Spring is just around the corner, and it’s starting to get us in the holiday mood. Plus, this season can also be a lot cheaper than waiting until the summer months come around. Bonus! The question is: could there be a way to make your next spring vacation the most memorable one yet?


1. Staycation

Sometimes it’s easy to overlook the beauty that surrounds us meaning we never have to leave the country. The benefits of staying at home for a spring vacation means you can use your own vehicle that can be packed full of all your own things with no luggage restrictions. There are so many beautiful locations across the nation that it will be hard to choose just one.

2. Sporting adventure

If your family is a big fan of sports then why not tie in your passion with your vacation plans? It could be touring the legendary stadiums of a country, heading to check out a new sporting game that you’ve never heard of, or enrolling everyone in a week-long camp where you can learn the ropes to a new favorite game. This will create lasting memories as well as get everyone up and active.

3. Road trip wonders

Car games - one of our favorite childhood memories! Heading on a road trip can be the perfect way to spend time with your family while taking in all the sights of a country. Plus, it will be an adventure as you can stop off at random points along the way. If you plan on hiring a car, especially when traveling abroad, then don’t forget to brush up on the local laws and other requirements - you don’t want to land yourself in hot water for not having the right licence, for example. 

4. Cruising along

A room, a heap of entertainment, and onboard dining all rolled into one package? Hello, cruise ship! There are so many different types of cruises out there that there is bound to be one that will tick all the boxes for your family. Stopping off along the way will help break up the vacation, while the onboard facilities will offer everything you need all the time.

Could you imagine spending a week lapping up the sun and splashing in the sea while your children enjoy playing in the sand?

Getting outside and enjoying every moment of family time - sounds like the perfect holiday.

6. Themed trip

To ramp up the fun of a trip, why not give yourself a theme? This could be pretending to be cowboys on a ranch, searching for the lost city of Atlantis on a diving trip, or going all European with a trip to one of the many countries. There are so many possibilities, how will you ever decide on just one place to go?
