What Is An Organised Tour? A Guide!

Organised tours refer to pre-planned travel packages designed by tour operators for groups of people who wish to explore a particular destination or engage in specific activities. These tours are managed and guided by experienced professionals who handle all the logistics, places, transportation, and activities, providing participants with a structured and hassle-free travel experience.

Here are some key aspects of organised tours:

1. Itinerary Planning:

Tour operators create detailed itineraries with various places, attractions, and activities based on the tour’s theme. Tour operator itineraries cover popular tourist spots and hidden gems you’d never known about otherwise. Organised Tours provide well-rounded experiences. WorldLee Journeys recommends tours with as many 2 or 3-night stays as possible for a more leisurely holiday.

2. Group Travel:

Organised tours are designed for a group of travellers, ranging from small groups to larger ones. Travellers can join these tours themselves or as part of a group, which allows them to meet and interact with like-minded people. You’ll have an instant social group and make new friends for life.

3. Professional Guides:

Tours are led by professional guides or tour leaders knowledgeable about the destination and its history, culture, and local customs. They provide insights and explanations throughout the trip, which enhances the overall experience.

4. Transportation and Accommodation:

Tour operators arrange transportation (flights, buses, etc.) and accommodation (hotels, lodges, etc.) as part of the package, ensuring convenience and comfort for the guests. The time, money, and stress this saves compared to DIY is invaluable.

5. Inclusions and Exclusions:

Organised tours typically have a clear list of inclusions and exclusions. Inclusions cover items like accommodation, transportation, meals, and entrance fees to attractions mentioned in the Itinerary. Exclusions may include activities, personal expenses, and some meals. There are many different Organised Tour Providers, and it can be challenging to know which to choose. WorldLee Journeys researches and compares the options to help clients choose the tour best suited to them.

6. Safety and Security:

Tour operators prioritise the safety of their participants and take measures to ensure a secure and enjoyable journey.

7. Themed Tours:

Organised tours can cater to various interests, such as cultural tours, adventure tours, wildlife safaris, culinary tours, historical tours, and more. WorldLee Journeys has 30+ years of experience in tailoring special interest group tours. Let us help you make your group tour idea a reality.

8. Booking and Payment:

Travellers can book these tours through WorldLee Journeys. Payment is usually made in advance via a deposit, and the final payment is paid closer to departure. There are many tours to choose from, but not all are created equal. Our job is to help our clients work through the options to select the right tour for them.

9. Flexibility:

While organised tours have fixed itineraries, some operators may offer optional add-ons or free time at certain destinations to allow participants to explore independently.

Organised tours can be an excellent option for travellers who prefer a guided experience, want to maximise their time at a place, or want to meet new people with similar interests. However, choosing a reputable tour operator with positive reviews and a track record of providing excellent service is essential.

What Our Clients Say

  • Fabulous Travel Agent, Always Has A Solution For Our Travels, And Now Particularly Through These COVID Times.

    Lee-Anne has been our agent now for many years. She helped us evacuate out of Buenos Aires when there was a national strike. Lee-Anne reorganized our bookings on Emirates for us to leave NZ in March 2020 just before the world locked down. She enabled us to fly into Paris (no rules broken) in September 2020 and since then as the European world has gradually reopened helped with our bookings for flights, cruises and even a private tour to Petra in late November this year. Even though we’re in France, still, Lee-Anne is also enabling us to support other small travel businesses in Australia. We wouldn’t consider using any other travel agent for our journeys. We feel that Lee-Anne understands our needs and works with us always for the best travel options.

    Anne B

  • We have had the pleasure of working with Lee-Anne planning trips and itineraries to various destinations of the past 18 years. Her knowledge has been invaluable to us. She has consistently taken care of every travel detail imaginable and is currently working on an extended European holiday for us. We have recommended Lee-Anne’s travel services to a number of family and friends who are now also her clients.

    The Francis Family

  • We’ve only recently started working with Lee-Anne for our family holidays. She made the whole process so easy. Several recommendations on how to put our holiday together were made based on her experience and we would never have thought of these on our own. The USA/Hawaii package she put together for us suited our teenage family perfectly. Lee-Anne went above and beyond to make sure everything was looked after. She will be the first call we make when we are ready to plan our next holiday.

    The Christensen Family

  • Lee-Anne Talbot is more than just a travel agent. Her knowledge and advice is invaluable, thinking of everything so you don’t have to. In times when Covid can change everything at any time. Having Lee-Anne on top of our travel plans has been invaluable. Thank you Lee-Anne, you will be my first call every time I travel.

    Mandy Giddings

  • Lee-Anne was recommended to us by our accountant after a bad experience booking online. Best decision we ever made. Lee-Anne encouraged us to do our own research online to compare with what she was able to offer us. Not only was she able to offer similar prices, hers were often better or included extras like breakfast or resort fees for the same price. The myth that online is cheaper for booking travel is completely untrue not to mention the financial risk you take with online travel companies not governed by Australian consumer protection laws. International holidays are expensive. Do yourself a favour, call Lee-Anne when you are planning your next trip. She will save you so much time and you’ll have peace of mind knowing your hard earned money is safe.

    Julie McCarthy

  • I’ve been booking group holidays for 30-75 people with Lee-Anne now for the past 8 years. We’ve been to Fiji, Perth, Hawaii, New Zealand, Thailand, Vanuatu, The Cook Islands and a cruise from Singapore. She is a trusted travel advisor, great listener and professional in everything she does. Not sure where I’d be without her assistance with my groups. Can thoroughly recommend.
