Active Family Vacations

A Backroads Trip is more than just a vacation. It's the perfect backdrop for memories that last a lifetime. It's a chance for parents and kids to truly connect, sharing a week of stress-free travel filled with local flavor, iconic sights and unforgettable cultural and outdoor adventures. Most importantly, it's pure fun.

For families with younger kids, our Kids & Teens trips are thoughtfully scheduled around spring and winter breaks and feature a dedicated Kids Adventure Leader who leads activities like family-friendly kayaking, biking, zip-lining, horseback riding and more.

For older teens and young adults, our trips offer just the right mix of family time and independence. Whether your kids are on the brink of adulthood or stepping into it, these trips offer a shared adventure that helps everyone recharge while navigating life's shifting demands.

Backroads offers immersive, one-of-a-kind experiences that families just can't find elsewhere. Raft through the heart of the Alps, hike in rugged national parks, snorkel off the coast of the Galápagos or spot the Big 5 on an African safari. Wherever you go, we take care of the details from start to finish while you focus on experiencing the trip of a lifetime.

Family travel has never looked this good!
