In reply to Polly. Yes, group touring has many disadvantages. That is a shame you didn't enjoy your tour. But it aint for everyone.

In reply to Beverley. Each holiday or trip we take is different so having the luxury to choose a solo trip or a group trip is ideal. I do a mixture of both - it depends on where I am going to.

This is a great article. I prefer solo travel because I love the freedom to go where I want when I want. I also always look for hidden gems, and tour groups will normally take you to touristy places.

I have travelled solo when I took a gap year to Australia and also travelled with a group tours. I now travel with my partner. Sometimes we will book group tours, depending on where we go. I certainly relate to many of these tips, I loved travelling solo and doing what I wanted, but sometimes it’s great to share those experiences with your loved one. What I love about group tours other than having it planned for me, but I love meeting new people along the way.

I have only done one group tour once many years ago – the lack of flexibility and how packed the program was is what put me off and I have not booked such type of trips ever since. I prefer having the freedom to choose what I would like to do and have more time to fully experience every place. Great list of the advantages of disadvantages of each option!

How interesting. I am travelling with a friend as I don’t think I could travel on my own. Not the first time.

Some helpful ideas! As I am a solo traveller I will certainly consider the choices available and the advantages and disadvantages of both styles of travelling.
