Interconnecting or family rooms are in limited supply in Europe. The same goes for apartments, homes, or villas that would best suit your family's needs. Additionally, not all hotels have them available... let's plan it.
When selecting accommodations for your stay(s) in Europe, location is always key. This is even more important when planning a trip with children. Location not only means proximity to sights and activities, but also a place where you can relax and get away from the hustle & bustle for a peaceful night's sleep.
It's never a good idea to wing a trip to Europe, especially for families. It is important to plan your day to maximize fun family bonding time and minimize frustration and tiredness. There's nothing worse than going all the way to Europe, spending a lot of time and money, and not enjoying it... especially with so much fun to be had. Let's plan your trip... of course, we will build in time for spontaneity & relaxation depending on how much or how little you want to see & do.
Booking activities and sights that are fun and interesting for young children and teens is essential. Many people underestimate this and end up spending hours in long lines, or worse... being boxed out of seeing popular sights completely. Rely on my expertise to make this a seamless for your family.
In larger cities such as London, Paris, and Rome, it is key to plan activities in close proximity to each other to minimize distance between destinations & allow for a pace that results in a fulfilling, but not exhausting day. After all, there is another full day of adventure & exploration tomorrow.
Many tourist sights in prime destinations are located in areas without good eateries nearby. Those that are nearby tend to be touristy, overpriced and the food...unfortunately, tends to be meh. So, it's important to pre-plan restaurant stops for lunch and dinner. Please allow me to book these for you. My services also include making reservations at hard-to-get restaurants... yes, I set my alarm and make the calls weeks in advance. Hungry children tend to be unhappy children, which leads to stressed parents... let me help you avoid this and have a fabulous, stress-free trip. You can relax and know that you are giving your family the gift of a cultural adventure and memories that will last a lifetime :)
I've seen many families make the mistake of lugging playpens & portable cribs to Europe. No need! Concierge services are not only available to secure these items for you at hotels... they are also available for home & villa rentals via my contacts. Washers & Dryers are also available in many of these properties so you can pack light!
