Be careful when participating in various activities and traveling.

We should take part in all kinds of activities cautiously. Tourism activities organized with a specific meaning as the theme are called theme tourism. However, some advertisements are misleading, tourism is shrinking, service quality is poor, and organization is not standardized. Therefore, you should be cautious when traveling in various activities.

Be careful in all kinds of activities. 1 is a tourism activity organized with a specific theme. People are used to calling it "theme tourism", which has become a tourism fashion. Recently, however, the Sichuan Consumer Council received a series of collective complaints, reflecting a series of problems such as misleading advertisements, "shrinking" tourism, poor service quality and irregular organization. Experts remind that it is necessary to be cautious to participate in "theme tourism".

First of all, many organizers of "theme tourism" sign self-made contracts with participants, many of which are unequal agreements. In addition, some organizers are not travel agencies engaged in tourism management, but a social group, and their organizational effects can be imagined.

Secondly, the advertisements of "theme tourism" are often outrageous and will mislead participants.

Third, promises are hard to honor, and the quality of tourism services has shrunk. "Theme tourism" is usually cheaper, and its profit model is to obtain social sponsorship or advertising revenue with the help of "theme", and its success is closely related to the number of sponsorship or advertising. Once this aspect doesn't go well, the organizers will try their best to lower the service standards, reduce tourism projects, and some will charge tourists extra.

Fourth, it is difficult to resolve disputes. Organizers aim at profit, and its essence is commercial tourism activities, but organizers often highlight the "theme" infinitely and dilute its commerciality. Once there is a dispute, they always try their best to argue that they are not engaged in commercial tourism, and use this as an excuse to avoid responsibility.

Therefore, experts remind tourists to participate in "theme tourism" cautiously, and to examine the motivation, experience and strength of the organizers and contractors when choosing. In the event of a dispute, it is necessary to promptly complain about rights protection.

Be cautious in participating in all kinds of activities. In order to guide tourists to resist "unreasonable low-cost tour", improve their ability to identify unreasonable low-cost tour products, and constantly create a social public opinion atmosphere of rational consumption, the Quality Supervision and Management Office of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism recently released the second batch of typical cases of "unreasonable low-cost tour" complaints.

1. Buy insurance for travel.

Wang, a tourist, claimed that an insurance company gave him a travel ticket in the name of giving back to customers, and Wang used the travel ticket to participate in a "four-day, three-night tour to Hong Kong and Macao" organized by a travel agency, with a tour fee of 220 yuan. During the trip, the tour guide forced Wang to shop in watch shops, chocolate shops and department stores duty-free shops, and Wang spent 5,000 yuan. After mediation by the tourist complaint handling agency, the travel agency agreed to return the goods for tourists and paid 5000 yuan in advance. The illegal acts of travel agencies will be investigated and dealt with separately in the form of "transferring cases".

Here, tourists are reminded to be wary of merchants organizing low-cost tours in the name of "buying insurance and sending travel". Such tour groups generally induce or force tourists to shop during the trip.

2. Recharge the shopping card and give away the tour.

Li, a tourist, complained that when his shopping card was recharged at 1 0,000 yuan in a shopping mall, he was sent to join a five-day tour in Hong Kong organized by a travel agency, and the tour fee was 0 yuan. During the tour, the tour guide led the tourists to the shopping place without the consent of the tourists, and tricked Li into spending 2000 yuan. After mediation by the tourist complaint handling agency, the travel agency agreed to handle the return formalities for tourists and paid 2000 yuan in advance. Illegal acts of travel agencies shall be investigated and dealt with separately by means of "transferring cases".

4. Take a wedding photo and give it a ride.

Tourists complained that two of them took wedding photos to send people on a trip, and participated in a 6-day tour of Yunnan organized by a travel agency in Yunnan Province, with a tour fee of 0 yuan. During the tour, the tour guide forced tourists to shop in jade shops and silverware shops, spending 2500 yuan. On the fifth day of the trip, he didn't want to take part in the shopping trip, so he left the team with his family. After the tour guide learned about it, he sent a text message to insult the tourists. After mediation by the travel complaint handling agency, the travel agency agreed to handle the return formalities for tourists, paid 2,500 yuan for the return, and apologized to Zeng. Illegal acts of travel agencies shall be investigated and dealt with separately by means of "transferring cases".

Here, tourists are reminded to be wary of merchants giving away tourism products in the name of taking wedding photos. Such tour groups often make profits by inducing or forcing tourists to shop.

5. Hotel consumption gives away travel.

Cui Mou, a tourist, complained that he spent 6,543.8+0,000 yuan in a hotel as a gift and participated in a five-day tour of Yunnan organized by a travel agency, with a tour fee of 50 yuan/person.

Illegal acts of travel agencies shall be investigated and dealt with separately by means of "transferring cases".

Here, tourists are reminded to be wary of merchants giving away tourism products in the name of consumption. Such tour groups will make up for it for various reasons, or force tourists to pay extra fees.

6, double eleven consumption full gift travel

Yang, a tourist, complained that two people participated in a six-day tour of Thailand organized by a travel agency in Zhejiang province through the activity of giving away the full amount of tourism through the Double Eleven consumption organized by an e-commerce. Tour fee 0 yuan, deposit 1, 000 yuan. During the tour, the tour guide added shopping places without the consent of the tourists. Because Yang refused to shop and asked to leave the group, the tour guide forced him to pay the departure fee from 800 yuan. After mediation by the travel complaint handling agency, the travel agency apologized to Yang and refunded the deposit 1000 yuan. Illegal acts of travel agencies shall be investigated and dealt with separately by means of "transferring cases".

Here, tourists are reminded to be alert to the tourism products presented by merchants in the name of full consumption. This kind of tour group usually charges a deposit. If the tourists don't participate in shopping according to the requirements of the tour guide during the trip, the travel agency will not refund the deposit.

Tourist Zhang complained that he participated in a 5-day tour of Hong Kong organized by an international travel agency in Shanxi through shopping activities organized by a shopping mall, and the tour fee was 0 yuan.

8. Buy drinks for travel.

Tourists complained about paying fees, and a group of four people bought walnut milk as a gift to participate in a three-day tour of Beijing organized by a travel agency in Xingtai City, Hebei Province. The tour fee is 0 yuan. During the tour, the tour guide forces tourists to participate in the self-funded projects such as Great Wall Tianqiao and Old Beijing Church 100 yuan/person, and informs tourists that they must pay the self-funded project fees before continuing their tour, and they must spend money on shopping in the future. Because Fu did not pay his own project fee, the tour guide dumped him. After mediation by the travel complaint handling agency, the travel agency apologized to Fu. Illegal acts of travel agencies shall be investigated and dealt with separately by means of "transferring cases".

I would like to remind the tourists that the free travel products launched by merchants often include more shopping trips or self-funded projects, and travel agencies may also "abandon the group", making it difficult to guarantee the quality of tourism.

9. Buy electrical appliances for travel.
