Japan arguably has it all, boasting futuristic and iconic cities, astonishing scenery, a compelling history and one of the most unique cultures in the world. The nation masterfully combines past, present, and future, with treasured Japanese traditions being extremely evident in Japanese life to this day.

The World's Top 8 Trekking Holidays

Where? Algarve, Portugal
Age of children? 4 &amp; 1
We were apprehensive about travelling with an infant and a toddler, but we shouldn&rsquo;t have been. The Algarve is only a short three hour flight and is the same time zone as the UK &amp; Ireland &ndash; so no jet lag issues for the kids. We travelled outside of school holidays in early October and the weather was perfect &ndash; 26&deg;C all week with no rain.
Choosing to stay in a villa (<a href="../../villas/portugal/algarve/boliqueime-loule/casa-campo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Casa Campo</a>) allowed us access to a private pool, garden, kitchen and multiple bedrooms making everything simple to the extent that we rarely left! When we did, the beaches were superb and local towns very easy to wander around.
&nbsp;

Where? Southern California&nbsp;
Age of children? 8 &amp; 5
From the iconic sight of the Golden Gate Bridge to the towering granite walls and waterfalls of Yosemite, to the rugged coast of the Big Sur, and the sprawl and glitz of Los Angeles - California has it all. Each day felt like we had ventured onto a different movie set, such is the iconic nature of Southern California and all the adventure, excitement, and memories that engulf you &ndash; we had never had so much fun on a family holiday. The biggest problem it poses, is how do we beat it next time..?
&nbsp;

Where? Mexico's Riviera Maya Twin Centre
Age of children? 13 &amp; 10
The stunning coastline between Cancun and Tulum make for a great twin centre holiday that is sure to keep the whole family entertained. We started with a few days at the <a href="../../hotels/caribbean/mexico/cancun-and-riviera-maya-beaches/dreams-tulum-resort-and-spa" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dreams Tulum Resort</a> which is a great base to explore the nearby attractions. Within 30 minutes of this hotel you can enjoy the fun-filled activities at Xcaret and Xel Ha ecological theme parks, step into the past at the Mayan ruins, swim in fresh water cenotes, and snorkel with turtles directly from the beach at Playa Akumel.&nbsp;
After all that fun, a few days rest was needed at the all inclusive family favourite <a href="../../hotels/caribbean/mexico/cancun-and-riviera-maya-beaches/dreams-playa-mujeres-golf-and-spa-resort" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dreams Playa Mujeres</a> resort with its three tier pool, huge beach and ten delectable dining options to choose from!
&nbsp;

Where? Kwa Zulu Natal (KZN)
Age of children? 17 &amp; 15
We all agreed our fly drive from Johannesburg to Durban was our best family holiday with plenty to keep our lively kids busy. From the Apartheid museum and Soweto in Jo'burg to horse riding, white water rafting and battlefield tours at Spionkop and Rourke&rsquo;s Drift &ndash; we were not short of a variety of things to do. Of course, safaris with roaring lions and a host of game at the luxurious <a href="../../hotels/africa/south-africa/kwazulu-natal-game-reserves/nambiti-hills-private-game-lodge" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nambiti Hills Private Game Lodge</a> was a highlight with the beautiful scenery of the Drakensburg mountains a constant backdrop.
Beef and ostrich steaks or peri-peri chicken livers were a hit throughout while finishing the holiday by the sea in Umhlanga at the <a href="../../hotels/africa/south-africa/kwazulu-natal-and-eswatini-(formerly-swaziland)/the-oyster-box-hotel-umhlanga" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oyster Box</a> was the perfect way to reflect on an amazing holiday had by all.

TF’s Family Favourites

James Ferdinando (Marketing Executive): &ldquo;This is an experience not for the faint hearted. Tracking these endangered beasts can take several gruelling hours hiking in the thick humid air within the Impenetrable National Park forest in Uganda. But, the first whisper that a troop of gorillas has been spotted ahead will mean you&rsquo;ll forget all about the trials and sweaty tribulations. Instead, you try to focus yourself in anticipation that you&rsquo;re about to catch a glimpse of an animal so rare that only around 1,000 still exist in the wild today.
Sharing the same air as these great apes releases a number of emotions - bewilderment and amazement come to mind, but there was also a feeling of being blessed. Blessed because without the constant support of the 24/7 ranger protection, these incredible creatures may not be here today, and how long they&rsquo;ll still be roaming this tiny section of earth still remains a disheartening mystery.&rdquo;
<a href="../../tours/africa/uganda/tour-uganda-overland-gorillas-and-chimps">Uganda Overland: Gorillas &amp; Chimps</a> with G Adventures will take you to search for chimpanzees as well as trekking for mountain gorillas and studying them up close.
&nbsp;

