When you have kids, it can be hard to just get out of the front door.

If you're going to travel together, you might as well make it somewhere incredible.

Renowned international travel writer Robin Esrock has scoured the planet in search of bucket-list-worthy experiences, infusing his adventures with humour, quirky facts, intimate photography, and worldly insights. He's swum with piranhas and bungeed off TV towers, but nothing could prepare him for travelling across Australia with his two young kids.

His advice is simple: DON'T DO IT!

But, if you can't resist the thought of inspiring your family with the adventures of a lifetime, be sure to read these rousing, honest, and hilarious stories first. From handfeeding giant bluefin tuna to chasing quokkas, swimming in remote waterfalls to zip-lining through ancient forests, Robin explores incredible destinations your kids will never forget.

Along with practical, funny, and brutally honest advice, 75 Must-See Places to Take the Kids (before they don't want to go) is the perfect book to inspire curious parents to tackle the very best of Australia.
