“In 10 years, we’ve seen the family sector explode to encompass 37 percent of all American leisure travel. Family Travel Forum’s grandparents and parents want to experience new destinations and adventures with their children – not in spite of them,” notes publisher John Manton. “It’s our job to support them.”

The 2005 award winners were selected from more than 100 active, cultural and resort vacations nominated by readers and correspondents. By evaluating the potential for on-site shared experiences, guided adventures, desirable locations and a variety of accommodations in different price ranges – before making site inspections – the FTF staff selected the very best family vacation destinations.
