Family Holidays and Tours to Asia

Family Holidays with TransIndus

Travelling with youngsters in Asia can yield some of the most positive and memorable moments of family life. But it can also be challenging, particularly if it’s your first long-haul trip with children in tow. Little details, such as choosing the right flight, selecting the best accommodation for your family, and minimising transfer times, can make all the difference. Ensuring you’ll have suitable activities planned is also key.

In our experience, building trips around wildlife spotting can be a good strategy. Tiger drives in India, Orangutan safaris in Borneo, and canopy walks in the rainforests of Malaysia all get rave reviews from younger clients, along with visits to elephant camps, where families may help wash and feed rescued elephants and take short rides in the forest.

For older children, hiking, biking, and canoeing trips are great ways to explore off-track areas, such as the wildlife reserves of Sarawak or the rural hinterlands around the Mekong Delta. Kids, of course, also love the elemental pleasures of staying close to remote beaches. Some of our favourites are in Thailand and Indonesia, where they can snorkel in transparent water, swim in shoals of multi-coloured fish, and collect exotic shells.

Most of our resorts also offer professional childcare facilities, so you and your loved one can enjoy some well-earned downtime while you’re away. Our consultants can also suggest many places where you and your children can interact with local families, sharing lives very different from your own.
