There's More To Family Holidays Than Disney World

Disney World is a great place to take the family on holiday, but what if your budget can't stretch to it, or maybe you just fancy trying something a bit different this year? There's far more to family holidays than Mickey and Minnie Mouse, so here are some ideas to inspire you when arranging your family travel insurance and booking a fun break for the family this year.

Centerparcs

With over 200 activities available at Centerparcs holiday parks, there's something to keep the whole family amused. There are five parks across the UK, all set in forest surroundings with lakes, and woodland to explore. Activities range from the relaxing - spa treatments and the Subtropical Swimming Paradise - to active pursuits for the whole family such as swinging through the trees with Action Challenge, Teddy Bears' Picnic for younger guests and indoor activities such as fencing and fitness classes. There's even a falconry centre and owl encounter. Planning a family holiday with plenty of activities keeps all ages happy. And if the kids are happy, you'll be able to relax.

Activities at sea

Why not book a family cruise? You'll find that many cruise liners offer a wide range of activities aimed at families and younger children, from dance classes to cookery lessons, as well as family excursions on shore. The Greek Islands are a great choice for cruising with the kids; the combination of white sandy beaches and friendly, charming Greek towns and villages is hard to beat.

Take the helm

Renting a boat or barge either in the UK or France is a great way to explore the rivers and canals whilst teaching your children something new. You're in charge of your own itinerary, which means you can get the whole family involved in planning your days and what you want to see and do. The kids will love playing captain.

Laze on the beach

For a relaxing break, a beach holiday with Mark Warner means the kids will never be bored. Their Mediterranean Beach Clubs offer activities for ages 2 to 17, as well as free water sports. Book an all-inclusive break to a resort such as Turkey's Sea Garden Beach Resort and you won't even have to worry about spending money. Make sure you organise your cheap family travel insurance in advance, and remember that with insurefor.com, kids are covered completely free.

There are endless destinations that are a great choice for the family in 2015. Hopefully these ideas will inspire you.
