Walking holidays are great for kids who enjoy being outdoors. Destinations such as Scotland, Ireland and Italy are popular among walkers and offer routes to suit all abilities. Get your children enthusiastic about the trip by learning more about the cultural heritage of the areas and the wildlife you might encounter, or by looking at pictures of the scenery. Ensure your children have appropriate walking shoes, if new, that they are "broken in" prior to the trip.
For children who love animals, what better than a trip to Africa to see their favorite animals in the wild. There are many different types of safaris available, not all of which are suitable for children under the age of 12, and some lodges and camps have an even lower age limit. Do research before deciding which type suits your family best --- Jeep safari, bush walk, canoe trip, elephant trek, tented camping or luxury lodge. When packing, include appropriate clothing and sun block.
