Five Family-Friendly and Charming Raleigh Activities<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Raleigh, NC is filled with unexpected opportunities for family-friendly travel. You don’t even need to reserve a hotel room; simply pack your family into an RV rental<\/a> and you’ll have everything you need to get your vacation started.<\/p>\n

There isn’t any question that Raleigh is both a modern and cosmopolitan city. Yet, it has a laid-back vibe that seeps through your veins and produces a friendly relaxation that just feels good.<\/p>\n

Raleigh doesn’t take itself too seriously<\/h2>\n

There is something refreshing about a city that is a finance center, yet, gives off pretty chill vibes. When it comes to the overall character of the city, you’ll find it abounds with southern charm. Still, it is this very charm that attracts tourists and new residents in droves.<\/p>\n

Despite being trendy and growth-oriented, you’ll find it has a similar spirit and culture to Austin, TX but with the manners pertinent to a Southern upbringing. It’s truly relaxing to take your family to a city where you won’t have to worry about overcrowding or rude people.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, one of the best aspects of Raleigh is its affordability. You can find budget-friendly hotels that are in walking distance of many family-friendly attractions. And, the food choices are similar to many popular cities, but the prices are much more family-friendly.<\/p>\n

Marbles Kids Museum<\/h2>\n

This is the perfect spot to take your kids. You’ll notice the museum promotes physical activity through play. Even the tykes will enjoy Toddler Hollow.<\/p>\n

Another feature is the first and second floors being connected with musical stairs. There are plenty of options for hands-on play. There are even art materials to bring out everyone’s creative side.<\/p>\n

Durham Central Park’s Food Truck Rodeo<\/h2>\n

If your family consists of foodies, then this would be the place to be. Durham is located within the greater Raleigh region (RDU). Here, you’ll find over 100 food trucks<\/a>. So, there is plenty of food to sample. There are also many kid-friendly food truck options.<\/p>\n

But, there’s more than just food. There are also fountains and plenty of green space. Park your RV, get out and try a few items. Another plus? Admission is free.<\/p>\n

Dead Broke Farm<\/h2>\n

Here you’ll get to see and ride horses. And, the name is unforgettable. The good news is many of the horses were rehabilitated and rescued from bad situations. Now, they have a loving home and get to share that love with visitors.<\/p>\n

Trainers are located on sight to show you how to treat the horses and how to ride them. A fun idea is an overnight camping trip, which they offer. You can also take part in a western-style riding lesson.<\/p>\n

BBQ<\/h2>\n

How can you leave Raleigh without experiencing the BBQ scene? Is there anyone in the world who doesn’t love BBQ?<\/p>\n

You will find some of the country’s best right here. One of the hottest spots is The Pit, which offers smoked and shredded pork flavored with vinegar and spices.<\/p>\n

In conclusion<\/h2>\n

Raleigh marches to the beat of its own drum. Yes, it is a world-class city. But, it is also chock-full of family-friendly activities and southern charm you\u2019ll learn to love instantly.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"pinterest\"<\/a>\"linkedin\"<\/a>\"rss\"<\/a>\"instagram\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
