Did you know that schools are open in the UK for 195 days each year? So, how do you entertain the kids for the other 170 days?! Trips to the park? Crafting projects? Homework and chores? Nagging them to get on with either of them?
Here at National Holidays we know how much you love making unforgettable memories with the whole family and understanding the needs for a hassle-free holiday is what we do, which is why we have scheduled the majority of our Family Fun breaks to depart during the school holidays this year! Read on to find our top five picks.
Disneyland® Paris
What could be better than the look on the kids' faces when you reveal that you’ve booked a four-day break to Disneyland® Paris? In a magical kingdom not so far away — somewhere between a place where you wish upon a star and dreams come true — classic Disney heroes and heroines live once-upon-a-time in fairytales that are, happily, never ending. Don’t forget, we include everything from return coach travel, ferry crossings, three nights accommodation with breakfast and, of course, admission to Disneyland® Paris on two days, with coach transfers (free shuttle bus also available).
Harry Potter Studio Tour & London
Speaking of ‘magical’...when it comes to our Family Fun collection, our two-day Harry Potter Studio Tour & London adventure is one of our very best sellers! Just think, wandering down Diagon Alley, seflies in front of the Knight Bus with a Butterbeer in hand and the chance to get up close with some of the most iconic sets from the films including the Great Hall, the Gryffindor Common Room and even Platform 9 and ¾! What are you waiting for? ‘Accio affordable getaway for the whole family!’
Legoland Spectacular
Do you have a master builder in the family? If your children love building with LEGO® then LEGOLAND® Windsor is the place to take them with National Holidays. Our two day break includes entrance on both days, along with return coach travel, an overnight stay at a selected 3-star hotel with breakfast and transfers. It really is an ideal destination for families, with over 55 interactive rides, live shows and attractions all set over 150 acres of beautiful parkland.
Cadbury World & Safari Adventure
If there is one thing the little ones are sure to love; it’s chocolate! Join us to explore this popular family attraction and discover the history, the making and the magic behind one of Britain’s best-loved brands; Cadbury World. And that’s not all! We also visit the award-winning West Midland Safari Park, where there is something for absolutely everyone and we even include a safari tour by coach too! This is a wonderful two-day family adventure.
Alton Towers Spectacular
Since opening its gates in 1980, Alton Towers has been a firm favourite when it comes to family days out! And guess what? We include admission on BOTH days during this two-day break, and that even comes with entrance to CBeebies Land as well - perfect for the younger members of the family. Whatsmore, did you know that they’re opening a spooky new ride this year?! ‘The Curse at Alton Manor’ is the official name of the new attraction and is set to be the resort’s most immersive dark ride to date. Don’t miss out!
