About this listen

Read by Jack, Michael and Hilary Whitehall, this audiobook includes exclusive material not available in the book, plus a hilarious blooper reel at the end.

One part Lonely Planet, one part tell-all family memoir, this is the definitive and hilarious guide on how to survive your family holiday, by Jack Whitehall, with a little bit of help from Michael and Hilary Whitehall.

No one family has more experience of travelling together than the Whitehalls. Indeed they've been allowing us a window to their escapades for the past five years in the hit Netflix show Travels with My Father, and in this hilarious book, they have now decided to pool their advice for fellow travellers. To lay out the pitfalls of family holidays. The dos and don'ts, the highs and lows. In doing so, they are sharing some of their best anecdotes. Their most extreme experiences and their most valuable advice. It is part memoir of family life, part travel guide, and full-on laugh-out-loud funny.

Whatever your version of holiday preparation, the truth is always this: if it is with one's own family, no amount of sunshine, wine or holiday spirit will stop your worst character traits coming to the surface. You have just volunteered to spend a week in close proximity with the people who know you best and who will never ever let you forget a f--- up. No one survives unscathed. Things are always going to end in tears; you can only hope they're of laughter.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Laugh Out Loud Funny!

This audiobook made me laugh out loud numerous times! All three Whitehall family members are excellent and entertaining! Highly recommended!

One warning for parents: There’s adult language throughout so don’t pop it in while the kiddies are in the car (or expect to answer some embarrassing questions).

This is worth listening to repeatedly

I really loved this book. I listened to it on audible and it was just so much fun to hear them all laugh together as they are reading it. It's like a little peek into the lives of a truly loving family. I am happy for them. It makes me wish I were a Whitehall!

Laugh out loud

I buy quite a few books by comedians and most times, if not every time I'm disappointed.
This time I actually laughed out loud a few times. It's a short listen but I think that adds to it's appeal. We're not expected to listen along while some self indulgent comedian gives us his/her every thought for 15 hrs when 7(ish) does just fine.
I reccomend this as a quick and fun listen.
