I think the tip everyone leaves out is, make sure everyone gets along and that the person whose traveling with their in-laws rather than their parents is really OK with it. You of course love your parents and probably have no problem being around the as much as a vacation together requires. But for a spouse it can be stressful. They aren’t used to your parents quirks the way you are and might have less patiences for them. And they might feel they have to be “good behavior” all week and so might not find the trip as relaxing as everyone else assumes it is.

I would never have thought of brining walkie talkies, great tip! We often travel with grandparents, mostly because we live overseas. So far, our multi-generational trips have been a lot of fun.

Team building is a brilliant suggestion. I don’t know why I’ve never thought of this for a multi-gen trip before.

I have a very big family, it would be great to travel together like this and still have some time to ourselves and room to spread out. It would be ideal to spend it in such a beautiful destination like Turks and Caicos, great tips!

I love the idea of the walkie-talkie’s! We are going to Ireland in June and will be a smaller group but split between rental cars. Those might work well for us. Thanks for the great tips
