3 Takes Travel was built on the belief that the best trips are the ones that work for everyone. We explore the world through three distinct lenses – grandparents, parents, and young children – because great travel looks different at every stage of life.
From accessibility and comfort to adventure, pacing, and wonder, we share honest advice, destination reviews, and practical tips shaped by real multi-generational experiences. We don’t just travel – we evaluate what truly, realistically works (and what doesn’t) when generations travel together.
Three perspectives. One journey. Travel better – together.
Your Guides
The Grandparent Guide
Meet Gigi: Gigi brings decades of real-world travel experience shaped by raising a family that spent more time in airports than most. She’s mastered the art of family travel, from airport and hotel logistics to knowing when comfort matters more than the itinerary. Now a licensed travel agent, Gigi enjoys exploring the world alongside her family – soaking up the moments and memories everyone will talk about for years to come.
The Parent guide
Meet the Parents: Mom is a former flight attendant, international instructor, and current licensed travel agent. She thrives on the details of trip planning, from detailed packing and sourcing lists to thoughtful itineraries (with backup plans for the backup plans). While preparation and planning IS her passion, the real payoff is watching her whole family enjoy the journey and creating memories that last long after the bags are unpacked.
Dad is the ultimate travel support system, bringing steady energy, humor, and calm wherever the trip takes them. He happily leaves the details to Mom – bringing his strengths to enhancing the realities of the trip – the ups, the downs, and everything in between! His focus in on making every adventure better simply by being all in and ready for anything – and making sure the bags are unpacked when they get home…Mom is already planning the next trip!
The Kids Guide
Meet Captain Go-Go: Captain Go-Go believes vacation mode is the BEST mode. Full of energy and always ready for the next adventure, he keeps the whole crew on their toes – and laughing – wherever he goes. Whether he’s exploring a new city, swimming until they close the pool, or going as fast as humanly possible on slides and rides, Captain Go-Go brings curiosity, joy, and non-stop fun to every trip. If it passes the Captain Go-Go test, you know it’s kid-approved.
