My daughter went to cape verdi and loved it, Egypt have only been to Cairo on a trip from Cyprus and wouldnt go again, but i know people rave about hurgada resorts if all you want to do is swim or lounge

I love Cape Verde, however there's not a great deal to do and when we went most days were red flag days so you couldn't go in the sea. I'd still go back, though.

It depends on what you want to do.

I've gone to Egypt from October onwards and the weather is pleasant. You can still do camel rides etc. I love snorkeling, the coral reefs are amazing.

From what I've heard Cape Verde is beautiful.

Again, there's snorkeling, diving and the Souks.

We've been to Hurgada.. El Gouna to be exact. And it was great. Agree with others about the snorkelling.. amazing. I think there will be more to do for the kids in Egypt

Thailand? We went in January. amazing. Long flights tho with little ones.

hellenbackagen · 27/02/2019 20:49

Have you thought of Mexico?

Oman is amazing!

I didn’t like Egypt but then I had a bad experience there! (Well multiple) without kids though.
