Your Family's Vacation. Your Actual Vacation.
You've been the travel agent, the snack queen, the entertainment director, and the human itinerary for long enough. Hand it over. We'll plan the whole thing — you just show up with a paperback and a margarita order.
200+ moms, finally off-duty
Track 1: Relax
Track 2: The Truth
You planned the trip. You never actually relaxed.
You booked the hotel. Then re-booked it because of the pool situation. You researched the flights, packed the snacks, downloaded the movies, mapped out the activities, handled the meltdowns, and Googled "is this rash normal" at 11pm in a hotel bathroom.
Everyone called it your vacation. You and I both know it wasn't.
We're here to change that.
Track 3: How It Works
Three steps. No spreadsheet required.

xoxo, your travel BFFSide B: The Founder
Hi, I'm the one who labels the CDs.
Born and raised on Saturday morning cartoons, Lisa Frank everything, and family road trips with a CD wallet in the back seat. I planned my first big family trip when I was 24 and have been hooked on the logistics ever since.
After watching every mom-friend disappear into a fog of itineraries, packing lists, and "actually let me handle it" — I started The Vacation Friend. We do the planning so you can do the trip. That's it. That's the whole pitch.
You deserve a vacation that's actually yours.

"They handled my in-laws' dietary preferences AND my toddler's nap schedule. Witchcraft."
Sam R.
"Got off the plane, into a car, into a hotel, into a pool. No tabs. No spreadsheets. Magic."
