When you’re traveling out of the country and want to get the most out of your time with little to no stress, a guided tour is a great option. But how do you choose a tour that you will be happy with? The most important thing to know is to stay with a reputable tour wholesaler. They will get you into sites without long waits and sometimes offer VIP private tours. They’ll increase safety, assist you with currency exchange, keep you on track so that you don’t miss the important sites you came to see and educate you on the history and culture of the destination. Examples of some of the wholesalers I use are Tauck Tours, General Tours, CIE Tours, Image Tours, Globus Tours and Trafalgar Tours.
Choosing the tour company can be challenging but having a travel professional to help you sort through the different companies and what makes each unique will save you time and frustration. Some things to consider are the number of people you’d like to travel with, the rating of hotel you prefer, how inclusive would you like the trip to be and decide how much of the local culture you want to experience. Some tour operators specialize in a specific area, while others cover the globe.
If you’re not interested in a guided tour, there are hosted tours and private guided tours that might be a great fit for you. Where do you want to go and how do you want to travel? I can help you choose the tour to insure your experience is amazing!
