1. The Bucket List Family
Expertise: Adventure Travel & Travel with Littles
Video to Watch First: Giraffe Manor in Kenya
The Bucket List Family is the travel vlog that made me fall in love with travel vlogs. They share global travel with their three young kids.
Their story began when they sold an app to snapchat, sold all their belongings, and set out to travel the world. This travel vlog family was one of the first to set out on a crazy family adventure around the world.
The Bucket List Family has been to destinations all over from the Cook Islands to Zambia to Sri Lanka. Their family is relatable, adorable, and inspiring.
From watching their travel vlogs, I have decided that I will absolutely travel with my kids when I have them someday to enjoy similar travel experiences.
The best way to watch the bucket list family vlogs is from the very beginning, but if you are looking for somewhere to start, check out their Africa vlogs to see the wonder of adventure through little eyes.
2. Top Flight Family
Expertise: Resorts Around the World
Video to Watch First: Soneva Fushi and Soneva Jani
The Top Flight Family produces a different style of vlogs than the other creators on this list. Instead of following them throughout their vacations, they share clips from their travels with a super informational voice overlay.
This popular YouTube channel shares a ton of family travel tips and is one of the more educational family vlogging channels.
The Top Flight Family travels with two young girls to amazing resorts and destinations around the world. They’ve done challenges like 21 resorts in 2021 and 22 cities in 2022.
I recommend checking out the Top Flight Family channel if you want information before visiting a specific destination (they cover literally every detail) or if you want help choosing which destination to visit next (they share the dreamiest places).
3. Flying the Nest
Expertise: Unique Destinations
Video to Watch First: Anything in Japan
Flying the Nest have been creating YouTube travel vlogs for years. For a long time, the channel followed Jess and Stephen as they traveled the world full time as a couple.
They shared a daily travel vlog as a couple, exploring the world including Asia, Europe, and the United States.
A few years ago, they had their daughter Hunter and recently their son, Koa. Now, they travel as a young family. Flying the Nest have quickly become one of my favorite family travel vlogs.
They’ve visited destinations around the world such as Disney World, Japan, and Hawaii. More recently, they’ve begun visiting unique destinations such as Mongolia and Bhutan.
This family is so cute and super knowledgeable about travel. I recommend watching Flying the Nest for inspiration of where to visit next.
4. Sailing La Vagabonde
Expertise: Sailing
Video to Watch First: Their one hour unedited special
Riley, Elena, and their two young boys, Darwin and Lenny travel the globe in their family sailboat. Over the years, they’ve upgraded their boat and recently launched La Vagabonde III.
I love learning about the unique lifestyle of living on a sailboat. I also love seeing all the beautiful destination they sail such as the Bahamas and Vietnam.
5. Jones Family Travels
Expertise: Disney and Cruising
Video to Watch First: Disney Cruise Series
The Jone Family feels like a normal family you would be friends with, which makes their videos so comforting and relatable.
They capture their family travels with two teenage kids on vacations such as Disney, cruising, and other popular destinations around the world.
They do a great job capturing their family’s personalities, the pro’s and con’s of the destination, and travel tips.
6. Fernweh Chronicles
Expertise: Documentary-style travel

Fernweh is a German term that is often described as a longing for distant places, a yearning for travel. Tara, George, and family run a beautiful and professional family YouTube channel, Fernweh Chronicles.
Their videos are documentary style and look like they belong on network TV. They showcase unique travel experiences such as visiting the Galapagos or staying with a rural tribe, the Mentawai.
7. Epic Family Road Trip
Expertise: Road Trips and Camping
Video to Watch First: Rain Forest Overland Jeep Adventure
The Epic Family Road Trip travel is all about adventure, camping, and off-the-beaten-path destinations. Their videos are slower paced and more tv-show style than some other vloggers.
They film their show in a “season” format with different episodes that showcase their lives exploring the world as a family. Some adventures they’ve done are camping in remote Canada in the winter, driving an overland Jeep, and living in an off-grid cabin.
