Outdoor and Nature Tours vs. Independent Travel: Pros and Cons

Before deciding to book a tour or handle the planning yourself, it's important to consider the aspects of each travel style.

Pros
  • Some outdoor activities and adventure sports are best enjoyed in a group.
Cons
  • Local guides know the best areas and the top rated activities.


Pros
  • Many people enjoy the peacefulness of nature, which is best enjoyed independently with a few friends or family.
  • Traveling independently means you'll be able to move at your own pace and enjoy the activities that mean the most to you.
Cons
  • If transportation is limited and you don't have your own vehicle, it can be hard to get outside the major cities and towns and truly enjoy nature.


Which is cheaper?

Is independent travel cheaper than guided outdoor and nature tours? The answer is not simple. Tours provide many of the services that you would otherwise pay for yourself on an independent trip. Hotels, transportation, food, entry tickets, guides, and activities are provided on organized tours, whereas you would pay for everything separately on your own. To deterine the difference in price, you would need to compare the combined price of everything in a tour with everything you would book separately. Sometimes you might want to stay in a cheaper hotel, or eat at a more expensive restaurant, so the price of a tour could be more or less than what you would otherwise pay on your own. Make sure you know what is included before making your comparison.

Also, before booking a tour, make sure you know exactly what is included as tour companies sometimes change their itineraries or included amenities to keep them updated with seasonal changes and customer interests.
