ELEPHANT TRUNK TRAVEL

ELEPHANT TRUNK TRAVEL

Elephant trunk travel was founded by Connie Kirker and Lynn Biondi as a way to share their experience and first-hand knowledge of the beautiful countries, culture, and people of Southeast Asia.
With particular emphasis on UNESCO heritage sites and hands-on experience with local culture, Connie and Lynn will accompany you to share destinations they have experienced while living in the region – boutique hotels, restaurants, cooking and art classes, traditional markets, and more.
The Elephant Trunk Travel experience includes a visit to a social enterprise or NGO (non-government organization) in each location where we can ‘Do a little good’ while we ‘have a lot of fun’.
You will also share Connie and Lynn’s personal passions for travel photography, painting and history. You will carry your own luggage but carry it into charming inns that reflect the beautiful architecture and heritage of the region you visit, and best of all provide great value for your travel dollars.

VERONIC TRAVEL

VERONIC TRAVEL

Veronique offers her clients voyages “à la carte”, provides vacations designed for you because your holidays are unique; she covers various destinations worldwide and organizes the entire journey by creating a real dialogue to understand your preferences and compose a customized voyage just for you.

Veronique works exclusively with travel professionals and local contacts to arrange each detail of your vacation with a personal touch that you will not find on the web. The Internet is an invaluable resource, but it “eats” your time and your money and cannot replace the expertise and guidance she will provide. Let her handle the details.

Veronic Travel  is working closely with Celestial Voyagers to plan her group travel when there are more than 10 people traveling together and looking for cultural experiences. Schools, universities, institutions, associations or families can count on her expertise when traveling as a group.
