What should we pay attention to when traveling with a group?

There aren't many newspapers that lie to you now, but you have to ask for specific details.

Specifically, you have to ask the travel agency yourself, what things are included, what are the tickets (whether it is just the first attraction tickets), what are the ones that need to be paid for by yourself, the grade of the hotel, whether the meal is included, this kind of is to ask clearly, more than a thousand people who go abroad should not be all-inclusive, there are many things at your own expense, I will tell you to understand, you calculate it yourself. But it's generally cheaper than going out on your own.

The ** in the newspaper is generally for publicity, and the lowest price advertisement is used to attract customers. It's not that there are not, but that there are not many low-cost groups, few locations, not necessarily if you go to just have a place to sign up directly, you can find a larger, more reputable travel agency to consult, the front desk staff will answer all kinds of questions for you. The tour group is a group ticket, so it is really much more affordable than individual tourists to go by themselves, what is included in the cost of the whole route, what is not included, you can go to consult, understand clearly before making a decision.

First, it is often easier for a tour group to save on entrance fees.

Second, the tour group is an old customer, **low.

Thirdly, air tickets are also discounted.

More than 1,000 yuan, one of them can also think about it, how can it be so cheap, there must be something not included, or the travel agency has a negative cost operation, and you must shop at your own expense to get back the cost!

There are many things to pay attention to when traveling abroad in a group1. First of all, we must determine the mode of travel of this tour, my experience is that if you are traveling abroad, it is best to report a tour group, because we do not know much about the human geography and environment of foreign countries, language, travel, accommodation, etc., and it is inconvenient to travel to a foreign country that is not familiar with life, and it is easy to have accidents. 2。

It is very important to choose a reputable travel agency, the quality of travel has a great relationship with travel agencies, so you must first find a number of travel agencies in various newspapers and periodicals to ask **, ask for an itinerary for comparison, because although the travel route is the same, but the cost of each travel agency is not the same as the specific attractions and promised conditions, sometimes there will be a big difference. 3。Preparation before travelBefore traveling, you should pay attention to the climate and temperature of the place you are going to, decide what clothes to bring, if you bring more changes in the summer, it is best to prepare to change a set every day, because you have to change hotels frequently during the trip, the clothes that are washed are not easy to dry, and the thicker clothes can only be taken home to wash if they are dirty.

4。Precautions during the trip Follow the tour guide closely with the group tour, abide by the meeting time stipulated by the tour guide at each scenic spot during the trip, do not be thrown away, pay attention to safety when visiting the scenic spots abroad, and abide by the precautions emphasized by the tour guide to avoid accidents.

Now many post-00s and post-90s young people like to travel, mainly to relieve work pressure, especially to go to the temple, mainly to experience that tranquility, so we must pay attention to the following three points when traveling

1: Some black tour guides swear and force tourists to shop.

Obviously, the customer is the emperor, but there have been many cases of tour guides abusing customers in China, and forcing them to shop to a specified amount, otherwise they will not let out the door of the shopping store! In order to attract people and earn commissions, the tour guides of some low-cost groups will slander tourists with the words "If you have money and don't shop, I despise you," or even threaten to close the small black house. Some tourists spend a lot of money to buy jade jewelry, come back to identify that it is not the pure natural material that the merchant said before buying, and the merchant will return the product in the name of deducting the handling fee when requesting the return, and handle the return at a low price for the tourist!

2: There is an age limit for low-cost tours, and a surcharge is required.

For many years, there has been an unwritten rule within the tourism industry that imposes an age surcharge on seniors over 60 and teenagers under 18. This phenomenon mostly appears in low-cost groups, such as domestic tours, Hong Kong-Macao connection tours, tourism products in Southeast Asia and other places. From the perspective of travel agencies, the impaired mobility of the elderly increases the risk of travel, and children and students have no spending power, which are one of the factors that affect the cost and increase the commission income.

3: Visiting shopping stores a lot of times during travel and staying for a long time.

Friends who often travel with groups must be very familiar with shopping stores! For example, souvenir shops, watch shops, jade shops, and silk shops, not to mention that the quality of things is not up to par, and you will not be let out if you don't go shopping for an hour in the shopping store. Originally, I was traveling with a happy mood, but I spent a lot of time visiting attractions to go to shopping stores.

For an 8-day, 7-night island hopping tour, you can have up to 7 shopping outlets, and the stay time is between hours!

Those who have experienced it know: it is hard to put it into words!

There are few attractions, more shopping, poor attitude, and I can't come back.

Most travel agencies have a shopping link, unless it is a high-end group, many travel agencies say that there is no compulsory consumption when doing publicity, saying that it is a pure play group. But when you are in the process of playing, you will find that many of them are not as the tour guide said, and the better tour guide may do some work, and even have a certain amount of mandatory. And to the shopping store, some tour guides are very polite to tourists who have bought things, but they will look at tourists who do not buy things, very cold, remember when they traveled to Hong Kong and Macao, because a group member did not buy anything, the face of the tour guide fell two feet long, very ugly.

This practice not only hurts tourists, but also affects the reputation of tour operators and tour guides. Unpalatable group meals are generally reported to be accompanied by group meals in the capital, but the quality of the group meals can be said to be really flattering. Some friends feel that if I quote an 80 group meal, it will definitely eat well, and you are wrong to think so.

Because generally speaking, 80 group meals are basically made according to the standard of 50-60, if you quote 60, it is very likely to be made according to 40. The extra money is not returned to the tourists, but goes into the pockets of the tour agency, which is why the group meal will be so unpalatable, after all, there is still a big difference between your expectations and reality. Think about it, if your tour price itself is low, can you still expect to eat better?

