The family morphology is changing: marriages are decreasing, divorce rates have risen, and same-sex families are growing globally (Eurostat, 2021; ILGA, 2021). Despite this, families remain central, with 28.8% of EU-27 families having dependent children in 2019 (Eurostat, 2021). While family tourism benefits are recognized (Lehto et al., 2012; Lima et al., 2021), studies on behavioral differences and effects across family morphologies remain scarce (Lima & Eusébio, 2023). This work stems from an ongoing project aimed at reflecting on these changes and their impact on tourism.
