FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is there a limit on group size what’s the minimum group size.

There is no limit on group size, and our minimum requirement for Tailor-Made tours is eight participants. We collaborate closely with our suppliers to customise the ideal private group tour, tailored to the specific needs of your group size.

Is Tailor-Made a travel agent?

As a tour operator, our Tailor-Made packages are touring-based. This means we have a minimum touring component (at least 50% of the entire trip), but can organise many other aspects of your package, including flights, insurance and more.

What touring options are available on a Tailor-Made tour?

• Fully Escorted: Enjoy comprehensive guidance with an English-speaking tour guide accompanying guests throughout the entire journey
• Partially Escorted: Offers a blend of independence and support, allowing guests to travel between locations on their own and meet with a tour guide at key points such as airports, stations, or hotels.

How much does a Tailor-Made tour cost?

Tailor-Made tours are private tours, and are priced as such. Your package price will depend on several factors: group size, destination, grade of accommodation, services and inclusions, time of year (high/low season), level of guided touring and more. As a general rule, private tours in some destinations can be two to three times the cost of a Classic group tour, but in some destinations (like India, Sri Lanka and Vietnam) the price difference between private and group tours is much smaller.

Generally, the cost per day of touring can start at the following rates. Seasonal surcharges may apply:

• Sri Lanka from  $295  per person, per day
• Japan from  $755  per person, per day
• Italy from  $1,165  per person, per day
• Vietnam from  $306  per person, per day

If you are considering private group touring in your chosen destination and would like the flexibility and bespoke nature of a Tailor-Made tour, reach out to us using the form. We’d love to customise the perfect tour for you.

Is there a minimum age for Tailor-Made tours?

No. Want to bring the grandkids along for a multi-generational family trip? We can accommodate all ages and customise your tour accordingly.

Can I customise an existing Inspiring Vacations tour?

Yes! We have created bespoke packages for customers by making some changes to one of our best-selling group tour packages. This might include combining tour itineraries, extending your stay and organising extra touring arrangements, changing the itinerary or upgrading the standard of accommodation and inclusions. You might like to combine your Tailor-Made private group touring arrangements with another Inspiring Vacations tour. Just ask us.

What is the lead time when booking a Tailor-Made Tour?

Depending on your requirements, our average turn-around time for a Tailor-Made quote is seven days. This can take longer if we need to negotiate particular arrangements with our local partners. Once you are satisfied with your package and quote, we kindly request that your deposit be paid within 48 hours to secure these arrangements.  

We cannot book your Tailor-Made tour within 60 days of departure date.

Is there a minimum duration?

Our Tailor-Made tours need to be a minimum of five nights.

What if I don’t know exactly what I want to do in the destination?

You’re in good hands. As a leading tour operator, our destination experts understand what makes the perfect tour. We can offer advice on itinerary, sightseeing and inclusions. Let us plan your dream tour.

Can I create a niche tour around a specific interest?

Yes! We have crafted many special interest Tailor-Made trips: history tours with specialist archaeologist guides, food and wine tours, diving tours in the Maldives, cycling adventures, rail-only journeys, Northern Lights hunting, and other special interest tours. You tell us what your ideal touring package looks like and we’ll work with you to create the perfect bucket list adventure for your group.

Custom Tours & Travel Guide

Custom Attractions & Landmarks Guide

Custom Tour Packages allow you to speak with an expert to plan your trip  rather than following a set itinerary already established by the tour operator. Where you go, how many days you spend there, and what kind of travel and accommodations you choose are entirely up to you. Your trip could include a private guide or guides , or you may want to guide yourself. Working under the guidance of a tour agency – some of which specialize only in custom tours -- you choose where you want to go and when, and the agency takes care of much or all of the logistics.

Customized tours have recently entered the mainstream of the tour business. Once mainly the province of the wealthy few who could afford to hire a tour agency to put together a trip just for them, custom tours are now widely offered by a whole range of tour companies, including those whose main business is offering guided group tours.

The effect is that custom tours – while generally more expensive than standard guided group tours for a variety of reasons – are no longer limited to just luxury tours that would bust the budget of many a traveler. With added competition, including that from more budget-oriented tour agencies, lower-cost custom tours are now much more readily available.

This isn’t to say that luxury custom tours are no longer predominant. They are, partially because budget travelers still tend to look to guided group tours first, where the economies of scale – and typically less work for the tour agencies – add up to lower prices. But the field is widening.

Who Are Good Candidates for Custom Tours?

Honeymooners . If you’re on your honeymoon, you may not wish to travel in the company of people you don’t know. A custom tour can easily be fashioned into a romantic tour of, say, Italy, or – for adventurous couples – a land-river tour of Southeast Asia or an African safari complete with private guide and luxury safari tents. 

Families . Custom tours are ideal for families who fear that their children will miss the company of other kids on group tours where adults predominate. Parents may also feel that other travelers will resent having children along on their group tour. With a custom tour, parents can emphasize quality family time together and make sure their kids’ interests are taken fully into account. Custom tours can also work well by adding grandparents to the generational mix, or perhaps by joining up with friends who have children the same age. 

Other small groups of friends or associates who want to travel together and follow the same itinerary, specific to them. 

Individuals or couples who like traveling by themselves but  don’t want to spend much time on logistics or who want expert advice in setting up their trip. Every custom tour should offer those two advantages.

Travelers who can’t find exactly what they want in a standard group guided tour . They’ve combed the brochures but none of the tours offered to their destination meet their needs in terms of timing or itinerary. With a custom tour, they can go where they want when they want. 

Travelers who want to go at their own pace and maintain more flexibility and spontaneity than guided group tours may offer. While many group tours offer some time to go off on your own, you may want more free time than that – and you still need to keep up (or slow down) to stay with the group. With a custom tour, you can choose your level of flexibility – for instance, you might opt for a rental car and arranged lodgings on a driving tour of Wales, keeping the rest of your day free to roam as you wish. (Custom tour agencies will provide suggested routes, sights, eating places, and other ideas, but you can make the final decisions on the spur of the moment when you’re there.)

