Family road trips are a staple for family vacations. They offer great opportunities to create memories, unplug with kids, and travel at a pace that fits best everyone on board. 

The key to a successful family road trip is to do choose stops that are great for little ones and fun for parents. Use the Gowhee App to find places for kids, recommended by local parents, along the way.

What road trips are really worth your time? To make it easy for you, we selected some epic road trips to take with kids, and here is the one from New York City to Montreal

Road Trip Highlights

454 Miles – Straight drive: 8:30min – Toll: Yes – Border Crossing: Yes – Campsite and RV spots: Yes


Once you leave the city and drive north, you will quickly start to be surrounded by mountains. This road trip is all about discovering small towns, eating in great farm-to-table restaurants, and of course, enjoying the great outdoors. 

Upstate New York and Vermont are filled with lakes, waterfalls, and shaded hikes. What we love most is the mild weather temps in the summer and tons of great events hosted in breweries and wineries along the way.
