When will you book your 2011 holiday?

Date: 2010.09.01 | Category: holidays, Latest News | Response: 0

As the summer holidays draw to a close our thoughts here at Find Family Holidays turn instantly to where will we go next year.  Should we go to the same place or strike out for somewhere new, should we book in advance or wait for last minute bargains… if we wait, will we miss out on the places we really want to go! And, the big one… will we do the research and book or will we do the research and then do nothing until next year.

So are we just family holiday mad or do you go through these dilemmas?  Check out our poll on the right and tell us when you intend to book your next summer holidays.

Family fun Harness and Aqua Sphereing – special offer

Date: 2010.09.01 | Category: Latest News, Special offers - time limited | Response: 0

It’s the last days of the summer holidays and you are probably running out of things to keep the kids entertained, so how about Harness and Acqua Sphereing!  And, with this Special Offer, Weekday Sphereing for Two that USUALLY costs £65 is just £49.00. Find out more about this offer>

It’s guaranteed to be a dizzying experience this Sphereing malarky! If you choose ‘traditional’ sphereing you and your chosen sphereing partner are strapped inside the big plastic ball with a harness. You both then get rolled down a purpose-built course – don’t be surprised if you reach speeds of up to 30mph!

There’s no need to choose the venue you would like to buy (and we have venues throughout the UK), but you do need to decide on the activity. Harness sphereing is available for two people inside the same sphere for one roll.

Experience summary: Each roll lasts around 30 seconds and takes place on a specially tracked out sphereing course. Remember you must have two people for harness sphereing. More zany Zorbing experiences are available.
