6 Best Double Travel Strollers of 2023: Reviewed and Ranked

Having more than one little one in tow doesn't mean you have to skimp on your travel plans. It's just the opposite—but you need one of the best double travel strollers to make it work. There are over 50 types of travel strollers on the market, but only a few offer double occupancy and do it really well.

We reviewed all the best models that fold, accordion and clamp tightly. Models with extra storage space, sun shields, clever canopies and oversized wheels earned top marks from us. And if you're expecting twins, you'll want to add one to your newborn checklist immediately.

What is a double travel stroller, anyway?

Travel strollers are smaller, lighter weight and more compact versions of everyday strollers. Double travel strollers are exactly what they sound like—travel strollers that can fit two babies or toddlers. Some fold umbrella-style, and others collapse into almost origami-like patterns that trick the eyes and offer architectural wonder.

We examined everything from assembly to how easily each model collapses, weight capacities, pricing and portability. In the end, we found a handful of brilliant travel double strollers that'll get you from the runway to the all-inclusive resort of your dreams.

Best overall

UppaBaby GLink Double Stroller

The UppaBaby GLink Double Stroller wins the top spot on our list of the best double travel strollers thanks to its lightweight design, easy folding and spacious seating for babies, toddlers and even some big kids. Available in two neutral colors with UPF 50+ sunshades, this aluminum-framed beauty is a joy to push.

Independent reclining seats, multi-paneled canopies and a carry handle helped us rank this one as the best overall. We also loved the moderate price point and quick folding. It's suitable for babies three months old through about 55 pounds, making it your one-and-done double stroller through about kindergarten.

Pros

• Excellent construction
• Individual seats
• Suitable from about three months up to 55 pounds per seat
• Moderate price point
• Easy to wash/wipe down
• Lightweight aluminum frame
• Carry handle for easy transport when folded
• UPF 50+ sun shades for each seat
• Umbrella stroller-style, but for two (making it the best of all the double umbrella strollers on the market in our opinion)

Cons

• Medium-sized wheels make it easy to push on paved areas, but a little bit of a chore on grass and rocks

Best budget

Delta Children Jeep Scout Double Stroller

You don't have to spend a fortune to get one of the best double strollers—this Delta Children Jeep Scout is the proof. At about $120 with free shipping, this umbrella-style double stroller is one of Amazon's bestselling offerings. It boasts over 1,400 ratings with a nearly perfect 4.5-star average.

We love the cushioned handles, plentiful storage space and built-in cupholders that make long days feel easy. It comes in two gender-neutral modern color offerings with extendable sun visor canopies. Five-point safety hardnesses with soft shoulder pads make the ride seem more like a top-notch convertible car seat than an affordable umbrella stroller. Plus, it meets Disney size requirements to enter the park. Woohoo!

Reviewers are obsessed over how much storage space the baskets beneath each seat offer, and how "diaper bags, toys and shopping bags" can easily be shoved below without worry. It has a narrower-than-typical format, though it still needs to be gate checked if you're bringing it to the airport. Simply put: this lightweight double stroller is worth far more than its price tag.

Pros

• Great quality for under $120 shipped
• Over 1,400 Amazon ratings with a nearly perfect 4.5-star average
• Extendable sun canopies
• Five-point safety harnesses with cushioning
• Meets most amusement park size requirements, including Disney

Cons

• Very tall parents (over 6'3") say they feel like they're hunching to push this standard-height stroller
• Lighter weight construction means it's best suited for little ones up to about three years old or 40 pounds each

Best luxury

Joovy Kooper X2 Double Stroller

If you prefer a double travel stroller with every bell and whistle and prefer only the best, the Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is perfect for you. It features a unique tri-fold design that's ideal for smaller cars, limited trunk space and non-stop adventures. Big wheels promise the smoothest ride and make this the best pick for off-roading and grassy areas.

We found this model to be easy to maneuver and fun to push. Dual snack trays with cupholders make on-the-go meals a breeze. Comfortable handles make it easy to push with one hand. Reviewers also report loving the two zippered storage pockets for personal items and can't-afford-to-lose products like their best newborn pacifiers.

