Traveling
around the world is an excellent way to spend some quality time with your
family. Exploring, enjoying and developing a bond with different cultures can
be a life changing experience for your little ones and yourself as well. There
are many benefits to traveling like that as a family – you will raise the
awareness and respect for other cultures in your children and you will enjoy
environments and people that nothing else short of travel can achieve. In time
this wanderlust will let your kids see the world in a different light,
inspiring and beautiful in its complexity and chaotic cultural differences.
Here we have made our small list of destinations great for family vacations:

Morocco
As if taken
out of Arabian Nights, this country in North Africa stands at an important
crossroads between two continents. It has seen a great many cultures clash and
intermix in the centuries since it has been founded. You can visit the local
souks where you'll be able to soak in the local atmosphere, moods, textures and
then simply relax in a local hotel safe and away from the heat an the desert
winds. Marrakesh is a place where you'll be able to enjoy the impressive
architecture of the Bahia Palace and among the local entertainers you'll find
snake charmers, acrobats, musicians and dancers. There is a mixture between
Bedouin and Arabic influences here and one thing you should always keep in mind
is that traditional hospitality can be a bit overwhelming at times.
3.
African Safaris
This is
something a true traveler should experience at least once in a lifetime. There
are tour operators which organize great safaris in the wild and those will give
you and your family a chance to experience the best of what Africa has to offer
when it comes to wildlife and the vast and amazing world out there. Depending
on where you go and how things are organized this can either be done by vehicle
in the span of days on end or simply living in an established lodge within an
area where certain animals live. Nothing beats the experience of seeing so many
of these wonderful animals in the wild away from cages and crowds of people.
4.
Australia
A land of
ancient people with a wonderful, unique culture and one of the most unique
wildlife in the world this is a place where one can enjoy the vast plains and
the bush, beaches, parks, zoos and so much more that simply can't be put into
words. The mixture between the local tribal influences and the Western settlers
has created a truly unique country like no other in the world. Exploring each part
of Australia will give you a different feel because of the sometimes subtle
shifts in local cultures.
5.
London
With its old
castles, traditions and wonderful mixture of many cultures both European and
Asian London can be a prime destination for anyone willing to explore Britain.
There's a lot more to the island nations there than just that since there is
much history hidden here. Museums, markets and pretty much anything your heart
desires can be found in London.
