Travelling with children is no reason to give up on ambitious routes! On the contrary, it is during childhood that the most vivid memories are formed. Today’s children especially need not only entertainment — which they already have in abundance online — but also real discoveries, live interaction with nature, and encounters with other cultures and technologies. The task of adults is to find a balance between comfort and true adventure.
The world now offers endless possibilities: you can feed friendly giraffes, sip tea overlooking the jungle, hunt for trolls in Icelandic lava caves, or explore ancient cities. The key is to choose routes that take the interests of the whole family into account. No exhausting transfers, but suitable infrastructure, and a rich yet manageable programme.
We’ve put together 5 inspiring destinations for summer holidays that combine comfort, safety, and unforgettable emotions. It’s more than just a holiday — it’s a chance to give your children their first real discoveries and a little bit of magic.
Safari
Kenya and South Africa
A journey to South Africa will be a real adventure for children: accompanied by experienced rangers, they’ll see lions, elephants, and giraffes in their natural habitat. It’s not only an emotional experience, but also a unique opportunity to broaden their horizons, learn respect for animals, and understand the importance of protecting wild ecosystems. And there’s fun for the parents too — explore Cape Town, enjoy wine tastings in Stellenbosch, and dine at the Cape’s farmers markets.
All of this is part of our “Cape Town and Safari” journey: city walks, a cable car ride up the iconic Table Mountain, a helicopter flight, a beach with penguins, the Cape of Good Hope, scenic wine estates and tastings, and finally, a safari in Kruger National Park!
Another popular safari destination is Kenya! Here, children will discover even more: a safari in the legendary Maasai Mara National Reserve, encounters with local tribes, and, to finish, the warm Indian Ocean and golden beaches. Our journey “Family safari in Kenya” will especially delight the children as they’ll find themselves in the world of their favourite animated films. In the morning, they’ll enjoy breakfast with the shy and gentle giraffe, Melman. By midday, they’ll be counting stripes on the quirky zebra, Marty, and by evening, they’ll be looking for the brave lion, Alex, from Madagascar. These journeys foster curiosity, tolerance, and a love for the world around us. Choose your safari route and explore the wild!
Iceland
Iceland is like a land from a fairy tale: geysers, waterfalls, legends of trolls, black beaches, ice caves, and even real volcanoes!
You can chase the Northern Lights, search for trolls in lava fields, bathe in geothermal springs and explore glaciers. For children — specially adapted routes with interactive tasks and games; for parents — landscapes that take your breath away.
In our “Iceland’s Golden Circle” trip, taking place from 20–30 August (and you can still join!), we’ll feel like heroes of ancient sagas, follow in the footsteps of Vikings, bring myths of trolls and monsters to life, and immerse ourselves in the magic of this incredible island.
Rwanda
A journey to see mountain gorillas can become a highlight of your child’s life! Accompanied by experienced guides, you’ll head to a national park to see these gentle giants up close. In our “Migration in Serengeti and gorillas of Rwanda” trip, we’ll experience the wild beauty of Serengeti, feel the pulse of the earth beneath our feet as millions of hooves kick up the dust of the Great Migration, and stand at the foot of ancient volcanoes rising proudly above Rwanda’s green hills.
But Rwanda isn’t just about wildlife. You can visit eco-villages, learn traditional basket weaving, explore coffee and cocoa plantations. We tailor programmes to children’s ages, including cooking classes, gentle hikes and engaging activities.
Machu Picchu, Peru
Machu Picchu is a true expedition. Don’t be put off by the word “trek” — there are child-friendly routes, with comfortable overnight stays, guides, and even express trains.
Children will be fascinated by the mysterious ruins and tales of the ancient Incas! Did you know that before working on the animated film The Emperor’s New Groove, Disney animators travelled to Peru? They visited several ancient cities, including the iconic Machu Picchu. Have you noticed how the emperor’s village in the film resembles the "Lost City of the Incas"?
Add to that colourful poncho shopping, joining traditional Peruvian festivals and meeting alpacas. And for parents — exquisite Peruvian cuisine and stylish eco-lodges in the mountains. Sounds like a dream plan, doesn’t it?
Japan
Japan is a paradise for curious kids! You can spend the day at Super Nintendo World, meet robots, or catch the Pokémon parade in central Tokyo!
The perfect family journey across Japan is one where you hop on a bullet train in the morning, gaze at the golden glow of Kinkaku-ji by noon, and scream with joy on rollercoasters by evening. Where ancient temples and digital universes coexist, where samurai armour stands beside androids, and the deer of Nara bow for biscuits. All of this awaits in our “Family Holidays in Japan” tour! Ten days of pure joy in the great island nation with Scenario Travel.
We create tailored family journeys, where each day brings emotions, discoveries and delight. No boredom. No compromises. Just pure joy — for the whole family.
