Traveller with kids
Family holidays are for making memories, but with multiple people to please – young and old – it’s important to plan a holiday to keep everyone happy. Here are our top spots to keep the hyperactive kids (and grownups) occupied.
Singapore
Singapore
No matter what you’re into – history, sports, food, science – Singapore has so much in store for kids and adults alike, you’ll be wishing you had more time to explore. Ogle at nature at Gardens by the Bay, go behind the silver screen at Universal Studios, or go island hopping by boat for untouched beaches.
Honolulu
United States
Those who have been to Hawaii know that it’s the perfect spot for kids and grownups alike. Not only is the sun shining nearly every day of the year, but beach-front resorts provide ample opportunities to put the kids in surf school while you can relax. Honolulu has lots going on, so get to know what the Aloha spirit is all about.
Nadi
Fiji
Fly through the forest on a zipline, snorkel with tropical fish, learn about Fijian culture at the Culture Village, or simply relax by the pool – Nadi’s got something for everyone.
Queenstown
New Zealand
Known as the Adventure Capital of the World, Queenstown is the place to be for adrenaline-seeking families. But if bungee-jumping is a bit too spicy for your liking, there’s still fun to be found, from horseback riding to boat tours.
Mallorca
Spain
When the temperatures hit plus 30°C in summer, you’re going to want to be by the water. Lucky for you, Mallorca is home to multiple hotels with their very own water parks. So relax by the pool, float down the lazy river, or launch yourself into midair off a giant waterslide.
Miami
United States
From visits to top attractions like the Seaquariam and Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science, to wandering through the Wynwood graffiti murals or spending the day on the beach, there’s plenty to keep you all entertained. After all, it’s ok if your kids don’t remember the trips, because you will!
London
United Kingdom
London can seem like a hectic city to visit for anyone, but don’t let that deter you. There’s just so much to do with little people of all ages, you’ll all be in need of a nap by the end of the day. Explore the city via its waterways by hopping on a London Duck Tour, blow off some steam in one of the many parks and playgrounds, witness the changing of the guards, and don’t forget to visit Hamleys toy store…
Dubai
UAE
This opulent city might be known as a playground for the rich, but for all its glitz and glamour, Dubai is a surprisingly fun city to visit as a family. To really make the kids (and grownups smile), spend a day at Dubai Parks and Resorts, home to three theme parks and more than 100 rides and attractions. And to experience the day-to-day life of Dubai’s locals, visit the old town with its markets, cultural tours and eateries, providing a totally different feeling from the modern malls and complexes elsewhere in the city.
Hobart
Australia
Encourage budding mountain climbers on a hike Mount Wellington, excite future botanists at the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, and ignite a love of art at the MONA gallery, where under 12s go free!
Amsterdam
Netherlands
For the ultimate Dutch experience, spend your time pedalling around with the kids in the front of a cargo bike, or rent bikes for the whole family safe in the knowledge that bike journeys far outnumber cars in the city. Cruise through Vondelpark, stop off at the NEMO Science Museum, and watch the world go by from a canal-side restaurant.
