We&#8217;re living in an age where our grandparents are healthier and more active than ever and our parents are working full time jobs and longer hours, meaning kids vacationing with grandma and grandpa is a sensible way to ensure our children are still experiencing the world.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, grandparents often live hundreds of miles away from their grandchildren, meaning skip-gen vacations are the perfect way for them to spend time with their grandchildren, travel the globe and make new memories. All the while, mom and dad get to enjoy a few blissful days of rest (or catch up on their emails in peace). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2016\/09\/GrandparentsandGrandChildren_iStock_wundervisuals_www.istockphoto-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Multi-generational Travel\" class=\"wp-image-6772\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/GrandparentsandGrandChildren_iStock_wundervisuals_www.istockphoto-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/GrandparentsandGrandChildren_iStock_wundervisuals_www.istockphoto-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/GrandparentsandGrandChildren_iStock_wundervisuals_www.istockphoto-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/GrandparentsandGrandChildren_iStock_wundervisuals_www.istockphoto-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/GrandparentsandGrandChildren_iStock_wundervisuals_www.istockphoto-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/GrandparentsandGrandChildren_iStock_wundervisuals_www.istockphoto.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Road trips, touring national parks and experiencing the great outdoors are the most popular style of skip-gen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/en-gb\/destinations\/north-and-central-america\/united-states\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">family vacations to take in the United States<\/a>.

Explore the great desert landscapes, get to know the locals and uncover life that flourishes in such a harsh climate with this trip.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This 10-day trip will journey from Las Vegas to Phoenix, passing through Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area and Death Valley National Park. Drop into Palm Springs to soak in mid-century architecture, then learn about the Mojave and Colorado desert ecosystems in Joshua Tree National Park.
