FAMILY ADVENTURES

A selection of our guided and self-guided holidays

Here at KE, we’ve been creating unforgettable adventures since 1984.

Creating memories with your family is one of life’s greatest joys and this guide is a taster of our worldwide active family adventures. Our journey began in the 1980s, when we ran our first holiday to the Karakoram Mountains in Pakistan. Since then, our passion for family travel has grown.

Our family holidays are transformative journeys that go beyond the conventional family travel experience. Whether that is meeting the hill tribes in northern Vietnam, going in search of the Big 5 in Botswana or kayaking above the sunken ruins of Kekova in Turkey, we will have an adventure to match your family’s sense of wonder and exploration.
