Why David Cameron would love Families Worldwide
A few days ago the Government decided to look at increasing the levels of exercise in schools having concluded that large swathes of the population are severely under exercised!
Families Worldwide is the perfect choice for parents who want to keep the kids active on holiday and the Whitsun half term is the next opportunity to get away for an unforgettable break. David Cameron would definitely approve!
Families Worldwide offer affordable trips close to home - like kayaking the coast and islands of Croatia or exploring the Pyrenees - or more exotic experiences like walking among Berber villages in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, the Andes in Peru or the jungles of Thailand. Here are just a few ideas for the forthcoming school holidays.
Whitsun Adventure in Sicily – one week from £1249 per adult
Highlights of the eight day Discover Sicily holiday include walking through canyons and gorges, exploring castles and ancient theatres from Greek and Roman times, spending a day on a farm – helping to feed the animals and sow crops – making a clay pot and discovering the grottos and craters on Mount Etna. The holiday departs on 25 May and costs from £1229 per child (7+) £1249 per adult which includes flights, all land transportation, 7-nights’ B&B in a farmhouse, activities and the services of a tour leader.
Whitsun Adventure in Turkey – 8 days from £1039 per adult
The 8-day Active Turkey family adventure is based at the pretty Adrasan Bay, away from the usual mass tourism resorts. The packed itinerary includes sea kayaking, roasting marshmallows over the eternal Chimera Flames, walking through waterfalls, the ruins at Olympos, a boat ride to a sunken city, swimming, snorkelling and paragliding (optional). The holiday departs on 23 May and costs from £1019 per child, (6+) and £1039 per adult, which includes flights, 7-nights’ B&B, all transportation, activities as detailed in the itinerary and the services of a tour leader.
Whitsun Adventure in Morocco – 10 days from £899 per adult
The 10-day Atlas Mule Train trip to Morocco is suitable for those with children as young as two and highlights will include watching snake charmers in the main square of Marrakech, discovering Berber villages in the Atlas Mountains, and riding on the back of a mule whilst mum and dad take a hike! The trip ends with a few days at the coastal port of Essaouira, exploring the ancient souks packed with craftsmen (tip, much cheaper than Marrakech) or just having fun on the beach. The trip costs from £879 per child, £899 per adult which includes flights, all transportation, 9 nights’ accommodation, most meals and the services of a tour leader.
Whitsun Adventure in Jordan; 8 days from £1149 per adult
Highlights of the 8-day Crusaders & Camels trip include Jerash, Amman, a camel trek, tour of Petra, a drive to the Dead Sea (the lowest point on earth) and a visit to a Crusader castle at Kerak. Best of all is a 4WD through the desert to Wadi Rum – in the footsteps of Lawrence of Arabia – to sleep under the stars in a Bedouin-style camp. The holiday departs on 25 May and costs from £1149 per child (age guide 5+), £1199 per adult which includes flights, all transportation, 7 nights’ accommodation, some meals and the services of a group leader.
All holidays are available with ‘land only’ prices for those who prefer to book their own flights.
