I’m cruising next week …. Not sure if I’ll have wifi onboard to write in my
blog !
Is there a difference between a vacation on land and a Land
Tour Package ?
There is !
If you’re just looking for a flight and a hotel, this can
easily be bought by a consumer “if” you know much of the inside scoop. For now, I am only going to mention … Buy
airfare & hotel, “direct” from the provider !
What I want to talk about is … A “Land Tour Package” …
Though transportation in getting there can vary, it might
be included in your package, or you may opt in reserving this on your own. It could even include flight between
countries (your destinations).
The place you reside is more than just booking a hotel
room. Could be an all-inclusive. Could be a resort. Could include several locations.
The package most often includes transfers to get you to
your accommodations. Or transfers from
city to city; country to country.
My even include tours.
Land Packages are available for all around the World. In the US, you may buy a package for New York City, for the Grand Canyon, for Disney. Packages can be just for adults or include the family, such as Adventures by Disney !
When traveling abroad, there are packages for luxury and
even economy. Packages for couples, for
singles, and again, families !
When you are ready to buy a Land Tour Package, this is an
even more so vacation, when you need an agent.
Agents buy these packages from “Land Tour Operators” ! There are millions of Tour Operators out
there. From local operators to National
Operators. From Name Brand operators to
operators no one has ever heard of !
Like cruises, you want to buy from Name Brands … And
avoid trying to choose a just anyone off the net ! This can be very dangerous for consumer who
think “travel is bought by the net” !
Remember, it’s only advertising that leads consumer in
believing that travel is to be bought on one’s own ! Never in the travel industry do you hear
these words ! So don’t make it up !
Just remember to call your agent when ready !
