Overseas travel with One year old

[lisaandshaun]

Hi,

My husband and i are interested in travelling overseas again but this time it will include our daughter who will be approx 12mths old.

We are thinking about either thailand, maylasia, indonesia or laso? Has anyone travelled to any of these places they their young children, if so how did you plan it, what cost etc.
Any info advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

we went to thailand solo, but took our 2 year old to indonesia (bali) earlier this year.... i think you are winning if she won't be walking, as you can utilise the pram or a baby carrier.... also if she is in nappies this makes things alot easier than searching for a western style toilet with a toddler about to burst...

personally after our holiday in bali, i vowed off travelling overseas for a few years, as the things we did we really could have done in queensland, and saved ourselves the drama of a very long day of travelling, and associated nuances like our daughter not liking a lot of the food etc.... i was pregnant and also got a shocking case of gastro, so this may have tainted my experience.... we have a holiday to qld booked for march next year and to be honest, this is enough for me at the moment (i will also have a 6-8 week old baby)...

that said many people travel with their kids and love it... i have a girlfriend who lives in new york and has travelled back and forth with her young son, from baby age to toddlerhood...

i suppose it depends on what you are after from your holiday....
