After a seemingly endless winter, our thoughts are turning to the wonderful, warm concept of summer vacation. The 25 travel blogs we've highlighted here provide everything from practical advice (packing lists, passport info, how to navigate a souk in Marrakech) to gear guides to pure armchair escapism. So whether you're looking for destination ideas or for that perfect bikini to wear on the beach in Brazil, these sites offer a wealth of advice and expertise for families on the go. - Christina Ohly Evans

Jenss Family Travel | Rainer Jenss
Who: Rainer Jenss, father of two, New York
Why we love this site: The Jenss family travelogue is part of National Geographic’s Intelligent Travel site and features such far-flung adventures as dog-sledding in Canada and scuba diving in Palau (21 hours of flight time from NYC – this one was deemed “a bear”). As the former publisher of National Geographic for Kids and a dad of two boys, Jenss has a great sense for what parents are looking for in a vacation and what kids of all ages will actually enjoy. In addition to “extreme” travel, he also writes about everyday excursions to nearby Lake Placid, NY, and trips to see the fantastic Christmas Lights in Dyker Heights, Queens.
