School Holidays & Family Escapes

Light, well-timed family travel designed around school calendars.

Why This Works

School Holidays & Family Escapes

School holidays create real constraints — and real opportunities. The best family trips we design are ones that account for child energy levels, travel distances, age-appropriate experiences and the reality that parents also need to enjoy the journey. We know which destinations work well with children of different ages during different holiday windows.

Best Destinations

Japan (spring and summer), Australia (summer and Easter), Maldives (all year), Italy (summer), Kenya Safari (school summer)

Best Season

Dependent on school calendar — we design around your specific holiday window.

Hotels We Recommend

Four Seasons, Rosewood, Six Senses — all with strong kids' clubs and family programming. Maldives overwater villas for younger children. Safari lodges from age 8+.

If It Were Us

Our Honest Recommendation

For Easter, we usually suggest Japan or Italy — both are manageable in two weeks with children and offer memorable experiences without excessive travel. For summer, Kenya and the Maldives together work remarkably well — safari first, then a week on the water.