Pros

• All the extra bells and whistles like premium mesh and dual snack trays
• Big wheels that give little ones a smooth ride
• Built-in cupholders for each child plus parent
• Multiple seat recline positions
• Easy one-handed pushing
• Smoothest ride of any of the double travel strollers we tested

Cons

• At about $450, it's one of the pricier models on our list, though it's well worth it for those who want added features and comfort
• Doesn't fold quite as compactly as other models

Best transitional

Baby Zen YoYo Connect

The Baby Zen YoYo has long been one of the most popular travel stroller options, and the relatively new YoYo Connect double stroller only builds on the brand's performance. It's probably the most unique type of double stroller on our list, featuring in-line design that snaps in place like a LEGO toy.

If you have a second child on the way, the YoYo Connect turns your single stroller into a double with a single click. Something important to note for YoYo enthusiasts: the Yoyo Connect can't be used as a single stroller on it's own. It must be connected with a YoYo2.

Pros

• Uses the same technology and folding patterns as the brand's original bestseller, the YoYo Connect
• One click turns the single stroller into a double (must be with the YoYo2)
• Both the YOYO2 and Connect models are small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a plane when folded.
• Five different possible setups for kids of different ages
• Compatible with either color packs or the brand's bassinets

Cons

• Large in-line format can be bulky to push, though may parents prefer it
• Must be connected with YoYo2 models, not other Baby Zen strollers

Best for tall parents

Baby Jogger City Mini GT2

The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is the rugged, do-it-all double travel stroller that will replace all your other strollers. It most certainly is not the most compact model on our list, but it's extremely durable and easy to fold. Parents swear this design is the only one they need. One-handed folding, comfortable reclining seats, cupholders and beefy wheels make it an excellent choice for all types of families.

It's not cheap, but if you're only going to keep one double stroller in your arsenal—this is the one. The higher, comfort-designed handles also make pushing this travel stroller a breeze whether you're petite or a towering 6'5" tall. A large storage basket promises plenty of space for all your essentials (and theirs).

Pros

• Extra comfortable ergonomic adjustable handle that's ideal for tall, medium and petite parents alike
• Rugged wheels for all sorts of terrain
• Comfortable reclining seats
• Easy one-handed folding
• Sleek design
• Replaces all your other double strollers
• Excellent stroller for travel

Cons

• Pricey, though you won't need any other double strollers in your collection

Best for older siblings

Joovy Caboose Sit and Stand Stroller

Have an older sibling who loves hitching a ride from time to time? The Joovy Caboose is our pick for the best double travel stroller for older siblings and buddies. The rear bench and standing platform makes this a tandem stroller that gives big kids freedom and comfort. They can sit or stand—the choice is theirs.

It comes with a universal car seat adapter for when a new baby comes along (promising you won't need a new stroller to fit an infant car seat). A three-way reclining front seat is perfect for sitting up to see the world or taking a much-needed nap. A 90-pound total weight capacity is ideal for one baby or toddler and one older sibling up to about kindergarten or first grade age. Plus, there's even an easily removed snap-on snack tray with built-in cupholders.

Pros

• Ideal for a bigger kit to sit or stand in the back
• Three-way reclining stroller seat
• Moderate pricing
• Wipe-down material is easy to clean
• Removable snap-on snack tray with cup holder
• Built-in cupholder
• Lightweight and easy to fold down

Cons

• Wont fit in an airline's overhead compartment and still needs to be checked at the gate
• 90-pound weight limit is ideal for a bigger sibling plus a baby, but won't hold two big kids

Double travel stroller considerations

• Remember that babies and toddlers grow quickly, so while it may be tempting to reach for an infant double travel stroller, you'll likely get more use out of a model designed to hold babies 6+ months old
• Spending more isn't always better—the models we chose are competitively priced and offer just as much (if not more!) than the pricier options on the market
• When choosing a side-by-side double stroller, consider the width and if it fits through doorways of standard size
• Above all, these strollers tend to take a beating in the backs of cars, airplane cargo areas and amusement parks—make sure you choose a stroller with easy-to-clean materials
