Team tour refers to the travel form in which a travel agency or travel agency will form a group of more than 10 people (including 10 people) who purchase the same tour route or project. Team travel is generally in the form of package tour.

It is convenient, comfortable, relatively safe and cheap, but tourists have little freedom.

2. Personal travel

Individual travel is one or more travel services provided by travel agencies for tourists, which is characterized by short booking period, small scale, many requirements, great changes and high freedom, but high cost.

Step 3 travel by yourself

People don't go through travel agencies, but arrange their own travel itinerary and carry out activities according to their own wishes, such as backpacking. It is characterized by freedom, flexibility and frugality. Many people think that self-help travel is a way to save money, and the rough content of travel may lead to many dangers. It is a misunderstanding that it is unsafe not to book a hotel. In fact, if we deeply understand the characteristics of self-help tourism, we will find that self-help tourism is a quite exquisite and distinctive form of tourism.

Self-help tour allows all expenses to be controlled according to your own preferences, the itinerary can be flexibly adjusted, and you can gain a deeper understanding of local customs. Self-help tour is by no means a more fun and cheaper way to travel, but to spend more time in the same place to deeply understand the characteristics of this place, get in touch with local people and things, see what you want to see and take the road you want to go.

Step 4 travel with each other

Mutual assistance tourism is a tourism model spawned by the Internet. It is an activity of making friends with the guiding ideology of independence, equality and mutual assistance, and it is an economic tourism (without middlemen).

In layman's terms, mutual travel means making friends and traveling, bringing personal relationships on the Internet to the real world, emphasizing that travel should not be just "I pass by" but "I experience".

Mutual aid tourism will become one of the main tourism modes of people today, and it is also a modern social concept and happy lifestyle brought by the era of science and technology.
