This was the first time that my family is travelling with 2 kids, a prospect that I quietly fear because I do not know what to expect. To up the ante further, the little one just turned 1 and discovered the wonders of walking. This meant full-on adult supervision is required to minimise falls and mishaps. To cope with the endless what-if scenarios, we decided on a destination not too far from home since this would also be Lenora’s first flight (She absolutely hates sitting still). Eventually, we settled on Bangkok since it is a relatively short flight and a destination that we are familiar with. Even as someone who has been to Bangkok several times, I was surprised at the amount of family-friendly activities available. That’s why the holiday itinerary of a family is always different when compared to a couple with no kids. Eventually, we packed in 8 days’ worth of fun that tired out the adults so much that it necessitated a few days of recuperation.
This blog article will only show the ups and not the downs, featuring all the family-friendly activities that we have meticulously planned for the children.
1) Safari World Bangkok
If there is 1 unique activity that you must bring your little ones to in Bangkok, it probably has to be Safari World Bangkok. It is nothing similar to what Singapore can offer and the hour drive from the city center is well worth it.
Safari World Bangkok consists of 2 parks:
a) Safari Park – This is a drive through park where free-roaming animals are not kept in enclosures. Animals living here ranges from the milder ones such as the antelopes, zebras right up to the other end of the spectrum such as some members of the Big 5- rhino, lions, buffaloes.
