Waikiki, Hawaii
If your kids are keen to learn how to surf, it’s worth booking a family trip to Hawaii as Waikiki Beach as it boasts small, kid-friendly waves and an abundance of professional surf schools. All of which offer kid-sized equipment such as surfboards and rash vests.
When the sun goes down, it’s well worth booking a luau at Paradise Cove. A private beach where your family will be able to enjoy a canoe ride and learn how to weave a fish souvenir before sitting down to watch a cultural show, which includes traditional Hawaiian hula and Polynesian fire dancing. If you’re lucky your kids may even get pulled up onto the stage to learn how to hula.
Paris, France
Not only will your kids get a thrill out of seeing the Eiffel Tower’s nightly illumination show and getting to hand pick their own brightly colored macarons but Paris is also located within a short drive of two world-class theme parks. Disneyland Paris and Parc Asterix.
If you’re interested in exploring a theme park that is decidedly French, it’s well worth visiting Parc Asterix as it based on the classic French comic Asterix. Which follows a village of French Gauls who refuse to surrender their village to the Roman Empire. Parc Asterix boasts plenty of kid friendly and family friendly rides, which are bound to have your kids squealing with delight.
