Back in 2015, we embarked on this incredible journey called Wyld Family Travel with a simple goal in mind – to share our family travel stories and photos with friends. Little did we know that our wanderlust would take us to over 40 different countries! From the bustling streets of metropolises to the tranquil corners of our backyard, no experience to big or too small.
We believe in the power of firsthand experience. Our travels go beyond the ordinary, whether it’s staying in hostels, caravan parks, or luxury hotels. We’ve savoured the flavours of diverse cuisines at restaurants and street food stalls alike. Our modes of transport have ranged from planes and trains to buses and boats, giving us a well-rounded perspective on the world
Travel is in our DNA!
As parents, we know just how tricky it can be to plan a family vacation—finding places everyone will enjoy, juggling budgets, and keeping teens entertained (without the eye rolls!). That’s exactly why we created Wyld Family Travel—to make family travel easier, more fun, and totally doable.
We’re the Wyld Family: Bec (Mum), Mark (Dad), Willow (19), and Marley (16). We’re from a small town in Australia where three of us are still based—working, studying, and dreaming of the next getaway. One of us has taken that dream a step further and is now living in China (inspired by all those travel adventures… but we’ll get to that soon!).
