Reviewed 20 September 2026 · bands re-compiled each quarter against live market listings; inclusions and exclusions reviewed whenever an operating cost changes
These are live market bands for 2026, compiled across Thomas Cook, SOTC, Yatra, Veena World, Thrillophilia, Akbar Travels, PickYourTrail, WanderOn and Flamingo, and they are the bands we quote inside. We publish them before you enquire because the alternative — a price behind a form — is the single most common complaint about this industry.
| Package | Nights | 2026 band, per person | Who it is for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paris short break | 3N/4D – 4N/5D | ₹84,000 – 1,10,000 | A first taste of France, or an add-on to a longer Europe trip |
| Paris + Disneyland, family | 5N/6D | ₹74,500 – 1,20,000 | Families with children under twelve. The best-value entry point in the market |
| France classic | 7N/8D | ₹1,23,000 – 1,60,000 | The standard first France trip: Paris plus the Riviera, the Loire or Normandy |
| Paris + Switzerland | 6N/7D – 7N/8D | ₹1,35,000 – 2,75,000 | The highest-volume combination in the Indian market |
| Amsterdam + Paris | 5N/6D | ₹70,000 – 1,06,000 | Entry-level Europe, usually coach-based |
| France honeymoon | 5N – 7N | ₹92,000 – 1,64,000 | Couples. Paris alone, or Paris with Nice |
| French Riviera | 3N – 6N | ₹95,000 – 2,98,000 | Nice, Cannes and Monaco — the widest band on this table, and the reason is the hotel |
| Slow France — Loire, Normandy, Provence | 4N – 7N | ₹1,00,000 – 1,65,000 | Second visits, and travellers who would rather see one region properly |
| Europe multi-country, classic | 9N – 12N | ₹1,65,000 – 3,05,000 | The volume seller in the Indian market, with France as one stop of several |
| Luxury France | 7N – 10N | ₹3,00,000 – 4,30,000+ | Private transfers, five-star hotels and guiding throughout |
This is the table competitors hide, and it is the reason a ₹74,500 headline and a ₹1,23,000 headline are not always comparing the same thing. Ours is printed here before you enquire.

Each has its own page with the day-by-day plan, the full price band and the same exclusions table.
The standard first France trip. Five nights in Paris with Versailles and one full day out, then south to the Riviera by high-speed rail.
Built around children: a full day at the park, Paris at a pace a family can actually keep, and the food question answered before you fly.
Paris alone, or Paris with the Riviera. Timed to the April–June window that South Indian wedding seasons feed into.
The most-requested combination in the Indian market — and the one with a visa trap in it, which we explain on the page rather than after you book.
WhatsApp or a phone call to the Coimbatore office, in Tamil, English or Hindi. We need the travel window, how many adults and children, the departure city, and any dietary or mobility requirement. That is enough to start.
A day-by-day plan with named hotels, a land price per person, a live airfare quote on your dates, and the exclusions list printed. If something in your plan will not work — four countries in seven nights, August dates that could move — we say so at this stage rather than after the deposit.
Every document read against the France-Visas requirement set. About one in six Indian Schengen applications is refused, most commonly on financial documentation, and the check happens before you book a train to Chennai, not after.
Hotels and flight reservations issued against your booking, in the form the application expects. Non-refundable tickets are not issued at this stage, because the visa has not been decided yet.
Appointment booked at the France centre in Chennai, with the current address confirmed the week you travel. Processing is commonly 15 to 30 days. We track it with you.
Once the visa is in, air tickets are issued, meal codes go on the ticket, and you get the final document set: vouchers, timings, contact numbers and the on-tour support line. Then you fly.
You will find a three-day Paris package advertised in this market at around ₹25,200. It is a real price and it is not a lie; it is two nights, land only, no airfare, no visa fee, no monument tickets. It is also not a France holiday, it is a price designed to win a comparison table.
Our bands look higher because they describe a week rather than a weekend and because the things that are excluded are written down. A ₹1,23,000 seven-night France package and a ₹25,200 three-day Paris headline are not competing products, and any operator who lets you believe they are is relying on you not reading the nights column.
The other reason is that we do not quote land-only prices with the airfare implied. From Coimbatore there is no nonstop to Paris, the positioning leg is a real cost, and in-season return airfare runs ₹55,000 to ₹85,000. Rolling that into a single number would make our headline look better and your budget worse. So we quote the land price as a band, quote the airfare live on your dates, and add them up in front of you.
₹84,000 to ₹1,10,000 for a Paris short break of three to four nights, ₹1,23,000 to ₹1,60,000 for a classic 7N/8D France tour, and ₹1,35,000 to ₹2,75,000 for Paris with Switzerland. All per person on twin sharing, land only unless stated, with international airfare and the visa fee quoted separately.
Not in the published bands, and we say so rather than implying it. Airfare is quoted live on your dates because it is the most volatile line in the whole budget — ₹35,000 to ₹50,000 return off-season against ₹55,000 to ₹85,000 in season, plus a positioning leg from Coimbatore or Madurai.
We handle everything except the parts only you can do. Document check, confirmed hotel vouchers and flight reservations, itinerary documentation, insurance meeting the EUR 30,000 minimum, and the appointment. You attend the Chennai centre in person for biometrics and you provide your own financial evidence.
Yes, as a pre-arranged item rather than something found on the day. Jain-strict food barely exists as a restaurant category in Paris, so the workable answers are meals arranged with kitchens weeks ahead and, for longer stays, an apartment with a kitchen plus groceries from the Tamil quarter. For groups of 4 or more we usually recommend an apartment with a kitchen.
Every tour we sell can depart from Coimbatore, with the positioning leg to Chennai, Bengaluru or Kochi built into the ticket. There is no nonstop to Paris from CJB — or from Chennai, Bengaluru, Madurai or Hyderabad — so the routing decision is part of the quote rather than an afterthought. Budget ₹55,000 to ₹85,000 for an in-season return plus the positioning leg.
The Paris and Disneyland shape, at ₹74,500 to ₹1,20,000 per person for 5N/6D, is the best-value family entry point in the market. For four people that is roughly ₹3 to ₹4.8 lakh of land cost before flights, visas and the park tickets that are not inside the base band.
Yes, and most of what we sell is customised. The common changes are swapping the Riviera for the Loire or Normandy, adding or removing Disneyland, adding a Tamil-speaking guide for specific days, and changing the hotel category. Each change is repriced in rupees before you approve it. The bands run ₹74,500 to ₹3,05,000 per person depending on shape.
Because a fixed price for a trip 6 months away is either padded or about to change. The bands are the real market range, the quote on your dates is a real number, and the exclusions are printed. What we will not do is show a single low figure with an asterisk that unpacks into four more charges.
Five to six months. The visa alone needs about 3 months of runway, and Indian enquiries peak December to February for the April–June season, which means the mid-range hotels go early. Booking three months out is possible; booking three months out and expecting first-choice hotels is not.