Is a Custom Tour Right For You?

You know best what kind of traveler you are. If you enjoy making new friends or having lots of company on a trip, or feel more secure traveling with a group, you may be best suited for guided group tours. If you have very specific ideas about what you want to see or do on a trip, and can’t find guided group tours that fill the bill, a custom tour may be right for you.   

Many tour agencies listed on Stride specialize only in individualized custom (sometimes called "tailor made " or “bespoke”) tours. Many other tour companies will custom design a tour for you if you prefer that to a standard tour.

What to Look For if You're Considering a Custom Tour

- Expertise in the region of your destination

- Personalized service that ensures you get what you pay for

- A robust policy of assistance during your trip if needed

- Highly trained local guides if you want them

- Competitive prices if you’re on a budget

Scouting the tour landscape.

Begin your tour-creating journey by examining the offerings within your industry and locality. To craft a tour that resonates with your target audience, consider:

• The unique aspects of your specific area and expertise.
• How your tour can differentiate itself within the marketplace.

Knowing what your competitors are doing is crucial; ensure your offerings incorporate distinctive elements that elevate your tour above others.

Timing is Everything

Designing a tour requires careful planning around duration and scheduling, knowing the ebb and flow of your business operations. Consider:

• The frequency of departures.
• The feasible duration of the tour for an enjoyable guest experience.

Every aspect of your tour’s timing should contribute to both your guests’ satisfaction and your business’s viability.

Tailoring the Tour Experience

Give your guests autonomy with a map and let them personalize the trip with optional add-ons. The customizations could include:

• Exclusive access to particular attractions.
• Tailored equipment rentals for a seamless adventure.

Empowering guests to tailor their experience can heighten the appeal of your tour package.

Price Point Strategies

Attracting groups through discounted rates could be a wise approach. When setting your prices, consider:

Visual Vividness

Use compelling photos and videos to showcase the allure of your tour packages. Keep in mind:

• Including images that allow potential guests to envision themselves on the tour.
• Highlighting exhilarating moments and picturesque scenery in your promotional material.

Visuals play a pivotal role in captivating your audience and can significantly boost your marketing efforts.

Collaborative Local Alliances

Partnering with other local operators can broaden your package’s appeal. Integrating complimentary activities offers your guests:

• Added convenience.
• A richer, more diverse travel experience.

These alliances not only benefit the guest but can also generate repeat business for your enterprise.

Amplifying Your Tours

Let the unique selling points of your offerings shine in your promotional efforts. Aim to:

• Emphasize the unique experiences only your tour package can provide.
• Convey the value and convenience of opting for a pre-arranged package over separate bookings.

Effective promotion involves highlighting the unique benefits that come with your tour package, contributing to an effortless and memorable vacation for your guests.

Remember, as a tour operator, you have the power to shape extraordinary travel memories. Each step you take to refine your tour package bolsters your guests’ experience, ensuring that each adventure is not just a trip but a story worth telling.

Finding Strategic Partners to Expand Your Tour Offerings

Looking to broaden the scope of your tour packages? Consider joining forces with local accommodations, top-notch restaurants, and other experience providers who align with your business ethos. Let’s say you run a travel agency and want to offer an all-encompassing experience – imagine pairing your thrilling city tours with a cozy bed-and-breakfast and the finest dining in town.

Book a European Vacation Package

Plan a multi-stop European tour package with Tourlane. With 24 official languages and 44 countries, you’re probably wondering how to plan a Europe tour. With Tourlane, our specialized Travel Experts will book your flights, transfers, accommodations, and English-speaking guides in advance. All you need to do is turn up and enjoy! Europe is a rich, diverse continent, with a vast array of cultures and landscapes ranging from glaciers in Iceland to turquoise waters in the Mediteranean. Speak to one of our Travel Experts today and they’ll craft your perfect tailor-made itinerary based on your travel preferences.

Useful Information for Your Europe Tour Package

How many countries should i include in a european tour .

It depends on your travel tastes and preferences. If you wish to explore Italy or Greece, we recommend dedicating an entire trip to them, because of their size and geography. Countries like England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland are smaller and all in close proximity, so you could include four countries in this kind of Europe tour. Spain and Portugal are also a natural pairing and are well-connected.

How Many Days Are Required for a European Tour? 

To do a multi-stop tour of Europe, we recommend spending at least 10 days. If you wish to visit just one country, four days to one week is sufficient, depending on the country. Many American visitors wish to spend more than one week in Europe because of the flight time from the U.S. 

Is It Possible to Tour Europe by Train? 

Yes—traveling around Europe by train is a great way to tour the continent. Spain, Portugal, France, England, Scotland, and Italy are all connected by comfortable high-speed trains.

Europe Tour Packages: From Global Capitals to Glacial Wilderness

Nordic adventure is the siren call of Iceland—from the auroras of the Northern Lights to the glacial fields of Vatnajökull. Pull-on your winter coat and hop on a snowmobile to explore the floating icebergs of Jökulsárlón Lake, or hike the 200-foot cascade of Skógafoss waterfall. After a day of physical activity, rejuvenate with a visit to one of Iceland’s many geothermally-heated baths, and rebuild with some fresh and hearty Icelandic cuisine. Wander the streets of the charming capital Reykjavik to find a thriving cultural scene. 

In England, you’ll experience eccentricity and sophistication side by side, as you meet its friendly, style-conscious locals that love to crack a joke. This compact country is easy to navigate and quick to get around, and while you tour, you’ll see so much variety in a country that’s the size of New Mexico! From mysterious sarsens of Stonehenge to the pastoral lands of the Lake District National Park, from the ancient cities of York and Bath to the modern metropolises of Liverpool and Manchester, this historic nation is packed full of diversity. Glide from medieval castles to pulsating cities, and from Victorian manors to surfing beaches, all in the same morning! 

