Family Go Global inspires diverse and adventurous families to connect, explore and engage with other cultures around the world, building community through curated travel experiences.
Family Go Global was founded in 2013 by Rebecca Bernard, an avid traveler, education entrepreneur and mother of two, with the aim of making travel easy and fun for families.
Just because you have kids doesn’t mean you want to give up your passport! On the contrary, travel provides an incredible opportunity to not only open up young minds to the world around them but also helps to solidify positive family bonds.
That is what Family Go Global is all about, curating unique travel experiences that center on family first and put learning right up there with having fun. Since its inception, Family Go Global has hosted travel adventures in North America, Central America and Europe and will soon be expanding to South America.
The Family Go Global Travel Tribe consists of globe-trotting families of all backgrounds, shapes and sizes. Our trips are intentionally designed for a diverse clientele and aim to be intergenerational in nature. We believe that the village extends beyond the immediate family and making unforgettable memories with the grandparents and cousins or even treasured friends is just as important.
Our travel guides are not only world travelers, we are parents too! So our trips are handcrafted with all of your family needs in mind. We can take care of everything from accommodations and on-the-ground transportation, to daily activities. Our “Kids Only” breakout sessions and “Parents-Night-Out” are led by experienced teachers and provide your children an opportunity to dive in deeper into learning about the language and culture around them. Parents, this means that you are off the hook to explore and unwind! Trust us, this is not your average everyone-in-blue-hats kind of tour. We combine the best tourist activities with our own off-the-beaten path experiences so that you get a real taste of local life.
Family Go Global’s authentic approach to designing educational travel programs is anchored in best practices in progressive educational pedagogy and relies on establishing deep local partnerships in the destinations that we visit.
We have had the pleasure of working with award winning schools, global non-profits, internationally acclaimed art studios and some of the best language institutes in the world to ensure a high quality educational program for all participants.
Family Go Global programs are interdisciplinary in nature and cover a variety of subjects, from world-changing practices in eco-sustainability and peace practices, to performing arts, cooking, visual arts, sports, gardening, engineering, and more. Our signature bilingual summer camp experiences are anchored in play and have been designed to fully immerse youth in the local language and culture in a project-based way. Family Go Global travel guides, teachers and camp counselors are really at the heart of the travel experience. They consist of a combination of experienced international and local talent, bringing a unique global perspective to each learning opportunity.
Ultimately, our programs are always hands-on and loads of fun for all ages. These life changing cross-cultural experiences help to build international bridges by engaging our youngest citizens in meaningful exchanges that help to foster appreciation and respect for all of humanity.
So whether you are just casually striking destinations off of your bucket list or actively looking for an educational travel experience for you and your young ones, Family Go Global can help you meet your wanderlust goals.
Seize the day, make those precious memories, and by all means let’s Go Global!
