Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday
Luckily for you, our Original Travel experts have done it all. From the misty forests' of the North to the beaches of SoCal (pro-tip: Californians love shortening terms), our specialists have scoured the state, uncovering all of its great family-friendly activities. Whether you'd like a journey along the breathtaking Big Sur coastline, or a night's stay in a hand-picked luxurious hotel or resort, we can cater your luxury family holiday in California to suit all of your family's needs.
It goes without saying that a luxury family holiday to California isn't complete without heading to the sun-kissed cities of Los Angeles and San Francisco which are so incredibly different but each iconic in their own right. For the tween spirits, explore Hollywood, home of Paramount Studios; and, for a dose of sugar, graffiti and counter-culture, the renowned Santa Monica Pier. If you're after cultural enrichment, wind up San Francisco's steep and undulating terrain via tram, stopping nearby the Golden Gate Bridge or (if you're into sea lions) Fisherman's Wharf, which gives an exceptional view of the Harbour. For accommodation, you're spoilt for choice - from mingling alongside Hollywood elites in Beverly Hills hotels to seaside resorts, you're sure to find somewhere to suit.
Away from the clichés, get lost in one of our top, child-friendly lodges bordering Yosemite. Made for energetic and active types, you'll discover kids' camps packed to the brim with all sorts of outdoor activities - from hiking to horse riding and more.
If you get tired at any point of adventuring through this beautiful state and you need a change of scenery (unlikely, but who knows), our expert local guides and concierge team are on hand to help with recommendations, whether it's family down time or local lunch recommendations. To keep boredom at bay during car, plane or train rides (or just on a quiet afternoon) our Sharky & George children's packs, filled with informative and educational activities, will keep the children engaged and entertained.