There’s something magical about Scotland. Perhaps it’s the epic landscapes, the age-old castles, and the single malt whiskey. Wherever you turn, you’ll encounter an enchanting quality that’ll have you returning year after year. Stroll down the Royal Mile in the elegant capital Edinburgh. Marvel at the otherworldly landscape at Glencoe, an extraordinary landform that resembles New Zealand. Go for a hike on the remote Isle of Skye to undercover idyllic, deserted white beaches. You’ll find it hard not to fall in love with the land of the Scots.  

France is all about appreciating the crème de la crème —or the best things in life. Whether it be cheese, wine, or great art, France is full of elegance and grandeur. After sampling the rich reds of Bordeaux, be sure to feast your eyes on the epic monuments of Paris—drink champagne at the Eiffel Tower, before taking a stroll around the magical gardens of Versailles. Delight in the peaceful Mediterranean waters of the French Riviera, after a portion of fresh oysters on the oceanfront. Plan a trip to France to experience this storied nation.

Home to more UNESCO World Heritage sites than any other nation, as well as the world’s most popular cuisine, there is so much to recommend Italy. A meal of a lifetime is just another lunch for Italians, and epic ruins are part of the landscape wherever you turn. Explore walled medieval cities and hunt truffles in Tuscany. Catch seafood on the Sicilian coast after hiking up Mount Etna, the island’s active volcano. Admire Michaelangeo’s David and enjoy succulent steak in Florence. Wherever your tastes and preferences take you, a tour of Italy will stay with you for a lifetime. 

Irish culture is celebrated throughout the world, and for good reason. Here, the traditions are living and all-encompassing. Visit medieval castles in Cork, and enjoy a plate of Boxty Pancakes in Dublin. Explore the pristine green countryside, and travel the Wild Atlantic Way to see the hits of the west coast, from the Cliffs of Moher to the Connemara National Park. As you take in the beauty of the “Emerald Isle”—home to both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland—be sure to make time for a pint of Guinness and friendly locals in a local pub.   Less

Go Vietnam Tours believes that going to a new place and spending time there is part of the enjoyment! Go Vietnam Tours supports local transportation and traditional methods of Vietnam tour packages whenever feasible, frequently with very little ecological impact, assisting local companies, and supplying travelers with a more immersive experience. You can find various transportations to traveling based on your itinerary in Vietnam, such as:

Sleeper train overnight

Traveling through Vietnam by overnight sleeper train is an amusing way to see the country. Socialize with other travelers as well as take a seat by a window and observe the scenery.

Take a while to wave to local residents as you ride across paddy fields, simple cities and towns in the countryside in Vietnam.

These 3 wheeled vehicles are an unusual but great experience to zip around the sights on vacation to Vietnam.

With Go Vietnam Tours, travel is a little bit unique. We aim to provide visitors with an authentic experience they won't soon forget with the best Vietnam tour packages, therefore we make an effort to maintain as many distinctive and traditional accommodations as we can. If you travel with us to Vietnam, you might stay in one of the following:

Overnight boat

A really Vietnamese experience, sleeping on a boat in Halong Bay, deserves to be appreciated. Enjoying the breathtaking views of the surrounding limestone karst landscape as you go off to sleep is the coolest way to savor a vacation in Vietnam.

On a delightful homestay, get to know the Vietnamese way of life. Make friends with your hosts and neighbors while learning about new cuisines, languages, Vietnam guided tours and traditions.

If you're looking for a fantastic vacation destination in Southeast Asia, Vietnam should be at the top of your list. With its stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage, Vietnam tour packages have something to offer every traveler. Vietnam, which occupies a long and narrow section of the Indochina peninsula, borders China, Laos, and Cambodia. Mountains can be found throughout most of Vietnam, particularly in the North and Central Highlands. The majority of the people in Vietnam live in low-lying areas with easy infrastructure and public and fertile agricultural land. Vietnam frequently experiences flooding because of the Mekong, one of the world's 12 major rivers. The Mekong Delta and nearby areas have experienced less flooding thanks to the canal and dike system's ability to distribute floodwater.

Early History

The area that is now Vietnam has been inhabited since the beginning of time. According to archaeological discoveries, organized communities started to emerge as early as the first millennium BC. Up until the Chinese invasion in 111 BC, which caused the societies of Vietnam and China to converge, early society was mostly focused on agriculture and feudalism, with numerous dynasties ruling over different regions of Vietnam. For hundreds of years, the region was ruled by various Chinese dynasties, but in 905, the Vietnamese gained independence as a result of uprisings. Vietnam entered an era of independence in 938, marking the end of this period of Chinese imperial rule.

Recent History

French colonialists who took over Vietnam following the Sino-French War of 1884 and 1885 had an influence on it during the 19th century. Parts of Vietnam were included in French Indochina and Cambodia, and Laos which was created in 1887. First, after Vietnamese troops beat French forces in the Indochina War in 1954, the French were finally forced to give up control of the internal independence movements they had long sought to stifle. Vietnam was split up after this conflict, with separate governments in the north (headed by Ho Chi Minh) and the south (led by Ngo Dinh Diem, with American support).

The second Indochina War caused widespread destruction and upheaval for the Vietnamese people, and as a result, a large number of individuals left Vietnam in search of sanctuary in other parts of the world. Vietnam's economy had almost completely collapsed by the 1980s, which prompted additional waves of emigration from Vietnam. Vietnam has lately profited from the free economy that was established in 1986. Vietnam's economy is still growing, with agricultural and manufacturing serving as the foundation and the tour operators also making a contribution. Despite the fact that many Vietnamese people are living in poverty, literacy rates have increased significantly.

