Age Related Activities
Mi Familia Internacional specializes in offering age-appropriate thoughtful travel itineraries. We take the time to learn your family’s interests and discuss the best pace and flow for your family or group. Activities can be tailored to engage each age group.
When planning for families with young children (ages 4-12) we find age-related, boredom-busting activities that entertain kids (and their adult companions) and fit your family’s interests.
Exploring the world with teens can be challenging, or amazing. For teens, the intensity and pace of activities is crucial, as well as finding activities that meet teens’ interests and makes the trip relevant to them. We take a pre-trip inventory to learn more about your teenagers and encourage your older children to participate in trip decisions.
Not all adults are the same, and we do our best to select off-the-beaten-path activities that will foster meaningful connections and leave a positive footprint at home and abroad. We listen to you and work from your interests to offer exclusive experiences.
Community Impact Experiences
Our community impact travel experiences invite families to connect more deeply with the destinations they visit by participating in efforts that support cultural preservation, local communities, and environmental restoration. These thoughtfully designed experiences offer meaningful ways to engage with sustainable and regenerative travel practices, fostering awareness, responsibility, and connection while traveling.
A Seat at the Local Table
At the heart of our itineraries are intimate culinary and dining experiences that go beyond restaurants—rooted in the timeless tradition of breaking bread together and welcoming the stranger. Whether sharing a meal with locals, cooking alongside a Milanese couple in their home, exploring neighborhood markets with a Barcelona chef, or preparing seasonal dishes in a traditional Kyoto house, these moments offer rare access to personal stories, family traditions, and regional foodways. Each host is carefully selected for their warmth, generosity, and deep connection to place, ensuring every experience feels authentic and meaningful.
These shared meals reflect our belief that the most meaningful travel happens through human connection. By slowing down and gathering around the table with local hosts, families gain a deeper understanding of culture while supporting local communities and preserving culinary traditions—often creating the most memorable moments of the journey.

Travel for a Life Time.
Let us help you plan meaningful journeys over a five to ten year horizon — whether that carries you through your children’s growing years or toward your retirement travel goals.
The most impactful years for traveling with your children — when they will truly remember, engage, and learn — are between the ages of 5 and 18. During these formative years, families are also balancing school schedules, extracurricular activities, and life’s inevitable curveballs, all of which can limit travel opportunities. At the same time, many families are also dreaming ahead to the freedom and possibilities of retirement travel. That’s why we created the Life Travel Map — to help you plan intentionally for meaningful family journeys now, while thoughtfully laying the groundwork for the adventures still to come.
