If you are planning a moderately low budget of around Rs. 20,000 for a tour, look for short getaway options. However, you definitely need to pre-pan to avoid last moment booking hikes. Make sure to keep a tab of all expenditures and make all your bookings in advance – right from travel, to stay, to activities. Stick to low budget restaurants or local foods and local markets to stay within your budget limits.
June is the month of holidays! Your kids are all excited to go on the summer brekkie. Look out for some cool destinations that will rejuvenate your family for the fresh session. Make your bookings early, as it’s a peak travel time.
Leather jackets, thermals, gloves, leg warmers, socks, comfortable walking shoes, lip balm/sunscreen/lotion, wind-cheaters, sweaters/pullovers, mufflers, woollen socks, earmuffs, backpack, umbrella, camera and most importantly a first-aid kit are the best things to pack whilst travelling to the hills.
A lot can be done with a budget of Rs. 20,000! Decent hotels, cool homestays and rustic BnBs can easily fit into this budget. Instead of tourist places, you can explore the destination like a local by visiting local bazaars, cafes, restaurants, streets, etc. Take a shared cab or public transportation to save money. Spend time in nature and take leisurely walks instead of visiting expensive places.
Going for long trips in June is what you can do. The much-awaited summer vacations of school & colleges have already begun. Students & their parents are free of all the mental load of studies. Thus it's the perfect time to have a relaxing vacation.
