Give her the scoop in this letter! Below are cute tips curated just for you.

Write A Letter To Your Best Friend About The Recent Vacation You Went On With Your Parents

Dear [name],

I am so excited to write this letter to you! I just got back from a vacation with my parents, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. We went to [place] and did a bunch of fun things there.

My favorite part was when we visited [place]. It was so beautiful—I could have stayed there forever! The water was so clear, and there were lots of fish swimming around. There were also some turtles that came up to us as we were swimming in the water!

The other place that I really liked visiting was [place]. It’s an old schoolhouse, but they’ve turned it into an art gallery now. We got to see some amazing paintings there!

Do you have any plans for summer vacation? I’m hoping my parents will take me somewhere new next year!

Best regards, [your name].

Dear [friend’s name],

I just wanted to let you know that I had a great time on my recent vacation to [destination]. It was so much fun!

We stayed at a nice hotel where the staff was very friendly, and the room we stayed in was beautiful. The view from our window was also amazing—I could see the ocean from our bed!

While we were there, we went on a lot of fun excursions and activities. On one of the days, we went scuba diving with dolphins! It was so cool! The dolphins were really friendly, and they even followed us around for a few minutes after we got out of the water so that we could pet them.

Another day, we went snorkeling and saw tons of colorful fish swimming by us as if they were flying through the air! There were also some stingrays floating around and they didn’t seem to mind us being there either. They just kept swimming along like they owned all of these waters (which they probably did).

We also visited an island where they grow pineapples. There was no one else there besides us, so it felt like our own private island! We got to pick any pineapple we wanted off the tree and eat.

Hey [name],

It’s been a long time since I’ve written you! Thanks for the note, it was nice to get a message from you.

I’m glad you were able to make it to my parent’s house for the vacation. We had a blast. They took us to [place name] and we got to see all of the sights. It was really cool!

We did all of the touristy things like going to [tourist attraction name], but there were also fun activities that we did with our family—like this game where you have to catch these weird little bugs that look like they’re made of metal and then put them in a jar and take them home. It was so much fun!

Anyway, I hope everything is going well with you right now. Let me know if there’s anything new happening in your life!

Hey [name],

It’s so good to hear from you! I can’t believe it’s been so long since we’ve talked.

I’m sorry that I missed our last few plans—it’s been a crazy time for me with school and everything. I’m still doing homework every night, but hopefully that will be over soon!

Anyway, enough about me—let’s talk about you for a second. How are things going? What have you been up to lately?

Well, since you asked, I went on vacation with my parents last week! We went to the beach and saw some dolphins swimming right by the shore (it was incredible). Then we went to this restaurant where they had this amazing seafood pasta dish that I couldn’t stop thinking about while we were there. And after dinner, we went shopping in town because my mom was looking for some souvenirs for her friends back home. It was a really fun trip—I think it’s one of my favorites so far!

Let me know what you think about all this when you get a chance! Have a great day!

Dear [Best Friend],

I hope you had a great week! It’s been really busy for me. I went on vacation with my parents and we went to [destination]. It was so much fun! We went to [sight] and [sight]. You would love it! The weather was beautiful and the people were so friendly. We stayed at a hotel that had a pool, so we spent most of our time there. I also saw some cool animals like monkeys and elephants. If you ever want to go on vacation, this is the place to go!

Sincerely, [Your Name].

Dear [name],

I hope this letter finds you well. I’m sorry it’s been so long since we’ve spoken, but I wanted to take the time to write you and tell you about my vacation.

We went to [name of place]. It was so beautiful there! The weather was perfect, and I got to experience a lot of new things. We stayed in a hotel right on the beach, and every morning we’d wake up and have breakfast at our table overlooking the ocean. It was amazing.

[Describe some of your experiences]

The whole trip was really great because my parents made it special for us. They really went all out with the planning, and they knew exactly what would make me happy—and it did! They surprised me with a trip around town where we got to see some of the sights and do some fun activities together as a family. It was so much fun! There’s nothing better than spending time with your family.

