What are the best family holidays to take in 2025?
If you’re anything like me, your plate is 95% full.
Finding the time to sit and research, plan and ultimately book holidays eats that remaining 5% faster than I can say has-everyone-got-their-passport?
The solution? Asking a professional to plan, book and coordinate your bespoke family holiday.
Outsource the country research, the time spent sorting out routes, the checking of hotel availability, the figuring out how to get from A to B, to someone who does it all day long (and will likely get great rates, thanks to personal relationships in-country.)
For me, that meant turning to my colleagues, and asking where we should go, and when.
According to our team of ‘Flees’ these are some of the best family holidays to take in 2025 and 2026. (Scroll to the bottom for how to avoid TikTok FOMO)
Asia
Given the longer flight to get to Asia, we definitely recommend staying for a couple of weeks to really get to know the country and make the most of the long distance travel. It’s a paradise for kids – a riot of colours, smells, sounds, activities, beautiful nature and a huge sense of adventure.
Try out Vietnam, Sri Lanka or Thailand.

Europe

A big challenge we’re seeing for family holidays in 2025 and beyond?
TikTok FOMO. How to balance what your kids are seeing on the internet with having a truly authentic, experience-rich family holiday.
Over the last few months, the Fleewinter team have been on some great visits to their countries, to update knowledge and go and say hi to our friends and colleagues.
One thing that’s stood out?
The hordes of people lining up to take the same photo, and the massive price inflation that goes with it. Doesn’t really sound like a great use of time on holiday, does it?
Luckily, there’s an easy way to sidestep TikTok FOMO – work with someone who knows a country inside out, and who will make sure you whisk past the crowds to go and see something much more authentic than the latest viral video.
Trend follower? Nah.
Trend setter? Much cooler.
