'Inbegriffen' (included) is the past participle of the verb 'inbegreifen' (to include). This verb is made up of 'in-' (inside) and 'begreifen' (to grasp, understand). So the literal idea is that something is 'grasped along with' something else, or included.

'drin' and 'inbegriffen' can both mean that something is already part of a price or offer. 'drin' is colloquial and very short: for example, you might say that breakfast is included in the price. 'inbegriffen' sounds more precise and is often used for trips, hotels, courses, or offers. It explains which service has already been paid for. The words can be confused because they mean almost the same thing in this context. In a casual conversation, 'drin' fits; in an advertisement or an offer, 'inbegriffen' fits better.
