Recent travel review

Our family had an unforgettable tour in Vietnam, which was arranged by our tour agent Long. The entire trip was flawless and our guides showed genuine concern for both the adults and twin babies, making sure that we had a memorable experience. The journey was particularly eye-opening, adventurous, and captivating for our baby twins, who will hold onto these memories for years to come. As for the adults, we were pleasantly surprised by the variety of activities included in our itinerary, such as visiting archaeological sites, swimming, kayaking, riding small boats, and enjoying excellent meals on board our cruise. Each island and activity offered a unique experience that we thoroughly enjoyed. We highly recommend Connek Trip! – Ms. Aarushi
