, what stuffy old house doesn’t smell sweet with the scent of cinnamon and gingerbread cookies?
What about you?
Do you have some tricks you’ve learned that make traveling to visit relatives at Christmas less stressful but still inexpensive and fun?
