Making educational family travel dreams
Our 7-week road trip across the USA took us far and wide. We came across a small town called Bluff on the way to our next destination being Monument Valley. This pit stop turned out to be one of the best stops we made during our journey. Bluff Fort Historical Site is full of amusing […]
It doesn’t get much more fun camping out under the amazing starlit sky in Utah. It’s every kid’s dream and most adults as well. But you need to be prepared and to do it in style ! After a long 4 hour drive from the amazing Capitol Reef National Park we arrived off Highway […]
Travelling to Santa Monica with our 6-year-old Kidsetter was loads of fun. In the middle of the beach, extending from Colorado Boulevard and the centre of Santa Monica is the Santa Monica Pier. What’s more iconic than the Ferris wheel and roller-coaster sitting atop Santa Monica Pier? With a carousel, an arcade, an amusement park, […]
We decided to do something truly spectacular whilst staying in Las Vegas with our 6 year old Kidsetter – take a helicopter over the Grand Canyon ! One of the world’s natural wonders I wanted to teach our Kidsetter about the iconic Grand Canyon. Easily accessible from Las Vegas, we caught a helicopter and flew […]

We were beyond excited. Only one problem…. the morning of the train ride, we were staying in Telluride, Colorado and had under […]

Bryce Canyon is not a single canyon, but a series of natural amphitheaters or bowls, carved into the edge of a high plateau. The most famous of these is the Bryce Amphitheater which is filled with irregularly eroded spires of rocks […]
Travelling to Zion National Park was a phenomenal experience. The name “Zion” means a place of peace and refuge. 146,000 acres of cliffs, canyons, diverse plant and animal life, and uninterrupted beauty, Zion is well-named. Mesmerised as we gazed up at massive sandstone cliffs of cream, pink, and red that soar into a brilliant […]
We travelled with our 6-year-old Kidsetter to Las Vegas staying at 2 hotels, MGM Grand and Bellagio. The MGM Grand pool complex is spectacular ! 6.5 acres of outdoor area featuring 5 swimming pools. Our favourite was the famous lazy river. A gentle currant flows through the 1000-foot-long pool and we drifted easily through the […]
We drove from Los Angeles to Las Vegas along Route 66 with our 6-year-old Kidsetter. Driving America’s most iconic highway is the trip of a lifetime. In 1926, the 2,448-mile road was designed to be the first trans-continental, year-round highway. It connected urban and rural America from Chicago to Los Angeles, crossing eight states and […]
