National Parks Family Vacations

1166

The U.S. National Parks are a great vacation for families. There is so much to see and do.  Imagine horseback riding in Bryce Canyon, rafting through Glen Canyon on the scenic Colorado River or hiking in Zion National Park. Sightsee by floatplane, jeep, trolley, sky gondola or jet boat. You can be as adventurous as you’d like, or just take it easy and enjoy the beautiful scenery.  For value-minded travelers, the west also offers vibrant cities, scenic countryside, and small beach and mountain towns. Ride historic trains; try your luck in Las Vegas; taste wines in California’s wine country; or travel along historic Route 66. Pack your bags and get ready for a value-packed vacation like no other.

Here is our top 5 list for family tours to the National Parks:

1.  Canyon Country Family Adventure
2.  Wild Wild West
3.  Quest for the West Wyoming Family Vacation
4.  Pioneer Adventures of the Old West
5.  Red Rock & Painted Canyons

Not family based, but also worth mentioning is Tauck Tours Yellowstone & the Tetons which was just listed National Geographic Magazine as one of the 50 Tours of a Lifetime.

The best time to visit the National Parks are Spring and Fall.  That doesn’t mean you can’t travel in the summer months, you will just find hotel prices are more expensive, which is where tour operators come into play.  They have negotiated rates a year in advance, so often you save money traveling as part of a group. The guides are knowledgeable, and will share their vast knowledge of the region, and show you hidden hot springs and treasures while on your vacation. Programs designed for families ensure that there are activities included for all ages.
