After a long gap, we finally managed a comfortable road trip with my husband and parents. The longer travel days were balanced with lighter sightseeing where possible. For our family, the arrangements worked well.
We planned this as a short break, and I was travelling with two friends. My father appreciated a tea stop in the middle of the drive. One small suggestion: share the next day's start time a little earlier.
Booked this after discussing the route with two friends. My father appreciated a tea stop in the middle of the drive. We returned with good memories, which was what we wanted.

I chose this itinerary because my husband and parents were joining and I did not want an overpacked schedule. Pickup was on time and we did not have to keep calling for the vehicle. We had a clear idea of the next day's plan, which made mornings easier. The temple visit was calm and my parents were happy with the time we got there. The trip did what it was supposed to do without unnecessary hassle. One thing I liked was that nobody objected when we asked to slow the day down a little.

I travelled with two friends for a few days away from work. We changed one small stop during the trip and it was handled without any fuss. The trip worked well for a mixed-age family group. The plan was practical and left a little breathing room between sightseeing. The trip was good overall; just a little more advance timing information would help.
