Summer is considered a peak season for families, as children are on school break and parents consider and choose a destination that meets all criteria: relaxation, experiences, exploration , and a suitable budget.
According to Ms. Pham Thu Trang (Hanoi), every summer she and her husband choose a new destination to take their three young children on a trip .
Her family prioritizes destinations that offer both relaxation and places for the children to play and unwind after their semester exams.
