What are the forms of tour groups and how to choose travel agencies and group tours?

It's realized that many people will choose to play with a group when they are afraid of trouble, but it's actually very easy to step on the pit with the group. Then the question comes, how to avoid stepping on the pit? Another question is, what are the ways to travel with a group? Travel agency forms

What are the forms of group tour services provided by travel agencies?

Traveling with a group

Traveling with a group means traveling with a group all the time, and arranging everyone's food, accommodation, shopping and entertainment. The doorway is the deepest. I will press the button first, and then I will talk to you slowly later.

free travel

free travel is to book your own air tickets, hotels and itineraries. What do you want to do? But what does this have to do with travel agencies? Because the travel society has specially launched some packages of "hotel+air ticket" and "hotel+scenic spot", the package price is often much cheaper than booking the air ticket alone and the hotel.

semi-self-help

semi-self-help, which is between group tour and free travel, can not only enjoy the preferential price of group tour, but also not be bound by the trip that the group tour is stuck. Generally, the four-day trip, the first two days are a group tour, providing pick-up service and scenic spot tour, and the middle two days are free activities, only providing hotel accommodation, which is relaxing.

Private group

Let's talk about private groups. Private groups are slightly different from customized tours. Private groups have established route templates, and users share the expenses according to the number of people, one for each group. You can enjoy the discount of group booking, and you don't have to join a group with other casual guests. When there are many people, it is very favorable.

customized tour

finally, the customized tour is completely arranged according to the customer's requirements. You can arrange what hotel you want to stay in, what food you want to eat and where you want to visit, as long as it is legal and legal. And don't think that customized tours must be very expensive. Now the price of tourism is so open and transparent, what can't be found? At present, the quotation of customized tour is based on the cost plus 1%-2% service charge. This is more suitable for enterprise customization, or customers with money and leisure, as long as the money is in place, you will be satisfied. How to choose a group tour

Before choosing a group tour, the first thing to do is not to choose a route, but to choose a platform!

after the outbreak of the epidemic this year, how many small travel agencies closed down and their bosses ran away directly? Not only did tourists lose all their money, but many tour guides did not know how to recover the group money paid in advance.

There is also the Atlantis explosion in Sanya in July. Tourists bought Atlantis for three nights at a high price, but they couldn't stay and had to sleep on the street. Where did you order the product? Mom group in the circle of friends! Did you sign the contract? No!

The role of travel agency is quite special. It is not a resource provider, but a platform that integrates various resources. A reliable platform that is interdependent with hotels, airlines and scenic spots is the most perfect guarantee.

otherwise, if something really happens, just run away. Who are you looking for?

Therefore, I recommend products to my guests, including ordering them myself, and only choose them from big platforms or large-scale travel agencies. Although it is more expensive, it is guaranteed.

There are often guests who show me the poster of a special tour group. I identify the QR code and often only have the itinerary and a bunch of format terms. It seems to be very serious, but I have never heard of this travel agency, and there is no travel agency license number that must be marked.

what's the difference between this and three no products? Who are you looking for if something goes wrong?

after selecting the platform, we must first make clear the tourist destination, but the planting of grass is mainly under the control of "a certain sound" and "a certain book", and the travel agency is responsible for weeding, and then the team products are selected.

before choosing a product, the first thing is to think about your budget.

The online platform has a very useful price sorting function. Let's look at it from high to low and from low to high, and we have a good idea.

However, this sort without filtering conditions is a hodgepodge, and hard attributes such as private groups are removed, and the rest of the group tour and semi-self-help part are what we are going to talk about today.

Do you think that as long as you spend more money on group tours, you can eat well, live well and have a good time? Pure play without shopping?

the first half of this sentence is correct. if you spend more money, you will definitely get better accommodation, transportation and other arrangements, but if you spend more money, you will definitely have fun without shopping? That's not necessarily true.

For a concrete example, the Taiwan Province Line organized by our agency has two products, one is an 8+ 5-diamond shopping group, and the other is a 3+ 3-diamond pure play group.

Yes, I spent more than 8, yuan to arrange shopping in the store, because this hotel is good, the whole journey is five stars, and the cost is high. On the contrary, more than 3, groups spend all their time on sightseeing.

of course, people can't live in a five-star hotel, and it's reasonable to have gains and losses.

therefore, when screening products, we must consider comprehensively, is it necessary to require hotels to have 5 stars? Do we have to play without shopping? If it is cheaper to enter the store, will it be considered?

if I go out to play by myself, I will choose a slightly worse hotel, but I don't want to go shopping in the store. I'm all in the same trade. If I don't buy it, I know it's difficult for a tour guide. Buy it, hehe

. I also know that this thing is not worth the price. If I have the money, I might as well sign up for a pure tour group.

after thinking about these additional options clearly, we can select some products by filtering and sorting. The pits for group tours

Now the outbound tour is not open, so I'll tell you about the domestic tour routes.

1. Although it is a purely fun trip, can the tour guide recommend self-funded projects? Can!

The routines we are familiar with are: small traffic in domestic scenic spots, secondary tickets, entertainment projects in scenic spots and so on.

some of them are interspersed in the line: they were originally appearance items, and they all arrived at the door. Do I have to pay a ticket to get in? Otherwise, you have to wait at the door for 3 minutes or an hour.

It was originally a hiking route, but you can better appreciate the scenery of the mountains and rivers by boat. Will you take this boat?

there was no meal, but now there is no shop in the middle of the village, and there is no choice but group meals. Would you like a special?

these are the gray areas in team operation, and regular travel agencies will clearly mark them, saying that pure play means pure play, but it is not excluded that some small travel agencies will use these routines to "scratch the ball".

it's not that I don't recommend you to attend. I just remind you to add these expenses to the budget when screening the itinerary before departure, so as to have an idea of the overall expenditure of the itinerary.

2. Let me remind you that many routes will be linked with "quasi-four-star" hotels, which is not found in domestic hotel star ratings. A four-star with the word "quasi" must not be four-star, or even Samsung.

In the new version of the contract, the contents of Tourism travel itinerary are clearly defined, especially the travel itinerary terms must be accurate and clear, and there should be no uncertain terms such as "quasi-star hotel", "luxury", "for reference only", "subject to ×××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

So the wording of a compliant Travel to travel itinerary is very accurate. Where to go? How long will you stay? How much does it cost? Everything is written clearly and clearly. If it is vague and the price is particularly cheap, you should pay attention to it. There must be holes, which will definitely make you spend more money.
