Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to ask about the tailored holiday packages you offer.
My partner and I would like to take a trip in August
this
year with our two young children. We intend to visit Bali for two weeks but, never having been to Asia before, we have no idea how to organise a trip that will meet our different interests and requirements. I would therefore
like some information on the different kinds of packages you can provide.
We would like to spend time at a beach, but we also
hope to experience some of the more cultural features of Balinese life. It is essential that there are age-appropriate activities available for our children, who are 8 and 10 years old. Please ensure any cultural activities are both child-friendly and engaging.
Based on the information I have outlined here, please reply with details on the kinds of holiday packages you can offer to meet our specific needs. I would appreciate it if you would send me two or three different options based on prices, accommodation types, locations and types of activities available.
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience. Yours faithfully,

task response
The letter effectively addresses the task and provides detailed information about the holiday requirements and requests for information.
coherence and cohesion
The coherence and cohesion are generally good, with clear paragraph structure and logical progression. The greeting and closing are appropriate, but could be slightly more formal for a business letter.