That's a fool's dream. Free attractions Generally speaking, many low-cost groups ** are very low, but there seem to be a lot of attractions, and many people think it is very cost-effective, after all, he doesn't know much about attractions. In fact, there are routines in this, and many travel agencies will add a lot of free attractions to their itinerary, such as an ancient town, a park, or a landmark building.

When he added a few more free attractions like this, he gave tourists the feeling that this group was very good, and there were many scenic spots to visit. But in fact, most of them don't need money, and only a few people collect money. At the same time, there are also some travel agencies that buy tickets for the cheapest attractions when signing up for a group.

For example, Suzhou Garden, many travel agencies will take tourists to the Lion Forest, not the Humble Administrator's Garden, although at the same time Suzhou Garden, the Humble Administrator's Garden is a 5A scenic spot, and it is more interesting than the Lion Forest. All in all, there are many routines with group tours, but the advantages brought by it are indeed incomparable with self-driving tours and other methods, after all, it saves time and effort, so this is also the necessity of its existence. For us, keeping our eyes open and avoiding the road is the most important thing, of course, we must know:

There's no such thing as a free lunch. You must be cautious when choosing the kind of super low-cost group, and you will definitely regret taking advantage of it.

I think there is a sentence that can vividly describe the current situation of tourists and tourists, which is called flies do not bite seamless eggs!

Low-cost groups", "shopping groups" such tour groups can exist, and the existence of a long time has not been short, even if some bad news continues to be exposed, but still many people go, if there is no interest, who wants to do such a thankless job?

First of all, for travel agencies, low-cost tours, the benefits are not at all in the tourists' little tour fee, but the high rebates given by those designated shopping places, travel agencies to do is to attract a large number of cheap tourists through low travel costs, and then bring these tourists to the set travel line Those who have "cooperation" businesses, merchants seek high profits by raising the goods, and then share some benefits of a travel agency, So as to achieve a win-win situation for travel agencies and merchants. This is also why there are often groups led by a certain tour guide to the shopping point, and the tourists do not shop to make the tour guide scold the news, and what is even more strange is that many times, these tourists actually do not talk back? I really don't know what they were thinking at the time, do they still feel embarrassed that they didn't buy anything?

And for tourists, the answer can be divided into these categories: the first is to play smart, I know that there is a cat in it as soon as I look at your travel**, and I must go shopping or something, but I don't buy it when I arrive, what can you do with me? As everyone knows, there are many routines for such tour groups!

The second is pure greed for cheapness, after looking at the travel ** and travel content, forget it, even if there may be shopping or something, buy a little yourself, it seems that you will not lose much? Well, you can give it a try. Dude, do you know which travel plans seem to be very good, and how much fun you can experience from them?

Hehe! The third is that some people who are not very well-informed and don't know what is greasy among them, for this, I can only say, alas, eat a trench and grow a wisdom. The last type of respondent thinks it is more common, that is, many tourists, following the wave of economic development, have become richer, and some behaviors that were previously unimaginable can also be implemented, such as tourism.

But for this aspect, let them plan a self-guided tour for themselves with little experience? Forget it, it's better to find a tour group, and to find a tour group, of course, is to find a cost-effective one, so.

By the way, I saw that there is a strange tourist who said other respondents, that is, tourists who really like shopping, this kind of tourist respondents have really encountered, there is no shortage of money in their hands, it is easy to be instigated, and things look pleasing to the eye and will be bought, but most of them will regret it when they calm down, and they want to return the goods, but they are also in the way of face, and in the end it is not done.

First, the budget for meals is low.

Although you don't have to worry about being unfamiliar with the place when you play with a group, especially if you go to some areas with different languages, you won't have to worry about communication problems, but there are still many restrictions on traveling with a group, and you have to go to the place they arrange to eat.

Generally speaking, the budget for the tour group is relatively low, and the level of natural meals is not too high, so it may not be delicious. Even if some groups will clearly tell you how much their meal will cost in the price list, in fact, the meal you eat may not be worth the price at all, so if you want to have a good meal, you should consider it carefully.

2. Itinerary arrangement: shopping stores.

I believe that everyone should be very familiar with this reason, in the itinerary of the group tour, often arrange a day or half a day for tourists to shop, you can take advantage of this time to buy some souvenirs, but the place of shopping is prescribed.

Generally, these shops are in cooperation with travel agencies and tour guides, and the tour guides bring tourists to the store, let them spend, and they can also get some benefits from the big blue stove, and the more tourists buy, the more they earn.

If you run into a black-hearted tour guide with a group tour, it will be even more uncomfortable, he will force you to buy some souvenirs that you don't want or don't think are worth the high price, and if you don't buy it, you will just scold it, so that the good mood of the trip is ruined.

3. Walk around and see the scenic spots.

Some low-cost tours seem complete in terms of the process, and you can go to all the attractions you want. But in fact, the tour guide will only take a very quick tour of the scenic area, just like a formulaic process, and will not take into account the experience of tourists.

Maybe you still want to go around this location, take a photo of ** to keep a souvenir, and the tour guide has already urged you to hurry to the next place. Not only can such a trip feel very tiring and seem like you're in a hurry all the time, but it's also hard to have fun.

Therefore, if you want to choose to go out with a tour group, you must do more strategies, research from various ways, and finally choose a tour group with a good reputation and clear process.
