Destinations

Before we start name-dropping the fun destinations all around the world, we should define the term ‘all-inclusive holidays.’ For anyone who doesn’t know, the purchase of a holiday package that includes a variety of services that cover important traveling needs, such as accommodation and meals, to luxury experiences, like access to spa centers, guided tours, and special events, is an all-inclusive holiday.

People usually prefer such packages because they not only get to make both necessary and fun travel arrangements, killing two birds with one stone but also save money. Does that sound like something that you would be interested in? If yes, we know just the right destinations for all-inclusive holidays!

Destination 1: Maldives

The Maldives is one of the top summer destinations that travelers from all around the world dream of visiting. This is a totally logical dream since a picture of the turquoise beaches, the luxury villas, and the delicious foods are enough to make you fall in love with the whole country.

Besides the beach resorts, do you know what are the must-see attractions in the Maldives? If you are unsure, an all-inclusive holiday will provide you with opportunities to go dolphin-watching, tour Male, the capital of the Maldives, or try water sports, such as scuba diving and parasailing.

First on our list is the Male City which is the center of experiencing the Maldives culture. You can attend the Grand Friday Mosque, the Tsunami Museum, or spend some time at the Artificial Beach here. Then, we have the Addu Atoll, full of mesmerizing islands. You get to discover the famous Gan Island here, along with experiencing a heavenly sea dive.

If you want to indulge in more exciting activities underwater, such as scuba diving or snorkeling, then Maafushi Island should be your next top destination. Here, you can go to Furafathi and enjoy the thriving marine life. Next is the night fishing and Boduberu Show, which deserves your equal attention. 

Destination 2: The French Alps

France is mainly famous for Paris and its countryside. Well, its mountain scenery is equally stunning. The French Alps attract a large number of ski lovers and thrill-seekers every winter. There are many ski areas that stand out for their challenging slopes and dramatic landscapes.

You can find excellent deals in order to visit breathtaking places such as Val Thorens, Tignes, La Plagne, and other popular areas on Erna Low. Many travelers prefer booking all-inclusive offers. Otherwise, ski holidays can be a bit overwhelming since there are a lot of things that they need to arrange, such as finding the right ski resort for their level, ski passes, hiring ski gear, and so on.

You can commence your tour by visiting the city of Chambery, as it attracts a significant amount of French charm. The entire place is resemblance of a fairy tale which is no less than a paradise for tourists. 

If you are a nature lover who loves to taste greenery, then the villages in the French Alps deserve one of your visits. The conventional villages here are tucked away from the crowded tourist attracts, which ultimately provides you peace and tranquility after a day of travel. 

Destination 3: Bali

We will go back to a sun-kissed destination; Bali, or the Island of the Gods as it is also called, is an island in Indonesia. Although you could easily spend your days having fun on its beautiful beaches, there are myriads of natural and tourist attractions scattered all around the island that you should see.

Being given a guided tour of Ulun Danu Temple, spending a few days at the Yoga Barn, and diving in Amed are excellent reasons to book all-inclusive holidays in Bali. The rich arts scene of the land is a top spot for relaxation as well as other recreations.

Next, we have the Uluwatu Temple, which is a famous place of worship in the country. It is located right over the plunging sea cliff at popular surf spots in Bali. Are you looking for a romantic destination? Then, don’t forget to visit Mount Batur, which is an ultimate honeymoon destination. 

Another interesting place to discover in Bali is the Monkey Forest, also popular as the “Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary.” It is also one of the most exciting places you can visit in the country if you are a wildlife lover. Thousands of monkeys clamber through the trees. 

Destination 4: Greece

Greece is a fantastic destination all year round. A cruise around the Aegean or the Ionian islands in the summer and a road trip from Athens to Thessaloniki, the two biggest cities in the country, in winter are just two fun ways to get to know Greece. Tickets to archaeological sites and museums are one thing that must not be missing from your Greek holidays.

How can we resist mentioning Santorini when talking about Greece? It is considered as the Aegean diamond. Lots and lots of travelers are attracted to this island’s beauty each year. You should not miss taking a dip in the picturesque turquoise water. 

Next, we have Chios on our list, which might be a little off-track but extremely underrated. This hidden gem consists of medieval-themed villages, unique options for accommodation, and of course, stunning beaches. Don’t forget to check out the Oz Cocktail bar located in Chios town, as it has got some of the exciting drinks all across the globe.

