Maybe you had to cancel your family vacation since the lockdown started. Perhaps you have kids or siblings who are also dying to get back outside adventuring. Well, while we are all cooped up inside, why not have a family movie night to explore the world via Hollywood? From the French Polynesian Islands to the plains of Africa, these travel-related movies will have you daydreaming about your first trip after lockdown. So here are 15 family movies about travel!

Moana

Travel Inspiration: French Polynesia.

No other movie will leave you craving an adventure at sea like Moana. This story of bravery, adventure, and island life will impress both kids and adults alike. And above all, the music sets this one apart from the rest.

Coco

Travel Inspiration: Mexico for Dia De Los Muerto.

Coco tells the story of a young boy’s dream to become a musician. (Despite that his family hates music!) Set in Mexico on the Day of the Dead, this enchanting story highlights the relationship between grandmother and grandson. All the while featuring Mexico’s beautiful traditions at this one-of-a-kind festival.

While Santa Cecilia is an imaginary town, it is inspired by a variety of real life locations in Mexico you can actually visit.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HddkucqSzSM

Travel Inspiration: Greenland, Iceland, Yemen, Afghanistan.

With so many epic landscape shots, this film will leave you wanting to go EVERYWHERE. If you’ve ever found yourself daydreaming about travel as a monotonous day slipped by, you might be able to relate to Walter.

Cars

Travel Inspiration: Road Trip down Route 66.

No road trip is as iconic as cruisin’ down Route 66. But did you know Cars is based on the real life town of Seligman, Arizona? When lockdown is over, you just might have to get on America’s mother road and drive the famous road stretching Chicago to Santa Monica.

Rio

Travel Inspiration: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

This story of two blue macaws is too cute to pass up! Not only will you have the songs stuck in your head but you’ll find yourself planning a trip to Brazil’s epic Carnival festival. Kids and adults alike will love this musical tale.

Holiday In The Wild

Travel Inspiration: Zambia, Africa.

This Netflix original has all the makings of a cheesy Hallmark Christmas movie… but we can’t deny how much it will leave you wanting to travel Africa! Whether it’s to embark on a safari or volunteer at a wildlife sanctuary, this movie is certain to inspire your travel daydreams! Best served at the holidays with lots of Christmas cheer. (But we’d be lying if we said it’s not totally enjoyable year round!)

Mammia Mia

Travel Inspiration: Greece.

This classic ABBA musical will have you singing and dancing as you pack your bags for Greece! Filmed mostly on the island of Skopelos, you’ll be itching to toss your swimsuit on and dive in the crystal blue waters. And the toe-tapping music is sure to put a smile on your face!

Lion King

Travel Inspiration: African Safari.

From the awe-inspiring opening number of the film to it’s finale, the Lion King is sure to fuel your wanderlust for an upcoming trip to Africa. Hakuna matata!

Roman Holiday

Travel inspiration: Rome, Italy

If you haven’t already seen this black and white classic starring Audrey Hepburn, add it to your list. She’s as charming as can be. And the dashing Gregory Peck will have you swooning for your own Roman romance. Follow the pair around Italy as the day unfolds. It definitely ranks as one of our favorite family movies about travel!

Letters To Juliet

Travel Inspiration: Verona, Italy.

If you’re a hopeless romantic, you will love this film. And you’ll certainly find yourself daydreaming about beautiful Verona. Did you know can actually volunteer to read and respond to all the love letters written to Juliet like in the movie? How dreamy.

National Lampoon’s Vacation

Travel Inspiration: American Road Trip: Grand Canyon, Monument Valley & more.

Fun, wacky and charming. If you’re looking for a family movie about travel, look not further. This classic captures the feelings many of us have felt while on a vacation with the family. So pile in the car…. and let’s go!

Born in China

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGJh7Zhq6SE

Travel Inspiration: China.

Any of the Disney Nature films will leave you with feelings of awe long after the movie is over. Get up close and personal with a cute panda bear family, a bunch of snow leopards and golden monkeys.

Slumdog Millionaire

Travel Inspiration: India.

This moving film will inspire your future travels to India. But just so you know, it only makes the cut for family movie night if the youngsters aren’t involved. (Due to a few mature scenes!) But overall, it’s a beautiful and haunting tale that will warm your heart.

March of the Penguins

Travel Inspiration: Antarctica.

Narrated by Morgan Freeman and with tons of cute penguins, what’s not to love?! Watch as the penguins waddle their way around the 7th continent. Full of highs and lows, this movie is sure to leave you on the edge of your seat. In other words, prepare to get very emotionally invested in some penguin drama. Bundle up, let’s head to Antarctica!

Brave

Travel Inspiration: Scotland.

Shots of the sweeping Scottish landscape with swells of Scottish music make this movie a real travel favorite! And as a result, you may start making plans to visit Scotland with the family. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!

And save these family movies about travel on Pinterest!

These 15 family movies will be sure to inspire your wanderlust while you stay at home! From awe-inspiring animations like Moana, to feel-good classics like Mama Mia! See if you can guess where each movie takes place without reading the captions! What wanderlust family movies would you add to this list?

  • Samarkand the second time was even more magical! Since I went here last year, they’ve now started doing these “flying dress” photoshoots at Registan Square for around $67, which was definitely worth it!

