    1. Self-guided travel refers to traveling with a bag in the most cost-effective way. Design your own route, arrange everything in your journey, free, active, profound, full of hardships and poetry, take advantage of the convenience brought by modern civilization, but not be blinded and bound by business.

    1.Self-guided tourism is not the preserve of young people, nor is it synonymous with money-saving tourism, but has become an important tourism trend, regardless of age, people who want to enjoy free, in-depth and characteristic tourism will join the ranks of self-guided tourism.

    Money barriers. 2.Self-guided travel isn't necessarily cheaper, and those who prefer to travel on their own can enjoy the freedom to see your favorite sights, taste local cuisine, and enjoy a variety of entertainment activities as you like. Domestic travel agencies are very competitive, and the tour fares are often very low**.

    3.barriers to self-guided travel;

    1) Time barrier: One of the great pleasures of self-guided travel is to experience the local culture, and you need to spend a certain amount of time in the places you like and learn about the local customs. In general, a long-distance self-guided trip is best over 7 days, with two weeks being ideal.

    2) Psychological disorder: For a person who has no experience of self-help travel, there is always a bit of dreading. Being in a foreign land, especially a foreign country, language barriers, inability to understand foreign languages, and lack of life are all problems.

    3) Money barriers: self-guided travel does not save money, the skills of purchasing air tickets, accommodation hotels, etc.

    2. Travel agencies design travel routes or itineraries to provide tourists, and achieve the goals of both parties through the relationship between buyers and sellers, which is obviously in a passive position in today's pursuit of personalized social services.

    3. Create a professional travel strategy according to the defects of the above self-guided tours:

    1.Tourists are offered more lenient travel time.

    2.Provide visitors with a more detailed introduction to the attractions.

    3.Provide tourists with more cost-effective air tickets and hotels.

    4.Provide safer travel guidelines for tourists.

    Independent travel is an emerging form of tourism. Accommodation and transportation are arranged by the travel agency, but there is no tour guide with you, and meals are arranged by the travelers. It is more free and convenient, the schedule can be adjusted at will, and the excursions on the itinerary can also be changed as you like.

    Since there is no shopping and self-pay items, tourists can spend their money on the "knife edge" in the independent trip, and they can freely go to the most worthwhile attractions, and all the time is free time.

    In Taiwan, it is commonly known as "airline plus wine", that is, air tickets plus hotels. Similar to group tours, accommodation and transportation are arranged by the travel agency, but there is no tour guide for the independent tour, and meals are arranged by the traveler himself. In addition, independent travel is different from semi-self-guided travel in that passengers are limited in the choice of airline flights and hotels, but the flexibility of travel arrangements is the same as that of semi-self-guided travel.

    Free travel is more free, this is the biggest benefit, the traditional tour with the tour group all the itinerary is arranged in advance, the tour group takes tourists where to go, where to eat and where to stay are the tour group is booked in advance, there is not much free time at all, and the day is generally full, from morning to night, rush to the attractions.

    This is not fun at all for many people, and it is not good to stay in a favorite attraction for a long time, and independent travel is to arrange their own itinerary, play how they want, and do not have to worry about running with others to play.

    Independent travel, also known as self-parade and self-guided travel, is a new form of tourism.

    The difference is that group tours are arranged by travel agencies for accommodation and transportation, accompanied by a guide. Not only does the independent travel not follow the group, but also there is no tour guide to accompany the tourist, the travel itinerary and route are completely selected by the tourists themselves, and the food and drink are also arranged by themselves.

    Independent travel is a high-level need for travel services, and it is also an important embodiment of personal dignity.

    Advantages: A family or a few friends play together, and there will be no unpleasant-looking people traveling with you.

    Time and space are more free, and you don't have to gather at a fixed time and place, and you don't have to squeeze into a car with other people.

    There is no tour guide, and there are no problems such as misleading, forced consumption, and deceptive consumption.

    Dining is your own decision, you don't spend much, but you can eat local specialties.

    You are talking about pure free travel, the free travel of travel agencies, which is different from pure free travel, and it is not a tour with a large group, combining the convenience and freedom of travel, and it will be very comfortable to play, but the cost is higher.

    There are many ways to travel independently.

    Travel agency FIT is a product.

    After the travel agency organizes a free travel group, you can get a group ticket, which is cheaper than your individual ticket, and the travel agency has a group room with a high level, which means that you can book a chain hotel for 100 yuan, and they can book a 3-star hotel.

    You don't have to run errands for visas.

    But there are limitations, not necessarily when you want, not necessarily the city you want to visit, not necessarily how long you need to stay.

    That is, the travel agency provides round-trip transportation and accommodation through the group advantage, which will be cheaper than going alone, but the time is generally fixed; When you get to the local area for free and easy, it's even more casual!

    The group will bring you there first, and then let you move around freely or take you to play for a day or two, and then gather together with the group and come back after a day or two. I think this way of traveling is very good, and there is a lot of freedom.

    The independent travel of group tours is the departure of air tickets and hotels by travel agencies. It's not a group.

    FIT is the name of a product given by a travel agency, which generally refers to the combination of air ticket + hotel + small package. Since travel agencies have better air tickets and hotel resources, it is usually cheaper to combine them than to book them alone, which is also convenient for tourists who don't want to worry about everything themselves.

    Independent travel is not a group, because there is no ground tour service, you can freely choose the departure time to combine**.

    The state's policy of encouraging enterprises to "go global" has been gradually improved. In March 2009, the Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) promulgated the Extended Answer to the Measures for the Administration of Overseas Investment, which greatly simplified the approval process for overseas investment and provided enterprises with more policy incentives. For small and medium-sized enterprises, China has set up a "small and medium-sized enterprise international market development fund", built a platform for small and medium-sized enterprises to cooperate in overseas economic and trade cooperation, and also introduced overseas mergers and acquisitions policy.

    In addition, the tourism authorities also cooperate with the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Finance, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange and the China Banking Regulatory Commission to guide and promote Chinese tourism enterprises to invest overseas.

    At present, China's "going out" tourism enterprise business continues to expand to include travel agencies, hotels, restaurants and scenic spots, etc., and the trend of diversification is obvious, and the business area continues to expand to cover more than 30 countries and regions in Asia, Africa, Europe, North America, South America and Oceania.

    Although some of China's tourism enterprises have a certain scale and capital strength, compared with developed countries, even compared with India and other developing countries, China's tourism enterprises are still very low in degree of internationalization, and their core competitiveness is not strong.

    The low degree of internationalization of China's tourism industry is manifested in the lack of corporate brands with high market recognition, international leading proprietary technology and advanced management capabilities in China, as well as the formation of its own intellectual property rights and the construction of its own core competitive advantages, and the lack of innovation capabilities such as business models and product development; The bottleneck of insufficient international market knowledge and international talent pool, especially the lack of talents in cross-border mergers and acquisitions of tourism hidden shed enterprises; The positioning of their own market and products is relatively vague, and the demand for overseas investment is often not clear; There is also a big gap between China's tourism enterprises and international tourism groups in terms of core product development and distribution system construction.

    In the future, it will become more and more standardized, relying on service to win. Networking will become more and more important, and a strong network partner will be necessary. Just like self-driving tours are now relying more and more on platforms like Big Self-Driving Network.
