Family Holidays in Thailand Just Got a Dreamy Upgrade
 Looking for the perfect island escape for families? Say hello to the soon-to-reopen OUTRIGGER Phi Phi Island Resort, a five-star haven tucked away on the powdery sands of Laem Tong Beach—just a short boat ride from Phuket or Krabi.

Set to reopen in mid to late autumn, the resort is undergoing renovation and rebranding, ready to welcome families with a fresh new look and the same warm Thai hospitality.

This barefoot-luxury resort is a family-friendly sanctuary, offering:
• Spacious suites and villas (including Family Garden Suites and Hilltop Pool Villas)
• A dedicated kids' pool and Coral Kids Club with fun daily activities
• Safe, calm beaches ideal for little swimmers
• Non-motorized water sports, nature excursions, and more.
Parents can relax with a sunset cocktail while the kids explore island life, or enjoy a family dinner under the palms at Edgewater Bar and Grill or Māla Kitchen, which features a kid-friendly menu.
If your clients are dreaming of a tropical escape where both adults and children feel at home, this is the one to watch.


Singapore: fun for all ages
Singapore is an exciting family destination for all ages, whether it’s for kids, couples of even grandparents. Constantly reinventing itself, the city is packed full of attractions, activities and dining options to satisfy even the fussiest member of the family.
 
From breakfasting with the orangutans, whizzing down a windy track on a toboggan or being mesmerised by the colourful Garden Rhapsody lightshow, there is a breath of amazing experiences to be discovered. Here are some key highlights:
 
  • Spend a day on Sentosa, the island of discovery with its golden beaches, tranquil nature walks and thrilling attractions, from the SkyHelix, Sentosa Luge, Zipwire and of course Universal Studios, which has recently opened Minion Land, a dedicated immersive zone dedicated to the Despicable Me franchise.
  • Take in the scenic views of the Singapore River on a traditional bumboat ride, where you can enjoy amazing views of iconic landmarks, including the Merlion and Marina Bay Sands.
  • Walk or hike in one of many of Singapore’s parks, gardens and nature reserves including the beautiful Singapore Botanic Gardens, a UNESCO World Heritage Site; the lush rainforest of MacRitchie Nature Reserve where you can discover local wildlife; and the majestic Supertrees at Gardens by the Bay, where there is also a dedicated Children’s Garden
  • Discover the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, a world-leading nature and wildlife destination home to five wildlife parks, including the award-winning Singapore Zoo, Night Safari, the world’s first nocturnal zoo, Bird Paradise, Asia’s largest bird park and the latest attraction, Rainforest Wild Asia.
  • Explore the island by bike as you navigate the different routes and neighbourhoods of Singapore; or for something truly unique, take a tour on the sidecar of a vintage vespa as you whizz through narrow alleyways and get up close with the sights, sounds and smells of the city.
  • Sample the best of Singapore, where everyone gets to enjoy their favourites by eating at a local hawker centre (outdoor food court). From the succulent chilli crab, to mouthwatering satays and the rich flavours of Hokkien mee and laksa, there is no better way to enjoy quality family time than over a meal or two.

Wendy Wu Tours: In It Together
Nothing broadens the mind and expands horizons like exploring the world, and doing it as a family makes the experience even better! Travelling together lets you share in the discovery of different cultures, ways of life and the incredible beauty of nature, strengthening family bonds as you embark on new and exciting adventures.  
 
At Wendy Wu Tours, we may create wonderful group tours, but we know this style of travel doesn’t suit everyone – especially families. That’s why, when it comes to our holidays, we are entirely flexible; we not only have a series of specifically crafted private tours, you can turn any of our group tours into private ones too.  
 
Our Private Tours are the perfect choice for smaller travelling parties, like families, who prefer to travel independently and are more limited by the times they can get away. Our Private Tours can depart on any day, plus the choice of hotels is wider with options that would suit any and all families, be it right in the heart of the action or in an area that’s quieter and more restful. Private tours are also a more intimate and independent travel experience with more free time, ideal for family travel. Including all a destination’s main sights, with expert guiding, they also feature authentic experiences that will help group members of all ages embrace the culture.
 
As the UK’s leading specialist in escorted travel to Asia, and over 25 years of creating tours to Asia’s most beloved destinations, you can trust Wendy Wu Tours to have an extraordinary adventure that will suit the whole family, leaving everyone with memories that will last a lifetime.
