TEE NS
I remember when my girls became teenagers and along with hundreds of other changes we had to rework our family holidays. Ultimately buckets and spades weren’t what they wanted to be doing anymore and what they really craved was experiencing new things and to hang out with other teens. But your kids growing up is also a huge travel opportunity. You are no longer tied to early meal times or babysitters and suddenly the world really is your oyster again. In the last few years we have been on cultural journeys, epic adventures and grown-up beach escapes that I have treasured just as much as the holidays in their early years. So enjoy the freedom and share wonderful experiences together – without a car seat or armband in sight. With my very best wishes,
ANDREW DUNN PRESIDENT & FOUNDER

We used our extensive experience of crafting family holidays and our first-hand knowledge of the destinations we sell to create holidays that they will love – and you’ll have an ace time too.
