Going on holidays involves a lot of planning and if it involves a foreign tour that has a lot of nitty gritty to finalise before the actual holiday. Plenty of running around be for obtaining a passport, visa, ticket, hotel bookings and last but not the least drawing up an itinerary. All this can be avoided if planning is handed over to travel agents and choosing any of their tour packages.
Package holidays are in great demand these days. We too have gone on several package holidays and with good reasons. They take away the entire hassle right from getting us the tickets, obtaining our visas, accommodation in hotels of repute, ideal sightseeing choices and last but not the least providing a checklist of what we need to take with us as also a list of ‘do’s and don’ts’. There is always a travel agent representative that travels with the group and that makes a lot of difference. What is totally in our hands is choosing a right package.
1. Some like cold weather and some don’t. If one is planning to go to a country that has weather extremes it is important to pick the time.
2. Some packages are exclusively for vegetarians. It is important to first check about that.
3. There are categorywise packages – mountain climbers, nature lovers, shoppers and so on.
4. One needs to have a companion who has the same timings in that if one is a morning person and the other loves activities in the evenings this combination is deadly for holiday goers.
5. It is good to see the number of days that a package is for.
6. Some packages are only for certain communities
7. Having a look at the check list that the tour conductors provide and following everything that is listed in there strictly.
A well planned holiday can never go wrong.

Yes, holiday package must be chosen carefully and after too much tinkling, Planning a holiday trip is easy but implementing that plan is not that easy. While planning a trip one has to keep in mind a lot of things and has to put a lot of effort to ensure an enjoyable holiday.
Money is certainly the biggest factor. When you are taking your family on a trip you can’t hold them back all the time when they want to buy something, eat something and go places. But you can’t allow them to make nonsense spending as well.
You can’t force them to compromise with comfort and convenience while staying in hotels but you can’t afford to book five star hotels every venue as well. So what’s the way of ensuring a memorable holiday without putting too stress on the pocket. Well the answer is holiday packages.
The biggest advantage is cost saving. If you try to book everything, starting from airfare to hotel room on your own, you will surely end up spending unnecessarily. If you add the individual costs, the amount will be quite high, but if you choose a holiday package the total amount, which would include cost of everything, would be far lesser
By choosing a holiday package, you actually get rid of all activities, starting from booking flight tickets, checking out accommodation availability at hotels and booking rooms
Holiday packages are designed specially to cover all major spots in a place so that customers get best value for their money.
Companies that offer tour packages are completely aware of situations in a particular place, the risks and the safe zones and hence you can enjoy a safe holiday.
I agree with you. When we go on a conducted tour the agent's guide is with us and that is a nice feeling of safety
Indeed, package holidays are the way to go and can benefit in making us more planned in our Holidays.
I always go for self planned holidays, not packaged ones. The packaged holidays are for tourists not for travelers :)
The self planned holidays gives me a lot flexibility to avoid crowd, get economic travel tickets and lodging. Most importantly you can plan your way , destinations of your choice. This is possible with so much of travel reviews and experiences available on the internet, travel sites, apps etc.