While Vietnam's history has been marked by conflict and hardship, the country has made significant strides in recent years towards economic growth and development. With a booming tourism industry and a wide range of Vietnam tour packages to choose from, travelers from all over the world are discovering the beauty and charm of this Indochina gem.

Vietnamese markets and small businesses are a good mix of the intriguing; the finest choices include handicrafts, art, and and clothing, which can be explored through Vietnam tour packages.

To be sure that you can carry particular things back into your place of origin, it is a good idea to verify with your local customs officers. In general, quarantine regulations in Australia and New Zealand are strict.

1. Tailored Clothing

One of the best places on the planet to find high-quality custom apparel is Hoi An. Locate a tailor, select your fabrics, get fitted, then come back later to pick up your bespoke clothing.

2. Hilltribe Handicrafts

Some of the hill tribes during the Vietnam tour produce great woven jewelry, apparel, and bags that make thoughtful gifts for family and friends back home.

Vietnamese coffee is among the greatest in the world, and it comes from one of the biggest exporters in the world. Why not bring a little bit of Vietnam's tour home with you if you are a coffee habitué?

4. Lacquerware

Vietnamese lacquer art is created through a labor-intensive, lengthy process that yields a stunning, smooth, and polished finish that covers everything from bowls to jewelry boxes and paintings. Although those are not the low-priced keepsakes, genuine lacquer work is pricey but worth while during Vietnam tour packages.

Halong Bay in the early morning is unlike anything else. Hundreds of enormous karst structures may be seen rising above the boat as the mists dissipate. It feels like you are waking up in a watercolor painting of a mystical place in the beautiful morning light. One of the best ways to experience the beauty of Halong Bay in Vietnam is through well-designed Vietnam vacation packages that cater to your interests and preferences.

When visiting the capital of Vietnam through Vietnam tour packages, Hanoi, the phrase "motorcycle" comes up frequently. It's insane and chaotic, but it manages to work. It is preferable to take in this exotic vista from a rooftop cafe. Watch the uproar below as you place another coffee order.

The Mekong Delta is a must see attraction in Vietnam tour packages. Some of the friendliest people on earth reside in this wide region of floating marketplaces, emerald rice paddies, and verdant islands. For a first-hand view of life in the Delta and to get to know your neighbors, set sail for one of the sleeping islands.

Vietnam vacation packages offer an excellent opportunity to explore the vibrant villages of Vietnam's minority groups such as the Zay and the Blue and Black H'mong, amid the highlands. Due to the area's isolation, an overnight hike where you stay with a local family is a great way to explore it. 

Quy Nhon is a charming seaside off the major tourist route. Even a driving trip here is worthwhile. Islands, lagoons, and dunes gradually give way to paddy fields and large plantations as the route follows rocky slopes plunging into the South China Sea. A place worth going when thinking about a Vietnam tour package.

Hue is a city for heritage aficionados since it is crammed with imperial monuments. Prior to channeling your internal emperor and having a dragonboat journey down the Perfume River, discover the Citadel and its abandoned Forbidden Purple City.

Boot manufacturers, tailors, and artisans call this shopping heaven home more than you could possibly visit in a lifetime. Hire a bicycle and tour the Old Town while you wait for your suit to be constructed; the streets are gloriously car-free.

Most people still refer to HCMC as Saigon, and it is a busy metropolis. It moves quickly, is thrilling, and has wonderful sights. Skyscrapers, cathedrals, and markets all coexist in a heady mingling of traditional, colonial, and modern architecture.

The hustle and bustle of Hanoi seems a million miles away in Mai Chau. The tranquil atmosphere is aided by misty mountains and verdant rice fields. Be sure to keep an eye out for the traditional textiles produced by the local White Thai population during Vietnam tour packages.

Known as the "honeymoon capital" of Vietnam, is perpetually the must-going place in the spring. Discover the bizarre local artists, take in the French-inspired ambiance, and explore the nearby lakes, waterfalls, and forests. Fantastic!

The Chinese, Khmer, French, and American civilizations have all had a different impact on Vietnam's ancient culture over hundreds of years, which may be centuries old. Whether they hail from remote villages or live in bustling metropolises, family and community connections are important to the majority of Vietnamese people. The majority of festivals and holidays are spent with the extended family, where rituals are performed, special foods are enjoyed, symbolic presents are exchanged, and ancestors are honored. Although there are certainly a lot of Catholics in Vietnam, the majority of Vietnamese practice a fascinating blend of Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism. When the Vietnam War brought hardships in the 1960s and 1970s, the majority of Vietnamese people desired to integrate into society, live optimistically and modestly. Let's experience the rich cultural heritage of Vietnam through its festivals, rituals, and special foods with the help of Vietnam tour packages.

Go Vietnam Tours takes every precaution to make sure that tours are secure, enjoyable, and pleasant for everyone. We take the health and safety of our travelers during Vietnam tour packages seriously. We advise all customers to get the most recent information prior to departure from their local government or national travel advisory agency.

How to Create a Tour Package in 6 Simple Steps

By Blake Ng — 26 Nov 2018

distribution   marketing   operations   tour operator

Updated April 2022 – As a tour company, you may be seeking effective ways on how to create a tour package that’s enticing for your customers. A packaged tour combines elements that would be a hassle to coordinate separately, such as transport, attractions, meals, and entertainment. With the ease of a tour package, these elements can be easily bought as one and provides convenience for your customers.

Travelers looking for a hassle-free trip usually seek an all-inclusive tour package. It’s an enticing product to promote and include within your marketing strategy and can help you boost your bookings. Most travelers would usually seek a travel agency to provide them with the best packages. However, if you could set up tour packages yourself, you may be able to attract customers to book packages through you directly.

What do customers look for in a tour package?

