Excellent Vacation Ideas
With and Without the Kids!

Your Guide to EXCELLENT Vacation Ideas for the WHOLE Family!

We are a family that loves to travel and want to inspire you for your next vacation, by sharing with you what we liked, didn't like and what we would recommend for your next holiday - with or without the kids!

Is it time for a vacation?
Are looking for ideas for your next one?
Is it time to take a break from your everyday?
Time to reconnect with your partner or family?
Than this is the right place to start!

Excellent Vacation Ideas showcases favorite vacation spots and other great ideas, tips and destinations to satisfy everyone!

You will find exciting places and ideas to consider for your next vacation. We will share where we have travelled to - both the good and the bad - and where we are planning a to travel and where we would like to travel. We promise that you will find useful information to help you come up with your next vacation idea!

 

We are a blended family that loves to travel! My husband and I love to discover new places and come up with new ideas for vacation spots, both with and without Montana, Warren's 15 year old daughter and my favorite 15 year old in the world - my step daughter.

We believe that taking romantic holidays, by ourselves, strengthens our relationship, and is a big part of our amazing 11 year marriage! This also applies to our relationship with Montana, a family that plays together stays together! So we make sure that we have a family vacation at least once every year. We have even found some vacations that allow us to do both!

We will be continually updating this site with information on the travel I have done, we have done together, what we are planning, plus some exciting things we would like to do in the future. We will even include information on travelling with your pets. I have travelled to all of our planet's continents - except Antarctica (and between you and me - I keep trying to fit that in to our travels somehow!)

We will show you lots of pictures, a videos, and tell you what we loved best about certain places, and will be honest about what to avoid.

There is no better investment then spending the money to travel with those you love!

To navigate through our site see the awesome vacation spots we have been lucky to travel too, including:

North America
Europe
Caribbean
South Pacific, Asia and Africa

We will be updating it regularly so please add our What's New at Excellent Vacation Ideas section to your RSS feeds, Google or your social bookmarks (see left hand side of page).

So grab a drink, or a snack, fasten your seatbelt and take a look through our site.

Thanks and Happy Travels,