Go super early (6:30-8) to avoid anyone in your photos AND to avoid annoying other travelers trying to take photos 😬

We also got a few group pics with the Travel Tribe! It’s definitely been extremely fun being here a second time with them!!

  • Kyrgyzstan is rising in popularity as a unique travel destination and its easy to see why!

From the beautiful nature to the well preserved culture, plus being extremely safe, it really makes it an ideal destination, but definitely expect some logistical hurdles 😁

Horseback riding in Chon Kemin and visiting Ala Archa National Park are a must! That's also where we learned about the Golden Eagles, a centuries old tradition practiced by their nomad culture that is still done today, mostly to continue keeping the traditions alive and teaching visitors about it.

Do you want to visit Kyrgyzstan?

------

I'm currently hosting a custom created "luxe-adventure" through the 5 Stans of Central Asia with my group adventure community @mylifesatraveltribe! This trip is in high demand so if youd'd to join one of them, please follow there and sign up for our notifications email list linked on the bio, as we dont publicly announce or send out our itineraries. 😁

Is Kyrgyzstan on your to-go list?
  • I was one of the last foreigners permitted in Virunga National Park in D.R. Congo before it was closed due to many armed and dangerous groups occupying it. 

That experience was one of the most memorable ones in my life, and part of why I’ll always say DRC is one of my favorite destinations I’ve been to (4 times).

But DRC is also one of the most corrupt countries, with some of the most horrific ongoing atrocities committed on the local Congolese people, the environment, and the animals by greedy, heartless humans.

Deforestation, illegal mining for minerals used to make your electronics, and destruction (plus human abuse) are a part of why the animals there suffer.

Poaching for bushmeat and to steal baby primates to sell as pets is another.

If you’ve ever seen a primate, especially chimpanzees, kept as a personal pet or on display, its parents were likely killed so it could be kidnapped. UAE and Gulf countries, Thailand, China, Eastern EU countries, and even people in the USA are all guilty of this.

That’s why one of the organizations I’ve become an ambassador for in D.R.Congo is @lwiro_primates . 

Lwiro Primates take in injured, abandoned, and smuggled primates, and they rehabilitate and care for them, even during a time when their own homeland is a very scary please.

So I am kindly asking today on World Giving Day for Apes, to send them a donation, or at least share their story or the info in this post. Anything helps, nothing does not.

And if you ever see a chimp as a pet, please ask the owner if they’re aware that its parents were likely killed just for it to be kidnapped and forced to be a pet. 😡

The link to the fundraiser is on Lwiro’s page and I’ll share on my Stories!

I’ve brought about 100 travelers to D.R.Congo, and they all can attest to what a beautiful and unique place it is. I pray and dream for the day that we can safely return there and bring tourism back.

  • The highlight reel of Skardu, Pakistan! If you'd like the behind the scenes, see my previous posts or the story highlight! But also, yes, it really is this beautiful!

Do you like pretty highlight reels or do you prefer the struggle clips? 

Asking for a friend...who has a lot of both... 😬
  • The Photo VS the Moment in Skardu, Pakistan (wait for the videos after the photo) for anyone who thinks getting photos is easy, behold, freezing water, climbing on rocks, and magical geese who apparently want to be featured in the pics.!

(Comment "Skardu" and ill DM you my full travel guide plus how to get notifications for the group trip next year!)

What's the wildest thing you've done for a photo??

Thank you Destination Pakistan for the offer to work together and for helping get this footage so I didn't have to always use my tripod or selfie stick!
  • Just confirming that Haveli restaurant has the best rooftop view in Lahore! Make a reservation because it's always busy and ask to sit closest to the mosque!

The entire building of Haveli is beautiful and fascinating! A former mansion that's ornately decorated, and located in an area that was formerly infamous for..brothels!

Now, largely thanks to tourism demand, this area of Lahore is a lot cleaner and safer than it used to be, and it offers some of the most spectacular sites to see, both from above and below!

What would you rate this view from 1 to 10??
  • Made it to Skardu without any flight issues! Flights to and from the mountain region of Pakistan have a pretty high rate of cancellation due to unpredictable weather...

And speaking of unpredictable weather, the reports said it would be really cold, but it was warm, so i "had to" go shopping for shalwar kameez as soon as I arrived 😍

Then it was off to the Shangri La Lake for some pink tea before making the drive to Shigar cold desert for a sunset horseback riding session, before settling into a beautiful riverfront boutique resort!

Everyone says you have to go to the northern mountains of Pakistan, and now I see why! This place is magical and I only have a few days to explore!

PS did you know that this region has the highest number of world's tallest mountain peaks, it has has both deserts and lakes at extremely high altitudes, and also the largest glaciers in the world aside from the polar regions??

More coming soon! Do you want to visit Skardu??

KYRGYZSTAN! A destination many travelers are talking about this year, especially with the recent World Nomad Games happening here recently!

This is country 1 of 5 of my custom created 5 'Stans Group Adventure itinerary for my Travel Tribe, and it has already been an incredible journey so far (albeit, extremely difficult logistically)

Kyrgyzstan is a gem for those who love pristine nature and unique well preserved cultures! 

The Golden Eagles are a staple of ancient nomadic culture here, and today are showcased in the National Parks and other areas to keep their culture alive and educated about! These giant birds were used to hunt and as status symbols, and are like family members to the owners!
