[quote=Anonymous]I have not taken a guided tour with children but the ones that are adult oriented are just that. Its not going to work well with your nap schedules or even the interests of your children. Perhaps you can find a company that simply books your airline and hotel accomodations, airport transfers etc and helps get tickets to various things rather than a day by day guided tour. We took our 5 year to Italy without any tour and he was miserable in city settings, didn't like musuems or cathedrals and we ended up switching our focus half way thru the vacation to better suit his needs and keep us all happier. I think perhaps having a in between style trip would be easier for you. I haven't used a travel agent in years but maybe you can start there. Think about how long you want to go for, what cities you want to see and what types of things you might want to do. Many things are focused on art and history which can be a little tough for kids. Growing up we did tours but I was much older and they were coach tours - you picked 3 cities and everything was managed for you. It worked fine for older kids but I doubt that style would work well for younger kids who have naps or need to move more.[/quote]
