Organized or independent tourism?
Visitors may be torn between traveling independently or traveling with a group tour the first time they visit a destination, and both options have their pros and cons.
🔸Independent travel is ideal for travelers with an adventurous spirit and is good either solo or in small groups. It allows travelers to move at a slower pace and to better immerse themselves in the local culture. 🔸Groups with a unique taste in sights or activities should probably stick to independent travel, as no amount of tour customization can beat traveling solo with only time and a guidebook in hand.
In most countries, locals are glad to help independent travelers find their way.
🔸Small group tours, however, have their own benefits. Firstly, they allow travelers to cover a lot of ground in a short period of time. Because transportation is already organized and the groups are led by regional experts, group tours can be a great way to pack in a lot of sights in a narrow time frame. Another benefit to group tours is that they offer safety and security. The importance of this might seem inconsequential when planning a trip to Rome, but it can be quite important when considering a trip to destinations off of the beaten path.
Let’s look at some examples.
A traveler is considering a trip to Spain. One could go independently and spend two weeks lounging on the beaches of Barcelona and exploring the nearby cities of Valencia and Girona. It could be a lot of fun, getting to know the different tapas restaurants and discovering favorite bars and museums.
If that same traveler, however, wanted to take that two weeks and visit the top destinations in all of Spain, a group tour would probably be a better idea, as travel logistics are much more complicated when visiting a dozen cities. Sure, the traveler would only have superficial knowledge of any one destination at the end of their trip, but if the idea of going to Spain without visiting Barcelona, Madrid, Sevilla and San Sebastian is unbearable, it is an option.
In another case, countries like India or Russia are perfect examples of destinations where it’s easier to travel with a group than independently, both for logistical and safety reasons.
