Reduce difficult travel days
Compare transfer lengths and hotel moves. Keep arrival plans flexible and allow breaks, meals and quieter afternoons. Choose a few activities that matter to the family rather than filling every day.
Check the room arrangement
Confirm beds, occupancy, connecting rooms if required, bathroom setup and access to meals. Ask about the actual room and pool arrangements rather than relying only on a family-friendly label.
Confirm transport and activities
Give the provider every child’s age and any seating requirements. Check age and ability restrictions for boats, safaris, cycling and other activities, and agree an alternative for anyone who will not participate.
Keep the plan adjustable
Discuss dietary needs, early meals and options for rest. Before paying, check child charges and the cancellation terms that apply if plans change.
