Long-distance travel with children places 1-5

1. South Africa

Admittedly, South Africa is not really Africa! But that is exactly what makes it a popular travel destination for new parents. Even if security is still a problem in some parts of the country. There are many corners that you can travel safely and comfortably with a little common sense. Many choose a permanent location near the beach (in the Cape region) during their parental leave to make day trips from there.

Long-distance travel with small children: 20 good reasons for it (and one against)

Infants, especially those under the age of 3, are extremely exhausting.

They run at lightning speed on busy streets, throw themselves screaming at the dirty floor in public, have Stone Age table manners, are always uncomfortable at the wrong time and need an hour to walk 100 meters.

But that’s the only reason I can think of against long-distance travel with small children. Okay, a weighty one. But firstly, they do all of this at home (so what is gained by staying at home?) And secondly, for most kids these problems are limited to the time between the 1st and 3rd birthday.
