With children, a good holiday plan is one you can change. Start with their ages, sleep schedules and interests. An attraction that suits one family may not suit another, however highly recommended.
Choose one main activity per day
A water park, indoor activity or desert trip can anchor your day. Leave the rest for meals, travel and rest. Avoid booking an expensive activity with a rigid entry time immediately after a long day or journey.
Check the ticket before getting excited about the photo
Each venue has its own admission conditions. Ask about age, height, adult accompaniment and what the price includes. Check whether the adult ticket includes an activity or admission only, and whether infants need separate tickets. Do not assume that every attraction defines a child the same way.
Plan a day with few transfers
Try to choose an activity and meal in the same area. Leave room for a midday rest depending on weather and the children's pace. With children of different ages, find somewhere everyone can enjoy or plan in advance how to split between activities.
Pack for the activity
- For water activities: spare clothing, towels if not included, and children's essentials.
- For a long day: water, charger, booking details and a reachable contact method.
- For transfers: passenger and suitcase numbers, and advance requests for child seats.
- For kosher food: plan meals by area and verified opening hours.