When understanding the first steps on how to create a tour package, you need to understand your target audience. What is it that they prioritize? Is it affordable airfare? Easy car rental? Flexible cancellation policies? or a particular destination that can cater for their entire trip? Understanding your target audience is key to building enticing tour packages.

Once you’ve nailed your tourism market research, make it easy for your website visitor to identify the different types of tours you offer.

Points to outline in your descriptions should include:

• Types of tours (day tours, adventure tours, family-friendly getaways, group tours, sightseeing, etc.)
• The estimated total cost and budget per guest or booking
• The total duration of the vacation package
• The different travel products included (transportation, tours, activities, etc)
• Age range. Are there any age limitations?

The price of your products should be set 12 months in advance, and it should include all your costs – product development, entry and guide fees, meals, maintenance, and marketing.

If you want to partner with other travel companies (which you totally should), make sure that

• Everyone has a good profit margin but is still able to provide competitive prices
• You have allowed for unexpected costs
• You have determined product break-even points

It would also be smart to ask everyone involved to promote and sell the package.

If you want to reduce your package price, remember not to compromise quality. It should be your last option. Consider other strategies that will make your tours more competitive.

2. Commission

Depending on the market you’re targeting, you will need to consider the commission you pay your agents. It differs from 10-30% depending on the type of agent involved.

If your market is overseas, you’ll likely be dealing with inbound tour providers, and they will expect a commission of 25-30%.

Want to learn more about agent commission rates and how to calculate commission breakdowns? Click here .

3. Legal Implications

When creating a tour package, you need to provide explicit conditions of the sale of the tour package in order to avoid any confusion. Tour wholesalers and retail travel agents must:

• Provide explicit conditions of sale
• Be selective with product endorsements

You don’t want to be involved in a customer complaint about your failure to deliver or misleading advertising.

It’s recommended that you work closely with a lawyer in order to develop the right language for your tour package. Since travel agents will need these legal conditions in place before they can resell your product, it’s best you have your terms and conditions prepared before promoting your tour packages.

4. Travel packages & promotion

How you distribute your package will determine your success. You should conduct product and package familiarisations for retail agents, wholesalers, and sample target markets.

Packaging for overseas:

Contact distributors who understand international packages and markets. You may not even need to create a package, because the international tour operator may bundle a range of products, including yours, for a wholesaler. Remember to screen your overseas resellers, too.

Packaging for domestic markets:

Trialing domestic markets before going international is probably the safer option when first starting out. It’s a more cost-effective and less complicated option.

You can start by targeting the following groups:

• Clubs and associations members (particularly those that cater to retirees)
• Schools and educational institutions (if your product has educational content, create an excursion package)
• Families (they will want the value for money)

Testing the waters within your local travel industry will also generally produce faster results.

Remember to include special interest groups and individuals in your marketing – for example, sports, festivals, and arts.

5. Complementary Product Packaging

Partnering with other tour operators who offer complementary products is a smart way to reduce your promotion costs while making your package more appealing.

For example, you can offer:

• A range of products from an area to specific niches with related interests
• A selection of products in a destination where a customer can create personalized experiences

Last, but certainly not least, is timing. When you set your availability, remember to consider your high season and the popular time of year that your target markets come by. Sometimes, however, tour packages can be the perfect answer to your off-peak season too.

The return on your investment will be gradual, so don’t expect an immediate return. Profits can take up to 2-3 years but can be achieved earlier if you get your distribution strategy right.

You can do things to speed up the process, like choose online booking software that allows agents to check your availability and book immediately. Make sure it isn’t commission-based so it doesn’t eat into your profits.

7 Day Southwest National Parks Grand Canyon Camping Tour

I had a great time on the 7 day Southwest Highlights Tour. Our group of 12 was a mix of couples, friends and solo travellers (half camping, half in hotel lodging) who bonded over the course of the week to become a really tight group who had a lot of fun together. We had Dylan as our guide and he was excellent: easygoing and friendly, a great DJ for the long van rides, with an endless supply of hilarious stories and suggestions to make the most of the trip. He went above and beyond, with group dinners in beautiful locations, after dark campfires and a sunrise walk at the Grand Canyon for those who wanted to be up early on the last day! The camping experience was great: good equipment, nice campsites for most stops and plenty of food options. The national parks visited are just beautiful - you think you've seen the best, and then you visit the next one and it's equally beautiful, but in completely different way. Bryce Canyon and Antelope Canyon were real highlights for me, probably because I didn't know anything about them in advance and was just blown away. Thanks again to Dylan and to Bindlestiff!

What people love about Fully Guided Tours in USA

We thoroughly enjoyed the 7-day tour of the US southwest . We love the destinations included in the tour, every place we visited is on our bucket list. I wanted to pinch myself every day that I visited those iconic and beautiful places as shown in my photos below. We enjoyed all the extra, optional experiences that were suggested by the tour guide. They added more fun to the tour. The Hummer tour in Moab, Utah was one of the optional experiences and it was a blast! Not only it’s fun, you get to see the amazing scenery during the sunset. One previous review mentioned he or she was forced to participate in the Navajo taco dinner in Monument Valley. That comment is not true. You have a choice not to do that and the guide can make a different arrangement for you. The optional Navajo taco dinner is one of the highlights of the tour that we will remember for a long time. It would be a shame not to have this cultural experience when you get to meet Navajo people when you are in the Navajo Nation! Our tour guide, John did a fantastic job. He was full of enthusiasm and energy. He kept the tour well organized and always provided information we needed. We highly recommend the tour.

Mesmerizing Grand Tetons! I've been with Bindlestiff before and they did not disappoint the second time! Grand Tetons was mesmerizing and I am so glad I got this done through Bindlestiff!

Tour Package

Package holidays, popularly known as a tour package or simply the word ‘tour’ in the travel and tourism industry refers either to a package tour escorted or not escorted by the tourist guide.

