Everyone has a different price point.

For me, we spend about 10,000 for a family of four to go overseas for a week or so. If doing a domestic vacation, I'd expect to be more in the 4,000-5,000 range for a family of four. For a car trip, I'd expect a week to be around 2,000 - 3,000 for a family of four.

The real question is what can you afford, and what do you value? What is that money buying you?

You can do a trip for much much cheaper if you plan it by yourself. Tours are nice because you can check out mentally and you have a group to share it with but you pay for that.
