A great way
for singles and solo travellers
to see the world is by escorted
travel. You book as a solo
traveler and meet up with dozens
of other people when you get to
your exotic destinations…you
never have to worry about being
in a strange and exciting land
all by yourself because you will
have the expertise of a trained
professional guide to show you
the sights and experience your
destination.
As a single traveler, you have
the luxury of being in a larger
group with like minded
travellers from all walks of
life. You don’t have to worry
about rail passes and car
rentals, just sit back and let
us show you the world as you
travel without your lifelong
friends and set out on a journey
that will add dozens of new
ones!
Ten (10) benefits of escorted
travel and coach tour…
1. It’s hassle-free
travel.
Escorted tours are a form of
tourism in which travellers are
escorted in a group to various
destinations, versus a
self-guided tour where the
tourist is on their own. They
are normally conducted by a tour
director who takes care of all
services from the beginning to
end of the tour. Details such as
flights, hotels, transportation,
transfers to the airport/hotel,
most meals and the sightseeing
events are taken care of.
Escorted tours are often
conducted by motor coach.
2. Those who wish to travel as
comfortably as possible—why
drive when you can ride?
On holiday, do you really want
the responsibility of driving in
unfamiliar roads and finding
your way around? (Don't forget
most cases wherein they drive on
the other side of the road!)
3. Itineraries are pre-planned.
Forget the bother of researching
on the must-see sights,
historical places and the
tedious time-management you need
to do when travelling on your
own. In a coach tour,
itineraries are pre-planned and
your valuable time is maximized
as you are taken to the most
important places at the comfort
of your coach.
4. It’s the best way to
experience a sightseeing tour,
with expert guides.
Because of the informative
commentaries and insights from
your guide, the potential to
learn about your destination is
far greater in an escorted
travel than on a self-drive or
rail journey
5. Great for budgeting during
travel.
You get a good idea of
the costs before leaving home.
Because it is a packaged tour,
you need not incur unexpected
costs. Most coach tours are
virtually all inclusive. By
prepaying much of your travel
costs in advance you can work
out your travel budget more
accurately.
6. Meet new people- Make new
friends.
Passengers on the coach tour
come from all over the world.
You are going to make lots of
interesting people and there’s a
great chance you’d make new
friends throughout the duration
of the tour.
7. It’s environment friendly!
According to the Ontario Motor
Coach Association (OMCA),
besides being the safest and
most energy-efficient transport
mode, the inter-city motor coach
is also the most environmentally
friendly form of transportation
based on fuel efficiency and
greenhouse gas emissions. Since
October 2006, all motor coaches
are required to burn “ultra-low
sulphur” diesel.
8. Assistance is ready and
available.
Guides are on hand all day to
give advice and information for
you to make the most of your
day. That beats asking around
among strangers.
9. It’s safer.
You get peace of mind knowing
that the drivers are experienced
on the roads being travelled and
that will never be stranded
without access to customer
service.
10. It’s more fun!
Coach Tour operators usually
think of ways to make the travel
experience as interesting,
entertaining and engaging as
possible
