Good luck!

Travelling and experiencing first hand feel of a country and its customs is the best way to self indulge oneselve.Geting out and exporling new place , people ,sharing moments with your family and friends have always been exciting.I prefer going out on such occassion with my friends and family.Having known people aroud keeps the excitment and fun alive,one can share the experience,company of good peolpe helps in a new unknown place.
Travelling alone is very boring and having no one to share your joy is the worst thing to happen.Joy of travelling is when you have people who have alike feelings there present to talk to,share ideas and cherish candid moments.My family and i enjoy travelling and exploring new places and culture so its always easy to relate with eachother in this aspect and we always had good moments.These are the moments that keep us family together inspite of us all having different lifes to live and huge responsibilities.This gives us a chance to knit our family together.

Being aone in anew place can be riskyand without a group or a guide fetching information will be difficult.Its more secure and handy when you haveoyur friends around.Information like accomadation,transportation,food can divided among memebers to be obtained and each member or person can engage themselves usefully and like wise more information helps to see and know more fo the new place.Most of the people travel to get out from there daily routines in life,feel relaxed,have fun,discover the unknown,know the world they live and get first hand feel of it all.There is no better way to experience this without friends and family.
Travelling abroad can be well planned like in terms of fixing up the approoriate dates ,places to visit ,the group you want to travel with, expense all of which can be jotted and planned well in advance to set for the trip one longed for.Going in groups save money and valuable time and energy.According to me i always prefer to go in a group of sportive and fun loving company to keep the sprit of travelling high and refresh those special moments again and again .

I am very much delighted to know your site.Thank you very much for this and I am sure I can improve my writing with your support and achieve the target.


Some people who want to travel overseas elect to go on group tours. This can provide them with a

sense of security and ease in a foreign country where they are unfamiliar with the language and

customs, but it can also restrict them from experiencing a lot of things about the country they have

come to see.



To what extent is this style of travel effective?

Are there better ways to travel overseas and experience a foreign country and culture?

This is being a trend to travel overseas these days . I disagree to large extent that if they go in groups , it will restrict them from experiencing a lot of things about the country they have come to see however there are some argument against it.

On the one hand, I disagree for several reasons. Firstly, it is usually a lot of fun going overseas together in a group . The reason which i believe ,is we can share our happiness, exploration and the struggle which may occur and experience during the tours. For example, we can laugh and joy together on the tour and hug together if we feel the homesick or if we get hard time during that period. Secondly, it is the matter of security to travel in groups. Sometimes, the new country and the new exposure could be scary. Moreover, unfamiliarity regarding language , customs, culture and social system may result in confusion and feel insecure oneself and in reverse ,we can find the way effectively if we are in groups. Thirdly, it is true that more the head, more the things explore and more satisfaction. Lastly, it is usually cheap to go on groups in which we can sum all costs in total and then we can divide per head in flexible forthcoming time so that if someone has no money right a way, they can take their breath easily ,travel on groups and pay later.

On the other hand, I agree to some extent with the statement. It hinders to get all enjoyment and satisfaction if we are in groups. First in manner, it is acceptable that each individual is unique and if we join the groups to which we are spending much money and time to learn and exposure on something from overseas, there is some chance to be frustrated. The reason is we need to me obligated with the groups and the interest may not match each other. The result is , eventhough if I want to visit one particular hospital because I am interested to know about the emergency care provided to the injured person, other may want to experience in Medical-Surgical care. It may be difficult to get permission with large demand. Second in manner, it is sometime difficult to learn and see the things if we are in large group .For instance, if we are observing one demonstration , it may be out of vision because of large number and hard to learn the things from there.

In general, we can achieve our goal easily if we travel oversees in groups and the group instead of travelling alone is usually mandatory

Tourism is one of the biggest industries of many industrialized countries. It is natural for people to yearn for travel to see unfamiliar and interesting places they have heard or seen, read on multi-media outlets. Travel is true to both to all classes. eight lower, middle or the elite or upper class of society. Most of those who could afford group tours are the middle and upper classes of society as they are the ones with financial capability.

If you are to ask me if traveling by group tours is effective. Yes, it is as being with many fellow travelers is like a security blanket and you have a feeling of fiesta or party atmosphere where you can enjoy not only inside the ship but also when you embark on different places.

In this wide wonderful world, people likes to travel to other countries in group tour for different pupeses such as, enjying the life,to know the culture and living style, Business, and so on.In this some prefer group tour which can be really find exciting in individules.

Travel and tourism is improing a lot world wide which tempt humanbeing to take tour especially to foreign countries though they are unfemiliar to such countries.On the other hand it can be restricted them to some extent, like if they are not known about the language of puticular country it will be difficult to the tourist for conversation.For instace Dubai is becoming number one tourist place and where people forced themselves to visit.

At the end I wolud like to conclude saying that these are the best way to visit a foreign country for the varies purposes.
