Early summer sunshine, warm beaches, adventure water sports, late skiing and lots more is what April can bring in for you. Knowing where to travel this month should be your agenda. Get your brood ready and plan the best trip ever.

Colorful Rajasthan

April will be hot but Rajasthan won’t stop being colorful. If you know you can beat that for fun and adventure in the desert then this is the place to be. Right from exquisite hotels to easy transport, all you need is a pack of excitement to get there. Step into Jaisalmer, Jodhpur, Ajmer and Jaipur and dazzle the kids with elephant rides, rickshaws, forts, food and lots more.

Relaxing Oman

This is a favorite getaway for families. Clear coastal waters, friendly resorts and enticing dunes could give way for a relaxing trip with the family. From camel trekking through the sands to camping, Muscat will give you the thrills of desert life. What more? Laze around the beaches and let the kids enjoy the sand and water. Stop at Sur to visit the nearby turtle reserve at Ras al-Jinz. As child-friendly as it can get, Oman will make it a happy Middle Eastern odyssey for all.

Exotic Sri Lanka

An absolute treat for families, Sri Lanka is the way to go this season. The teardrop island, once called Ceylon, is magical and is an ultimate stop destination for enthusiastic travelers looking for fun and adventure. Ruined cities, monuments, forts, monkeys, elephants, beaches, Sri Lanka has something for everyone. What should fascinate kids the most is the dolphin cruise or dolphin watching, that usually happens between November and April, and helping the fishermen with their catch. Discover more on a jungle safari, rock climbing or spend quiet time on the beach.

Egyptian Mummies

The pyramids are waiting to reveal their secrets to you! Cairo is a guaranteed exotic destination for the family. The noisy toddlers and the bored teenagers will be awed by the majesty of the place. You will be wowed by the Pharaoh’s treasures at the Egyptian museum. Street snacks to the pyramids, there is going to be no room for boredom. Take a delightful sunset trip to the dunes on the bumpy ships of the desert. Your kids will love it!

Mesmerizing Australia

Pack up the kids, rent a campervan and head out to experience Australian adventure. You can enjoy reading up on the poisonous species lurking behind the rocks. Set up a campfire and cook up with friends and family. The wide open roads are going to awe one and all. For a complete desert experience, drive to the Ayers Rock. Take the kids on a tour of the school of the air classroom to see how outback kids get their education. Kangaroo spotting and road tripping is just the way to absorb adventure in the Land of Oz

Serene Scotland

Scotland is more fun than one could imagine. Paddle up the deserted beaches, ferry rides amidst seals and dolphins could be intriguing for kids. Street performances, theatre, joke and tap dance is all that Scots can do to impress the young and curious travelers. April is a great time – there’s sunshine, good wildlife and huge discounts available. Popular destinations include Mull of Kintyre and Mull and Glencoe (magical cruise dotted with thousands of inlets and small islands). Witness the rare marine life and amazing birds with the coastline decorated with historic houses, communities and gardens. Food on board will spell the specialties ranging from lamb, shellfish to venison. Stay content, stay awestruck!

South Africa

You can’t be missing South Africa if you’re planning a family trip. It’s as adventurous as it can get! Beaches and safari always catch the fancy of kids. Take the wildlife and beach family safari in Kenya or maybe a horseback riding safari in Kenya or Botswana. Get your fill at wildlife by taking a safari and beach holiday at Tanzania. Zambia is also a great safari destination – walk the safari into the South Luangwa National Park and do some white water rafting near the Victoria Falls.

Cruise around this season

April is just the month to cruise around the Mediterranean by ship. Get adventurous and join the tall ship cruise on a magnificent rigged sailing boat. The season is just right for the Nile Cruise in Egypt too. Pick the right vessel, maybe the intimate Alexander the Great or the luxurious Viking Princess or Royal Viking. Yet another cruise destination this season is Portugal. Take a river cruise along the Douro Valley and discover the most serene and untouched regions. Get off in the costal city of Porto and tour the famous lodges. Transatlantic Cruise would certainly fascinate anyone.

Mediterranean

The Mediterranean is great for April travel. Uncrowded resorts, long sunny days, this is just where you’d want to spend quiet time with family. A great season for walkers; stride along the flower carpeted hillsides with family. The only drawback is that the sea can get a little chilly to swim. Rent a villa at Gozo for rural charm or Paxos for its unspoilt Greek island experience. Beautiful boutique hotels and houses are littered all the way to give you a complete experience of the weather.

April is also great to visit Greece during Easter. Visit Malta further south for an exceptional historical treat. Mallorca is an island that offers some cheap package holidays, set apart in its scenic beauty and vintage villas. On the Spanish side, there are some great value villas in Catalonia. Try North Cyprus too in April. The sunny climate and accommodation is favorable. Pia Bella, near the Kyrenia harbor is a favorite with tourists. Morocco on the southern shores also has beautiful weather.
