Family Tour Packages
Multi-generation holidays paced right for kids, parents and grandparents alike.
Planning a holiday that keeps grandparents comfortable, parents relaxed, and kids entertained is a different kind of travel planning — and it's one of the things Mysore International Travels Pvt Ltd (MIT) does every day. As a South India-based DMC and full-service travel agency headquartered in Mysore, Karnataka, with branch offices in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Coimbatore and Cochin, MIT builds family tour packages around the pace your family actually needs, not a one-size-fits-all itinerary.
MIT is led by proprietor Mahesh M, who brings 22+ years of personal experience in the travel trade to every family itinerary — from choosing accommodation with connecting rooms and pools, to sequencing sightseeing so toddlers get their naps and grandparents aren't rushed between stops. Whether it's a weekend family getaway to Coorg or Kabini, a multi-generation trip across Kerala's backwaters, or an international family holiday to Thailand, Bali, Dubai or Singapore, MIT designs the route, the stays and the transfers around your family's mix of ages and interests.
MIT's credentials in the trade include participation at SATTE 2025 in New Delhi in the "B2B Travel Agent of the Year" category, Amazing Thailand specialist training, a presence at the Karnataka Tourism pavilion, and representing South India at the Arabian Travel Market Dubai and the Karnataka Tourism Roadshow Japan 2025 — the same trade relationships and destination knowledge that go into planning your family's trip.

FAQs
Family Tour Packages — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a family tour package cost?
It depends on the destination, number of travellers, hotel category and season — a family trip to Coorg looks very different in cost from a family holiday to Thailand or the Maldives. Rather than quote a generic figure, MIT puts together a customised quote based on your dates, group size and preferences. Call or WhatsApp +91 96119 57301 for current rates.
What is typically included in a family tour package?
Most MIT family packages include accommodation, private transfers or a dedicated vehicle, and sightseeing as per the itinerary. Depending on the destination and what you choose, meals, entry tickets, a local guide, and for international trips, visa assistance, can be added in. Exact inclusions are laid out clearly before you confirm.
How far in advance should we book a family holiday?
For domestic trips outside peak season, a few weeks' notice is usually enough. If you're travelling during school holidays, festive periods, or peak season (Dubai or Thailand over Christmas-New Year, hill stations in summer), it's worth reaching out 6-8 weeks ahead so preferred hotels and flights are still available.
Can you plan a trip that works for both toddlers and grandparents?
Yes — this is exactly what MIT's family packages are built around. The itinerary is designed with shorter driving distances, built-in rest periods, flexible meal timings, and a mix of easy sightseeing with a few slower resort days, so the pace suits the youngest and oldest travellers in the group.
What are the best family-friendly destinations in South India?
Mysore, Coorg, Ooty, Wayanad, Chikmagalur, Kabini and Bandipur are popular for families because of their cooler climate, nature-based activities, and shorter drive times between stops. Coastal Karnataka and Kerala's backwaters are also great choices if your family enjoys beaches and houseboats.
Does MIT arrange family holidays outside South India?
Yes. Beyond Karnataka and Kerala, MIT plans family trips to Goa, Rajasthan, Kashmir, Himachal, Leh-Ladakh and the Andaman Islands, matching the destination to your family's interests — heritage and forts, snow, houseboats, or beaches and water activities.
What international destinations do you recommend for families?
Dubai, Thailand, Bali, Singapore, Malaysia and the Maldives are consistently popular with families for their easy logistics, family-oriented resorts and activities across age groups. MIT's team has Amazing Thailand specialist training, which is useful if Thailand is on your shortlist.
Is Thailand a good choice for a family trip, and does MIT specialise in it?
Thailand works well for families thanks to its short flight time from South India, family resorts, and a mix of beach time, culture and attractions for kids. MIT's team has completed Amazing Thailand specialist training, so it's a destination the team knows well when building a family itinerary.
How do you handle different energy levels — active teens versus relaxed grandparents?
The itinerary is built as a menu, not a fixed script. Teens can be offered an optional adventure activity or water sport while grandparents rest at the resort or take a gentler sightseeing option nearby, with the group reuniting for meals and the main highlights.
Do you provide private vehicles for family trips, or are we grouped with strangers?
