Family holidays are so important because they give you a chance to spend some quality time together, and they are a great learning experience for your children. Exposing them to different cultures and taking them outside of their comfort zone is great for their development and you will create some amazing memories together. However, finding the perfect place to go with the family can be tough. You need somewhere that is suitable for kids and has plenty to keep them entertained, which is why a lot of families end up going to beach resorts every year. That’s fine and they are great fun, but you might get a bit bored going to the same kind of places every year. A lot of parents go for the safe option, even if there are more interesting places that they would like to go, because they don’t think that they will be family friendly. However, that isn’t the case, and there are actually a lot of unusual places around the world that are perfect for family holidays. Next time you are planning a trip, why not consider one of these great destinations? India Most parents assume that India isn’t a suitable place for families because the big cities are very hectic and trying to keep track of the kids while you are there is tough. Young children will not have much interest in a lot of the great cultural sites in India, so families tend to avoid it. However, there are some areas of India that are perfect for families, especially families that love the outdoors. There are some amazing national parks in Madhya Pradesh, which served as the inspiration for the Jungle Book, so kids are likely to be invested in it. You can take some great tours of the park and see tigers, monkeys, deer, and a whole host of other animals. You are also close to the Taj Mahal so you can fit a bit of culture into the trip as well. Malaysia Malaysia is another country that most parents don’t consider, but it is a great place for families. It has a great mix of amazing cities, beautiful natural landscapes that are packed with wildlife, and some of the best food in the world. It’s easy to find a great terrace house in Malaysia to rent so you have your own space and you don’t need to stay in a hotel. If you head to Borneo, you can get up close and personal with the Orangutans. If you want to spend some time relaxing on the beach, head to Redang and Langkawi or you can explore the capital city of Kuala Lumpur. Malaysia is such a diverse country so whatever kind of holiday your family is looking for, you will find it there. Norway If you are a very active family and you like things like camping and hiking, Norway is a great place to go. The Lofoten Islands, in particular, have so many beautiful landscapes to explore, and quaint fishing villages to visit. You can also take boat trips up the fjords to visit the bird and seal colonies. If you are looking for an alternative to your usual beach holiday, give some of these places a try.Days out & UK travel
