Which Do You Prefer: Joining Package Tours or Travelling on Your Own? There is a heated discussion about whether travelling by joining package tours is better than travelling on your own. Some supporters hold the view that it can be more convenient, cheaper, and safer. While the opponents think that travelling on one’s own can make one feel free and relax. Package tours contain some problems that need to be solved. As for my view, I feel that it is much more convenient and comfortable than travelling on my own as I did before.
First of all, participating in the package tour, I don’t have to worry about the arrangement for beard and lodging. The travel agency has settled everything ahead of time. It is great to have a good meal and a sweet sleep after a whole day’s tour. Secondly, I can know more about the place I visit. The guide can give me more specific introduction and more vivid description about the history, scenery, and local customs. What’s more, the guide arranges funny activities and gives the tourists enough time to do what they like, such as playing games, buying souvenirs and taking pictures. The guide makes great efforts to let the tourists enjoy themselves. If tourists are not satisfied with the package tour’s service, as a tourist, he can complain it and claim his rights. Comparing with travelling on one’s own, though a little more expensive, joining a package tour provides tourists with safety and satisfaction.
On the whole, I prefer to join a package tour, which is more convenient, comfortable and enjoyable.