When we say tour package, it means a pre-arrangement, prepaid trip that combines two or more travel components like airfare, airport transfer, accommodation, and other services . Practically, to define the tour package concept is complex one rather understand.

Holloway defines a tour package as “a total tourism product consisting of transportation from the market area to the destination, accommodation at the destination and recreational activities promoted by the tourists.”

According to Gregorg “a tour package is advertised journey including specific features, arranged and promoted with tour literature by a tour operator and paid for in full by the tourists  before starting the tour.”

Technically, a package tour/tour package is a total tourism product as it generally includes transport from the origin place to the destination, accommodation at an en route place or at the destination and other recreational or travel services. These components are purchased by an individual, firm or company called the ‘ tour operator ‘. He combines all the travel components in a package and sells them at all-inclusive prices to the clients.

History of Tour Package

The term ‘tour’ was in vogue as early as 1670. The Britishers traveled to widen their knowledge of the continent, especially to study the culture and social life. This practice was gradually adopted by other lovers of cultural centers.

The result of the process was that many European historic and cultural centers were opened to the British tourist. By the early 1730’s the small fishing resorts around the British coast begin to attract tourists seeking to their diseases by drinking the sea-water or by immersing themselves in it.

The introduction of a rail link between the major centers in 1830, had a profound impact on the pleasure travelers for the first time. Many entrepreneurs began to inspire rail travel by organizing excursions for the public at discounted offers.

However, to ‘the origin of package tour’ the credit goes to Mr. Thomas Cook in 1855 , Cook, extended his business operation to different countries by introducing the first ‘ inclusive tour ‘ to Paris.

Mr. Cook put together all the components of tourism products and sold them as ‘inclusive tour’ to the tourists. His pre-packaged tour inspired other tour organizations in the travel industry to organize similar tours to all parts of the globe.

Most of Cook’s tours were a linear tour i.e., the person went from place to place on a single destination. Basically, Mr. Cook developed the concept of ‘grand tour and escorted tour’, the concept which is still used.

Incidentally, World War II has tremendously developed the package tour concept because of the following reasons:

• Social and Economic Conditions
• Increase in Aircrafts
• Marketing Conditions
• Legal Requirements
• Integration took place.

Today, package tours are a vital segment of the world’s travel and tourism industry. According to WTTC, the package tour sales generate $25 billion annually in the United States, $18 billion in Europe, $19 billion in Britain, and $21 billion in Asia. Today tour sales represented 50 percent of all leisure travel sales and 35 percent of all travel agency revenues.

Types of Tour Packages

A travel agency/tour operator deals with variety of ‘tour packages,’ catering to the diverse needs of tourists such as adventure, beach, architecture, cultural, business, conference, incentive tours, ayurvedic packages, Buddhist, religious, incentive tour, special interest tours, cruise tour group tour, educational tour, heritage, monuments, wildlife lovers, etc. These are broadly classified into five categories :

• Independent Tours
• Escorted Tours

Hosted Tours

• Incentives Travel/Tours

Freedom Tours

Independent tour.

Independent tours are prepared/formulated for those tourists who want to travel independently. The components of such tours are air travel, air transfer, accommodation, travel documents, sightseeing, boat riding, entertainment, and other travel services.

However, in some cases, the tourists are free to purchase every single component separately. Thus, this type of tour provides the tourists considerable freedom to plan the activities according to their own choice.

An independent tour may or may not be an all-inclusive tour. Therefore, tour price varies depending on the type of air travel, air transfer, accommodation and is inclusive of other tour components. The foreign independent travel (FITs) and domestic independent travel (DITs) are examples of an independent tour.

Escorted Tour

When a travel agency includes the services of a well educated and trained tour manager in its package, the tour is called an escorted tour. Basically, escorted tours are meant for those travelers who are planning to visit a foreign country first time.

The escort’s responsibilities and duties are to provide comprehensive information and assistance to the group or individual traveler, at the origin, en route and the destination place. The excursion tours are the example of escorted tours.

A hosted tour means when an agency utilizes the services of another agency at a particular destination. Suppose a group of French tourists is coming to India. When the group arrives in India, they are greeted at the airports by TCI, which assists them in clearing their baggage and transfer them to the hotel.

Their tour-host (TCI) is available to offer device and information about the local attractions and entertainment. Further, when the group arrives at another designation in India, a different travel agency greets them at each tourist spot. Thus, a hosted tour provides the tourists maximum level of pre-arranged and personalized services.

Incentives Travel/Tour

It is a motivational programme or a fully paid holiday which is given to the employees by the enterprises as a reward. Mostly in medium and large-scale companies and usually too distant destinations to spur them in maintaining their track record, to increase output, improve the image and moreover to earn the long period loyalty of the employees.

There are a number of the other packages offered by a tour company such as a custom tour an excursion tour, an adventure, and special interest package tours.

Freedom tours are becoming very popular these days among the working class. These tours are designed as per the choice of tourists. The tourist is free to choose and plan how they want to travel and enjoy their holidays. These types of tours are meant for that kind of people who like to decide how, when, and where to travel.

This tourist may an individual, family, group holidays for families and group travel for business. These tours are promoted and developed by the ORBIT.

Components Of Tour Package

What is to be included in a package tour largely depends and varies from one tour organization to another, or from the one country to another, or from one destination to another and from one market to another market. But there are certain well-defined travel services which always turn a part of a package tour irrespective of the tour operator/travel agency, destination and even the market condition.

If we study and see the package tours offered by Thomas Cook and Sons Ltd., Cox and King Ltd., and other international travel companies, we find that a package tour has two major components. Therefore, a standard package tour has two basic components namely:

• Ground Arrangements

Travel industry experience has shown that the first component, i.e. ‘Travel’ is directly bought by the agency from the principal providers like airlines and transport operators and for ground arrangement, the travel agency management asks the ground operators.

