Spring half-term travel ideas

With the weather still grey and dreary, February is a great time to get away on a family holiday.

Below are just a few destinations great to visit at this time of the year.

Best family holidays in Belize

One of the main attractions of Belize for families is its size — as one of the smallest countries in Central America it is very easy to move from A to B.

Best family holidays in Costa Rica

With a low malaria risk and numerous activities such as rafting, zip-lining, canopy walkways, active volcanoes, tubing, snorkelling, whale watching, birdwatching and boat trips, Costa Rica provides a wonderful way to experience the rainforest and cloudforest.

Family holidays in Egypt

Only a five-hour flight away from the UK, different time zones won't prove too much of an issue and with a very low Malaria risk, Egypt is suitable for almost all ages.

Family trips to Jordan

A compact country with relatively short transfer times and only a five-hour flight from the UK, Jordan is an easy country to visit in a short period of time.

Family safaris in Kenya

Kenya is a great destination for first time safari goers with excellent game viewing and a huge diversity of scenery and activities which also makes it a wonderful place for families.

Family holidays in Panama

Considered an off-the-beaten-track destination, Panama is ideally suited to those families with children aged 10 and over, and who are looking to experience something a little bit more adventurous.
