A family vacation can be a very special thing and for many people, happy memories of family vacations are something they carry around with them for life.

Here are a few tips for planning a family vacation:

• Try to go somewhere every family member wants to go. There is nothing worse than trying to have fun while one or two family members are moaning about some other place they'd rather be.
• Vacation within your budget. Nobody will have fun if you spend everything just getting there and aren't able to do anything once you are there.
• Have fun now, don't pay later. Don't put your vacation on credit because the happy memories may fade if you have to spend the rest of the year paying for the vacation.
• Check inclusions. Make sure your travel agent confirms what is included in your package.
• Get all necessary health check-ups and vaccinations before you go.
• Get adequate travel insurance to cover the whole family.
• Pack only what you need so you aren't carrying too much luggage.
• Check for travel advisories for your destination.
• Keep a separate copy of your itinary and important papers. Let other family or friends know your itinary.
