1. Alaska for Big Adventure

An incredible all-ages playground for big and small gatherings alike, Alaska is a frontrunner for a family destination. Travelling here doesn’t require a passport, yet Alaska still delivers far-flung thrills with its awesome and unique natural wonders. Our favorite private experiences: flightseeing over Denali, cruising the glaciated Kenai Peninsula and gently paced hikes through old-growth forests.

2. Africa for Thrilling Safaris

The ultimate wildlife adventure, an African safari is the stuff of dreams when made just for your family. It can mean thrilling game drives in your own vehicle with your own expert guide, survival lessons with Maasai warriors followed by private screenings of The Lion King, intimate horseback rides and bushwalks, and encounters with endangered wildlife at rarely visited conservancies.

3. Italy to Indulge the Whole Family

Yes, there’s ancient ruins, big cities, Mediterranean beaches, and pasta and gelato, but on private journeys to Italy, there’s even more for families to do together — and apart. Try a unique family culinary experience when you visit a private Tuscan farm. Children may spend time learning about the animals with a guide while grownups enjoy a wine and cheese tasting, and everyone comes together to prepare a dish with the farm chef.

4. Egypt for Budding Archaeologists

A slam dunk for bringing history to life, Egypt shines with legendary pyramids and tombs to explore, private hieroglyphics lessons, and your own private Egyptologist.

5. Morocco for Mountains and Medinas

On family adventures to Morocco, think scavenger hunts through vibrant markets, hikes in the Atlas Mountains, oud guitar lessons and private luxury desert camping under the stars.

6. Costa Rica for Rainforests

In Costa Rica with A&K, it’s about epic zipline adventures, lush rainforest hikes, and luxury eco-lodges in the country’s most popular locales as well as its hidden gems.

7. Yellowstone for the Ultimate National Park

What could be better than hikes to prismatic hot pools and sky-high geysers, bison and wolf spotting, and al fresco picnics in Yellowstone National Park, the world’s first national park? Private, off-the-beaten-path exploration tailored to your family’s interests and led by famed local experts.

8. Greece for Secluded Luxury

Start with expert-selected, pool-equipped luxury villas, and then add the best of Greece with beach time on sun-drenched islands, private cruises and hikes to iconic ancient sites.

9. Paris for All the Greatest Hits

Experience everything from the Eiffel Tower to Notre Dame in Paris, plus a walking tour with a local foodie, a Louvre scavenger hunt and a nighttime tour in a Citroen 2CV.

10. Japan for Pop Culture

A family Japan journey means skyscrapers, neon cities, bullet trains and incredible temples, of course, but also private sumo matches, taiko drum and anime drawing lessons, wild foodie and sushi experiences, and visits to unique cafes.

11. Galápagos for Wildlife Fanatics

The tropical Galápagos Islands are the perfect place to introduce kids to adventures at sea and an abundance of gentle and unafraid wildlife, such as sea lions, penguins and blue-footed boobies. Opt for a privately chartered yacht and your family’s experience with the sea becomes even more intimate.

12. Iceland for Fire, Ice and Social Media

Private insider access in photographic Iceland reveals places few get to see, jaw-dropping volcanic landscapes and glaciers capture young minds and their Instagram feeds, and incredible outdoor adventures keep it all in balance.