Kathryn Hodgson (Senior Destination Manager - Canada &amp; Alaska): &ldquo;Olympic host, winter playground and welcoming wonderland, I would encourage any winter enthusiast to visit this iconic mountain resort.&nbsp;
Boarding a state-of-the-art gondola to swiftly ascend majestic Whistler or beautiful Blackcomb mountain, your anticipation builds as you whoosh over expertly groomed, tree-lined runs. The feeling of gliding onto the powder and beginning your descent cannot be beaten, the wind rushing past as you weave your way across the snow. With a sense of freedom, all thoughts are focussed on the next turn and making it your best run yet.&nbsp;
Not for the timid, the mighty Peak 2 Peak gondola crosses the cavernous ravine between the two mountains. A nervous wait for the glass-bottom gondola and a sharp intake of breath later, you are soaring out across the valley with an incredible bird&rsquo;s eye view of the forests, right below your glistening boots.&rdquo;
Our <a href="../../tours/canada-and-alaska/vancouver/tour-vancouver-to-whistler-snow-sensation">Vancouver to Whistler Snow Sensation</a> holiday combines an exhilarating week of skiing in Whistler with a city break in cosmopolitan Vancouver.
&nbsp;

Jordan Brown (Product Manager - Ocean &amp; River Cruise): "My first journey to <a href="../../cruise/destinations/antarctica" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Antarctica</a> was a life-changing experience. The raw beauty of the dramatic terrain, the close encounters with wildlife and the sheer remoteness of the continent make it a destination like no other. I found Antarctica both humbling and exhilarating, giving me a profound connection to the natural world.
Antarctica is often called the world&rsquo;s last great wilderness. With its vast, untouched landscapes, staggering ice formations and unique wildlife, this remote continent offers the ultimate travel experience. The journey to Antarctica is as much about the adventure as it is about the destination itself. Leaving from Ushuaia, Argentina, we set sail for the icy waters of the Southern Ocean. After two days of navigating across the Drake Passage and through a heavy blizzard, there was a real sense of achievement when towering icebergs and cobalt blue glaciers were approaching in the distance. The crisp air, and the landscape, with its stark white snow contrasting against the deep blue sea, felt beyond otherworldly.&nbsp;
On arrival at the first landing site, it became clear that Antarctica is not just for passive observation; it is a playground for adventure enthusiasts, with a plethora of water and land based activities to immerse yourself amongst the wildlife. You will return home with hundreds of photos (mostly of penguins!), some new friends and a new appreciation of Mother Nature."
&nbsp;

Ed Bailey (Head of Marketing): &ldquo;Simply put, Rio is as good as it looks. Whether you&rsquo;re into beaches and wildlife, history and culture or football and cocktails &ndash; it has something for everyone.&nbsp;
For me, the most lasting memory is the skyline. Whether you&rsquo;re sitting on Copacabana Beach looking up at the towering rock formations or visiting Christ the Redeemer and looking down at the stunning coastline, the views are like nowhere else in the world. While a visit to Christ the Redeemer will be on everyone&rsquo;s itinerary, a cable car ride up Sugarloaf Mountain provides perhaps the better panorama, allowing you to enjoy the statue from across the bay.&nbsp;
However, for the best view in town, you cannot beat a helicopter ride. The 7-minute flight starts by giving you a bird&rsquo;s eye view of Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. It feels like you&rsquo;re heading out to sea before you suddenly swoop back, circling Christ the Redeemer and catching a glimpse of the Maracan&atilde; stadium before returning over the Guanabara bay to the helipad on Sugarloaf.
If you&rsquo;re planning on going to Rio de Janeiro, this experience has to be on your itinerary &ndash; you won&rsquo;t regret it.&rdquo;
You can add a <a href="../../tours/south-and-central-america/brazil/tour-helicopter-over-rio-de-janeiro">helicopter trip over Rio</a> to any of our private tours in Brazil, such as our 14 day <a href="../../tours/south-and-central-america/brazil/tour-beautiful-brazil" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Beautiful Brazil</a> itinerary.
&nbsp;

