Family activities
We appreciate that holidays are about spending quality time together as a family, but with so much going on, it can be difficult to please everyone. That’s why with FamilyExtra, the whole family can join in. Our couriers also organise regular family events, giving you the opportunity to share new experiences, make new friends, learn new skills but most importantly of all, have fun.
Fun-filled family activities
We offer a variety of family sessions, from cheese and wine evenings to tug of war competitions. Take part in a family Aeroball competition, go for gold at the Canvas family Olympics, or learn to juggle with Circus Skills. We know that you will have great fun, and create holiday memories that will last forever. Don't forget that all FamilyExtra activities are FREE for Canvas Holidays customers.
