Group tours are a great option for travellers on a budget. These are also a great way to meet new people, while exploring new destinations. Organised group tours have earned themselves a bad name in the travel community due to their perceived rigidity.
However, all group tours aren’t about being shuttled from one place to another on a strict timeline. There are a lot of orgaised group tours that allow plenty of individual flexibility, and let you really explore a destination.
In a country like India, traveling in a group can really enhance your overall experience. The sights, sounds, and smells of this vast land are best explored with fellow travellers.
There are, in fact, quite a number of benefis of for travelling in groups. Here are a few for you to consider .
WHY GROUP TOURS
•Having someone to guide you– Sometimes, planning for all the small details of a tour, accommodation, places to visit, food, etc by yourself can become quite hectic. Being a part of a group tour takes away this headache from your travel. Your tour manager will tell you your destinations for the day, and provide you with fun facts about the places you visit.
This way, you can get the best out of your destination, and also avoid any other hassles you might face during your travels, such as language barrier, etc.
•Meet New People – In a group tour, you will meet different kinds of people who have also signed up to make new friends. It is much easier to strike up a rapport with fellow group members, than striking up a conversation when you’re travelling alone.
Since you will be travelling with each other for some time, you’ll soon understand who all you would like to talk to. In fact, over the course of the tour, the others might also surprise you.•Safety in numbers – In an organised group tour, you can relax knowing that someone is there to look after you if something goes wrong. Having a tour leader to advise you is a great help when you are in an unknown land.
Knowing others in the group are also there is also a great reassurance. Even if nothing does actually go wrong, it is always a good feeling to know that there are people you can turn to, in case you need to.•Price Benefits– Group tours are a great idea for those who are on a budget. Usually the prices for an organised group tour are lesser than indvidual travel itineraries, as they are shared with fellow travelers . Plus, your tour manager can also arrange for great deals and discounts on food, drinks, and other activities.
Restaurants and hotels also offer better rates for bigger groups, and you can avail great deals by booking yourself a group tour.•Having someone to take your photos: – Selfies are great, but sometimes you just want a proper shot of yourself when you are travelling. Asking a local person may not always be possible due to many reasons including language barrier. But having fellow group members always comes in handy for this reason.
They can not only take great pictures of you, but you can also have great fun posing with them and make some truly great vacation photos.SOME OF OUR GROUP TOURS
