Here are some family vacation planning tips :

When planning a vacation, remember the objective of the vacation. For instance is the vacation meant for relaxation, for learning, for unique experiences or for fun ?
Do not pack the day with many activities, which will exhaust the kids.
As children tend to have shorter attention span, do not plan activities which are exceptionally long. eg. visit the muesum for one whole day.
Ensure that the places which you are visiting welcome kids, as some attractions and activities have age limitations.
Always find out what are the policies for children eg. extra charges, of half price, any child discounts etc.
If you are visiting attractions such as museums, consider if your child is able to understand the materials presented.
Don't forget to check out where are some of the child-friendly restaurants and have a happy meal with your kids.
If you are travelling in a budget, do consider family friendly hostels. They provide great service as well. Otherwise, check out hotels where kids stay free.
Hotels with kid's club are excellent as they could keep your kids occupied with fun activities while you can have a break.
Always be flexible during your journey as children are likely to have differents demands at different places.
