Why small is (sometimes) better
Canadian travellers adore small group trips. That’s why many of us plan our next vacation on a river cruise or small group tour – like Member Choice Vacations’ Exploration series.
But why is small better? We’ve counted down four reasons why these group tours are growing in popularity.
1. It’s like travelling with family
Member Choice Vacations’ small group tours have less than 24 passengers (sometimes as few as 14). You’ll share the road, a few meals, and a variety of special moments with a small, tight-knit group of like-minded travellers. You’ll get to know everyone and make lasting friendships and memories.
2. Fewer people = more personal space
We all appreciate our personal space (now more than ever), which is why many travellers are going with small group departures. On a Member Choice Vacation’s Explorations tour, you won’t be one in a crowd of many with their Small Group Explorations; you’ll be an integral part of a cultural expedition.
3. Venture further off the beaten path
It’s easier to visit unique destinations and places further from the tourist hot spots if you’re travelling with just a few families. In addition to the iconic sights, you’ll get to spend quality time with the locals, taking classes and enjoying home-hosted meals for an authentic experience. Your local guides will happily show you around their hometown, giving you that personal touch.
4. Enjoy more hands-on experiences
On a Member Choice Vacations guided tour, you’ll do more than simply see a new place – you’ll get to experience it hands-on. Plus, you’ll have more time to enjoy new experiences (like joining a cooking class with a local chef) because you won’t have to wait in line for your turn.
