Particularly popular with parents of toddlers and other young children, Baby Beach in Lahaina is a fantastic choice for those seeking swim time sans waves. Your family can easily do the walking tour in a few hours and then explore the modern waterfront area, stopping to grab a drink or meal along one of Lahaina’s waterfront venues. For an exciting way to explore Lahaina, consider booking a Segway Tour of Lahaina to learn about this area of town from a local guide. A few favorite places to try this treat include Peace Love Shave Ice in Kihei, Island Cream Company in Lahaina, and Ululani’s at several locations on the island.

If you want the full experience, visit both the Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Hogsmeade at Universal’s Islands of Adventure AND Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Diagon Alley at Universal Studios Florida. You can also access Wizarding World of Harry Potter Diagon Alley via the Universal Studios entrance, which is separated from the Islands of Adventure entrance by Universal CityWalk. The Park-to-Park tickets grant full access to both Wizarding World of Harry Potter lands, passage on the Hogwarts Express, as well as all the other rides, attractions and shows at Universal Orlando (and there’s a lot!). It can take several minutes to walk from the Universal Studio’s parking lot to the park entrance, and another 15 minutes or so to the entrance of Hogsmeade, and then another five minutes to get to Hogwarts Castle and the line for the Forbidden Journey ride.

Much of the Viking River Cruise’s bus tour of the Black Forest takes place, well, on board the bus. Upon arrival at Hofgut Sternen, a Disney-esque faux German village, you can witness a cuckoo clock making demonstration, watch glass blowing, embark on a guided tour of the forest, and sample the queen of all German fruit brandies, cherry kirsch. and I had when visiting my grandparents’ house as children when each hour, on the hour, we ran into the kitchen to watch the cuckoo bird peek out and cluck the time, I was almost tempted to buy a clock at Hofgut Sternen to bring home…almost. Be sure to step outside the Cuckoo’s Nest shop before the changing of the hour to see the life-sized cuckoo clock welcome the new hour with much mechanical fanfare.