What Are The Best Family Road Trip Destinations In The USA? When Our Kids Decide 

BY  Sibashree Jan 20, 2026

A good summer trip! For the longest time, these road trips have been the ultimate bonding time for our family. Us, our parents, and the stars, the 15-year-old moody chatterbox, and the 10-year-old, giving me young Sheldon vibes.  Now, my daughter has always been a sport, and she has behaved her best during road trips. It’s my son who always brings the challenges. Also, he is now 10 and has a lot of opinions to share.  And with him growing up, the perennial sibling fights are more frequent. So, this time, we let our kids prepare their lists and make small chits. The trick was to shuffle the chits and keep them in a bowl. Finally, I will pick the chit, and it will be the place we go for this summer's road trip.  Now, I was amazed to see how detailed and diverse their lists were! Here are the best family road trip destinations they chose for this summer.  What Are The Best Family Road Trip Destinations In The USA? Be it the on-mountain summer experience, the dream adventure in the national parks, or the iconic and mighty Niagara Falls! The best places to travel with kids on a summer trip are endless in the USA.  These are the places our kids want to visit.  1. Vail Honestly, I would not have thought of Vail as one of the best family vacation spots if my daughter had not said it.  In the Rocky Mountains, Vail is beautiful in the fall and winter. However, it is more amazing during the summer.  Epic Discovery Learning about local wildlife, adventure sports, and a scenic gondola ride are the main attractions at Epic Discovery.  There are many fun activities for the kids. They can do ziplining, roll down the hill on a tube, or try their hands at the golf club. Also, for all of us, the forest flyer mountain coaster ride can be the ultimate adventure.  Also, if you think that seniors can’t enjoy it, they will love the gondola rides, exploring the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens, and hiking through the short nature trails. River kayaking, white water rafting, and hot-air balloon rides are some other exciting activities here.  Moreover, you can try horseback riding or cattle drives. But as always, I am never up for these things ethically!  2. Orlando This was expected from my son. And Walt Disney is The PLACE when you are traveling in Orlando with kids. And my son has been cribbing since Christmas that we missed the Disney visit this time.  It was I who was unsure about it because I could not think of Walt Disney World without Toy Story Mania, and the reconstruction work was not complete before the holiday season.  However, the restoration of the Toy Story entrance archway is complete now. And this summer, Disney is going to have the debut of the “Soarin' Across America", and the experience around 30th June is going to be more patriotic at Walt Disney as the nation celebrates its 250th year.  Moreover, there is now a new snack kiosk near Toy Story Land. This place sells amazing pepperoni pizza spring rolls.  3. Luxury Glamping At The Resort At Paws Up Now, resorts are the most convenient choices when it comes to the best family holiday destinations. The Resort at Paws Up in Montana was once again my daughter’s suggestion.  She heard of it from her best friend, who went there last summer with her family.  I already knew about the resort, as it has multiple accolades to its name. It is a two-Michelin-Key resort, and in 2025, it won the title of the 8th best resort in the world in the “Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards.” Glamping here gives a wonderful opportunity to sleep beneath the star-filled sky. Furthermore, this cattle ranch, spreading over 37000 acres, has 100 miles.  Along with cattle and horseback rides, you can enjoy water rafting here in the massive Blackfoot River. Furthermore, it has spa and wellness amenities for your rejuvenation. 4. Glacier And Yellowstone National Parks In Montana Montana also has gems such as the Glacier National Park and the Yellowstone National Park. You can do wilderness camping at Glacier National Park with a wilderness permit. It has easy to moderate hiking trails such as the Avalanche Lake, Hidden Meadow, and Highline Trail.  Furthermore, the national park has the North Fork Flathead River and the Middle Fork Flathead River.  Moreover, this 1,583 square miles of wilderness is the Crown of the Continent. It has fossils, a growing wildlife, and a unique geology.  The Yellowstone National Park, on the other hand, is home to bison, grizzly bears, and wolves. In fact, the concentration of mammals here is the highest among the lower 48 states.  In addition, it has reptiles such as the bullsnake and rubber boa.  5. Grand Teton National Park In Wyoming  The Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming has the National Elk Refuge. It is an area of 25000 acres, offering refuge to 7000 elk.  Furthermore, the Oxbow Bend here is frequented by the mother bear grizzly No. 399 with her cubs. The Kelly Loop, Antelope Flats, and the Moose Wilson Road are the other spots in the national park to spot wildlife such as bison, pronghorns, and antelopes. Moreover, this national park has the endangered white bark pine trees, the bald eagles, which are a species of concern, and the grizzly bear, which is a species at risk.  By the way, I was surprised to see that both my kids had these national parks on their list of best holiday destinations for families.  6. California Coast We have been to the California Coast once during the spring, and I was glad to see that my son wanted to repeat it.  