Places to go
Destinations for curious families
Australia
From a day in Sydney to coastal holidays and easy Queensland escapes, these are places with enough movement, discovery and good food to keep the whole family interested.
Sydney with boys
Plan around the harbour, ferries, beaches and the kind of hands-on stops that turn a city break into an adventure.
Europe
Winter journeys, city walks and family food memories, including Christmas in Finnish Lapland and Danish frikadeller.
Rovaniemi at Christmas
Cold-weather layers, short daylight and the excitement of a family visit to the Arctic Circle all deserve their own careful plan.
Further afield
Family notes from Singapore, Abu Dhabi and other long-haul stops where practical preparation makes the journey easier.
