Himachal: The hills beckon!: Take Himachal Pradesh tour packages for instance. The state is full of beautiful hill stations, the woods and plenty of adventure activities like trekking, hiking or skiing. You can also enjoy a lot of quiet time and serenity, and sunrises and sunsets to help you reconnect with nature. Who would say no to such a package! The state capital of Himachal, Shimla, offers so many opportunities for fun picnics, long walks, shopping et al. Your family will thank you for this wonderful holiday.

Goa calling: Let your hair down : Goa is a perennial favourite, among most families. One of the Goa tour packages is just what the doctor ordered if you want to slow down and just be! Spend hours by the many white sand beaches, enjoy the wonderful seafood of the state, and take up some water sports, of which there are plenty here. The choice is all yours! Goa is just that place where you are under no pressure to tick off a list of places to see and things to do. Even sitting by the beach with family over a sundowner seems like the perfect holiday for you.

Kerala: A kaleidoscope of culture and natural beauty: Yet another popular destination among domestic holiday packages is Kerala. God’s Own Country, as it is called, is a melange of culture, colour, cuisine and sensory delights. Choose of the Kerala tour packages and thank us later! Go on a kept vellum or a houseboat, enjoy the scenic beauty of a typical Kerala landscape — backwaters, decorated boats, coconut trees et al. Enjoy a sumptuous sadya or a traditional meal. The seafood here is also awesome, by the way! Then, there is the Ayurvedic massage that you shouldn’t miss. You can stay in any part of Kerala, and you are guaranteed a great experience. There’s the temple circuit as well if you are interested in ancient temples. If you are into wildlife, there are sanctuaries to visit. Kerala is a nature lover’s favourite as also a key destination for those interested in art and culture. Name your interest, and there’s something for you to enjoy.

Now that you have a list of at least three packages you can pick, choose one of them and have the time of your life with your family!
