India with kids

We spent two years living in this amazing country for my husband’s work—long enough to see beyond guidebooks and discover what truly works for families.

From weekend getaways to long road trips, we explored the country as locals, learning what’s calm, what’s chaotic, and what’s surprisingly underrated.

From floating on Kerala’s peaceful backwaters and exploring royal forts in Jaipur to enjoying the best sunrise at the Taj Mahal in Agra and soaking up the sun on Goa’s beaches, India amazed us with how kid-friendly it can be when you slow down and plan smartly.

These guides are written from our experiences—tested itineraries, safe eats, beach getaways, and kid-approved stays that help parents see India confidently.

Whether you’re craving culture, coastlines, or calm, you’ll find it all here, through the eyes of a family who’s lived it.