For family packages, MIT typically arranges a private vehicle sized to your group rather than mixing your family into a shared coach tour, so you can stop for a restroom break, a nap, or a photo without holding up other travellers.
Can you plan a trip for just our nuclear family, or do you need a minimum group size?
Both work. MIT plans private itineraries for a single family as well as larger multi-family or extended-family groups travelling together — group size mainly affects vehicle type and room configuration, not whether the trip gets customised.
What kind of hotels do you book for families?
MIT looks for properties with practical family features — connecting or larger rooms, extra bed options, pools where relevant, and a convenient location — alongside the comfort level you want. Specific hotel options are shared with you before you confirm, so you can see and approve what's being booked.
Do you help with visas for international family trips?
Yes, MIT assists with the visa process and documentation guidance for international family destinations as part of planning the trip, so you know what's needed and by when.
Is travel insurance included in the package?
Travel insurance can be arranged or advised on as an add-on depending on the destination — it's discussed with you while finalising the itinerary rather than bundled in automatically, so you know exactly what cover you're getting.
What's the difference between a regular tour package and a family tour package?
A family package accounts for things a standard itinerary might not — room configurations for kids and grandparents, shorter travel legs, built-in downtime, and activity choices that work across age groups. The destinations can be identical; the pacing and logistics are what change.
Can we mix a beach destination with a hill station in one family trip?
Yes, combination itineraries are common — for example, a Kerala backwaters stretch followed by a few days in Wayanad, or a Karnataka circuit covering Mysore, Coorg and coastal Karnataka. MIT sequences the legs to minimise back-and-forth travel.
Kerala backwaters or Goa beaches — which is better for a family holiday?
It depends on what your family enjoys. Kerala's backwaters suit families wanting a slower, houseboat-and-nature experience that works well for younger kids and grandparents alike. Goa tends to suit families wanting beach time combined with more resort activity and a livelier pace for teens. MIT can also combine elements of both if you're unsure.
Do you handle last-minute family bookings?
MIT can often accommodate shorter-notice requests depending on hotel and flight availability at the time, but during peak season or school holidays, booking a few weeks ahead gives you a wider choice of hotels and better rates. It's best to call +91 96119 57301 to check current availability.
How do I get a quote for my family's trip?
The quickest way is to call or WhatsApp MIT at +91 96119 57301, call the landline at 0821 424 7111, or email mitb2btravels@gmail.com with your destination, travel dates, number of travellers (including ages) and any preferences. MIT will put together a customised itinerary and quote from there.
Can MIT arrange family reunions or multi-family group trips?
Yes — MIT regularly plans trips for extended families and groups of friends travelling together, coordinating rooming, transport and group activities so everyone stays connected while still having flexibility in the day.
Do you offer support if we're travelling from Bangalore, Hyderabad, Coimbatore or Cochin instead of Mysore?
Yes. MIT has branch offices in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Coimbatore and Cochin in addition to the Mysore head office, so families departing from or connecting through any of these cities can reach a local point of contact.
What's the best time of year for a family trip within Karnataka and South India?
Roughly October to March is the most comfortable window for Mysore, Coorg, Ooty, Wayanad, Chikmagalur and coastal Karnataka, thanks to cooler, drier weather that's easier on young kids and older travellers. Monsoon months (June-September) bring lush greenery but also heavier rain in the hill and coastal areas, which is worth planning around.
What safety measures should we expect during a family tour?
MIT arranges private, vetted transport, plans realistic drive times with breaks, and keeps a local point of contact reachable during the trip so any changes — a sick child, a tired grandparent, a delayed flight — can be handled without derailing the whole itinerary.
Can grandparents with limited mobility be accommodated in the itinerary?
Yes — let MIT know about any mobility considerations upfront, and the itinerary will be adjusted with easier-access sightseeing, minimal walking at certain stops, and hotels chosen with that comfort in mind.
Do family packages work well for a milestone trip, like a golden jubilee or a big birthday?
Yes, these are among the trips MIT enjoys planning most. Let the team know it's a milestone occasion and they'll factor in a few special touches — a nicer stay for a night, a group activity, or a destination the whole family has been wanting to visit together.
