What's the difference between Ctrip and a travel agency?

First, the difference of itinerary transparency: Ctrip's itinerary transparency is much higher than that of ordinary travel agencies. The main features of Ctrip's itinerary are free travel, time-consuming traffic and playing time. It's all clear at a glance, and reporters accompanying the group can check the specific itinerary online. Ctrip basically has no invisible consumption, which is difficult for general travel agencies to guarantee.

Second, the difference between arranging accommodation: Ctrip is an online tour group, so even the conditions and places of accommodation can be directly searched out, so it is relatively guaranteed. Travel agencies' tour groups usually post several-star hotels as accommodation conditions, but in fact, it may be to gain the number of tour groups, and the actual accommodation is far from the description when reporting to the group.

Third, the difference between tour guides: Ctrip. Com provides personal private tour guides, and nearly 500 tour guides join the private tour guide platform. Tourism organizers can choose their favorite tour guides on the network platform to improve tourists' initiative in the itinerary. The tour guides of travel agencies are fixed and cannot be selected, and there are certain shifts and division of tasks.

Fourth, the difference in the autonomy of the itinerary: the newspaper group on Ctrip visits various tourist attractions, and passengers can choose whether to visit or not, so the leading role of travel lies with passengers. The travel agency's itinerary is fixed. After arriving at the scenic spot, passengers must follow the itinerary, and the main control is the tour guide.

5. The difference between feedback on tourism issues: If Ctrip has problems when reporting group tours, such as hotel arrangements and weather impact, you can give feedback through Ctrip. Com, but the feedback speed is slower than that of the travel agency, and the travel agency can deal with the corresponding problems relatively quickly.
