After reading this list I think you'll see that all of these destinations are perfect for families or the solo traveler loOKing to have a good time.
Family vacations are important; it's nice to escape at times. And nothing creates better memories and builds a better bond in the family than spending time abroad. Children will especially benefit from spending time in other cultures, and nothing helps recharge the batteries like unplugging from the grind of everyday life.
I recommend traveling to all and families in particular. Everyone gains a lot from travel though regardless of being single, a couple, or a family. If you can't tell traveling is my passion and Ive been a vagabond for about 8 years now. It wasn't until the last year though that I really gained the freedom to travel the way I really wanted to travel. Once I started working online everything changed for me financially and time wise.
Whether you're loOKing for an adventure type vacation, a cultural experience, or a nice relaxing experience in which you can kick it pool side while your children go to the aquarium and get taken on Jet Ski adventures, you'll find all the bases covered here.
