Tips for Traveling with Adult Children: Lessons Learned from a Family Trip to China

Title: Family shares tips for successful travel with adult children

Traveling with adult children can be a rewarding experience, full of bonding and shared memories. A recent trip to China by one family led to valuable insights and guidelines for successful travel with adult offspring.

The family learned to consult everyone about the itinerary, stay calm when things go wrong, not overbook themselves, create a shared document with important information, hire a guide for the tricky stuff, get separate rooms for personal space, choose a hotel near activities everyone will enjoy, compromise on dining locations, and not get upset if not everyone wants to visit every site.

The family also emphasized letting adult children pitch in, organize and lead parts of the trip, consider scheduling relaxing travel, discuss money matters beforehand, and wait a few months before planning the next big trip to allow for reflection and anticipation.

Through embracing these guidelines, the family was able to navigate their trip with grace, understanding, and a sense of adventure. These tips can serve as a helpful roadmap for other families looking to travel with adult children and create lasting memories together.
