Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The best way to travel is in a group led by a tour guide.
In our modern era, in general, people encounter many distressing and unsettling circumstances to the four winds. As a result, traveling gets more attention than that of the past for relaxation and as a way to get rid of your daily routine. However, People hold different views about their plans for the trip. Some people believe that a tour guide is the best choice for leading the trip, other people have the idea that they can enjoy the trip by managing on their own. As far as I am concerned, I disagree that the best way to travel is in a group led by a tour guide.
First of all, In this mechanized age, I believe that every people can do everything by leading themselves. With the advent of the internet, you can manage your trip without any help. For example, last year I went to Dubai for the first time. By using Google Maps I found every route for the special places in Dubai, in addition by surfing the net I got every piece of information that I need to visit and get around in places that were great for tourists. Therefore, with the growth of technology, you can take advantage of using the internet to do your trip well.
Secondly, privacy is really important to me. I prefer to be comfortable when I plan to travel. I would like to schedule and plan my trip in my way. When you travel in a group, you get restricted in time and place that your tour guide set and you lost your flexibility in your travel. For instance, my friend went to Turkey on a tour e a few months ago. He was telling that he missed some places that he wanted to visit because the travel plan is limited to some determined places. Moreover, my friend is an early bird, he gets up soon in the morning because he believes you can get much more done and your day is longer to spend your time, however, the tour guide planned some special hours a day that did not fit to his preference time. Thus, I believe travel in a group that is led by a tour guide is not be as desirable as you do it by yourself.
To sum up, I strongly disagree that the best choice for the travel is with a tour guide. With the technology advancement and the internet, you can manage and do anything you want on your trip. Besides, I believe people not be convenient if they limit by the framework that tour guides set for them