Natalie Hart (Head of Voice Data Insights): &ldquo;It's not often that altitude sickness and a lack of running water, showers or toilets are associated with one of the best travel experiences you can have, but for me this is undoubtedly the case.&nbsp;
Four days of intense hiking, sleeping in a tent, climbing high into the sky and feeling a million miles away from the rest of the world, I've never experienced pure nature like it.&nbsp; The biodiversity you encounter in this one journey is amazing, with cloud forests, endless views of rugged mountains intermingled with deep valleys, pretty woodlands and interesting wildlife. Every step is brilliant.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Once you reach the Sun Gate, that iconic and fabulous view, you appreciate that it&rsquo;s not actually the best thing you&rsquo;ll take from the trek, and that the clich&eacute; of &lsquo;it&rsquo;s the journey, not the destination&rsquo; rings true.&nbsp; The whole experience from Cusco to Machu Picchu is unlike anything other, demanding and rewarding in equal measure and one I will never forget.&rdquo;
<a href="../../tours/south-and-central-america/peru/tour-absolute-peru">Absolute Peru</a> with G Adventures will give you this Inca Trail experience while also including a visit to the Amazon Rainforest and Nazca Lines.
&nbsp;

Beth Ellison (Senior Destination Manager): &ldquo;Hawaii may not instantly spring to mind for island hopping compared to other destinations such as the Seychelles, Greece and the Caribbean, however the diverse landscapes and experiences that can be found here are arguably just as incredible.&nbsp;
Begin on world-famous Oahu Island photographing Waikiki Beach, watching surfers on the North Shore and horse riding through the epic valleys of Kualoa Ranch. Next comes the moon-like Island of Hawaii with its huge starry night sky, exceptional coffee and unbelievable active volcano. Hop to Maui Island for scenic coastal highways, sparkling beach towns and delicious seafood at renowned Mama's Fish House.&nbsp;
My personal favourite, Kauai Island is the perfect way to finish. Home to Waimea Canyon and the Na Pali Coast (ideal for a breathtaking helicopter flight). With a short flight time of less than an hour between each island, it's well worth ticking off all four when you've travelled over 17 hours to reach this little slice of paradise.&rdquo;
Our <a href="../../tours/usa/hawaii/hawaii/tour-hawaiian-horizons">Hawaiian Horizons</a> multi centre itinerary will ensure you get the right amount of time on each island to fully immerse yourself.
&nbsp;

Kelly Mills (Destination Manager - Europe): &ldquo;A trip to the northernmost town in the world is an exciting adventure at any time of year. However, visiting during the four months of Polar Night, when the sun doesn&rsquo;t peak over the horizon, offers a unique break unmatched by any other.&nbsp;
Located in the heart of the Arctic with wonderful wildlife and scenery, Svalbard has always sparked curiosity. When we began offering these amazing holidays, I knew I had to go! Our Svalbard in Winter package includes a variety of exciting activities including Northern Lights by Snowcat, dog sledding and a Northern Lights evening at Camp Barentz. All activities were well organised and the guides were excellent.&nbsp;
This was such an incredible experience and I loved every moment; we&rsquo;re already looking to book again!"
<a href="../../tours/europe/svalbard/tour-svalbard-in-winter">Svalbard in Winter</a> will have you whizzing across the arctic snow in search of the northern lights and experiencing the adrenaline rush of dog sledding.
&nbsp;

Abbi Harris (Senior Destination Manager - Private Touring): &ldquo;As you wind your way through towering terracotta gorges, the anticipation builds as you near the The Treasury. Spotting your first glimpse through the narrow Siq is truly an unforgettable experience. The vast scale of Petra really surprised me, where you could spend days exploring the depths of this fascinating ancient city.&nbsp;
Another breathtaking marvel in Jordan has to be Wadi Rum. Whilst you&rsquo;ll feel as though you&rsquo;ve been transported to another planet, this awe-inspiring region is just an hour and a half drive from the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Petra, and less than an hour&rsquo;s drive from the Red Sea town of Aqaba. With its sublime red rock canyons, narrow ravines, and rolling dunes, there is no other place in the world which bears a closer resemblance to Mars.
And lastly but by no means least is the Dead Sea - the lowest point on Earth! Floating in these calm, majestic waters is like nothing I had ever experienced."
<a href="https://www.trailfinders.com/Tours/The-Middle-East/Jordan/tour-Classic-Jordan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Classic Jordan</a> allows you to discover all the highlights of Jordan at an ideal pace.&nbsp;
&nbsp;