The reason behind buying ground arrangement from a handling agency is that it represents as a ground operator at a particular destination for the numerous tour organizations. Secondly, the price offered by it are much lower than an individual agency obtain. Thirdly, it is very difficult to get credit from the supplier and finally, it ensures professional travel services.

Factor Affecting the Tour Package Formulation

Generally, the business of package tours involves great risk, high breakeven, high-quality product, and competitive prices. Therefore, the tour management requires in-depth tour planning and market survey. However, before a tour is designed the tour manager should take into consideration certain factors which are crucial in the formulation process.

These factors have a profound impact on the tourist’s satisfaction. The main factors are:

• Purpose of Tour
• Choice of Destinations
• Tourist Budget
• Legal Requirement
• Types of Tourist Accommodation

Tour Package Design and Selection Process

The quality of a package tour is entirely based on the above factors. Essentially, to design/formulate a travel product, the tour manager has to take the biggest responsibility, intuitiveness, imagination, and innovation coupled with a lot of business activities which range from finding new exotic destinations and planning, organizing or promoting such tour.

The following are the main stages in the tour design and selection process:

1. Initial Research

(i) the destination research.

The decision to develop and formulate a new package is a multi-stage process that involves various positive and negative points/steps. Normally, the idea for a new product comes either from the tour executive within the company due to a review of the questionnaire completed by the previous tour members because of the political, economic and social development in a particular area.

When a tour manager see that a large number of old clients are interested in taking a trip to particular destinations, naturally, those destinations become the nucleus of a new ‘tour concept’.

(ii) Market Research

Since tour package is a complete tourism product, obviously, before formulating/designing this product, market research needs to be analyzed and assessed in a systematic manner. Market  research provides us the answer to the following questions:

• What is the size of the tourism market?
• Who are the existing clients?
• Where do they live?
• Who will be their potential buyers?
• Who are their competitors – their strategy and area of business leisure?
• How many tourist ones want to cater?
• What price will the clients accept?
• What facilities are available and required?
• What are the constraints viz., license, permission, finance, restrictions, taxes, and others?

Once we know the basic components of the package tour, distribution channels, market conditions, constraints in the tourism market, we can develop the marketing strategy. It enables the smooth functioning of the agency and also offers a clear picture of the tour programme. Practically, market research is conducted by the private tour companies/ private tourism enterprises in order to penetrate the market.

2. Itinerary Preparation

By itinerary one means the designing of a programme which one wants to sell and it includes destinations, stopping points, number of days and the travel services that are to be included in the programme. Whether it is a lean season or an offseason, escorted or not escorted, consumer-oriented or readymade tour programme, the itinerary is prepared to identify the origin, destinations, stopping points, accommodations, sightseeing and other travel services on travelers’ trip.

3. Handling Agency or Destination Company

The appointment of handling agency not only ensure excellent travel services to the tourist but also make the operation smooth and profitable. It is a matter of great significance as the success of travel business largely depends upon the clients are actually taken care of during the tour.

It is a positive match between the promised services and tourist’s actual experiences or feelings. Thus, the tour operator should consider the experience of the handling travel agency in the business, the area of operation, reputation, credibility, professional staff, credit facilities and the competitive price in appointing a handling agency.

4. Negotiation

It is another important management decision area in tour designing and planning. Once the decision has been made regarding the destination’s concerning their date, duration and number of clients to be carried during the trip, the tour management starts negotiations with the principals’ suppliers for a normal contract.

Negotiation means talk between the travel companies and the principal suppliers for the terms, conditions, and prices of the components of a tour package. When both parties are satisfied, it leads to a formal or informal contract between them. The tour company negotiates with the following tour vendors/suppliers:

• Accommodation
• Transport Operations- Rail and Road
• Ground Operators
• Cruise Companies
• Car Rental Companies
• The overseas representatives
• Ancillary Service Organizations

5. Coasting and Pricing a Package Tour

The cost of a package tour encompasses the air ticket, the hotel room, car rental, entertainment charges, administrative costs, promotional costs, and other travel services. The confidential tariff helps the travel company in preparing the cost sheet which will enable the concern to determine its price strategy.

Tour pricing is a big factor in the success of the company’s tour programme. The price of a package tour is, whether it is an escorted, independent or hosted the tour, often lower than the combined costs of the same components purchased separately from the principals. However, the purchase price of a travel product is based on three factors: Cost, competition, and demand.

Every tour package sold by a vendor has a quantifiable cost. To produce profit the price paid by the tourists must be greater than the agency’s cost.

6. Tour Brochure

The tour package is an intangible product which has to be purchased by the tourists/clients without inspection and sometimes even without adequate knowledge. In these circumstances, the brochure becomes the principal instrument to perform the major tasks to inform the clients about the products and to pursue them to purchase it.

Designing, printing, and distributions of tour brochures require necessary skills and knowledge about the components of the tour package. Basically, in the era of specialization and intense competition, tour brochure creates awareness and provides the description of the holiday programme.

Thus, tour management should consider various pros and cons while preparing a tour brochure. A brochure should contain the following information:

• Name of the Travel Company
• Means of transport
• Details about destinations
• Accommodation, types, location, meals
• Name of the overseas representative
• Duration of each tour
• Booking, reservation and cancellation conditions
• Details of other services – insurance, currency, entertainmentTravel documents required
• Details of price

7. Development of Reservation System

The next step in tour formulation process is reservation system. The agency management in order to put a package into operation must develop and implement a scientific reservation system. The system depends on whether the reservation is to be handled manually or with a computer working on the distribution method.

Whatever method the agency may adopt, the agency management should always keep in mind the sole objective of the reservation system.

8. Marketing of Tour Package

Once a tour package is ready, travel agency management has to make a careful decision regarding promotion and marketing of the particular package tour. The basic objective of management is to make a tour package widely known to make it more and more attractive.

