Vacation Planning Templates

Sometimes just knowing where to start is half the battle. When life is soooo busy with kid activities, and lunches, and work, it can be hard to find the time to just sit down and think about where you even want to go.

Or maybe you’re like me and your family travel bucket list is longer than 3 lifetimes worth of vacation time. Creating a travel bucket list and doing some pre-trip planning are the first steps.

We’ve put together over 50 pages of vacation planning templates and printables to walk you through your vacation planning from start to finish.

That many pages may seem overwhelming. But not to worry, you don’t have to use them all. We just wanted to make sure we covered as many aspects as possible.

Just print off and fill in the one’s you want each and every family trip.

Bucket List & Pre Trip Vacation Planning

Vacation planning can be done in steps. If you haven’t created a family travel bucket list, get your kids and partner in on the action, and dream up all the places you want to go, and things you want to do.

Now isn’t the time to be practical. If money / time were no obstacle, where do you want to go?

Remember there are only 17 summers / years until they are off in the world.

Travel Planning Checklists

Then check out the pre-travel vacation checklist, which gives you all the trip essentials you’ll need to consider, and ideal timelines.

If your trip is happening sooner than 3-6 months, just compress your timeline, and there will be more to do in the short term. Don’t panic! I believe in you.

PRO TIP: Check the expiry dates on your passports ASAP!!!!! Passport appointments are hard to come by, line ups are long, and waiting to get them in the mail can be nerve wracking. Do it today, even if you aren’t sure you’ll travel this year.

You need a budget! I know, not the most glamorous aspects of travel planning, but one of the most essential. Make sure you have a realistic budget, and savings plan to get there.
