Therefore, each, even the most budget tour, includes an excursion "Prague Castle and Hradcany and the Old Town." Wander along the cobblestone pavement, drink the famous Czech beer, and on a cool day, right on the Old Town Square, warm up with mulled wine to the chimes of the Old Town Hall.

Vacation is the most pleasant period of the working year, and it depends on you how to spend it in order to gain strength and positive emotions for the whole year.

I continue my-our list of where to go with a child. In our new column, I wrote about winter holidays in an article. It's spring now, and I'm thinking about warmth. So, where to go with a child in march.

I decided not to turn into a copywriter, but simply to make a real list of where we ourselves would go relax with children or travel and gain emotions. I was somehow outraged when I walked through the search engines and found articles where Egypt was recommended to parents with children in March. What Egypt in March, guys! There are terrible winds, also that "Javier", and we are advised to go there with the children. "The weather in Egypt in March brings a dry wind from the desert that hits the whole country. The wind brings sandstorms with it, which is why this month is not the best time to relax in Egypt," I found this in the intricacies of tourism. For me, this is not news, because we have already traveled through the system, and before the trip I studied the seasons for recreation. March is not the season in Egypt.

In fact, March is a rather strange month for holidays. It is not very popular, at the same time, the family set of destinations for travelers and tourists is very diverse. If you are still thinking about, then the very resorts that I mentioned in the February review will go.

Where to go with a child in March for a beach holiday

For beach holidays with a child in March fit UAE, Goa, Thailand, Bali and Gili, Hainan Island in China(I add to the list only where I myself would go with my family).

UAE in March

I asked a question to one of the travelers who recently returned from Dubai, having spent three weeks there - partly in February and March. According to Katerina, “with the advent of spring, as if by order, the weather is +30, the sun is very warm and soft, even hot. There is nothing special to see in Dubai, the Arabs rode donkeys there a couple of decades ago. you need to know where and what you can buy successfully. In the UAE, cheap gasoline - for 1 dollar - 4 liters, - a car for rent costs about 25 USD per day. The UAE is small, you can see a lot." The United Arab Emirates really took care of the infrastructure for vacationers, and with children you can fall out on the beach here. Cheap fuel and the rental price of a car just whisper to take the kids and ride around the emirates. If you are going to travel outside of Dubai, it is better to be accompanied by a strong half of humanity.

Goa in March

Thailand

O. Hainan, China

Direct regular flights Moscow - Hainan (Sanya or Haikou airport) are operated by Transaero, the flight time is about 10 hours. Hainan can also be reached via Beijing, Shanghai or Hong Kong by domestic airlines. The closest flight is from Hong Kong (about an hour), but more often fly through Beijing or Shanghai, as in these cities you can stay for a few days and see the sights.

Hainan has perfect weather for holidays with children from March to October. All the beaches in the resorts of Hainan are municipal, equipped by caring hoteliers with everything you need: sunbeds, umbrellas and showers. The beaches are sandy and gently sloping everywhere, the water is warm and clear. Most Popular Resorts Sanya, Sanyavan, Dadonghai And Yalunvan.

Bali and Gili, Indonesia

Inexperienced tourists imposed pictures with Bali with white sand beach. By and large, Bali- an ideal island for surfers, for romantics, or for those who know places where you can more or less swim. Of course, the waves may not be a hindrance to wallow on the beach (I lived for several months on the Atlantic coast, often spending time on the beach, and even tried to swim. BUT! When a wave takes you out, you look like a flattened jellyfish, forgetting that you You may not be wearing it anymore, and it’s good if the wave still endures you, and it often sucks you in.) If this does not scare you, do not be afraid to fly to Bali, especially since in March there is still a tourist lull, the rains are normal, there is no heat. If you want to go to Indonesia and swim, then a great place is

Three micro-islands 35 km from the easternmost point of Bali. Gili Trawangan is the largest, and two smaller ones - Gili Air and Gili Meno. They are, in fact, next to the island of Lombok, neighboring Bali, but you can also get to them directly from Bali. Gili is a great place for relaxation and swimming, diving, if it is important for you to be in contact with the water all the time, and you are not a surfer - you are here. Even children can swim here. I found a great blog about Bali (including Gili) - www.baliblogger.ru: a Russian girl who has been living in Bali for several years, talks about many nuances of life and recreation in Bali. I recommend.

If we consider where to go with children in March for an excursion, I am for Europe. As an example, here is one of the latest stories -. The weather for the last couple of years around the world has become unpredictable, in Europe it is quite peculiar and capricious at this time, so I would recommend getting to know Italy or Spain (for example, the colorful one is perfect for sea and study walks), and the countries "higher" and to the north leave for April-May.

