PostSubject: travelling overseas   Sat Apr 18, 2009 5:39 pm

Traveling places is one of the best ways of entertainment. It not gives enjoyment but also educates and makes aware of different cultures and traditions. Traveling in groups has some advantages as well as some in-conveniences also.
From the famous proverb, "Unity in Diversity", if they go as a group to a new place where language ,custom is every thing new, then it would be helpful for each other in terms of security,analyzing their difficulties regarding local languages to be spoken.So as a whole if they are in groups they can overcome such normal inconveniences.And the other side of the discussion could be ,if they go in groups they will miss the chance of interacting personally with the local people which indeed makes less chances of knowing their culture,their attitudes,and their traditions.
So,the best way for traveling overseas would be approaching through a qualified and trust-worthy guides who has a complete knowledge of the important places and can make the best tour experience.

PostSubject: different ways of travelling   Mon Apr 20, 2009 5:07 pm

Travelling on group tours is definitely an effective option for many people who want to see new countries and faces. This way of travelling has a lot of advantages, for example that there is normally one tourist guide who tells the travellers interesting information and stories about the places they are visiting. It is also good that the people in the group learn to know each other and they could maybe become friends during the tour. This kind of tour is also cheaper than other travelling styles because they usually include the hotel, food, transport and sometimes also recreation.
In the other hand there are many things about the group tour that make it not the best option for everyone. For example there are travellers who would prefer to explore the new places by their own, without depending on the rest of people in the group. For these persons there are many other options of travelling cheap and keep their independence during the travel. One of these alternatives is to do a back packing tour sleeping in hostels around the world. This option is probably better for young people who are also searching for adventure, are not very exigent and want to save some money. For travellers who also want to save money but who need more comfortable sleeping places than a hostel, there are also good hotels where they can get big discounts if they book soon enough. And for those where money doesn’t play a role, its probably the best option to travel on their own, sleep in a nice hotel and pay for a guide if they wish to do so.
By both, doing a back packing tour or booking a hotel it is possible for the travellers to find information in the own language about the countries they are visiting. For example by searching in the internet, by buying catalogues about the places to visit, by asking the habitants of the place or by searching for the tourist information. The big difference between these kinds of travelling and the group travel is not necessarily the amount of money spent, but the way the travellers will probably have to interact with the people from the foreign country. While the tourist group will have to stay together the whole time and will just do what the guides say, the individual travellers will probably have to interact more with the people in the country and decide on their own what they want to do.
To summarise, travelling in a group tour as well as travelling on their own has advantages and disadvantages, depending on what the person is looking for and what expectations from the travel experience he has.

PostSubject: Some people who want to travel overseas elect to go on group   Mon May 11, 2009 11:51 am

now a days people are trying to get more and more idea from their surrounding circle. people want to know about the world activities, culture of different countries, their national clothes, their language, their routine activities that typr of many different things.

for that they try to get information form internet but many people thught we should take personla visit to that country whcih they liked. but they don't know how to arrange their tour and they have many question in their mind for e.g living problem, up and down travel problem, they don't know even geography of that country hence finally he try to contact to tours and travells agent.

Every people think about their safety first and it is the best way to go to with travellers beacuse there are so many others people with family. 2nd thing is that you have received good souranding enviornment so no problem with their language. they can easily undersatnd thie rlanguage also. journy with travellers most essential benefit is that we never feel ourself alone and our all demand are fulfill. We received all types of facilities.

Coins has two parts. some negative part are also there. With gorup tours we wake up early in the morning as per their schedule. they strict with ther terms and conditions means per day maximum journey, hotels and rooms are fixed, visiting place are also fixed. if we want see some special place they can not ptovide that type of facilities. so some people could not prefer journey with group tours

PostSubject: Please evaluate   Tue Aug 25, 2009 2:04 am

Touring to a foreign country has become an integral part of almost every upper class life now. Some people feel travelling in group is advantageous for safety reasons and for adaptations in a new country. There are views that this group touring might limit individuals to fully enjoy the trip. I strongly feel certain coordinations if effectively dealt then group touring is the best way to enjoy.

Basically touring should be filled with fun. It should not be dealing only with schedules. Fun and enjoyment should be the core intention of travel. I should site everyone's college tours as a simple example here. Is it not an unforgettable event in our life even now?? It is because the entertaining way of travel involved in group tours. This is applicable to Foreign trips too. There needs to be some dance, music, games, minor quarrels among the gang which makes the trip live.

In a private or a nuclear family tour, we might be able to see the places we want without any hassels and failure but thery may not be satisfaction in the trip. For example last year I and my wife went to Switzerland for a week trip. Although we were able to decide our timings at our own discretion, at one point of time we really felt boring. In fact my wife started telling me that next time we should plan with our friends.

There are of course few minor constraints in group travelling due to improper coordination. Main problem is assembling in a place at the right time by all the members of the group. The best way to tackle is to get a package which is conducted by tour operators. When coordination is done by a third party, members of the group will not be lazy and reluctant in joining the group or obeying the rules.

To conclude, although minor constraints involved in group travelling, it is always recommended after all touring is fun oriented. The extent of this constraint is insignificant when compared to the enjoyment in group travelling. We may not get the complete satisfaction if travel alone or with very minimum members. Guides or tour operators can be assigned to make the trip more professional and enjoyable.

The World is becoming a smaller place! With more accessable travel across the globe, cheaper flights and a variety of travel options to meet individual needs. Group tours is becoming a popular choice to many. This style of travel allows the traveller the freedom to choice the destination, accommodation and transportation that suits them best. Whilst providing safe and secure experiences without the worries of “going it alone” may cause. Whilst many people enjoy the adventure of solo travel, many more seek the adventure without the worry and prefer the planned approach to visiting foreign countries.
When planning your next holiday each person has different views to what they wish to achieve. Some prefer beach holidays, relaxing in the sun, occasionally taking a dip in the sea to cool off. Others enjoy adventure holidays, sking,diving, mountain biking and generally being active. Others like to visit famous historical attractions, others prefer to explore “off the beaten track”. Each person has individual needs and for some the idea of travelling alone to a foreign country where they speak differently, eat differently and behave differently can be frightening. This is where group travel can be effective. This allows the security of being in a group with tour guides, whilst enabelling the traveller the experience of differing cultures.
I feel this is especially true for some solo travellers of mature age. This style of travel has opened up a new world for my mother. Holidaying once or twice a year via coach travel has brought her many enjoyable and exciting experience, together with developing friendships with her fellow travellers, which otherwise she may has missed, with not having the confidence to plan her own excursions of venturing it alone.
Group touring still offers choice, choice of destination, choice of activities, choice of accommodation, and choice of budget, with the ease of planning your perfect adventure without the worry.
