Audley's destination
specialists explain why these locations are so popular for
culture-seeking families and how they can get the most from their
visit.
Why was India awarded first
place for family cultural tours?
"Whether they're tracking tigers in the national parks, sleeping
on houseboats on Keralan backwaters, riding tuk-tuks through the
heart of Jaipur, or experiencing the different street foods of Old
Delhi, children are treated like royalty in India," says Audley India specialist
Carol Lawrence. "The country's
colourful sights play on their senses, keeping them engaged in
their surroundings.
Wildlife safaris, meanwhile, leave cultural snapshots in
everyone's minds, as you pass through traditional villages en route
to Jungle Book-worthy national park settings — think
abandoned forts, chattering monkeys, and elusive big cats.
Why was Japan awarded first
place for food and drink activities?
"Japan has a distinct culinary
culture." explains Audley Japan specialist James Dennis. "From snacking on onigiri,
okonomiyaki, and ramen to joining expertly guided Tokyo street-food tours, cooking classes,
creative food preparation demonstrations, and traditional
ceremonies, food plays a major part of any trip here."
As a start-point, Audley's
specialists can arrange for one of Tokyo's leading sushi chefs to give your
family a tour of their kitchens and a private introduction to the
traditional skills of suki preparation.
Why was Kenya awarded first
place for family wildlife activities?
The sheer abundance of wildlife across Kenya's parks and reserves makes it likely
that families will spot most of the key species on their wish list.
Audley's specialists can suggest
the best places to enjoy a safari depending on what families most
want to see. Visitors could track rhinos across the acacia forests
and open grasslands of Ol Pejeta Conservancy.
Aside from safari drives, there are plenty of other
child-friendly activities, from mountain biking to horse
riding.
Why was Egypt the favourite
for historical tours?
"A recurrent favourite of the school curriculum, ancient
Egypt comes alive on an in-person
visit." Audley Egypt specialist, Anastasia
Bowes, explains. "Among my favourite experiences are taking
a private tour of Cairo's Egyptian
Museum to see the death mask of King Tutankhamun, among other
treasures, stepping inside ancient tombs, and drifting along the
Nile between Luxor and Aswan. There really is something for every
age group here."