March gives us new strength and a bright mood, may your March be the most inspiring. Buon viaggio!

Zarina Bobko

March, as a rule, is the quiet season in the tourist market. Demand for trips to the mountains has almost subsided, and beach tours have not yet arisen. However, the snow in the ski resorts in the first month of spring still remains. And since it is the last month for a ski holiday, the prices are encouraging - after the massive winter "rides" they are noticeably reduced. There is also a category of people who are terribly tired of the gray low-sunny February, from which they want to escape to warmer climes to recharge with cheerful mood and positive energy. There are also several interesting directions for them. We have selected recommendations for you on how to spend your vacation in March, after reading which you will see that the choice is very large and versatile.

Where to go for a weekend in March

Weekends can be spent by going on a short bus tour of Europe. The most economical in March will be tours to Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary. However, it should be understood that the weather in these countries is still not warm enough, the daytime temperature will not exceed +15 °C, and the night temperature will not exceed +5 °C. Therefore, you need to take care of the appropriate wardrobe and do not count on long walks. The warmest at this time is usually Hungary.

You can spend the weekend in Paris (France), Rome, Venice (Italy). These cities are worthy of completely devoting two days to them.

Tour operators also offer short trips to Germany, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Baltic countries, Switzerland.

March tours

The first month of spring is quite the right time for sightseeing tours to the southern countries of Europe. Fans of this type of travel will be welcome in Italy, Portugal, Spain, Greece in March. These are the most acceptable countries for walking and bus tours. Of the advantages - already warm weather along with low prices and the absence of a massive influx of tourists.

In Italy, at this time it is best to visit Turin, Bologna, Garda. In other regions, it may not be too comfortable. The average temperature typical for these Italian cities is from +10 to +15 °C. Rain during this period is infrequent, usually 4-5 days per month. In popular Milan, Florence, Rome, Naples, Palermo, the air warms up from 12 to 16 °C.

Traveling in Italy during this period, you can get to the day of the city in Venice, which is celebrated on March 25th.

Portugal is also quite warm. The average temperature in March is about 18 degrees. The best sightseeing tours at this time are Lisbon, Sintra, Madeira.

In Spain at this time there is very little rain - about three days a month. March is suitable for trips to Madrid - there the average temperature is around +17.8 °C. It is also warm in Cordoba, Zaragoza, El Arenal, Toledo.

Greece will delight you with gentle and cool sun and comfortable weather with air warmed up to 18.5 °C. Around 18°C ​​in Crete. Although it will not be possible to swim yet - the water temperature is a little more than +16 ° С.

When planning a trip, you need to take into account the fact that the March weather in southern European countries is very different depending on the region.

If we talk about other popular European bus routes, then, for example, in Czech Prague at this time, the number of sunny and cloudy days in a month is clearly divided in half, although rains are very rare - perhaps one day a month. The average temperature reaches +12.5 °C. It is unlikely that it will be comfortable for hiking. However, if you are attracted by its cafes and pubs, museums and galleries, then you can go to Prague in March.

Holland also does not please with good weather at this time, however, starting from the 20th of March, this country is open for those who want to enjoy the view of the first spring flowers blooming. The Dutch Tulip Park, the Tulip Museum, and the Keukenhof Garden open.

If you are not yet familiar with the architecture of Turkey, with its wonderful temples, have not been to Turkish bazaars that are not overcrowded with tourists, then March is the time to catch up.

Cool, but no less interesting at this time in Scandinavia. Sweden and Norway have something to offer inquisitive tourists in March, in addition to their ski resorts.
According to tourists, the best and most comfortable places to relax in March are the resorts of Egypt and the United Arab Emirates. In travel agencies, these destinations are also very popular at this time. There is an opportunity to combine sea bathing with a rich excursion program.

Festivals and holidays in March

Throughout the first month of spring, many festivities are held in Europe associated with seeing off winter. Therefore, a vacation in March abroad can be combined with research and even participation in the ancient customs of other peoples. So, you can become a spectator or participant in a chic carnival by visiting Bern (Switzerland) in late February - early March. In 2017, the Bernese Carnival will take place over three days, starting on March 2. About 50 thousand people visit it every year. They are attracted by musical performances of carnival bands, abundant rains of confetti, merry carnival processions, the final theatrical performance, and mass festivities around the city at night.

March is rich in carnivals in Switzerland. On March 6, a traditional colorful old holiday in Basel "Fasnacht" is held. It has been held annually since the 16th century for three days.
