Filled with unspoilt the way until you arrive back home. beaches, dense forests, picturesque mountains and cosmopolitan cities, there are a plethora of experiences to be enjoyed. Bruce Ryde Tracey Spicer, renowned Australian Journalist, Writer and Family Travel Director Brand Management Expert said, “The Sunshine Coast is my ideal backyard vacation spot. I have InterContinental Hotels & Resorts lovely memories of that place as a child. Now we love taking Taj (age 9) and and Hotel Indigo Grace (age 7) there for the beautiful beaches, stunning hinterland, five-star IHG Asia, Middle East & Africa dining and tremendous attractions. Family favourites include The Ginger Factory, Underwater World, Australia Zoo, Aussie World, the Spirit House and Noosa, a town near Sydney famous for its colourful bays.” 2 3 THE EXCITING EMIRATES The United Arab Emirates’ seven different emirates all have something different to offer. Neighbours Dubai and Abu Dhabi are just an hour’s drive apart, but differ greatly in their offerings. From the tallest building in the world to the man- made islands of the Palm Jumeirah, Dubai has plenty to offer the whole family. Abu Dhabi, on the other hand, is home to the magnificent Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and Ferrari World Abu Dhabi Theme Park, as well as exciting activities such as kayaking through the mangroves or cycling along the city’s picturesque corniche. “In Abu Dhabi, the city’s Corniche is an ideal spot for families to enjoy the great outdoors, with its 8km of manicured waterfront that includes children’s play areas, pedestrian and bicycle pathways and sociable cafes. Dubai is unrivalled for its shopping and iconic architectures including Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building. Meanwhile, weekend getaways to the emirate of Fujairah offer some of the UAE’s best snorkeling and dive spots. Close to the city of Abu Dhabi is Al Ain, known as Garden City, with the impressive Hajjar mountain range that you can drive up to view the green vista made up of palm plantations. A visit to the incredible Al Ain Zoo to see the Middle East’s indigenous species is also a must,” says Nader El Kari, Chief Concierge, InterContinental Abu Dhabi. INSIDER TIP: Ask your children! Include them in the decision making process over a meal and get everyone excited about the destination together. This provides the whole family with a sense of ownership and encourages a shared vacation agenda that both adults and children can look forward to. 4 5 WHEN TO GO?
