For us, taking a family vacation is a pretty big deal. No matter how many corners we cut, a vacation for a family for 5 isn’t a drop in the bucket. Our vacation will be researched and our options weighed based not only on cost, but on how family friendly the location and activities are. Luckily I won’t have to spend more hours than necessary because I found MiniTime, a family vacation-planning site that launched last year. Think TripAdvisor, but just for families. MiniTime is different from other user-review sites because of the way it sorts results. When you sign up on MiniTime, your profile includes the birth dates of your kids. This ensures that you’ll see reviews written by parents whose kids are the same ages as yours, and find kid-friendly hotels and attractions that are tailored especially for your family.
MiniTime is a website built for parents by parents dedicated to making planning family vacations easier than ever. It offers the recommendations and tools you need to plan, book and get the most out of your experience.
- Original, high quality editorial on all things family travel
- Hand-picked, family-friendly destinations, accommodations and attractions
- Reviews written by parents with kids the same age as yours
- “Trip Planner”- the ultimate itinerary builder for families with calendar, maps, journal and photos.
There’s much to explore on the MiniTime site. Before I had children, one of my most memorable vacation experiences was a dolphin encounter. It’s now on our family bucket list. I read 6 Places to Swim with Dolphins which I found to be a great resource. From there, I was easily able to find nearby attractions and family friendly lodging — it was included right within the article!
No matter what type of trip you want to take with your family, you’ll likely find some great resources to help you narrow down your options and book the perfect vacation! Check out www.minitime.com today!
