Multigenerational and Skip-Generation Travel

Generational travel has become increasingly popular. Many families are now seeking to create memories as a family and provide travel as a gift rather that physical objects. Multigenerational travel typically involves grandparents, parents, and grandchildren, but it can also include other extended family members as well. I have personally done this several times myself and this is where my family has made some of the best memories. Skip-gen is usually when grandparents take their grandchildren on vacation. 

Group travel involves organizing trips for multiple individuals. As a Travel Advisor, I can often offer group packages tailored to the needs and interests of your family.  Your focus is solely on creating special memories for your family.  

There are many things to considerations when planning a multigenerational or skip-gen vacation. Here are things to consider: 

• Destinations Selection: find a destination that will fulfill everyone’s travel desires
• Accommodations: comfortable for the entire group near one another and offering gathering space
• Excursions/Activities: find options suitable for everyone given their abilities
• Create Shared Experiences: group meals and games that appeal to all
• Photography and Memory Keeping: capture the moments with photographs and videos, create a shared album and even consider hiring a photographer
• Individual Time: allow time for each family member to partake in activity that fulfills each person 

There are a few options I would highly suggest for these trips. An All-Inclusive Resort includes various aspects of a vacation in a single bundled price: flights, accommodations, meals, drinks, activities and MORE. The best part is you can provide a pretty accurate budget for all travelers since charges are primarily upfront. Many resorts also offer plenty of fun for the whole family right on property. 

Disney vacations are popular for families and individuals seeking an immersive and thrilling experience. Disney offers various packages that include accommodations, theme park tickets, and sometimes dining options. This is a great way to make magical memories with your family. 

Effective communication and planning is crucial for a successful multigenerational trip. Together we will establish clear expectations, discuss budget constraints, and ensure that everyone is happy with the travel plans. It’s my job to make this vacation as smooth and stress-free as possible. This involves detailed planning, attention to client preferences, and addressing potential issues before they arise. From booking flights to arranging activities, the aim is to provide a seamless and enjoyable experience for the traveler. 

Multigenerational travel will provide an opportunity for family members to spend quality time and create lasting memories together. With careful planning together we will create a trip that caters to everyone. Let’s start planning your vacation.
