Globetrotting is no more your cup of tea since you became parents? Now you can, we will tell you how.

Whisking children to historical monuments, religious sites and walking them in the woods is a challenging experience, more so when they have bundle of questions to ask and their reluctance to budge. With sub-tropical climate, strong transport system, sumptuous food, unique and exciting vacation spots, and warm hospitality, packaged-tour to India offers a fabulous family vacation.

Indian Food and Children

Travelling in India with children could be taxing in the initial few days; however, with entertaining crowds and plenty of dining options, children can thoroughly enjoy their holidays in India. Taming them to the Indian cuisine can pose several challenges, but with International food outlets like McDonalds and Pizza Hut, and stalwarts like United Coffee House, which provides palatable versions of hot Indian cuisine, in conjunction with pizzas, salads and toasted sandwiches makes your work easier. Serve your adventurous kids steamed rice with curd, if they experimented in the local joints, and had their taste buds flaming. Buy them bananas and fresh pineapple from the sidewalk stalls, offer then hot tea with malted milk biscuits like Parle G and Tiger, to keep their energy levels high at all times.  

Children and Sleep

For budgeted hotel accommodation, the warm and hospitable hotel staff will walk an extra mile for their guests to accommodate bedding and lodging requests, cater special breakfasts, sterilize bottles and prepare hot water for baths.

Higher-end hotels have these facilities well in place, and children under-12 can share their parents’ bedroom free of charge. We advise you to book family rooms with larger space and comfortable sleeping provisions. Babysitting services, rendered at a 12 hours notice, if planning a romantic evening. Few budgeted hotels arrange for a porter or a cleaning person willing to babysit for extra cash.

Children and Health

Children fall sick easily. Therefore, first aid box with fever-reducing medicine, rehydration solutions; treatment for diarrhea, thermometer and antiseptic spray should be kept at hand. Prior to buying a tour to India get, your children inoculated against Malaria, Typhoid and Flu. Ensure they drink only bottled water or water boiled for 10 minutes. Carry your doctor’s prescription and notify the hotel 24-hours emergency in adverse circumstances.

Though you can find diapers at every nook and corner of the street in bigger cities, however it is difficult to find them while visiting smaller places. You can pack your baby’s requirements in your luggage, or purchase from Indian shops in bulk. 

Transport and Children

Train, bus and plane are the three alternatives to travelling in India. Buses are the cheapest source, yet torturous way to get around with children, due to bumpy ride and few stops for food and toilet breaks. Train cascading along mountains, deserts, tea gardens and sea offers an adventurous experience, while plane are swift and reliable.
