Auasia Travel planned our 19-day custom build family holiday, the pricing was better than any standard package on the market and was designed around dates that fitted into other holiday plans. Our family of 6 received private transfers, 4+ star accommodation and a bilingual guide for all tours. Accommodation was prebooked so that a family room or two triple were available on arrival with no need to adjust room configuration. This was one of the best family holiday I have been on. Our local guides were extremely helpful and went out of their way to ensure we had a smooth holiday and adjust times and dates to suite the weather and family needs. Thank you to everyone from Auasia Travel for a great family holiday. The planning of the holiday was well thought out with sufficient time at each stop and considered all our needs.Less
