We set out on our four-day Lares Valley trek after some fine acclimatisation walks. This delightful quiet trek is particularly suitable for families as vehicle support is available at several points en-route if necessary. Along the way we will meet hardy Quechua peoples, tending llamas as they have for centuries amidst beautiful Andean mountain scenery.

Haggle in the souks of Marrakesh? Join a Berber family tending their livestock? Ride a camel alongside the oceanFrom the Arabian Nights' atmosphere of ancient Marrakesh, to the isolated villages of the Berbers, Morocco offers amazing experiences at every turn. After a day exploring the narrow alleyways, souks and sights of Marrakesh we make the short drive into the mountains, for two nights in the peaceful Bougamez valley. Here we'll take a short walk, spend an afternoon with a local family and discover why the Berbers refer to Bougamez as 'Happy Valley'. Travelling west we reach the Atlantic coast and the historic fortified port of Essaouira. There's time here for a camel ride through the sands and to watch the daily catch come ashore. Or simply relax on the beach before a final night in Marrakesh amongst the snake charmers, musicians and acrobats of the Djemma el Fna.Family Adventure Morocco A varied and exciting adventure holiday in the land of the Berbers.Guaranteed to run for a minimum of 5 clientsLand OnlyFlight IncludedSat 19 Feb - Sat 26 Feb 11Sat 22 Oct - Sat 29 Oct 11Day Walks: 3 Minimum Age: 5 yearsLocal LeaderAccommodation (nts): Hotels: 2Riads/Kasbahs: 5Optional: Single Room £145Insurance: Family policy availableGrade: Gentle For detailed itineraries see www.mountainkingdoms.comCCAAFamily Holidays We ran our first ever Family Trek over Christmas 1999, when 8 children and 10 parents enjoyed an exciting adventure in Nepal.

Visit the Monkey Temple ? Ride an elephant on safari ? Go rafting on a Himalayan river We'll explore the temples and bazaars of Kathmandu, trek beneath the giant mountains of the Annapurna range, enjoy a rafting expedition and 'go wild' on safari from a jungle lodge. Our 'Gentle' trek in the Annapurna foothills is an amazing experience. Here we travel with a friendly crew of Sherpa porters, who are happy to carry weary youngsters in their specially adapted cane baskets. Each afternoon at your camp you may be visited by curious local children and, before you know it, the sound of games and laughter will fill the air. ? Stay in an Indian home ? Meet a mysterious oracle ? Take a ride in a tuk-tuk Our experience of 'Incredible India' begins in Delhi, where we explore back streets, bazaars, forts, mosques, and grand colonial buildings. We then fly across the plains and right over the Himalaya to Ladakh. The capital, Leh, is dominated by a huge palace, and immediately it is obvious you are in a land more akin to Tibet than India. There is a colourful Buddhist festival to enjoy, massive ancient monasteries to poke around, some river rafting, and a great four-day trek through a series of pretty villages. An oracle may even foretell your future! ? Climb to the Tiger's Nest ? Join in a colourful festival ? Fly over the world's highest mountains Our association with this special Himalayan country stretches back to 1986, and we aim to give everyone who visits with us a real insider's view of the kingdom. We will visit many important temples, fortresses, villages and markets, both whilst sightseeing and on our gentle four-day trek. We'll camp whilst on trek but stay in the best hotels during our time in Paro and Thimphu. A real highlight of our holiday will be the time spent at a spectacular Bhutanese festival, featuring lively music, meddlesome clowns and amazing masked dancers.
