Summer vacation is the season when kids can have the most fun and let loose. We have covered many domestic destinations for family trips. Today, we bring you some of the best international destinations for an enjoyable family vacation with your little ones.
Must-Visit Holiday Destinations for Kids and Family
Tokyo, Japan
As the most kids-friendly country in Asia, Japan is the first choice for parent-child travel. Not only is it clean and safe, but there are also many kids-friendly facilities and thoughtful services that can save a lot of effort for all mothers.

Tokyo Disneyland – A Dream Come True Journey. As the first Disneyland in Asia and the one with the best service, Tokyo Disneyland is worth a special trip to visit. Tokyo Disneyland is divided into two parks: Disneyland (land) and Disney Sea (sea). Compared to Disney Sea, Tokyo Disneyland (land) is more suitable for playing with children because some of the projects in the ocean park are more exciting and are more suitable for adults to play. The highly anticipated grand parade is also set in the ocean pool, which is far away from the crowds. Unlike Disneyland, the cartoon characters and amusement projects are super classic, and children can get up close and personal with cartoon characters during the grand parade. Moreover, only Disneyland has a super large castle, and children know they have arrived at the princess’s home when they see the castle.
The Ghibli Museum in Mitaka – Hayao Miyazaki’s Fairy Tale Kingdom. On the first floor of the museum, there is a “Saturn Theater” showing short films produced by the Ghibli Studio. Although only the Japanese version is available, it does not affect the immersion of the audience. To its right is an animation production showroom that introduces the principles of animation production. The most interesting thing inside is a three-dimensional animation of a Totoro scene, which is so magical!
Singapore
Singapore is an excellent destination for family trips, as it is: Extremely safe, and ranked as the second safest country in the world. Known as the “Garden City” with a warm climate year-round and beautiful scenery, including beaches and the sea.
Despite being a small country, Singapore has a lot to offer in terms of food, entertainment, and recreation, making it easy to plan your itinerary. Sentosa Island is a famous vacation destination in Singapore with three major attractions, including Universal Studios, S.E.A. Aquarium, and the Maritime Experiential Museum, all of which are highly suitable for children.
Singaporean cuisine is a fusion of different cultures, and famous dishes such as Hainanese chicken rice, laksa, satay, and seafood will not disappoint.

Aquarium, Madame Tussauds wax museum, nature exploration and geology gallery, and a super adventure park, it’s the perfect place to take your kids!
Malaysia
Many people only know about famous tourist attractions like the Petronas Twin Towers and Malacca when they visit Malaysia. However, there are many fun and kid and family-friendly destinations in Malaysia waiting for you to discover and visit!
What to do in Malaysia with kids?
LEGOLAND Malaysia – Every child loves LEGO, and in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, just next to Singapore, there is the first LEGOLAND park in Asia. The park has seven themed areas, including a mini-land with 17 Asian landmarks built from 30 million LEGO bricks, a thrilling 4D cinema, and a driving school for kids. Taking your child to LEGOLAND is like taking them into the world of “The LEGO Movie,” and they will definitely have a great time.
Genting Highlands – The places for family travel that we’re going to introduce are among the popular tourist attractions, such as Genting Highlands, located at an altitude of 2,000 meters, which is actually a summer resort for families. The Genting theme park is divided into outdoor and indoor games. Kids who meet the age and height requirements and love exciting rides can challenge outdoor roller coasters, Superman Flights, and more. Younger children can enjoy indoor mini trains, spacecraft, and other facilities suitable for family play in Malaysia. They can also experience facilities like circus rides and tropical rainforest theme parks designed specifically for children.
Dubai
One of the most luxurious accommodations in Dubai is booking a stay at the Atlantis Aquarium Hotel. It has two children’s worlds that kids can’t resist: the Lost Space Aquarium and the Aquaventure Waterpark. As long as you stay at the Atlantis Aquarium Hotel, you can enter the Lost Space Aquarium as many times as you want!
The aquarium is very cleverly designed, and you can quietly acquaint your child with 65,000 fish. There are also water shows and fish feeding performances in the aquarium that children will love.
The Aquaventure Waterpark covers an area of 17 hectares, which is enough for a family to spend the whole day there. If your child is still young, you can go to the Splashers Children’s Playground and play with other children of the same age. If your child is taller than 1.2 meters, they can experience more attractions. For example, they can wear helmets and dive into the underwater world for a shark adventure, watching sharks swim above their heads! Or the whole family can ride in an inflatable boat and experience the world’s largest water slide, the Poseidon Tower.
There is also a Legoland in Dubai, which is bigger and more luxurious than the one in Malaysia. This theme park opened in October 2016 and has less traffic than other Legoland parks. The park consists of six areas, including a water world, a professional experience, and various rides, making it perfect for a family outing.
Bangkok, Thailand
There are many family-friendly attractions in Bangkok, Thailand. In this post, we have compiled a few of the very best ones, including popular theme parks, water parks, zoos, and free parks. Parents can enjoy shopping and spa treatments while also planning a fun-filled itinerary for their kids.
What to do in Bangkok with kids?
Dream World Bangkok – Dream World is known as the “Thai version of Disneyland” and is the largest and most complete theme park in Thailand. Here, you can experience the most fantastic atmosphere, the most fun entertainment facilities, and the most exciting performances. In addition, the models of the seven wonders of the world here are the most popular photo spots in the park!
Asiatique – The Riverfront is a popular night market with over a thousand stalls and restaurants offering everything from clothing for adults and children to traditional handicrafts, and souvenirs. It also has a Ferris wheel and a carousel, making it a great place for the whole family to visit!
Chocolate Ville is a highly popular themed restaurant with candy-coloured houses and a canal running through it, making it a dreamy place to take photos.
Australia
During the holiday or school break, you can take your child on a cute trip to Australia, hug a koala, feed a kangaroo, and see the real Nemo and Dory at the Great Barrier Reef!
If it’s your first time bringing your child to Australia, you can go to the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary in Brisbane, Queensland, to let your child feel the happiness of having a koala in their arms.
In South Australia, where you can also hug a koala, there is an island called Kangaroo Island, which is the cutest island in Australia. Kangaroos are cute and koalas are adorable, sea lions are fluffy, sea otters are lazy, and penguins are silly… you can find all these cute creatures on this island. What’s even rarer is that there are wild koalas and kangaroos here, making it a “zoo without fences”.
The Gold Coast of Australia is a super tourist destination, with Warner Bros. Movie World, Sea World, and Dreamworld being the three most famous theme parks in Australia. As a member of the “Justice League” who grew up watching Superman and Batman, you naturally have to go to Warner Bros. Movie World. In addition to the thrilling rides, Superman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, and even the Joker will come out on the screen to interact with visitors, and Batman will drive his Batmobile to show off.
The Great Barrier Reef, the world’s largest coral reef, is a stunning natural wonder. The area of the Great Barrier Reef is decreasing every year, so the earlier you bring your child to see it, the more complete it will be! If your child can swim, you can snorkel together and become a fish in the Great Barrier Reef, swimming through the colourful coral reefs with Nemo and Dory.
