Build around the experience you want
Make the package work for your trip.
Select the main excursion before filling the schedule with every southern highlight. A Mekong request needs its own operating route and boarding review; a Cu Chi request needs an activity-suitability discussion. Keep them separate unless a detailed combined proposal suits the actual group. Enter the real CCU flight options in the worksheet without assuming a short or nonstop service. If an island extension is important, add nights or remove an excursion so the domestic travel day remains honest.
Illustrative brief to adapt
Kolkata with one main southern excursion
A short Kolkata-origin stay can use the city as its base and choose the river experience as the main outing. Keep the historical excursion optional until usable days are confirmed. The package becomes clearer when the actual CCU journey determines the schedule rather than a generic claim about a short flight.
Different choices. Different implications.

What determines the budget
Quote the city stay, private or shared excursion basis, admissions and meal requests. Compare separate excursion days with any combined operating product.
No starting fare is advertised. The relevant dates, rooming, service basis and current supplier amounts determine the proposal.
Specific to this package decision
Four questions worth resolving.
Is a Kolkata departure always a short nonstop journey?
Current schedules must be checked for the exact dates and airports. This page does not publish flight duration or guarantee a nonstop route.
Which excursion should a short stay prioritise?
Choose the experience the travellers most want, then review transport and suitability. City, river and historical interests do not need equal time in every package.
Can participants skip enclosed-space activities?
Ask the operating supplier which activities are optional and what alternatives exist. Include individual comfort requirements before confirming a Cu Chi-related request.
How would Phu Quoc change the short stay?
It adds a domestic movement and another accommodation base. Compare the revised night count and complete return journey before adding it.