To achieve these objectives, the management must consider the budget available, promotion mix, potential market, easiest and most effective media, campaigning through the international, regional or the public/private sector etc.

The promotion of a package tour means increasing its sales potential and creating an awareness of the existing and potential markets. The following methods are commonly used to promote package tours:

• Middlemen – Retail Travel Agents, GSA, consolidators
• Familiarization tours
• Building Brand Loyalty
• Encouraging Potential Buyers
• Competitive Market

9. Tour Handling/Actual Tour Operation

After the successful marketing and achieving target sales, the next and final step in the process of tour designing is tour handling. It means an actual operation of tours, which generally includes administrative work and passenger handling like maintaining reservations, handling deposits, sending advice to ground operators, arranging travel representation, analyzing the feedback received from clients/escorts/ground operator and so on.

All this is not an easy task. At every stage, one has to face different types of queries and problems due to lack of coordination and communication.

Significances of Tour Package

Tour package is beneficial to travel companies, travelers, destinations and other organizations which are directly or indirectly involved in the tourism business. The main benefits are:

• Increase the seasonality of a destination cost/price
• Earn foreign currency
• Better quality of products professional services
• Wide-variety of the tour package
• Provide bulk business to organizers

Shakira Joins Bizarrap for Surprise Coachella Performance, Announces Tour for Late 2024

Coachella ’s first weekend has been full of surprises, and Bizarrap ‘s evening set on Friday was no exception as the high-energy DJ set got an assist from Shakira — where she announced she’ll be touring later this year.

The pair performed their hits “La Fuerte” and “BZRP Music Sessions, Vol. 53.”

“Finally we’re going on tour — starting here, in November!” she shouted. “Starting here, this November, in this city! Can’t wait!”

Reports earlier this year said that Shakira’s team had pushed hard for a headlining slot for the singer at this year’s festival, which was declined. At the very least, her appearance during Biza’s set confirmed there wasn’t bad blood between Shakira and the festival as the Colombian superstar soared through the high-energy performance. Biza and Shakira caused a lot of excitement with the release of “Vol. 53,” or the 53rd song in a YouTube series — “BZRP Music Sessions” — produced by the Argentinian star. They’ve performed it on the Latin Grammys and the “Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”

Coachella will continue through Friday night with a final performance from headlining artist, Lana Del Rey. The weekend will continue with Saturday headliner, Tyler, the Creator, and a final closing set with Doja Cat on Sunday.

Did any LIV Golf players make Masters cut? Yep. In fact, one of them is tied for the lead.

Editor's note: Check out complete coverage of the Masters here , including the leaderboard, highlights and more.

The 2024 Masters got underway Thursday with 13 LIV Golf players in the field of 89, led by defending champion Jon Rahm , who joined the Saudi-funded tour in December 2023.

By Friday evening, all but five still remained in the field .

Rahm, Bryson DeChambeau and Phil Mickelson are among eight LIV golfers that made the cut line at 6-over and will be playing into the weekend at Augusta National.

DeChambeau is tied atop the leaderboard with fellow Americans Scottie Scheffler and Max Homa, who all are 6-under through two rounds. DeChambeau, who joined LIV Golf in June 2022, came out the gate strong on day one and hit eight birdies and one bogey in the first round. On Friday, he shot a 1-over 73 with three birdies and four bogeys.

The remaining LIV golfers will take a lot of championship experience into the final two rounds — they've won a collective five Masters titles between the eight of them. DeChambeau is in pursuit of his first Green Jacket. His best showing was at the 2016 Masters when he finished tied for 21st place. 

Here's how every LIV player did in the first two days of the 2024 Masters:

Which LIV golfers made the cut at the 2024 Masters?

Defending champion Jon Rahm's repeat hopes are still (technically) alive after he squeaked by and finished one stroke above the cut line at 5-over. Here's all the LIV golfers that made the cut:

• Bryson DeChambeau (-6)
• Cameron Smith (-1)
• Patrick Reed (E)
• Brooks Koepka (+2)
• Tyrrell Hatton (+2)
• Phil Mickelson (+4)
• Joaquin Niemann (+4)
• Jon Rahm (+5)

Which LIV golfers missed the cut at the 2024 Masters?

Five LIV golfers didn't make the cut, which was set at 6-over on Friday:

• Sergio Garcia (+7)
• Bubba Watson (+10)
• Charl Schwartzel (+11)
• Dustin Johnson (+13)
• Adrian Meronk (+14)

Was Greg Norman at the 2024 Masters?

Yes. LIV Golf's top executive, Greg Norman , a two-time major winner who finished as a runner-up at the Masters three times (1986, 1987, 1996), was on hand at Augusta National to cheer on all LIV participants.

"I’m here because we have 13 players that won 10 Masters between them," Norman  told the Washington Post on Wednesday. "So I’m here just to support them, do the best I can to show them, 'Hey, you know, the boss is here rooting for you.'"

AUGUSTA, Ga. – The 36-hole cut at the Masters is different than any other major championship. The 89-man field will be cut to the low 50 and ties after 36 holes is completed.

Thursday’s first round was suspended due to darkness after the start of play was delayed more than two hours by morning storms. The second round is expected to begin on schedule at 8 a.m., however.

The cut was first instituted in 1957, 23 years after the Masters began. The field was cut to the low 40 and ties from 1957-61, but the cut changed the next year with the institution of the 10-shot rule. From 1962-2012, the field was cut to the low 44 and ties, as well as anyone within 10 strokes of the leader.

Over the following seven years, the 36-hole cut was expanded to the low 50 and ties, as well as anyone within 10 strokes of the leader. The 10-shot rule was done away with in 2020, however, and now the low 50 and ties qualify for the final 36 holes at the Masters.
