Our family trip to Cambodia and Vietnam was pending since a decade. I had always wanted to visit this paradise of ruins and temples which once held glory like never before. The allure of the mystic was enchanting and so finally this time, when my wife, son, and I decided to go on a holiday, it was a unanimous decision. I was excited to gain knowledge about the people, culture, and history of the place and also flex my skills when it came to photography. Thankfully, it turned out exactly as we had planned!

Since we had no idea about how to proceed further with our trip, we decided to go for a package and started searching for the same on the internet. It wasn’t long before we came across TravelTriangle. I liked their customization package concept and decided to go for it.

After filling a few basic details, I was soon contacted by their representative, Megha (she did an excellent job handling our trip) who asked about our trip preferences, budget, and a few other things before connecting us to various agents for customized packages.
