Easter Destinations for Families with Children by Car

Easter is approaching, and most of us have already planned our family getaways. Some will travel to their villages, while others are looking for alternative destinations for their Easter holidays.

If you have not yet decided on your Easter destination with children, keep reading below to our top choices.

Before we start our list of 4+1 destinations for Easter with kids, we want to highlight that on this blog we will focus on island destinations. Besides, a trip to one of the following Greek islands will definitely be a refreshing experience for the whole family.

Corfu - Must-visit during the Easter holidays with kids

Some might say that Corfu is a mainstream choice. However, we believe that Easter in Corfu is something that everyone should experience at least once.

For kids, Easter is all about nature, celebrations, and joyful events. Every Easter, the island fills with people coming to Corfu to enjoy the festive atmosphere and witness the preparations for Holy Week.

The Philharmonic Society of Corfu parades through the narrow streets filling them with music. The celebrations peak on Holy Saturday night and Easter Sunday when families gather around the table to celebrate with traditional dishes.

Lefkada - A Greek island you can easily reach by car 

In case you didn’t know, Lefkada is a Greek island you can comfortably reach by car.

In case you are looking for ideas for a family road trip, Lefkada’s traditional villages, lush green routes, and quiet beaches are ideal options. Especially during Easter, when nature is reborn, and tradition overflows, a road trip will thrill both young and adults.

Don’t forget that the commute to Lefkada is long, therefore, if you want comfort and flexibility in your routes, make sure to choose a spacious car that meets your family’s needs.

Also, keep in mind that Easter is near, and demand is steadily increasing. Book your rental car from the Athens Airport, or any other Let’s Drive station,  to hit the road with comfort and confidence.
