Our Europe Adventure: Three Generations, One Epic Trip ✈️🇪🇺

The countdown is officially on! In just a few days, my mom, my daughter, and I will be boarding a plane for a whirlwind adventure through Europe. But here’s the best part… my sister will already be in Amsterdam waiting for us! Four family members, three generations, and an itinerary that’s equal parts magical, cultural, and delicious.

We’ll be kicking things off in Amsterdam, hopping on a train to Paris, making a dream stop at Disneyland Paris with two days of pure princess magic at the Newport Hotel, and even squeezing in a day trip to London via the Eurostar before returning to Paris to fly back home.

It’s a lot of moving parts, but I have been planning this for months and I can’t wait to take you along for every moment!

Our Itinerary at a Glance

Amsterdam → reunite with my sister, explore canals, yummy food, flowers, and family friendly fun.

Paris → croissants, wine, markets, and dreamy photo spots.

Disneyland Paris → two days at the Disneyland Paris Newport Bay Club has the cutest seaside vibe with lake views, nautical décor, and Disney characters in sailor outfits. It is close to the parks, has a heated pool, and gives us early park access which will be perfect for our Disney days.

London (Day Trip) → hop on the Eurostar, enjoy the London Eye and sightseeing, then zip back to Paris.

Home → with full hearts, thousands of photos, and maybe a few extra souvenirs.

Packing for a Multi City Family Trip

Traveling with a toddler, my mom, and joining up with my sister means balancing comfort, convenience, and just a little bit of crazy. These are my must have travel essentials for this trip:

Tushbaby Hip Carrier – My back’s new best friend for quick toddler pick ups and crowded spots espesically for lines at Disneyland.

Inglesina Quid 3 Stroller – Compact enough for trains and cobblestone streets, but comfy for my daughter’s naps while on the go.

Wayb Pico Compact Car Seat – Fits easily in my luggage and makes taxi rides stress free.

Microkickboard Ride On Suitcase – The ultimate combo of luggage and travel system for a toddler rolling through the airports.

I’ll also be carrying:

A notarized travel letter from my husband giving permission for our daughter to leave the country. (Pro tip: Many countries don’t require this, but it’s worth having just in case.)

Two Travelon anti theft bags (BAG 1 - Black) & (BAG 2 - Green) to keep pickpockets at bay while exploring busy cities.

Apple AirTags in every bag because nothing ruins a trip faster than lost luggage.

Insta360 Camera to capture our adventures in a whole new immersive way. I can’t wait to share those shots!

Why This Trip Feels Extra Special

Traveling with my mom, daughter, and sister is more than just checking places off a bucket list. It’s about making memories across generations and with my built in best friend. I love the idea that my daughter will grow up having photos of her grandma holding her hand at Disneyland Paris, seeing Big Ben for the first time, or feeding ducks in an Amsterdam park with her aunt.

There’s something magical about traveling with the women in my family. My mom shares her stories from her own travels, I get to watch my daughter experience everything for the first time, and my sister and I get to make new memories together in some of the most beautiful cities in the world.

What’s Next

I’ll be sharing highlights from each city, plus tips for traveling with kids and grandparents in tow. From navigating European trains to surviving long flights with a toddler to finding the best places for family photos, you’ll see it all.

Europe, here we come! 🚆🛳️🎢
