You'll need a stroller with a large capacity basket to fit all the clothes and other essentials. It should have locking swivel casters with lockable swivels that can be able to handle rough and smooth terrain.

One of the lightest holiday pushchairs we've tried is the Babyzen Yoyo2. It has a slim curved frame and high-quality mono-colored fabric. It comes with a thick and hooded hood to protect your child from the sun, as well as the cup holder to hold drinks. It can also be folded with just one hand. It comes in black, red or toffee. It is also available in grey, and is extremely affordable.

The Joie Tourist is another great lightweight pushchair that is ideal for trips. This stylish stroller is available in a gorgeous shade of gray. It's also extremely lightweight, weighing just 6kg. It folds into a size that is comparable to that of a suitcase. It's perfect for parents who need a pushchair that is easy to transport. It can also be used as a pram, with its seat that reclines!

If you're planning to travel with a twin baby, consider a lightweight double stroller such as the Mountain Buggy Nano duo. It's the lightest and most compact double pushchair that is available, and it's also very affordable. It's easy to fold and unfold and has a large storage basket. It also comes with a large hood and locking swivel wheels that are able to handle rougher terrain.

A good lightweight pushchair will also have an easy folding mechanism and should be easy to carry on your shoulders. This makes it easier to transport your baby in taxis buses, trains and up and down escalators or stairs. The Joie Tourist is an excellent option because it folds into one hand and then tucked into the overhead locker of a plane. It comes with a large hood that protects your child from direct sunlight and an adjustable, comfortable handlebar.

If you're traveling for a holiday or you're looking for an easy-to-use buggy that can be used around home and when visiting friends, a light travel pushchair ticks the box. There are a variety to pick from, including some that offer a full assortment of accessories like baby bassinets, a rain cover and an infant leg rest to ensure they don't have their legs hanging. They can feel a bit fragile because they have a shorter frame and a less complicated suspension than full-sized buggies. However our MFM testers found that all were able to handle.

A compact pushchair that is easy to move will come with a large storage basket to allow you to carry all your essentials with you. It should be able of standing on its own when folded so that it can be easily carried through airports and in the trunk of a car without taking up luggage space. It's a big plus for those who travel on their own to be able to fold and unfold the stroller using just one hand. You'll want a stroller you can use to get on and off escalators as well as to climb and descend stairs.

The MFM reviews found that the Graco Eezefold stroller was easy to navigate and, even fully loaded, it was solid enough to stand up to cobblestones and roads that are uneven. It is also easy to use on public transport and fits into the end racks of train cars (with the seat still attached). It is suitable for babies as young as and comes in a selection of colors and a variety of accessories including a baby bassinet, raincover and footmuff. Also available as a twin travel bundle.

The Britax Holiday is extremely lightweight and compact It's perfect for travel as a compact pushchair up to 25kg because it folds down to a compact size that can be tucked away in overhead storage or even in the car boot. It's also cabin friendly for easy air travel and you can carry it over your shoulder using an integrated strap. It's a bit difficult to use at first, but once you've got the hang of it it's an ideal stroller for short trips.

It has a roomy shopping basket, a spacious hood to protect against rain and a stylish cup holder that's a great option for a travel-sized cup.

We love the fact that this is so easy to open and close, regardless of whether you're in a rush or if your hands are full with kids. It's also a smooth pushchair to drive and the recline function is easy for toddlers to use. It doesn't provide the extra support that a carrycot or bassinet can provide for infants and is not suitable for use as an infant travel buggy.

Easy to store

When travelling with baby you're often going in and out of trains, taxis and tubes, and up and down escalators or stairs so it's important to pick a lightweight pushchair that you can easily manoeuvre and store. Find one that folds to the size of a small space and can stand up when opened, or pops into an easy flat fold so that it occupies less space in your accommodation. A freestanding storage basket can be useful if you have to store your pushchair away when it's not in use.

If you are looking for a travel pram that is suitable from birth the EeZeFold stroller by Graco is a great choice. It has a smart compact fold, hood, and rain cover that protects your child from the sun. It's also compatible with car seats, meaning you can use it from infant to toddler. There are a variety of accessories like a bassinet, or a wheeled board for tired toddlers.

During testing it was super easy to steer and stomp through cobbles and bumpy roads as well as some big kerbs. It didn't feel heavy at all, which is an achievement for a buggy that is this small and light. The only downside is that the seat doesn't recline. However, as it's designed to move in a straight line, this isn't a huge issue. The handle bar was fixed at a very high height and wasn't very adjustable. However it was comfortable for tall and short adults during our tests.
