According to Danny Wilson Peraji, Market Manager Attraction, tiket.com, careful planning is the key to a smooth family vacation. “Some aspects that need to be considered are the total duration of the vacation, because it determines the duration of the trip, ideal schedule and type of transportation, suitable accommodation, as well as activities and activities during the holidays”.
This statement is supported by Nila Tanzil, a Travel Influencer who is also the Founder of Travel Sparks, "My son is old 6 year. Therefore, My main consideration when planning a vacation is my child's favorite. This can be seen from the child's interest.”
Nila recommends that this knowledge can be the foundation in determining tourist destinations. Example, because the child likes to swim, then Nila often invites to the beach and lake. Don't just enjoy the ocean, but the child can learn about the knowledge of marine conservation.
Another tip discussed in this webinar is planning a vacation that aims to strengthen children's knowledge. For example, visiting the zoo, museum or historical monument, to the planetarium to hone children's knowledge and education.
Children's learning styles are different from one another, some prefer to learn through listening, anyone more interested in seeing pictures, there are those who are passionate about learning if they come into direct contact with the object, and there are also those who choose a learning style that involves their physicality, aka while moving here and there.
The task as parents is to direct children to enjoy their learning process, whatever the child's choice of learning style.
“For example, like my son who is a visual learner, experience seeing animals in the zoo, which he had only seen in books, will be effective in the minds of children, so that it is easier for them to absorb useful and valuable knowledge,”Continued Nila.
One easy way to plan all the activities and interests of holiday supporters is to use tickets TO DO, a product that complements the tiket.com smart ecosystem as the most customer-centric OTA, thus further enriching the choice of superior products for users.

Responding to discussions regarding planning, Nila shares tips based on personal experience, “When on vacation with children, we need to consider the number of activities per day. The ideal is 2 to 3 activity, because children take longer to acclimate to a destination. If there are too many events or visiting locations, then the children will easily get tired and fussy. That is the reason, planning activities with children should be more relaxed”.
Then, answer a question from one of the participants of the webinar, Nila shares a walking protocol that she adheres to, “After the Emergency PPKM is over and it's time to go- the road arrives, some of these tips that need to be obeyed are to carry out disciplined health protocols, bring extra and spare masks, bring a place to store face masks, prepare hand sanitizer and disinfectant spray for children, Then you can also bring your own cutlery.”.
