As a newlywed couple that has been deciding whether or not to even have kids, we made a list a while back of trips before kids. If we end up having children, we are determined to bring them across the world on adventures with us, however, some trips are not conducive for family vacations.
Some trips don’t allow children under a certain age. Other trips are significantly easier to do without having kids with you. So on this podcast episode, we break down the top 10 trips before kids that you’ll want to go on as a couple!
Whether it is an African safari or big trip made for romance, here are the best destinations to visit before having kids!
What are your thoughts? What trips would you take before children? Let us know in the comments or reach out on Twitter @wwhoneymoon, Instagram @worldwidehoneymoon, or email [email protected].
