Much as we love independent holidays and exploring off the beaten track, there are times we want someone else to do it all for us. Package holidays have been around for decades and while some might view them as a cheerful alternative to ‘real travel’, there really is no one size fits all. We’ve been on a jungle trek to Angel Falls, canoed down the Churún River and walked behind the waterfall in Last of the Mohicans in the past. Hardly a trip you’d categorise as a package holiday. But having flights, transfers, accommodation and meals organised is convenient, especially for time-poor parents. Mark Warner is well known for its activity holidays which are great for families especially as you can do as much (or as little) as you like. For our family, it’s all about grabbing the bull by the horns and doing things we might not normally do, creating very special moments along the way.
