How to deal with compulsory shopping when traveling with a group?

What should I do if the tour guide forces me to shop?

1. First of all, choose a reliable travel agency before you travel.

In the final analysis, it is actually a group of tourists who are greedy and cheap, and the registration fee is incredibly cheap. Such a tour group is bound to be very difficult. In the face of dazzling travel agencies, how to choose? The first is to choose qualified big hotels, some small hotels can go there first, and then there are some illegal tour groups. Choosing a qualified travel agency can avoid the above situation to the greatest extent.

Finally, if you can travel freely, don't choose to travel with a group. This is the safest.

2. Life-saving matters

If you really meet a tour guide who forces you to spend money, don't take tough measures, or you will be easily attacked by tour guide gangs. First, you should "cooperate" with the tour guide and quietly collect the necessary evidence. You can use your mobile phone to shoot or record, and keep the shopping invoice and the contract with the group tour.

When you get home, you should immediately take the evidence and materials to the travel agency to complain about the compulsory consumption behavior of the tour guide. If the travel agency turns its back on people, it can also expose its behavior in the media and online. If it really doesn't work, you can also bring evidence to court.

To sum up: First, don't be greedy and cheap, don't believe that pie falls from the sky, read the contents of the agreement and contract carefully before going to the group, and write down the shopping spots. Second, if you really encounter it, you can buy some local products appropriately. It doesn't matter where you buy it anyway. If the tour guide asks for something you don't need, play it by ear. Whether to buy first or not depends on the attitude of the tour guide. Third, try not to conflict with the tour guide. You can go back and complain about him if you have no money. Personal safety is the most important. Don't do anything too dangerous in a strange place.
