Family Trips – Gluten Free
More exciting itineraries are on the way…stay tuned!
Travel without the concern of what your family will eat.
Family travel means different things to everyone- keeping the kids occupied during a school vacation, teaching the children that there is a big world outside their own community, celebrating a special event- graduation, birthday, grabbing that last time for togetherness before the children leave home or creating memories with multi generations. No matter what YOUR goal, if you have someone who has a food allergy, just the thought of going outside your comfort zone can make you crazy. Gluten Free Travel-Us. has been creating food safe family journeys for 12 years. We have even seen some of our young travelers grow up, have their own households and come back to us with their new family members!
Ellen, herself, remembers feeling left out watching as other children ate all the things she could not – Cookies, ice cream, cupcakes or even a simple sandwich. Her parents were constantly concerned about her eating something that would cause a reaction. Somehow it became easier just to stay at home. Ellen even remembers her parents feeling so sad for her but there was nothing they could do. This is the reality of a child with dietary restrictions – the world of the family with gluten free (and dairy free) children. Many of you experience this every day and we know exactly how you feel!
Tailored activities designed to appeal to children.
Planning a family adventure requires great knowledge of a destination as well as having partners with guides and drivers who have experience working with children. They are not just smaller sized adults - they have special needs and interests which must be addressed in order to make every trip a success. Below you will find a series of destinations with suggested activities that children would enjoy and even gain some world knowledge.
The ages of the children is critical - a 6 year old would have trouble keeping silent in the Vatican Museums but fall in love with singing along with a gondolier in the Grand Canal in Venice or creating his/her own mask and running through the Piazza San Marco with the birds.
We look forward to crafting a family adventure that meets your needs and every child’s expectations. Even if that is the child inside of you!
