FAMILY TRAVEL & TOURS

Southeast Asia is the perfect destination for family travel.  Kids from ages 1 to 100 will be delighted with the variety of activities and services on offer.  With five countries to explore, excellent travel connections, and affordable prices, it is no wonder that families from all over the world choose this region for their holiday.

One of the most striking aspects of a trip to Southeast Asia is the welcoming attitude to children. The smiles and indulgent reception given to pint-sized visitors is wonderful, and travelers to the region can expect to be treated better with kids, than without!  The sincere respect for the family unit inherent in many Asian cultures means that children in Asia are adored - to the extent that adults will often give up seats on public transport for youngsters - and families traveling in the region can expect a universally warm welcome.

Hotels in Southeast Asia feature a variety of amenities that are perfectly designed for family travel.  In most cities, the hotels have swimming pools - perfect for cooling off after a day of sight seeing!  Also, many hotels have nanny services so that parents can get some alone time on their holiday.  Connecting rooms, children’s cots, and cable television are other add-ons that make these hotels ideal for a kid friendly holiday!

Although the local cuisine is fantastic, families need not worry about fussy eaters.  International restaurants and grocery stores are found in most major destinations and even local restaurants often feature a handful of ‘western’ dishes on their menus.  Cooking classes are also a great hands-on family activity and make a fun and delicious way to delve in to the local culture!

A big improvement has been made in recent years in the travel infrastructure of Southeast Asia. Newly sealed roads, the increasing number of regional and domestic air connections and modern rail services translate in to a reduction of travel time between destinations.  Families can now travel around the region without hearing the dreaded ‘are we there yet?’ from their children!

Of course, the biggest draw to Southeast Asia continues to be the variety of activities available.  Whether your family’s interests are cultural, adventurous, or leisurely there is something for everyone.  As tourism has grown in to a major industry, many of these popular activities have been specially adapted to be kid friendly, keeping quality and safety in mind while ensuring optimum enjoyment!
