This expert executes adventurous family trips in places such as Iceland, Norway, and Sweden that offer a mix of thrills for kids and adults alike: polar bear viewing, hiking in lava caves, reindeer herding, and spotting the northern lights. Some of her favorite less-traveled spots in these popular countries include Iceland’s north coast, particularly the Lake Myvatn region, and the world’s northernmost settlement Longyearbyen, in Norway.

Herz likes Iceland in particular for families because, for young children, “it makes everything they learn in their geography classes real. Standing astride (or snorkeling between) tectonic plates, seeing boiling water launched from the earth at bubbling geysers, and watching active volcanoes with glowing lava—it’s the ultimate school trip and an example of travel being the very best education.”
