What should I pay attention to when traveling with a group?

Matters needing attention in group travel Now more and more people are willing to take part in group travel organized by travel agencies, which saves all kinds of troubles in arranging trips and accommodation. However, do you know how to protect your legitimate rights and interests in the process of joining the group? First of all, before you travel, ask whether the travel agency has handled travel accident insurance for you. Because according to the relevant regulations of the country, this kind of fee has been included in the fee you gave to the travel agency. Insurance includes personal safety, medical expenses for emergency treatment, and compensation for lost, damaged and stolen luggage. Secondly, before you travel, you should also sign a contract with the travel agency to clarify the service quality standards that the other party should provide for you. If the travel agency fails to perform the contract intentionally or negligently, it shall be liable for compensation to the passengers. These include: travel agencies cannot travel in time after receiving advance payment from tourists; The quality of the food in the arranged restaurant does not match the price; Hotels and transportation are below the level agreed in the contract. Moreover, during the tour, the tour guide changed the activity schedule, reduced or changed the tour items without authorization in accordance with the contract; Unauthorized increase in catering, entertainment, medical and health care projects; Increase the number of shopping, and arrange for you to buy fake and shoddy goods in shops not designated by the tourism department without authorization. Or buy the goods sold by the tour guide, have the right to ask the travel agency to pay compensation according to the regulations. When the tour guide asks you for a tip, you can report it to the tourism quality management and supervision agency. Attention should be paid to the following issues:

First, choose a regular travel agency. How to choose a regular travel agency? Mainly depends on whether he has the Business License of Legal Person issued by the administrative department for industry and commerce and the Tourism Business License issued by the Provincial Tourism Bureau.

Second, shop around for quotations. At present, some travel agencies are not standardized enough, and they quote prices indiscriminately for vested interests. Therefore, when signing up for a tour, tourists should compare the quotations to reduce the cost.

Third, we should choose the one with good service reputation. Fans should pay attention to local media reports and choose travel agencies that are often praised and have good service reputation.

Fourth, we should carefully understand the travel contract. A travel contract is a contract between tourists and travel agencies. Once the contract is signed, both parties will be responsible. Therefore, it is necessary to know the contents of the contract in detail, especially about food, shelter, transportation and transportation, so as to master the service standards during travel. If there is a breach of contract, you can complain to the travel agency according to the travel contract.

Fifth, we should pay attention to the issue of travel insurance. Travel insurance refers to the compensation that tourists should get for personal injury during their travel. Travel insurance is divided into two parts: first, travel agency liability insurance, which is the insurance that travel agencies should compensate in case of personal injury; Second, life insurance. To join a group tour of a travel agency, you must buy a personal travel insurance. In this way, in the event of accidental injury, tourists should get two insurances.

Sixth, we must be clear about the problem of tourism and shopping. Now travel agencies arrange tourists to shop without authorization for their own interests, which is also the biggest headache for everyone. To solve this problem, when signing up for a tour group, you can clearly put forward that you will not participate in shopping on the way and choose the route of not shopping, and indicate this in the contract. Once shopping happens, you can complain to the travel agency with the contract.