The last time, we started the trip in San Diego, and the kids had a lot of fun at Legoland, the San Diego Zoo, and the beaches.  Then, we continued our drive north and had an extensive beach experience at Pismo Beach, Santa Barbara, Malibu, Newport Beach, and Solvang.  And of course, as we reached the Central Coast, we had to stay at the Madonna Inn. The charm of 1958 is still intact here with the iconic pink dining room and 110 uniquely themed rooms.  A We Continued North  We chose to stay at a resort near Pebble Beach, and from there, it was about 17 miles to Big Sur to enjoy its wonderful views.  Also, we booked a few rounds and enjoyed our time at the Pebble Beach golf courses.  Final Stop San Francisco Last time, our California road trip ended at Santa Cruz. We enjoyed the play at the boardwalk, which still has the old-world charm.  Furthermore, our kids enjoyed their time in San Francisco. Of course, the sundae at Ghirardelli was the biggest highlight. They also loved exploring Fisherman’s Wharf and flying kites by the Golden Gate Bridge.  7. Las Vegas Las Vegas, despite being the “Sin City,” is actually a fun place for kids. My daughter hasspecific demands about the Las Vegas summer trip.  She wants to stay at New York-New York as she is dying to take the Big Apple coaster ride there. Also, she has the Shark Reef Aquarium and the Circus Circus adventure dome on her wishlist.  8. Grand Canyon National Park The Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona is one of the most beautiful road trip destinations. I told my son, “It’s going to be so hot and it’s the peak season, you will feel annoyed.” He was persistent as he wanted to join the “Junior Ranger Program.” “I also want to see the Yavapai Geology Museum, and I want to ride the train (Grand Canyon Railway),” He added.  Now, with his research being so immaculate, I had to consider his choice.  9. Zion National Park I know summer is the busiest time at Zion National Park, and the heat is intense. But it is also the time when we get access to almost all the trails in the park in Utah.  The Lower Emeraland Pool Hike will be easy this summer. It is an easy trail and usually takes 1 hour to complete.  I also chose this trail because it continues through Juniper and pinyon woods. So, even with the high heat, the kids would have a comfortable time walking.   As the trail ends, the beautiful Emerald Pool and ephemeral falls await us.  10. Niagara Falls Niagara Falls was the first place we visited on a family trip after my daughter was born. She was all of two then, but I don’t know if she remembers anything.  I think she has picked things about the trip from our family album. The real thrill begins with the boat ride to the mighty falls. She wants to enjoy the Maid of the Mist boat ride once again this summer.  And if we visit the Niagra Falls again this season, I have plans of descending at the tunnel behind the Horseshoe Falls. 11. Milwaukee And as they say, “The nearer the church, the farther from God," I know that I have missed visiting Milwaukee even after staying so close to it.  Milwaukee, suggested by my son, is a bright city in the summertime. And of course, the young lad is growing up to be quite a bike connoisseur. So, no wonder that the Harley-Davidson Museum was his calling.  The Harley-Davidson Homecoming Festival from July 9-12 is the ultimate time to visit Milwaukee if you are also a bike enthusiast like him.  Furthermore, the city also has the Milwaukee County Zoo and the Art and Public Museums.  12. Washington DC It’s great to see that my daughter wants to visit Washington, D.C. for the summer road trip. I am even happier because I once shared my experience of being there on 4th July.  The teens these days! They don’t show emotions, but they feel a lot! She specifically mentioned that she wanted this road trip to see the National 4th of July Parade and the fireworks.  I never knew that she harbored such patriotic feelings. 13. NYC We have been to NYC once. My son was 6 years old then. He still can’t forget the experience of seeing the Statue of Liberty. So, it was an expectation suggestion from him.  He also wanted to see the views of New York City from the One World Observatory and enjoy the elevator ride. Last time, he even loved the Central Park Zoo and a boat ride on the lake. 14. Chicago Contrary to the questions I get to read online, Chicago is a safe place, and it is one of the best holiday destinations with kids.  I don’t know why my son has picked the name, but I think he has done so for the Lincoln Park Zoo. He loves wildlife, and he wanted to meet the penguins at the “Malott Family Penguin Encounter.” A few days back, he was giving me a scoop on this.  Furthermore, Chicago has the Shedd Aquarium, the Field Museum, and the Science and Industry Museum. All are brilliant places for curious kids.  Moreover, my son is a huge baseball fan. So, a match day at Wrigley Field or the Guaranteed Rate Field would be a lifetime experience. Now, Are You Ready With The Best Holiday Destinations With Kids? Our list of family road trip destinations has been quite diverse. It’s time you plan your adventure! If you ask me, it’s a difficult task to choose among these destinations. I liked all the suggestions from my daughter and son. And I can’t take a side as I don’t want to deal with a sulking face for the next two days.  Nevertheless, from the list here, my favorite would be Chicago. Though kids see it in a different way, I always find it so culturally enriching to be in Chicago.  Also, being from India, Chicago always reminds me of how once a monk from India came and offered a lecture on the inclusiveness of Sanatana Dharma! Very pertinent in the days of wars and violent geopolitical stunts today.
