GUIDED GROUP TOURS

A guided group tour is a package trip in which a group travels to and around a destination by bus, train or plane, visiting museums and restaurants according to a set itinerary. These types of vacations are becoming incredibly popular, and for several good reasons including convenience, expert guides and tremendous bang for the buck. Generally you pay one price for most everything including accommodations, most meals and entry into whichever excursions/activities are included with your tour.
Pros:
  • Highlights of multiple cities
  • Skip lines at local attractions
  • Luggage handling
  • Local expert/guide/translator at your service
  • Most meals included
  • You are able to spend your time sightseeing instead of trying to find your way around an unfamiliar place.

Cons:
  • Can be a tight schedule/early mornings
  • Trip is dependent on the “group”
  • Lots of activity packed in to the itinerary.
  • Travel time between stops.
