Family tours are designed to make travelling with children easier, with theme parks, zoos and aquariums, a relaxed sightseeing pace and family room options. This page lists tours with “family” or “children” in the name, as well as itineraries that include theme parks such as Disneyland, Europa-Park, Gardaland and Legoland.
Routes with Theme Parks
With two parks about 40 minutes from Paris, Disneyland Paris is Europe’s most visited theme park and is added to Paris tours as a one- or two-day visit. Europa-Park in Germany is one of Europe’s largest theme parks. Gardaland on the shores of Lake Garda in Italy, along with Legoland parks in Denmark, Germany, and England, are designed for younger children.
Travel Duration and Pace When Traveling with Children
For families with children, itineraries with no more than one or two main stops per day and time to rest in the afternoon are more comfortable. Tours of 4–6 nights can balance sightseeing with a day at a theme park. On routes with long flights, keeping the first day light is recommended due to the time difference; the day-by-day schedule is listed on each tour’s page.
Children's Prices and Rooms
Prices for children and infants, along with the applicable age ranges, are shown separately at each tour’s booking step; age limits may vary by hotel and airline. Family rooms or connecting rooms for two adults and two children may not be available at every hotel; you need to specify the room arrangement when booking.
Documents
Children must have their own passports, which must be valid for at least six months after the return date. A separate visa application is also required for children travelling to countries that require a visa; children travelling with only one parent may need a notarised consent letter from the other parent. Visa-free countries reduce the paperwork for families.
School Holidays
Family tours are busiest during the semester break, November and April school breaks, public holidays, and summer vacation. Flights and family rooms fill up early during these weeks. Tours scheduled during school breaks and holidays are also listed separately on the November School Break Tours, Semester Break Tours, and holiday tours pages.
Cruises and Family
Cruise ships are another popular option with families: cabins can be arranged to suit families, ships have kids’ clubs, pools and shows, and you can visit a different city at each port. Some cruise lines offer discounted or free stays for children below a certain age. As cruises are considered separately in terms of visa requirements and cabin options, they are listed on the Cruise Tours page; family cabin options and child fares are shown on each cruise page.
Tickets and Waiting in Line
Queues at theme parks get longer on weekends and during school holidays. If admission tickets are included in the package, they are generally valid for one or two days; tickets with fast-track access are often sold separately. Arriving at opening time and trying popular rides in the first few hours makes for a more productive day. What the ticket includes is listed in the tour’s inclusions and exclusions.