Emilia Navato (Product Executive - Group Touring): "You simply cannot beat waking up to the sounds of birds chirping, howler monkeys bellowing, and waves crashing. Costa Rica is by far the most stunningly diverse place I have ever visited, from towering volcanoes and lush cloud forest to palm fringed beaches and wildlife rich national parks.&nbsp;
Costa Rica is a wildlife enthusiast&rsquo;s paradise. We wandered through national parks spotting sleepy sloths hanging in trees, capuchin monkeys swinging from branches above, and a beautiful array of colourful birds soaring overhead. Humpback whales, turtles, and dolphins would rear their heads for us as we coasted by, whilst sting rays would jump out the water at incredible heights, before splashing back into the ocean.&nbsp;
The distinct flora and fauna were the absolute highlight for me but the adventurous activities on offer were a very close second. We ziplined through the clouds in Monteverde, surfed in Santa Theresa, and hiked to hidden waterfalls through dense rainforest."
Our <a href="https://www.trailfinders.com/Tours/South-and-Central-America/Costa-Rica/tour-Classic-Costa-Rica-Intrepid-Travel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Classic Costa Rica</a> holiday with Intrepid Travel combines adventure, wildlife, and spectacular scenery, creating a memorable trip that encompasses the highlights of this unforgettable destination.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;

Simon Wheeler (Sales Director): &ldquo;Is the sea really as clear as the pictures? Will we see a turtle? Questions my children asked when booking our family holiday to the Maldives.&nbsp;
Sailing from our perfect white sand beach with fins, mask and snorkel in hand, we passed idyllic Robinson Crusoe islands before reaching our remote snorkelling point with no other boats in sight.&nbsp;
Jumping into this underwater world you&rsquo;re soon gliding past reef sharks and rays, whilst gazing upon illuminated corals, but after 20 minutes, no turtle. This is where local knowledge is key. A dive under the reef shelf from our tour leader and the headline acts take their stage; three adult turtles slide only a few feet past us, ignoring the muffled squeals of excitement through the children&rsquo;s snorkels.&nbsp;
Unforgettable and inspiring. The tour provided a greater understanding of the sea pollution issues affecting these creatures plus kickstarted a new hobby, with PADI courses now booked for future adventures.&rdquo;
You can book a turtle snorkelling safari locally through the hotel when staying at the <a href="../../hotels/indian-ocean/maldives/maldives/sun-siyam-iru-fushi-maldives">Sun Siyam Iru Fushi</a>.

These elusive animals are classed as cats, but actually look more like bears - hence their second name &lsquo;bearcats&rsquo;. Their body is long with relatively short legs and their fur consists of thick, black hair.&nbsp;
Binturongs can be found all over South and South East Asia. They inhabit various types of environments ranging from primary evergreen rainforest to secondary lowland forest or even grassland forest. One area in Thailand which these strange creatures can be found is within Khao Sok National Park. The G Adventures <a href="../../Tours/South-East-Asia/Thailand/Bangkok-and-Surrounds/tour-Southern-Thailand-Sojourn-Nightlife-and-National-Parks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Southern Thailand Sojourn: Nightlife &amp; National Parks</a> tour includes a stop at Khao Sok National Park and travellers can go on a private hiking adventure to discover one of the oldest rainforests in the world on foot in search of the areas diverse flora and fauna.

Found only in Madagascar, this menacing looking predator is the largest carnivorous mammal on the African island. They look somewhat like a cross between a cat, a dog and a mongoose with slender bodies, muscular limbs, semi-retractable claws and short, reddish-brown coats.
With an estimated population of about 2,500 individuals, fossas inhabit all forested areas in Madagascar, from mountainous areas down to the coastal lowlands. One area they can be seen is within Andasibe National Park which the <a href="../../Tours/Africa/Madagascar/tour-Highlights-of-Madagascar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Highlights of Madagascar</a> guided tour spends two nights in. In addition to the fossa, the park has ten types of lemur species, large chameleons and the rarely seen blue coua.

Gharials are a type of Asian crocodilian distinguished by their long, thin snouts. They were once widely distributed in the large rivers that flow in the northern part of the Indian subcontinent, however, today their major population occur in three tributaries of the Ganga River: the Chambal and the Girwa Rivers in India and the Rapti-Naryani River in Nepal.
Lined with more than a hundred teeth, these prehistoric animals can be found just 2.5 hours south of the Taj Mahal.

