The public derives many advantages from packaged tours, the most obvious being the price.When airplane seats and hotel rooms are reserved in block by tour operators, considerable savinngs are passed on to the customers. These savings have been reflected in the last few years by the great increase in tourism. Many people would never travel at all without the price inducements offered by packaged tours.
A second advantage is the opportunity for the tourist to make all his travel arrangements in one place at one time. The independent traveler-one who does not travel as a member of a group-often has to go to considerable trouble to put the different pieces of his trip together.Airline seats may not be available when he wants ther or he may not be able to secure the hotel accommodations that he wants. Even when a travel agent makes the arrangements, these difficulties still exist, but with the packaged tour they are eliminated for the customer. The tour, in other words, offers convenience as one of its inducements.
A third advantage can be summed up in the term accessibility. Tours make it possible for people to visit many remote or rugged areas that would otherwise be difficult for them to try to see on their own. Tourists for example, now regularly go to archeological sites or into the jungles. In the past, only dedicated scientists would have undertaken the hardships of such a trip, but governments, local airlines and tour operators have made these and other places throughout the world accessible to the general public.
