What's Your Vacation Style?

Your travel style - the type of trip you like best - is vital when it comes to booking a family vacation and can mean the difference between being bored and needing another vacation when you get home! Unplugged vacationers prefer lazy days of hanging out together. Culture vultures crave the sizzle of a big city's museums, shows and festivals. Adventurers seek the excitement of new experiences such as kayaking or off shore fishing while the some of everything family likes to pick and choose, combining elements of each category.
