Traveling with family members can be a challenge due to varying ages and interests. Baby boomers may be into something totally different from Millennials and Gen Z, causing a clash of the generations.
If you want to have a seamless vacation with the fam, heading to the African continent is always a good idea.
Africa has so many incredible experiences to suit everyone, no matter which generation they were born into.
Victoria Falls – Zimbabwe
Head to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe for a view so epic, you won’t believe your eyes.
Sue Garrett, general manager marketing at the Flight Centre Travel Group says, “In Victoria Falls, teenagers can enjoy adrenaline-pumping adventures such as abseiling and bungee jumping, while younger kids can spot game on a Zambezi River Cruise or go whitewater rafting.”
Garrett goes on to say, “A bucket-list experience is enjoying a helicopter flip over the Falls. For a more sedate, relaxing activity for all ages, enjoy a high tea at the grand Victoria Falls Hotel watching ‘the smoke that thunders’ from the terrace. The views are unbeatable.”
