Travelling with kids can sometimes be a challenge. Between the long and boring car drive and the lack of activities or facilities, holidays can easily turn into a nightmare. This is however not the case of the South of France so get ready to plan your next family holidays in the South of France!
Visit Marseilles, an historical city with a beautiful old port and beach. Marseilles is known for the traditional Pastis, an aniseed flavoured alcoholic beverage mixed with water and ice cubes. Keep your little ones happy and play pétanque, a traditional French ball game for kids and adults. The nearby Calanques, rock cliffs formations, are perfect for a gentle hike with the whole family.
Carcassonne is probably one of the best maintained French medieval cities and will transport you to another time. Visit the fortified hill town and its numerous watchtowers, secret tunnels and fortifications. The city is a fun way to learn all about Medieval times while having tons of fun. After discovering the citadel try the local hearty speciality, cassoulet, a slow cooked casserole of meat and white beans.
For active holidays take a cycling tour of the Canal du Midi or visit one of the water parks in the region. Take your family for a safari at the Réserve Africaine de Sigean, an African animal safari nearby Carcassonne for a close encounter with the African wildlife.
