Barcelona is an affordable family vacation that invites you to stroll along sun-kissed beaches, gaze at Antoni Gaud\u00ed\u2019s architecture and tuck into tapas. We recommend a family trip to Parc G\u00fcell \u2013 the green lung of Barcelona \u2013 located in Gr\u00e0cia district. This 17-hectare park was designed by Gaud\u00ed to bring peace to visitors and it achieves its goal: with spotless greenery, winding paths, pretty buildings, sculptures and mosaics all on show. On the same note, a wander into the unfinished Sagrada Familia will leave you speechless (and is best discussed over a glass of sangria afterwards).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elsewhere, soak in the serene atmosphere on Las Ramblas street in the heart of the city or slap on sun-cream and lie down on one of Barcelona\u2019s nine beaches, before a refreshing dip in the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>GET INSPIRED BY: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/spanish-wonder-end-barcelona\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Spanish Wonder End Barcelona tour<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Edinburgh<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/06\/edinburgh-g6654c05b9_1280-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-869816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/edinburgh-g6654c05b9_1280-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/edinburgh-g6654c05b9_1280-330x219.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/edinburgh-g6654c05b9_1280.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Edinburgh&#8217;s charms will hook you in minutes. It\u2019s a city with a non-city-like feel \u2013 notable for its wide streets, colossal castles and beautiful beach (a short hop from the city centre). There\u2019s a huge range to do here. We recommend lacing up your trainers and hiking up Arthur\u2019s Seat for a family endorphin rush and the panoramic views at the top. Breathtaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elsewhere, history buffs must visit Edinburgh Castle \u2013 famed for surviving countless sieges and its hidden passageways. You\u2019ll also want to find narrow alleyways and medieval buildings in the city\u2019s Old Town; plus savour the Royal Mile walk as you pop in souvenir and charity shops, charming pubs, eateries and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>GET INSPIRED BY: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/best-of-scotland\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Best of Scotland tour<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>RELATED CONTENT: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/7-essential-life-lessons-your-children-will-learn-when-they-travel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">7 essential life lessons your children will learn when they travel<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rome<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B2omBtwIcDd\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018The Eternal City\u2019 leaves an eternal mark on all visitors. Families included. Why? For starters, you can stand in the mighty Colosseum where heroic gladiators fought to the death and hold a one of their swords (easier said than done). Art lovers can admire Michelangelo&#8217;s frescoed ceiling in the Sistine Chapel and his Piet\u00e0 in St. Peter&#8217;s Basilica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A family photo by the idyllic Trevi fountain is a must. As is a leisurely walk (or bike ride) around Rome\u2019s piazzas and winding side streets. And you must not leave without an evening spent in a local trattoria sampling delicious pasta, pizza and wine. Or an afternoon gelato in the sunshine for the kids. \u201cBelissimo!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>GET INSPIRED BY: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/italian-holiday\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Italian Holiday tour (7 days)<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Istanbul<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Ccs8jXMja-q\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Istanbul makes for a super affordable family vacation. And slips criminally under the European radar. Here gorgeous architecture, finger-licking foods, soaring sun and wonderful history engulfs you; and delicious Turkish coffee for only 10 liras (50p or $0.60) fuels your sightseeing. Speaking of which, your trip would be incomplete without a tour of Hagia Sophia. Today a mosque, it was first a Byzantine Christian and then a Latin Catholic cathedral in its 1,485+ year history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Likewise, weaving your way in between the 61-street large Grand Bazaar market bartering \u2013 &nbsp;for ornate gifts \u2013 is a special cultural experience. As is a trip to the Blue Mosque and Toppaki Palace. Plus taste of Turkish kebap, k\u00f6fte and mercimek corbasi&nbsp;(lentil soup).

Glowing white beaches, spectacular sunsets and inviting warm waters flood your vision. Outdoor lovers can snorkel and surf to their heart\u2019s content, float for hours, or take a blissful boat tour. And to watch the sinking sun, we suggest you take a seat on a water-facing alfresco taverna, where you\u2019ll forget about home chores as you devour creamy tzatziki, moussaka and fresh seafood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a slice of history, discover about the 1646 BC explosion that shaped the island of Santorini or visit Ano Mera village whose 16th-century monastery is dedicated to the protectress of Mykonos. A personal favourite, you\u2019ll also want to soak in local life by walking through winding streets dotted with whitewashed facades and smiley, never-aging locals. Pure bliss.
