Temple Travel Tips for Families

Some of our favorite family memories have come from traveling to temples.

Whether it's a short day trip or a longer adventure, temple travel provides opportunities to strengthen relationships, create traditions, and make meaningful memories together.

If you're planning a temple trip with your family, here are a few tips that can help make the experience enjoyable and memorable.

Plan Ahead

Before leaving, take time to review travel routes, temple schedules, and any reservations that may be needed.

A little planning can reduce stress and help everyone focus on enjoying the experience.

Make the Journey Part of the Experience

Some of our favorite memories haven't happened at the destination.

They've happened during the drive.

Use travel time to talk, play games, share stories, and enjoy being together.

The journey can become just as meaningful as the temple visit itself.

Take Photos

Photos provide a wonderful way to preserve memories.

Consider taking family pictures outside the temple grounds and at other memorable stops during the trip.

Years later, those photos often become treasured reminders of special experiences.

Learn About the Temple

Before visiting, spend a few minutes learning about the temple's history.

Understanding its background can make the experience even more meaningful.

Record Memories

After the trip, encourage family members to write down their favorite moments.

What did they enjoy most?

What do they want to remember?

Capturing memories while they're fresh helps preserve them for years to come.

Focus on Togetherness

Every trip doesn't have to be perfect.

Travel delays, unexpected changes, and minor challenges are part of the experience.

What matters most is spending time together and creating memories that strengthen family relationships.

Some of our favorite family traditions have started with simple temple trips.

We hope your next adventure creates memories you'll treasure for years to come.

From our family to yours, Scott & Riah
