School’s Out! Top 3 Travel Destinations for Families with Kids

Introduction
School’s out and it’s the perfect time for families to pack their bags and create unforgettable memories. Whether you’re planning a quick getaway or a full-on summer adventure, traveling with kids doesn’t have to be stressful. At Poet’s Year-Round Travel, we specialize in making family travel simple, exciting, and affordable. Here are our top three kid-friendly destinations—plus insider tips to keep every member of the family smiling.

  1. Orlando, Florida – Theme Park Capital of the World

Why it’s great
Orlando is a dream destination for kids (and kids at heart). With Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando Resort, LEGOLAND Florida, and SeaWorld all within easy reach, there’s never a dull moment.

Kid favorites

  • Magic Kingdom classics like It’s a Small World and Peter Pan’s Flight

  • The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal

  • LEGOLAND’s interactive rides and shows for younger adventurers

Travel-agent pro tip
Stay at a partner resort that offers free shuttles and early park entry. Pair that with Genie+ or Express Passes to spend less time in line and more time making memories.

  1. San Diego, California – Sun, Sea & Safari

Why it’s great
San Diego blends outdoor fun with educational attractions. Think beaches, world-class zoos, aquariums, and even historic ships turned museums.

Kid favorites

  • San Diego Zoo and Safari Park for up-close animal encounters

  • Birch Aquarium and the USS Midway Museum for hands-on learning

  • Coronado Beach’s gentle surf and endless sandcastle possibilities

Travel-agent pro tip
Bundle multiple attractions with a Go City Pass to save time and money. I can customize the pass combo to fit your family’s pace and interests.

  1. Cancun, Mexico – All-Inclusive Family Paradise

Why it’s great
Cancun isn’t just for honeymooners. Many resorts now cater specifically to families, with waterparks, kids’ clubs, and shallow turquoise waters perfect for first-time snorkelers.

Kid favorites

  • Resort-run kids’ camps, water slides, and evening shows

  • Snorkeling and paddleboarding in calm lagoons

  • Day trips to Xcaret or Xel-Há eco-parks for nature-filled thrills

Travel-agent pro tip
Choose an all-inclusive that offers family suites with separate sleeping areas, kid-approved menus, and on-site babysitting so parents can catch a sunset dinner for two.