Dear [name],

I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to write you because I just got back from the vacation my parents and I went on, and it was amazing! We went to [place name], and it was so beautiful. We stayed in a hotel with a pool, and we did lots of activities every day. The first day, we went hiking and saw some deer; the second day, we went swimming at the beach; the third day, we went canoeing; and on the fourth day, we visited an aquarium. We ate out at restaurants almost every night of our trip too—it was incredible!

There were only two things that made me sad: one was that we had to come home early because Mom had an important meeting she couldn’t miss; and two was that Dad had to miss out on all the fun because he’s still recovering from his surgery last month. But we still had a great time together as a family even though he wasn’t there!

I hope life is treating you well too! Please let me know how things are going—I’d love to hear from you!

Dear [friend’s name],

I hope you’re doing well! I know it’s been a while since we last talked, but I wanted to drop you a line and tell you about the vacation my family and I went on recently. It was so much fun!

We went to [place name] for three days. It was so different from where I live, with all the hills and trees, but it was also just as beautiful. We stayed in a hotel right on the beach, and every morning we woke up and went straight outside to swim in the ocean. The water was so warm! And there were tons of fish swimming around in it too—it felt like they were going right up against your legs when you walked out into the water.

The only thing that wasn’t so great about our trip was that it started raining halfway through our second day there. But even then we still had fun: We took turns playing cards inside with my dad while my mom cooked dinner on a grill outside. And then later that night we all watched fireworks together from our balcony. It was such an amazing experience!

Hey,

How are you? I’m doing well! I just wanted to let you know that my parents and I went on vacation to Fiji a few weeks ago. It was so much fun! We stayed at this resort called the Sheraton Fiji Resort and Spa, which had a huge pool and an entire grassy area for us to play on. It was so nice!

We went snorkeling almost every day, and we got to see so many fish! We also swam with these really friendly sea turtles, but you couldn’t get too close because they’re endangered. We saw whales, too—they were so big!

We went into the town once where there was a market with lots of shops selling souvenirs. My mom bought me this necklace from one of the vendors, but when we got home it turned out to be fake gold instead of real. 🙁 The vendor didn’t speak English very well so she probably thought she was giving me real gold. Anyway, it’s fine—I’ll wear it anyway because it still looks nice even though it’s not real gold.

It was an amazing trip! Thank you for being such a good friend. Talk soon!

Hey, friend!

I hope you’re doing well. Mine’s been pretty great—I just got back from a trip with my parents to [location] and it was amazing! We went hiking, saw some incredible sights, and ate at [restaurant name]. If you’re ever in the mood for a vacation, I highly recommend it.

In other news, I’ve been thinking about our friendship lately and how much it means to me. You’ve helped me through some tough times in life and I don’t know what I’d do without you—so thank you for being such an important part of my life!

Dear [name of best friend],

I know that we’ve been friends for a long time and that you’ve seen me through some hard times, but I’m not sure you understand how much I appreciate you.

When I told my parents I wanted to go on a vacation with them, they were more than happy to take me along. They planned the whole thing and got us plane tickets and everything. We went to this really cool place called [place name], where we stayed at a hotel right on the beach.

We had so much fun exploring the town and playing in the sand! We went swimming every day and even got to go parasailing! I know you would have loved it as much as I did!

The best part was that every night after dinner, we would sit around by the fire pit and roast marshmallows together. It was so nice being able to spend time with my parents like that. We haven’t done anything like this since before [my brother] died in [year].

I’m sorry if this letter sounds sad—it’s just nice for me to be reminded of how good things can be when things are going well for all of us at once. Thank you again for being such an important part of my life.

Hi [friend’s name],

I hope you’re having a great time on vacation. It’s been so fun going through all the pictures you’ve posted and seeing what you guys are up to! I’m sure it’s been a lot of fun for you, but I can’t wait for my vacation next month.

My parents actually just booked our flight yesterday, and we’re going to visit [destination]. I’ve never been there before, but my parents have been talking about it for ages, so I’m super excited. We’re planning on doing all kinds of stuff like going to museums, seeing shows in town… I don’t know everything yet because they’re still working out the details. And this is just my mom and dad—my brother and sister are coming too!

We’ll be gone for almost two weeks, so I hope we all have a great time when we get back home!
