This is simple, rest is truly best after a long international flight!
A great tip to have a smooth transition into a new time zone, especially when traveling internationally with kiddos, is to rest on your first day upon arrival. Keep in mind that once you land at your destination it can take anywhere between 1 to maybe 3 hours to get off the plane, walk to customs, pick up luggage, take taxi or Uber to hotel or Air B&B. If one has this mindset I promise you won’t feel like you’ve lost too much time but rather gained time to appease your child. Maybe after a long restful midday nap, taking a casual stroll during the early evening around nearby sites is perfect! Try not to book excursions or have a packed first full day because trust me it will be tiresome. Relax and enjoy your arrival day, you’ve got the next 10 to 12 days to make memorable memories with your family!
