Go wild in Africa
Lions, boars, and bonding – oh, my! Few experiences tie travellers together the way a shared wildlife encounter does, and Africa offers them at every turn. While journeying through Botswana, float over the Okavango Delta in a hot-air balloon together, spotting herds of elephant and sable antelope below. Or, snorkel among schools of colourful, glittering fish during a sun-soaked stay at Mauritius and compare favourites back on shore.
Get your culture fix in Asia
Asia's cultural offerings are as varied as the continent is vast, which means shared learning experiences abound for entire families. For example, in Singapore, follow your appetite from the upscale hotel dining to the city's iconic — and, now, UNESCO-recognized — hawker street-food centers for a one-of-a-kind dining experience.
Unleash your inner explorer in Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands
Golden beaches, turquoise lakes, and towering, snow-capped mountains make this corner of the globe a dream for adventurous families. From your overwater bungalow at Bora Bora, head out for a guided rainforest hike, or try parasailing for birds-eye views of the lagoon. In New Zealand, soar over stunning Milford Sound in a helicopter tour, followed by a nature cruise.
Savor the flavors of Europe
Across cultures, food and drink are at the heart of many vacations, and Europe is unparalleled when it comes to exploring culinary traditions. Why not explore Ireland, where travelers can sip rare and exclusive whiskeys from a 160-bottle collection during a private, expert-led tasting.
Soak up the sun in Latin American and the Caribbean.
In Latin America and the Caribbean, varied terrain offers aquatic, jungle, and city adventures for all ages and skill levels. The crystal-clear waters surrounding Turks and Caicos are ideal for everything from kayak safaris to fishing charters. In Mexico, guests can swim with whale sharks, try stand-up paddleboarding in the Sea of Cortés, or learn to surf along the Baja Sur coast.
Choose your own adventure in the United States and Canada
With dazzling cities, wide-open landscapes, and world-class ski resorts, the United States and Canada offer a little bit of everything. Get a taste of city life, local-style, in Boston, New York, or Washington, D.C. on a behind-the-scenes tour. Experience a slice of Americana and golf on Cape Cod, or plan a ski escape in British Columbia.
Return to the sea
As cruises slowly reopen in 2021 and beyond, family sailings offer a just-right mix of structure, education, and entertainment for families, and themed itineraries make it easy to bond over shared interests. Get up close to penguins, polar bears, and other cold-climate creatures on an Antarctic itinerary, or explore the architecture and history of ancient villages in Italy, Croatia, and Greece on a Mediterranean sailing, or take a romantic trip for two through Europe.