&nbsp;

This enigmatic ungulate with its extraordinary nose is largely confined to Kazakhstan where it is estimated to have well over 90% of the global population.&nbsp;
The saiga antelope&rsquo;s nose is undoubtedly its most distinctive feature. This bizarre, bulbous appendage is an adaptation that enables the saiga to survive the tough conditions and extreme seasonal temperature swings. Saiga&rsquo;s are typically found in very rural areas, far away from any built-up towns or cities. On the <a href="../../Tours/Central-Asia/Kazakhstan/tour-Kazakhstan-Adventure" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kazakhstan Adventure</a>, you&rsquo;ll be able to enjoy a unique exploration of Central Asia, travelling across magical Kazakhstan to mountainous Kyrgyzstan on a guided group tour. This tour won&rsquo;t provide any saiga spotting opportunities, but once you&rsquo;re in the country you can plan your own separate exploration for this peculiar animal.
&nbsp;

Besides its bizarre cartoon looking appearance, this bird is also known for its unique moaning growl that it vocalizes throughout the night, creating an unsettling atmosphere.
They range from southern Mexico through Guatemala and through most of Central America down through South America, as far as south as Brazil and Bolivia.&nbsp;
The <a href="../../Tours/South-and-Central-America/Mexico/tour-Real-Central-America" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Real Central America</a> guided group tour is a fantastic way to try and spot these unusual looking birds as this 16 day itinerary passes through thick jungle vegetation in Belize and Guatemala.

&nbsp;

Where to Find Weird & Wonderful Wildlife

Dubai and the Maldives, a classic twin centre, combines the vibrant and futuristic city of Dubai with the dazzling beaches, picture-perfect waters and technicolour house reefs of the Maldives.&nbsp;
The fun began in Dubai, where I stayed at <a href="../../hotels/middle-east/uae/dubai/anantara-the-palm-dubai-resort">Anantara The Palm</a>, a fantastic resort style hotel set on a private beach on the eastern crescent of the Palm. During my stay I explored the Downtown area, visiting the vast Dubai Mall, the world&rsquo;s tallest building, Burj Khalifa, and Aquadventure Water Park located at Atlantis the Palm.&nbsp;
Following on from this, I hopped on a four hour flight to the Maldives and stayed at two luxury resorts, <a href="../../hotels/indian-ocean/maldives/maldives/conrad-maldives-rangali-island">Conrad Maldives Rangali Island</a>, accessible by a scenic seaplane transfer from Male, and <a href="../../hotels/indian-ocean/maldives/maldives/coco-bodu-hithi">Coco Bodu Hithi</a>, reached via speedboat. At both beautiful resorts I stayed in an expansive beach villa that boasted a private pool which was only a moments away from the warm blue waters that hosted the vibrant house reef. Relaxing days at these resorts passed by reading my book around the pool, unwinding with a massage at the spa or sipping cocktails at the beach bar.
&nbsp;

Whether you&rsquo;re looking for an all-encompassing city break, a relaxing beach escape or a stopover en route to the Indian Ocean, Asia or beyond, Dubai is a playground for adventure and has something for everyone. For me, Dubai is the perfect stopover destination, as well as a holiday destination, providing a fantastic combination of activities, cuisine, impeccable service and, of course, sunshine!&nbsp;&nbsp;
An escape to the Maldives is typically very high on many traveller's bucket list and it is no surprise as to why. You will constantly be in awe of your mesmerising surroundings and the view of endless blue ocean &ndash; it really is a private island experience. Your holiday to the Maldives is what you make of it. If you want to unwind and completely switch off, this is the place for you. However, there are plenty of activities on offer at many of the resorts to keep you occupied, from glass bottom boat trips to kayaking and cocktail classes to cinema under the stars on the beach. What&rsquo;s more, resorts in the Maldives offer unique and exceptional dining experiences, from the world&rsquo;s first underwater restaurant named Ithaaa at Conrad Rangali Maldives Island, to indulging in a five course dinner under a private pergola on the beach at Coco Bodu Hithi - there truly is nowhere in the world like the Maldives!
&nbsp;

My highlight of the holiday was snorkelling at Conrad Maldives Rangali Island. The house reef was absolutely stunning and teeming with marine life including technicolour fish, rays and many nurse sharks &ndash; definitely one of the best places I have ever snorkelled!
&nbsp;

En route home from the Maldives, book a few nights in Dubai to round off your trip. Travelling through Dubai Airport and witnessing the sun shine over the skyline was difficult as I was on my way back to rainy London!
As we stayed on the eastern crescent of the Palm, it takes a while to travel anywhere in Dubai, whether that&rsquo;s the city or the desert, and can take even longer if there is traffic. Consider a stay in Downtown Dubai (e.g. <a href="../../hotels/middle-east/uae/dubai/taj-dubai">Taj Dubai</a>) so you are close to the Burj Khalifah, Museum of The Future, Dubai Frame and the traditional souks, or spend some time in the Arabian Desert (e.g. <a href="../../hotels/middle-east/uae/beyond-dubai/bab-al-shams-desert-resort-and-spa-dubai">Bab Al Sham Resort &amp; Spa</a>), where you can enjoy an array of activities such as camel riding, 4WD desert safari and archery.
