Australia family holidays

Australia is made for family holidays. Home to unique wildlife, stunning scenery, and spectacular beaches, it’s a vast natural playground for kids. Spend sunny days learning to surf in the Whitsunday Islands, exploring the tropical rainforest of Queensland, snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef, and visiting kangaroo sanctuaries. In many ways, it’s the ultimate destination for a family holiday.

At Travel Nation, we understand the importance of family holidays. It's a time to bond, explore new cultures, and create lasting memories. Most of our travel experts are parents, so we know exactly what it takes to plan a family adventure. We'll offer first-hand advice and personal tips.  

Our family-friendly packages to Australia cater to all interests and preferences. We’ll work with you to create an itinerary that ticks the boxes for every family member, and support you every step of the way. We'll take the stress out of the process so that you can focus on enjoying some quality time with your kids.
