What do we do? We dig for the “good stuff” and share our discoveries. The FamilyTravelFiles.com consistently remains at the top of the family vacation search lists generated by AOL, Google, and Yahoo. We focus on leisure destinations that provide exceptional family vacation opportunities. Our intent is to provide the reasons for vacation plans to be consummated.  

When did we begin? Established in 1998 the FamilyTravelFiles.com has grown steadily by showcasing a wide variety of family vacation options. Our growth has been double digit each year keeping us consistently at the top of family vacation keyword searches.

Why is a website dedicated to family travel important? Adults with kids living at home have limited time to spend searching for family vacation ideas. While large travel booking sites provide dozens of travel “deals,” few are really for families and those that are provide limited information about the vacation experience. The reverse is true at our site. Our pages showcase family vacation ideas 24/7 and 365. We do not make reservations. Our business model maximizes vertical linking providing the best experience for our readers and the maximum results for our travel partners.

How do we put it all together? We research, travel, and interview, with the intent of improving the online planning experience for families. The information is showcased several ways. Our homepage is an electronic magazine with new and interesting vacation ideas for families in rotation weekly. Our vacation directory is loaded with family vacation product provided by our partners. They offer family vacations and family vacation packages that are truly for families. The banner ad mix at our site contains only relevant family travel product.

Established in 1982 to meet the needs the growing travel business. The company provides a range of support services including content research and creation, online publishing, product development.   

We agree with Maya Angelou,  Human beings are more alike than unalike, and what is true anywhere is true everywhere. I encourage travel to as many destinations as possible for the sake of education, as well as pleasure.”
